Strategy Trade and List management Thread (cont in Part 2)

Seriously, Scully is basically a better version of Hunter these days.

How desperate will the Dogs be in regards to securing an extra ruckman ??

Wouldn’t say desperate. Probably recruit a mature age one from state level to top up from English, Trengove and Boyd.

Not really from my perspective, but the media seems determined to link us to one. We have a real gun in English - just needs time - Boyd and Trengove as backup. Pick up a very cheap backup or retain Campbell (which seems unlikely)

 

[Lindsay_Gilbee]

His price will be 2 first rounders for sure, the Crows put that on the table for Gibbs and he is around the same as a player.

There’s a massive difference between Adelaide’s first rounders and Carlton’s.

We will get no one really good this off season


Book it

Typical crap off season from the dogs.

[Bonts4]

I feel that these aren't the type of players that you trade up for, they should be for the Nick Riewoldt tall forward types or the explosive Criss Judd types.

They are both explosive

Whilst Essendon cleans up

Essendon win trade week every year and yet never improve. Maybe because they're obsessed with getting available players instead of actually improving their goddamn team.

Howd we end up with the most promising young list in the league of we suck over the offseason? Could it be something to do with patiently building through the draft rather than going for the instant gratification that comes when you over pay for established players?

Our crap off seasons won us a flag not long ago, Essendon cleaning up has many, many meanings - but winning finals isn’t one of them....

We still need key players.

I guess all of us waking up today was at least a positive, right? The sun's out, it's a few months until Christmas...

Ive been positive too but I've smelt the roses

Obviously I hope I eat my words.

Josh Kelly would be the absolute cream on the cake but has 1 more year to go on his GWS contract. I would easily give up this years first rounder (assume pick 7) and next years first rounder to get him in this year. Would GWS bite?
Also, enough cap space?

I would of cry tears of pure joy if we landed Kelly.

Oh no

If we trade in another 3 best 22 players this trade period I'll spew up

If we draft 2 guns who are best 22 by round 3 and then rookie another best 22 player, I'll spew up again..

An uncontrollable fountain of vomit

 

[immortalmike]

If we lose Dahlhaus because we aren't willing to pay him a reasonable wage, then pick up a much lesser player as a free agent for a market value wage, I'll spew.

Pretty much resigned to this being the case.

 

[SayerTheCreator]

It honestly will never happen. I don't believe he'll depart GWS (depending on how they go this year) but if he heads back to Vic, I can't see him landing anywhere other than Hawthorn, Collingwood, Essendon or Geelong.

 

[immortalmike]

Two in the late teens maybe. And honestly I'd feel very uncomfortable paying it.

Seriously? Why just those clubs?



You forgot Richmond

OK we trade pick 7 for pick 14 and 16, then trade them for Shiel instead

Jason McCartney is their list manager, so I feel this years first & next years first will be counter offered for this years first & next years 3rd rounder, which we then accept
