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

Clearly we don’t have Leppa at the club for his looks. But he seems to be delivering in other areas.

The Houston trade is very nice.

But to be greedy - who’s next?

I think Membrey would be decent

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

"So close to being a Roo"

Yeah this is a flat out lie

 

[Pistol Night]

Dan Houston is not indigenous unless he's actively keeping it a secret.

Im only going off an indigenous team they picked in 2022 that included him. My apologies

Let's cut Freos lunch and turn those third round picks into Shai Bolton.

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

Now who can come up with a plan to turn our 3 picks in the 50s into Carlton’s pick 3?

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

 

[The Royal Sampler]

Can we trade for pick 50?

Too pricey. Better off trading for a first-rounder instead. GC are giving them away like Oprah gives out cars.

 

[Kes1984]

I don’t want to be too greedy, but I would love to somehow get one more deal done now.

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Officially official

 

[Pedro]

Yeah this is a flat out lie

It probably was close, until someone asked Houston and his manager about it and were told to fukc off

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

The stick worked

 

[piesforlife]

Since it doesn’t seem possible for us to get a decent Murphy replacement for next season ( I don’t think tomillison would offer any more than frampton)

Is there any chance Mcstay could thrive as a full back? He’s a good contested marker that doesn’t kick bags anyway, Moore can play his preferred role again.

Then partner Mihocek with one of membrey/hayes/krueger/day/ who I think can all potentially give the same amount of goal production as mcstay up forward.

 

[TradeDraft]

We have a Houston, Noble and Richards depart

Collingwood has today welcomed Dan Houston in a three-way trade with Port Adelaide and the Gold Coast SUNS.

I hear they like brown paper bags. Perhaps we could give them some.

 

[Apex36]

For their sake would hope this kid is better than Houston! I’m pretty confident he won’t be, at least not for 5+ years

With their drafting record I’d be confident that he won’t be for his entire career.
Statistically they’re far more likely to get a middling player like Murphy or Gibbs or even a spud like Dow than they are to get a genuine star.

 

[Apex36]

I’d give Gold Coast an A+

They dumped two players weighing down their cap, added JFN and improved their draft hand next year with two future first rounders.

Honestly media commentators have no clue. GC made out like bandits and they’re given the worst mark

 

[lones37]

So now that is done, after becoming all Australian last year, Houston asked to renegotiate his contract, he is on $600 a year. Power said no.

Then recruited Esava at $750, you can imagine how this went down with CSM and the Houston camp. So earlier this year they asked again, and were rejected again. So they did the deal to go to Melbourne, except Melbourne imploded.

Given Tracs manager is the same as Houstons, he bailed on the deal, having knowledge of what is going on at Melbourne. And then asked to be traded to Carlton or us, whoever could do the deal, which is why he didn't nominate. Carlton don't have the cap space, they need to sign TDK next year as everyone is after him as a free agent.

Now we have him for 6 years, and can front end him to make up what he feels he is worth, which is much more than what he was on at Port.

So they had their chance, twice, and didn't take it, and he is going to be our best acquisition in many years.

Unrelated to that, Butters is gettable next year, club/s are already into him, I am sure you can guess which club that might be, and I think he will leave, which should send Port supporters into total meltdown again.

This is the link to a site and may be the one PN was talking about. Says Dan is indigenous for what it is worth

It's not a bad idea. McStay is a very good main marking target up forward though. Membrey and Hayes can't play that role (Hayes cant be relied on as a starter in any role). We'd need someone who's good one on one and also mobile enough to get from contest to contest.

I'm just hoping we can have McStay and Mihocek play together most of the season. Reckon they're a strong forward combo.

 

[celestial]

Brisbane have pick 34 (542 points).
Our three picks in the 50's (623 points)

That plus Krueger , see if we can swing a trade to get dev + 34 .

Use 34 plus another player to get up towards mid 20's .

 

[Bianconeri]

nah I think the deals fine, it’s just that the Rioli trade is so batshit crazy that it’s skewed everyone’s perception of what players are worth

The difference is Gold Coast had leverage over us in the Houston trade. Richmond didn’t have any deals relying on the Rioli trade and could hold out until they got what they want.

 

[Kes1984]

So are we still getting Trac or what?

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

Pls no Perryman

 

[Chameleon75]

Smh Dan won’t even be available Rd 1 as he will still be serving his suspension.

So annoyed this trade went through now

we’re appealing

Is Butters out of contract at the end of next year?
