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

[Exambolor]

He talks straight, love Mighty Mick, plus his bloodline will continue into a second generation.

Also a very underrated member of the media Mick, his articles always are good insight

In 2027, the average AFL player salary will be 519K - which is 34% higher than in 2022. That is the last year of the CBA but the TV deal apparently has 5% annual escalation so you would expect that to flow through the next CBA at the very least.

So another way of looking at it, $1.8M in 2027 AFL salary dollars is worth about $1.34M in 2022 dollars.

Every chance we are still well set up for free agency top shelf players in the next couple of years.

Daicos's, JDG, Moore would all be on unders compared to industry average

Free agents in general I don’t doubt, but the most expensive ever is a different story. I’d be chuffed if proven wrong, but at it stands it is hard to imagine we could find the room for one that will be almost impossible to extract anyway.

Huge relief they got all the heavy lifting out of the way yesterday and we get the chance to enjoy a bruise free final day mocking all the plebs trying to get their insignificant little trades done.

 

[Sweeetleftfoot]

Well get Membrey for free anyway. Robertson I can take or leave. Owies is the one that really hurts

No love for Cumberland ?

 

[Crazy Tails]

Leppa on Trade Radio has just said that we are done for the Trade Period

Nice work Leppa. I can get back to life now.

Bobby can go back to WA after we win 2 more premierships for Harley Reid.

 

[dick_naicos]

Lmao that muppet…

Why are we taking fan accounts as sources

It wasn’t the source of what I heard but corroborated it. Again, I’m happy to be wrong and hope I am. Have heard well hear about it after 2pm.

Is that because we can’t drop him from our VFL team into obscurity, never to been heard from again.

Always but the powers at Collingwood just don't know talent when they see it, lol. There's still the PSD, I hope

Long every day of the week. And twice on Sundays. He is younger and a bigger body than Sully. I often see Pendles coaching him onfield. Reckon Pendles has taken him under his wing. He will be a good player

Long is slow and Fumbly and disposal ain’t good
However he’s big and his pressure tackling and intent is good

Project player

 

[Eric Shin]

Since we are good at stealing potential recruits from other clubs, why not double down?

The Giants keeping Derksen this year might be a blessing in disguise. Why not get in his ear now and try to lure him when he’s out of contract next year?

Might only cost us a late 2nd/early 3rd.

Talk of LDU is absolute pie in the sky with the deals for Houston and Perryman plus the impending re-contracting of Maynard and Hill.

The only caveat is of course someone like Noble this year requesting a move. The catch is I’m not convinced it would be popular on here to land LDU if it meant sacrificing say IQ.

They’ll need to in order to pay the 95% cap floor.

The hard nosed list manager in me thinks this would be excellent business.

Our backline is now absolutely stacked. Take two first round picks for Quaynor and bring in the free agent.

Good for list balance, good for the now and good for the future.

That little bastard will kick 40 goals for WC, no game plan or accountability there

Even tho he’s ok
Glad we never got owies

Giving our supporters the bird doesn’t sit well

 

[Horaceg]

Serious question who’s playing the token ginger role?

 

[BigVic]

The Houston trade looks like a masterstroke

Fumbly hands will (should) improve. A young, big bodied inside mid is what we need

Will be projecting himself in the Mallee and district Football league

 

[Apex36]

Why is everyone saying Dev nominated us?

Did he actually? I can't find it anywhere or heard it

He didn’t and we aren’t pursuing him, Leppa comfirmed.

Makes sense from a list management perspective but I think we’ll struggle to get two firsts for Quaynor after sport struggled to get that for Houston.

 

[lyfsux]

You've still got your training wheels on. TradeDraft has ~153,000 posts. Stop being so bloody lazy.

In all fairness to Apex though he hasn't got a Apex thoughts thread has he

….or our supporters giving the bird to one of our own

I couldn’t deal with it, the internal conflict

 

[Horaceg]

It’s a good spot for him, distance wise

 

[Football God]

Anything of substance ?

• No more trades coming in
• Membery will have a medical at the club.
• Club is backing Fin for next season saying everyone doesn’t have a fast start to their career.
• Coaches will discuss more on Tomlinson after the trade period.

The link of the podcast will be up soon. I’ll post it or someone will.

 

[Ugene41]

Only way I could see that happening is with a major exodus (including Maynard), which would be ... not good

You would backend it though for 3-4 years time when JDG/Moore/Maynard are 32/33 and no longer commanding peak contracts. Apart from Daicos, we don't have many under 25s that will command big contracts so we can use that talent gap to attract a FA in that age bracket.
