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

[manicpie]

Well some bread and butter knives tomorrow would be nice but it’s been a great trade period for the Pies.

Pretty sure we'll get Robertson and Membrey as well

That would be nice.

 

[gouki88]

it’s a problem we can park for a year. I’m happy back in frampton Eyre and even Reef if he’s able to reinvent himself. With Houston joining our defence that will free up Maynard to play kpp in a case of emergency break glass situation. And bring somebody else in to rookie list of needed who isn’t a washed up 30 year old that wasn’t much good in the first place.

Given Eyre, Dean and Reef are all uncontracted, I think there’s a bit to play out.

Tomlinson isn’t great, but he’s a solid rebounder and overhead who can run all day. I would prefer Dean but don’t mind Tomlinson as depth, both over Eyre for me

Membrey would be more than handy with the way we play. At worst hes good VFL cover for Checkers or McStay

 

[Visions]

Collingwood's social media team absolutely slacking

West Coast already posting about Owies and Baker

Takes time to rush Houston over and get the publicity shots done.

So we have no early pick in this great draft

Didn’t have it a week ago either.

Wouldn’t have it now either unless we got rid of a top line player.

 

[Johno9911]

52,55,58. Surely they would equal some more points for Brisbane for maybe 42 and Robertson?

Don't mind this idea - values Robertson at about a mid third rounder which I wouldn't want to pay more than for him tbh.

I still think we'll see one of Fin or Reef move before the end of tomorrow - so that could be part of a Membrey deal if that link comes true?

I like the Robertson idea but where does Membrey fit in our side? Have a crack at a Best 23 and see if you can fit him in. I can't. So why would he come to us to play in the VFL. He'd be better to go and top-up his super at North or Richmond.

"So close to being a Roo"

So close = never a possibility

 

[Kes1984]

Can someone explain to me what was the difference in the deal port accepted to the one they rejected?

Zilch

 

[Scodog10]

If we had pick 10 the deal may have been easier, but I'm sure we'd have given up more: both 10 and F1. Instead we have Schultz and Houston. Much better than just Houston alone. We'd have kept some later picks, but don't think either 10 or F1 would have stayed with us.

It could have allowed us to just do 10 + F2 or 10 + Noble compensation. I think it’s a stretch to just assume it was automatically 2 1sts had we held this years.

Is he wearing a bra? I’m seeing an outline of a bra.

I’m not denying there’s a bit to play out and yes I forgot Dean. I think players with upside are preferred at least by me… experience is overrated if that’s the only thing you bring to the table. I’d rather the club applied some patience with this position

 

[gouki88]

Fire her up TD!

 

[PiesHateU2]

Yes, to protect his nips from chafing. apparently he is a runner

i think you are correct..... but thats OK,..thats how they roll over there

It "could". Just my view that it wouldn't have. Clubs are going to demand the max. Given that Houston is worth two firsts I'm almost sure we'd have accepted that deal. If you have the picks to pay fair value you don't get a contracted player for under value. We were fortunate to not have more picks.

Still, more trades to get done, Leppa.

 

[Scodog10]

He’s just one of us, but with a platform you’ve gotta love it because he’s hurling truth bombs left and right.

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Awesome to have another super talented indigenous player on our list. Speaks volumes about the work Nev Jetta and the club have done to make it a better place

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