List Mgmt. Delisting and drafting is almost as fun as trading: The trade and draft megathread

[pessimisticoptimist]

I'm borrowing that to tweet.

tag the AFL in it and trade radio muppets too

Isnt he more likely to nominate the Dees to be closer to his mother?

Channeling too much Wellsy there mate! I would have gone with Port to be with his brother - Jack Watts!

 

[lewigie]

Eagles premiers 2018, to paraphrase Sticks "we are West Coast **** the rest."

Highly relevant during this trade period. That GF was a win for the ages and a win for every interstate team.

Gee whiz

Thought it was 5pm EDT

With Wellsy its always E(A)DT!

 

[lewigie]

Should be mandatory 3 year contracts on drafting, with maybe some kind of restriction on which clubs a player can choose to go to in that time - ie a state. Might help with all this "go home" stuff that Victorian players can't deal with

 

[HurleyHepsHird]

Of all the players who have nominated a club over this trade period..

Kelly is the only one who has a legitimate reason. And is the only one being stitched up by his crybaby club's unreasonable ransom.

Cooney sounding off earlier. What a campaigner.

 

[Bleedblueandgold]

Kelly isn't indigenous

Kelly, whose father is Aboriginal and mother is Chilean, was runner-up in this season’s Sandover Medal.

Can someone gimme a quick summary of the past ~25 pages?

Or is it just summed up in the thread title

 

[swingdog]

Looking beyond the cost in draft picks, another thing to consider is becoming a destination club for good, young indigenous players. You'd reckon a few of them and their families would be looking at Geelong (and the recent outflow of indigenous boys from there) and thinking twice. Whereas we've got a good core, have shown to be compassionate (if we get this done) and have good mentors like Lewis at the club.

Geelong won't deal because it will make the premiers better, have many appendages to consume.

Who else have they lost other than Christensen?

Cockatoo, Parfitt, Narkle, Jones all seem relatively happy there. I don't think this is an indigenous issue at all.

 

[Dazzler9]

Well, let's make us the destination club of choice for Chilean footballers.

Travis Varcoe and Motlop

Edit - but agree with you.

Fivey beaten on the details - one for the underdogs!

 

[Max zero]

I love how they talk about the big 3 trades left on trade radio: Beams, Shield and Kelly.

Then proceed to never talk about Kelly once.

Oh yeah those guys.

Cop that Fivey you spoon.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

If we get Kelly we should rest him when we beat them in Geelong round 1 next year

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Cop that Fivey you spoon.

You'll still vote for me for POTY right?

 

[paran]

So why no angst over Shiel and Beams nominating clubs? This Kelly stuff is beyond extreme. Is it 'cos he's a rookie?!

 

[LittleGreekGod]

I actually did. Thinking of taking it back now...

It’s practically 100% because of the way his manager worded his statements. His manager has tainted the whole situation. But Geelong’s list managers have acted worse

 

[Yippy Yi Yeo]

Sounds like 5pm EDT.

Do you know which channel it is? Doesn't seem to be on fox footy
