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

[Apex36]

Sam has only just come out of his self harm episode over Dan Houston. He is now busily deleting tweets and trying to come up with rebuttals to SEN callers who will be calling up to remind him that he is a flog....

Yes, but are Carlton still a chance for Houston?

 

[Pistol Night]

Was it because you couldn't see the display?

Yeah because i closed my eyes and jumped off quickly

 

[Pistol Night]

When hes 34 and won 3 flags with us we might grant him his childhood wish to play for his grassfoots, shit footy club

We really need a Sam Edmund tweet to unify us at the minute

Nah we just need to draft a couple of Hine smokies, typically 5'10" half back flankers who haven't come through any sort of elite Aussie Rules junior pathway, while other teams pick up all the KPP talent you can poke a stick at. That will get the board humming along again for sure.

I sense a "best available at the pick" brewing instead of a KPF

 

[Hardas]

That Owies, we let a good one go there

 

[Pistol Night]

And we want Richards next year.

Leppa playing 4D chess. Did we draft Ben Reid all those years ago to get Harley down the track?

 

[VinnieB]

I don't think anyone suggested he should be moved to defence. It was a random post at best

Did I kick it off when I mentioned Membrey played some games down back?

Anyway, I think it's a smart move bringing him in, even if it's for depth.

We're going tall with 188cm Membrey. Dekka's ticked off tall. He's now off to find some kids who aren't good enough to be part of an elite pathwayv- unless it was in anothre sport.

I hear there's a 24yo Norwegian curling sweeper that Dekka has identified as a top midfield prospect. Somehow he slipped though the traditional pathways. If he doesn't make the grade hes a great cleaning option around the club

Dekka sees great versatility. He'll start off sweeping, with the potential to transition to a dustpan.

The random post was the other way around, checkers to play defence

 

[TradeDraft]

FFS! How long until the draft?

Another Month

I think it began with that and then I quoted you saying that Checkers and mcStay have played defence too.

And suggesting that rather than picking up a depth forward and a depth kpd they may feel that just one gives us a dpeth options at both ends.

 

[sr36]

Membrey means we NEVER should play Billy up forward again. Hopefully having a defined role will do him good. There was a period in early 2024 when Billy was our top defensive stopper.

I think Billy means we should never play Billy up forward again.

What I love about the Perryman/Houston acquisitions is CFC have acquired two exceptionally skilled utility footballers.

And, I'm of similar opinion to others on BF, it would be great to see some tall talent come through the door....I really like the Burgemeister, Nicholls and Stumpf.

I would also like to see some additional speed and skill come in, either/or Rys Unwin, Archer Day - Wicks and Will Hayes

Multiple players found. Use birthday to differentiate. eg [PLAYERCARD="23/11/1962"]Joe Smith[/PLAYERCARD]

Rookies: Personally, I like Keighton Matofai-Forbes and Waylon Davies - Motlop

You just like those rookies for their names.
Do they play footy?
Do they actually exist?

I'm a fan of what Leppa said the other day when referring to getting some tall depth - they like to use blokes as battering rams. I think Dekka's project talls over the years haven't gotten anywhere near it because he's favoured athleticism, whereas the late guys who do make it tend to be battering rams.

For that reason, I hope we don't take Stumpf who reads like a Dekka tall rather than a battering ram.

 

[Gabbo64]

Border Collie?

I'm definitely bored of broccoli.

They certainly exist and talented too!

I reckon we should be looking at Lou Carman-Ablett-Carey-Daicos-Jesulinko-Skilton-Barassi

Maybe Cumberland can ease your pain.

 

[NMBB]

He can join Pendles - we'll have 2' double agents deep in the bowels of ...

Now you're just teasing me. You know I want Noah

Just curious, who in our team would you call a battering ram? McStay or maybe Frampton?
