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

If we re-sign Long, we won't even have a rookie spot, so no can't do that.

Thanks for that Jen - difficult calls this time of the year, especially with the list spot squeeze!

Yup and given we need 3 spots for the draft, this year is just right for spots.

Only way for that to happen is to delist reef given he is the only one left TBA on the senior list.
But the noise has been quiet on that front the moment we went for membrey so don't think we'll go both

2 in ND + rookie upgrade opens up a rookie spot for Tomlinson (whilst still retaining Reef)
OR
they go 3 in ND, HH onto LTi and pick up Tomlinson via SSP (whilst still retaining Reef)

Word is we're taking 3 in the ND (given our picks are close together, might as well), so the 2nd option is a possibility if they put HH on the inactive list
We'll know a bit more later this week, they'll have to finalise the list spots before DFA.

Was Luke ball the St kilda player we got for "free" ?

We drafted him using pick 30 in 2009 AFL draft.

Yep, there're options.
I'm guessing Tomlinson would prefer to have a list spot of some type, sooner rather than later, if we are still keean.

 

[celestial]

Perhaps I should have been more clear, was Luke ball the last st kilda player we got from st kilda without having to trade for him?

If so, that sounds like a good omen.

 

[Apex36]

Do we have room to re-rookie reef if that was the route we went down?

I like Reef but fear his time might be up - but I would love us to give him a proper summer and a full year at FB before letting him walk.

We’d be better off re-signing Reef if we want to keep him and then delisting and re-rookie listing AJ. Reef will be eligible to go anywhere as a delisted free agent if we made that attempt and I’d imagine there would be a few clubs who would take a shot on him for free.

Or simply delisting Long and just adding Tomlinson or whoever the target is in the rookie draft.

Honestly I can’t believe we haven’t delisted Long already. He’s clearly not AFL standard. Rupert Wills reincarnated.

I can't see it with him, but admittedly I thought the same about Murphy.

 

[Matt_352]

Just delist Long and pick up Tomlinson in the RD. Then HH goes in LTI list and Tomlinson comes onto main list. Easy. Long is a spud.

Doesn't work that way. You cant draft someone in the rookie draft then move them to the senior list in the same off season

I guess it depends on if you want to count Jack Bytel…

Why would that even be necessary?

Wills could def find the footy better. In that last carlton game I was bemused at the fact we left long on cripps to go on a warpath for nearly the whole 2nd half (obviously stopping cripps is tough but)

Long is bigger+more athletic but can't see him playing afl footy unless we are crippled by injury.

Depends if what we saw was all he's got. Felt like he was given a defensive remit and became too reactive to be effective - even defensively. Just looked slow of body and mind. But maybe there's more there if he gets the approach right?

 

[mocamagic]

I wouldn't bother with Tomlinson

 

[BigVic]

Ball was picked in the draft that year

 

[Gabbo64]

Now that Membrey is a lock, I reckon we should go to the draft and take 3 roughies that fit the profiles we are after. Not best available unless they fill a need. I've seen some interesting possibilities on the draft thread and reckon we could find something to work with.

 

[watt price tully]

Josh Thomas like- used to get a lot of slack. I reckon fly would have loved him

Blair was a premiership player and contributor to the 2010 premiership. Amongst other things he won us an Anzac Day game v Essendon (the last game I’ve been to with my Essendon supporting wife) I now go with Collingwood supporters only (my other wives)

 

[Scud2]

Very stiff to lose
Vardy plays nearly the only good game of his career
2018 prelim one of the greatest performances in history
Actually stopped them from winning 4 in a row and equaling out record

Coming from a mixed Collingwood and Richmond family, the 2018 prelim was the greatest game of football I’ve ever experienced.
Winning the GF would have been the cherry on top.

You don't need to though. Why would we move him to senior list?
