List Mgmt. Trade & F/A - 2020

[Chrispiesssss]

That means if you have 1 really good prospect there's literally no point developing the other kids in that 2 year bracket... You'd just be developing them for other clubs to take.

Or trade up and get both?

We’ve got to keep remembering how cheap Mills and Heeney went to the Swans.

 

[well left]

I think we’ve missed the boat on Riccardi unless GWS somehow drop him before the end of the year.

The trick now is to find this year’s Riccardi if there is one and ensure we don’t make the same mistake twice!

Massive risk offering a loaded contract to Riccardi after 2 games. Especially as we could have had him for peanuts

Yeah, it would be embarrassing to make big offers to a kid we could and should easily have drafted ourselves now. We’re better off trying to draft a KPP and find a moneyball prospect to fill the void now. Not sure there’s anyone in the state leagues this year who is as promising as Riccardi was though. We really stuffed up on this one.

Dixon signed 3 year deal with port

Cox earns contract extension through trigger clause

The tall forward signed a three-year deal with the potential for a fourth year on the same money – about $550,000 annually – if he played a certain number of games over those first three years.

If this is true, it’s an issue. 550k tied up in Cox next year? good luck to us luring a big key forward...

Genuinely concerned we won’t even target one and will go with cox again. That’s a ridiculous amount of money...

Did you actually Believe the Bullshit Rumors that was Spread about him?

What a bargain for Dixon! For Cox, not so much...

How was cox signed for 550k in 2017? i had no idea he was on that.. no wonder we have salary cap issues

 

[gouki88]

That was probably a bit harsh on Cox, given Peter Wright is currently on $600k, and guys like Mitch McGovern are on $800k. It could be worse

There has been heaps of money thrown at key forwards wrongfully. Maybe it was so we could break into the US market

In 2017 though, not trying to be harsh on him, but it’s a lot for him back then.

And yes atleast playing for us, and not on instagram..

No wonder our cap is ****ed if we’re paying the likes of Cox $550k....

 

[unplugged]

Riccardi playing as what, the second or third tall at GWS. Got Cameron ahead of him.

He'd be our main target and could easily be struggling.

Don't get me wrong I wish we had him but I bet he wouldn't be having the same impact after 2 games with us.

 

[unplugged]

Was reading the draft board, and apparently rumours that Josh Worrell isn’t coping well away from home in Adelaide. He hasn’t been able to crack into the worst team in the league.

I remember posters being keen on him last year.

Pragmatic Shill this is our chance

 

[gouki88]

Ha, sorry, meant harsh by myself. I think comparing him to overpaid worse players at the same position will help everyone feel better

Probably not, but at the same time he’d be taking a significant amount of heat off of Checkers and Cox/Cameron. There’s no doubt that his presence would have been a massive improvement to our structures.

He, Kelly and Checkers would have made a great forward line going forward alongside De Goey, Stephenson and Elliott. Ah well

This just flows from our disastrous contract decisions regarding player contracts we structured for Mayne, Wells, Beams and now Cox. His 4th year trigger of one year should of contained a clause where the $ were to be renegotiated depending on past performance, especially in Cox's case coming into the game as late as he has. Surely the club knew 3 years ago that we would have to re sign some big names around the same time.

The mind boggles. He wasn’t even that good back then. I can’t believe we were desperate enough to cave in to that sort of deal to keep him from leaving....

Cox of all players should of been on a heavily incentivised contract purely performance based.

would have done his ACL in the warm up with us.

 

[mike123]

Sure hope not. Struggle to see any difference between Polac and Phillips

Polec is quicker and a longer kick

 

[gouki88]

Polec is quicker and a longer kick

As well as older, worse at endurance running and looking to join his 4th club already.

 

[soreplums]

Polec is quicker and a longer kick

Higgins. He’d be handy polish on the outside and it cost nearly as much $$ or trade wise

 

[stormskye]

Not sure of $ but polec is contracted till 2023. I’d stay clear...
