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

[76woodenspooners]

What list would have weathered the injuries we suffered this year? Does it exist?

Be that as it may, do you expect it to be any better in 2024?

Aging lists tend to get less durable, not more.

Yes, I do? It was bizarrely bad, and we have had a much more substantial rest period going into '25.

It’s a strange narrative the media is pushing really. It’s like they decided to tack “he’s still upset about missing the grand final” on to the reasons he’s leaving despite the man himself saying he has no hard feelings and is happy to stay at the pies if a suitable trade can’t be made.

I heard he’s still upset about the way Benioff and Weiss wrapped up with season 7 of Game Of Thrones. Understandable really.

If Dan Houston trade happens be in Final Hour of Trade Period

You said the Perryman deal wouldn't get done before the Copeland ...

I'd hope & think this Houston deal gets done quicker & earlier than in the last hour with so many players/clubs involved.

 

[Piewithsauce13]

I know I’m biased, but if you were Dan, wouldn’t you prefer to join a team that’s going the extra mile to bring you in and recognises your value over Carlton? It’s clear we’re putting in the effort and truly want you here.

 

[unplugged]

Interesting GCS are expecting the Rioli trade to drag out into next week. Assume that means they'll wait and see what they get for Bolton, Baker etc. first to see if they can trade 6 for Rolling and something else.

The benefit of noble and Richards requesting their respective clubs is that it has put us first in queue to negotiate for our desired returns. Thank God for that

Collingwood socials team look like they’re preparing for a big recruit (Houston). It’s a small thing to notice, but just judging by their activity it looks like something is coming.

Let's hope our play for Houston doesn't crash and burn.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

It's going about as slow as some of the people that post here.

Now I'm sad. It's hard being manic

How so?

It’s not a full team sheet, but it’s the skeleton of a handy one …

Many on the Blues board are resigned to the Pies getting Houston and are pointing to the fact that a Pies player is going to GCS as part of trade for pick 13 and another Pies player is headed to Port as part of the trade for Houston.

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Ralphy absolutely not coping with our Noble demands hahahahah

You’d think we’d asked the Suns to on-trade Dan Rioli to us for him.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Me if Houston makes it to Collingwood

I’d expect it to drag out purely based on the fact that the Richmond list management are acting like spoiled brats.
6+13 for Rioli? 6 alone is way OTT generous, so if they’re going to be like that they can get to the back of the queue.
Yes I understand we’re asking for overs for Noble too, but at least we’re being semi-reasonable about it too, adding in our future first rounder in a package deal.

 

[Tadpole]

If I were any slower, I'd be going backwards.

Agree, my personal opinion is I’m gutted he’s gone, and his treatment from the club left a lot to be desired last year.

He earned it for sure but there’s always a hard luck story of someone missing. We need blokes like JFN, Murphy is the other that left it all out there, they’ll be missed IMHO

What do you mean by handy? Because that would easily be the worst forward line in the competition!

would take me about 3 hours to get to the blues board with this server lag

 

[celestial]

Between Bolton and rioli, who would you say is more valuable?

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

I reminded a few to just give Leppa a chance before criticising & comparing him to past years & list managers. If he can get the Houston deal done..I'd say he's a freaking genius.
