List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade and FA

One more target then grab picks, shut up shop and grab some new talent
List spots tight so get rid of all those not seriously considered for the 1s

Could Marshall and McStay play in the same forward line? Is it a plan to cover the possible retirement of Mihocek?

Doesn't Marshall have concussion issues?

 

[Apex36]

true but he has still been made to wait which isnt the best sign

I think lots of players from lots of clubs have been made to wait this year. Plenty of clubs are making room for the draft and there could be some decent delisted free agents available. If that happens then we might have a few delisted to make way for one or two.

And a shocking contract

 

[Stripes B and W]

I am not sure if Ed Allen is a Dunkley like mid

Doubt Ed will never be a tough lock on player against comp best players if required or have enormous overhead strength.
I'd hope he would have burst speed and a better kick thank Dunkley.
Worth noting Dunkley played almost every game he was available for in his first season in a premiership year, Ed is that far off that they ought not really be compared.

Wouldn’t it have been harsher not to have taken him though

Not really?

Because we could have easily said the injury had nothing to do with why we didn’t take him

What do we tell him now?

“Hey, look, we didn’t even give you a chance to even establish yourself after a half season injury, but still we’re going to delist you because we don’t think you’re good enough. Even though we thought you were good enough 6 months ago despite your injury”

I’m mostly in agreement this year.

Feels like, from what’s out there now, it’s just doing deals for the sake of it.

So unless a target comes up….im all for just improving our picks and taking them to the draft (no more than 3) this year.

If a solid target comes up, then by all
Means do what we can.

You think because we gave him an opportunity when he was injured for half the season we owe him a second regardless? I dont understand your thinking at all tbh

Uh oh Tom Morris starting to link us to Houston

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

One of my favourite parts of Trade Radio is the annual tradition of bringing on one of the no-name players who literally just got delisted. The conversation will invariably involve said no-name player (having played 3 senior games across 5 years) talking about how he's got plenty more to offer, he just needs another chance, he's happy to move anywhere to continue playing AFL. The conversation will always include a reference to how it was somehow a surprise he got delisted despite spending the year in the twos or in the rehab group.

The no-name player is subsequently never heard from again besides the odd cash in hand job playing for Cygnet Football Club or the like.

I wonder if Mitch Hardie is smart enough to be aware of the vaunted niche he has now found himself in.

I'd just tell him he's not going to get a game and that his spot is at risk. It's not local footy. Hasn't really shone. Really poor when he came back from injury. The club would have hoped to see something in him.

 

[HFF]

If we get our hands on 12 I’d like to take it to the draft and give our recruiters something to work with.
That’s just my preference

Blues won’t let him get to us they will cough up

Doesn’t even need to be that.
The convo at the start of the year would be “you have 1 year. After that, absolutely no guarantees.”

If he’s delisted, it’s simply “sorry, the chips didn’t fall your way.”

North bound is his safest bet really.

Legit can’t tell if you’re being serious

So we recruit him despite a long term injury because we liked what we saw prior to the injury but then don’t give him the opportunity to actually get back to that?

What?

 

[Piewithsauce13]

Agreed. Still can’t see the blues letting this one go.

12 will be something like pick 15 or more.
Still a lottery but apparently many good kids to choose. If we cannot land a big name well yes, choose a kid.
Jack Whitlock should be available around that pick.

What?

We liked him better than the other SPP’s we didn’t select, he was one of or possibly the very the last player added to our list? (Not including mid season draft)

I just think we need to give our recruiters something to work with after years of trading out.

We have some good talent watchers at our club who can find us a player or two

Scratcher looks like Noddy Holder from Slade

I was trying to remember the other one, I thought it may have been Nankervis but Scratcher was the one, thx.

This is good. Let’s no sit still!
