List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

[Jen2310]

Tom Morris said that we have come late for Perryman, but Port have had the most interest and for longer.

 

[Jen2310]

So who the tall/s we chasing to Replace them?

Its not about replacing them. Its more about having list spots for the draft.

 

[manicpie]

It was said Reef, Kreuger, Dean (not sure why dean is includ as he's on the rookie list) have been told they have to wait til post trade period

Thanks jen, I can understand why they'd do that. We need to get the off season right and it doesn't necessarily mean they are gone

 

[manicpie]

There's a few. The Whitlock twins, Faull and Sims would probably be on the radar

 

[sr36]

He wants to play out his career as an AFL midfielder which he can't do at GWS and he would also find it hard at Port. Butters Rozie and JHF are all younger and better established than him as midfielders.
While at Collingwood he will be competing against Mitchell (31 with foot injuries), Pendlebury (37), Sidebottom (34), Crisp (31), Daicos and a non established Allan. We can pretty much guarantee him a primary midfield spot.

Good point: If he's willing to wait a year for it, you'd think he'd get an opportunity to show what he's got through there.

No it doesn't.
This happens every year. Some players in limbo until after trade. Just have to keep options open given the depth of the draft.

This trade period has me intrigued.

Perryman is on record as saying money isn't his driving factor, he simply wants more midfield time.

It would be refreshing for a player to just say they're moving for money. The industry obviously believes that the public wouldn't accept that reason - I think they're underestimating us and all but a few would be fine with it and those who won't be aren't fine with them moving for other reasons either - unless it's to their club.

 

[BEEG]

Any inside info beeg, I'm getting desperate. Anything will do

Pretty quiet, haven't heard any more on Stringer apart from Collingwood had decided against him and that Sydney is the only real option, they won't decide until season is done.

Things could change, Stringer hasn't done himself any favours from what I heard.

It would be refreshing but unfortunately the footy public view the act of calling out a players name on draft night a binding for life and that that player is indentured in perpetuity. Consequently any player leaving the club that initially drafted them is seen a violent traitor that threatens the very legitimacy of the sport.

So players have to come up with better reason than just money to quell the masses.

 

[Hardas]

Pendles said last night that he is gonna come back in the best shape he's ever been in, to be as fit as he has been in 20 years, so give 2025 one last shot.

He was dominating games before that arm injury, so he still has it,.

 

[Hardas]

This trade period has me intrigued.

Among other things!

 

[manicpie]

The red carpet had me up and about

Is a senior player wanting to play a different role a better reason? Like money, it seems to be solely about personal gain from the move and actually could be viewed as being a bit more petty and self centred than money and the angle of setting up your family could be portrayed.

It's the little things that brings us joy

Who been Longer does not really mean anything on a Choice

Guess missing our Early Targets brought Perryman into the Conversation

We will find out just how serious he is about midfield minutes vs the cash and length on offer.

I think Perryman is Victorian, hopefully he'd rather come back home

 

[sr36]

Me too. Should we pay the Perryman? Can he get us to the other side?

Just checked out the rest of the lyrics. We're getting him, but somehow Jon Doritich is involved:

In the rolling mist then he gets on board
Now there'll be no turning back
Beware that hooded old man at the rudder

You don't always need to 'beware the hooded man', but it's a good rule of thumb.

 

[Jasper84]

Has anyone made a joke about Perryman and Don't Pay The Ferryman yet? I've got a really good one.

 

[Jen2310]

He's from NSW and came through their academy

Blame Leppa. He's giving us nothing. All we have to talk is shit. At least Wrighty gave us shithouse deals to argue about.

He's from the Riverina near Wagga.
