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

[Magpie Since 1986]

Definitely agree with everyone here saying we should sign Membrey. He is great depth for a position we sorely need coverage for. Even if he isn't best 23 (which he might be ) , one of Cox , McStay, Checkers even Elliot is always injured , we want to avoid the disastrous position we were in mid season this year where we were forced to play AJ and Kruger as we had nobody else .

 

[PIEWITHSAUCE]

Why would u keep Johnson over Reef? Utterly ridiculous

Purely contract based I imagine

 

[Cousin of Daicos]

I think Krueger and Reef will be delisted and AJ put on the rookie list

I’d be staggered if we kept Ash over Reef

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

 

[Soups]

I hoping we could potentially raid some of the Tigs picks in the 20s with a bundle of ours. I don't think they take every single pick.

Trying to take on so many kids this year and develop them all is going to be a tough ask. Hope they all end out like Tambling.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

McGuane

Well... We might be in a bit of strife here.

 

[cfc19902010]

Missed a few games as well this year. Great pick up if we get him

Definitely membrey

No other key forward key position depth

 

[Jen2310]

Well... We might be in a bit of strife here.

12 months is a long time in footy, I imagine he'll take the next step in his draft year. He'll prob end up between 10-12
As long as he is around that range in the first round, we'll be fine. Unless we have a poor year lol But finals bound and wont be an issue.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

It’s possible Robertson isn’t on a list any longer than Membrey or Tomlinson so the age demographic shouldn’t come into it. Who ever helps more next season should be only conference with these type of pick ups.

Maybe but it’s academic now. I think having landed Houston we should raise our eyes a little and look beyond 2025 if practical.

 

[manicpie]

I wouldn't old kap, but AJ is contracted

 

[BillyElliott]

Nah. They're like us. They look after their players. Long term benefits over one deal. Who would you prefer to work for the club who locks Petracca in the contract dungeon and won't let him leave or the team who makes the best out of departures.

This was all really in response to a poster saying it's a good thing the Houston deal was done yesterday before the Bolton deal. I'm glad it was too.

Keeping him was just the other option they had. Whether that was a good thing or not, I wasn't really commenting on.

 

[Aussie pie]

I’d be staggered if we kept Ash over Reef

I wouldn’t be, AJ has shown he can play that third tall role but he’s had to play the only tall. Yes he’s got a lot of flaws but lots of flair as well. Reef just doesn’t have it despite the BF community refusing to see it.

 

[Jen2310]

Not really a choice. One is contracted.
I wonder if they are thinking we should have let him go last year when he had interest.

Reef is easily the better of the two.

 

[celestial]

I personally think we need tomlinson more than membrey. Having an additional experienced defender as a backup is crucial. God forbid something happens to Darcy Moore

, wouldn't want someone like dean and Frampton as the main KPD.

I reckon if we were wanting to keep Ash we wouldn’t be looking at Membrey

 

[LuckyLee]

Why would u keep Johnson over Reef? Utterly ridiculous

Somewhat agree, although:
Ash has a contract and has kicked 36 goals in 27 games
Reef doesnt have a contract and has kicked 19 goals from 20 games.

 

[gouki88]

Why would u keep Johnson over Reef? Utterly ridiculous

Potentially just due to contract timing? That's all I can think of

 

[sr36]

Why would u keep Johnson over Reef? Utterly ridiculous

Johnson is contracted.

 

[Bianconeri]

Maybe but it’s academic now. I think having landed Houston we should raise our eyes a little and look beyond 2025 if practical.

I think landing Houston give us even more reason to try and capitalise on the now rather than leave holes on our list for the sake of the future.

 

[TheVillageIdiot7]

I would put Reef on the rookie list too, and I'd be pretty ruthless with the guys currently on there - Eyre, Bytel, Sullivan, Long all gone. Would rather take a look at some other guys than persist with them.

I think our depth is looking strong with Houston and Perryman walking straight in to best 18 spots guaranteed, so I wouldn't be bothering with these mature age rookies.

It's a deep draft, even late pings are more worth taking than these NQR guys in their 20s.

You may be onto something here.
But not necessarily as a late ping this year.

If it's a deep draft, then it stands to reason there will be talent left unselected (more than most drafts).
So it might be beneficial to bring some down to SSP trial (rather then keep the current ones).
Also next year MSD may actually be worth making sure we're in for the same reason.

Extending that thought out a year, there may be a few that have improved next year as 19 year olds and are worth taking late in the draft / SSP next year.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

Need to keep an eye out on Rylee Sanders next year.

 

[Kappa]

Johnson is contracted.

So? delist him and offer Reef a contract.

Are people forgetting how terribly AJ played this year? He is the worst over 25 player in the AFL

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

Why would u keep Johnson over Reef? Utterly ridiculous

Have a think why.

 

[manicpie]

Johnson is contracted.

I tried to tell him but old kap needs the stress relief
