I think the disconnect between the ITKs (Treekay and Chewy) and those disagreeing here is it’s hard to believe the club when it feels like a “boy who cried wolf” situation. The club has always been weak when it comes to trading, but now the club wants us to believe they were trying to be Mr. Tough Guy? (and they weren’t)
Davies also came out again this year with his “not trying to win trades” speeches. Most of us don’t know what happened with Houston, so it’s also hard to judge the club’s decision when we’re missing a big chunk of the story here.
It’s very easy for most of us to see it as the club taking the easy way out again and being Mr. Nice Guy. It’s hard to believe anything the club says when they try talk themselves out of everything.
Burgoyne was before the current regime, I wouldn’t include him in this.Port got appropriately compensated for the losses of Burgoyne, Polec and Wingard. At the time I was furious to trade Polec and Wingard but the club got it right.
I'd suggest the worst trade blunder in the clubs' history is not moving Lobbe to Footscray for pick 11 which I think became Charlie Curnow.
Yes, Gold Coast are generally terrible at trading and list management but it was Collingwood who didn’t pay a fair price.
Collingwood never had enough to give and shouldn’t have been in the running for Houston at all.
I’ve said for years that we’ve always shown a soft underbelly
When rich says they need a pick or no deal , why doesn’t port have the capacity to say the same thing?
The only thing separating them are a willingness to stand fast.
Burton might be soft and lazy but he is undoubtedly AFL standard and a bloody good player when he’s on.Criminal to cut Scully and keep Burton, Atkins, McIntee, Williams and Boak on the list…
And I like Williams and Boak!
Burgoyne was before the current regime, I wouldn’t include him in this.
No offence, Waspy, but you think last year’s Soldo and Esava deals were good, so we should leave it there.
It’s also worth mention North had to give up that 1st that year because of a Taryn Thomas bid. So that was an easy deal for both.
Yep.Weak club
Simples
Sam Weideman?Would we look at anyone in the DFA ?
With Boak staying, how many list spots do we need to free up from here, presuming we use the 4 meaningful picks, Barrett needs to be taken in the ND and we take the father-sons?
Delist F.Evans, McIntee, Burton, Atkins, Narkle and Williams before tossing Charleson, please. Let alone Scully!Criminal to delist K Marshall or Scully. Both had injury issues, and 200+cm teenagers take time to develop.
So keep them on the list and see how they track next season.
Delist Narkle, F Evans, Charleson and McEntee. Mac would be on minimal wages, so we should be able to manage his payout within the salary cap rules.
Even Clurey…Delist F.Evans, McIntee, Burton, Atkins, Narkle and Williams before tossing Charleson, please.
K Marshall isn't up to the level and never will be.Criminal to delist K Marshall or Scully. Both had injury issues, and 200+cm teenagers take time to develop.
So keep them on the list and see how they track next season.
Delist Narkle, F Evans, Charleson and McEntee. Mac would be on minimal wages, so we should be able to manage his payout within the salary cap rules.
Boak playing on is another list management error, the fact there isn't the depth to cover him is alarming.
Boak was good this season.
Cant believe they didn't give him a chance to play with his brother coming over from the West.Denver Granger barrass has just been delisted from hawks, absolutely worth a look at for us.

Yeah he had a really bad prelim, like many.Was better than last year though he still butchers the ball way too much. He's always going to work his arse off though on and off the field, so his value extends beyond what happens on gameday.
That prelim final in particular however, was horrific with all the turnovers.
