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

Oliver’s reputed issues have frightened off other clubs. If Geelong think they can ‘fix’ him, then good luck to them. But I wouldn’t be confident of that.

Sure, they can provide a disciplined, successful and supportive club environment - but so did Melbourne until recently.

This may be the point at which Geelong’s arrogance tips over into delusion.

I really hope this is their undoing. They do everything so well

 

[Tadpole]

I hope if he does stay at Port, the Blues know it's because Perryman chose us over Port.

That would be the icing on the cake.

My favourite kind of cake - the Carlton Shafter.

 

[Tadpole]

I'm beginning to think you're really not into Carlton, EM.

Whatever gave you that idea?

This may be the point at which Geelong’s arrogance tips over into delusion, and their first major misstep in a long time.

Oliver is still a gun. Even with all the crap of this year, he still played 21 good games. If the Cats get him they will likely be paying unders. Sadly, he will be a great get if it comes off.

It would take a lot of doing given Oliver’s massive contract and Cats’ trade hand.

Almost a perfect scenario if he stays after signalling he wants to leave. Him and Petracca can spend one more season together hating each other.

Free agency window today

No?

You seem to think I said he was a superstar

What did you think of his ability to cover the ground in those games you watched? My take is he was on the slow side when he entered the league which is to say he was ruck paced as a FWD/ ruck. After his injuries he was slow for a ruck.

He got cut because he can’t compete as a KPP and he’s done. If we brought him in he would be back of the queue at both ends of the ground and I’d rather we have an 18yo in that position on the depth chart.

The circumcised penis with stick in hand has really become an icon of the trade period.

Fair enough

Just thought he might be worth a shot if we could get his body right

I think I'm wanting to basically take on anyone because I see just about everyone as an upgrade on Bytel, Sullivan and Long

 

[Brad Goodman]

What about his 8 games in 3 years for 9 goals screams “desirable” to you?

Well there was that one time he had that half decent game against us…

 

[The Phantom]

Get the Perryman thread warmed up, Dave the Man.

 

[Anzacday]

Get the Perryman thread warmed up, Dave the Man.

I think the plan is to change this one to a “Welcome”
We just have to act surprised when it’s announced

Happy page 1111 everyone

 

[thommo_legend]

Has Gary Lyon gone on TV crying that Oliver won't be traded, he'll be at Melbourne next year, etc.?

The fact he hasn't (as far as I know) tells you plenty.

He has this morning on SEN

 

[Horaceg]

Joe Richards and pick 12 should get it done.
Next year's first and Richards preferably.
Dunno. I'm no expert. Just having a stab in the dark.

Ask your fat Dad or just ask him for a favour

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Me on the Collingwood website waiting for all the Perryman content to appear

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Happy page 1111 everyone

Just fist pumped at the bus stop.

I must say I am quite enjoying the latest developments in the Oliver saga, with Edmund believing that Melbourne is pulling out of trade engagements. Looking forward to some insightful words from their vaunted leaders at their B&F tonight

 

[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.

**** me, now it's Cooper Hamilton and Curtis Taylor.

 

[Crazy Tails]

**** me, now it's Cooper Hamilton and Curtis Taylor.

I actually thought Curtis Taylor had a lot of talent. Quite surprised North showed him the door. He played really well against us this year. If our list spots weren’t so tight I wouldn’t mind him as DFA. 24yo, 76 games. Think our style of game would suit him too as a tallish HF/wing. Eventually take over from WHE. Won’t happen though due to list spots.

Ironically, I think that game signified more that we didn't need Grundy. A million dollar player getting touched up by a rookie was a bad look.
