List Mgmt. Trade & Free Agency - Fred 11

[tiger_tough]

We should just trade pick 2 for picks 3, 4 and 5.

Not much to get excited about when looking through the list of delisted players but theres one I'd contemplate & thats Culley.
Did his ACL against us last year & seems to have no issue since ,so much so that he worked his way back into the 1's by the end of this year.

He's not the quickest type you'll ever see but pretty decent skills.

From what I read he's still training with WC but a few Vic clubs have shown interest.

 

[richoatthedisco]

We are in an invidious (love that word) position.

You should look it up.

Don't need to mate, know exactly what it means, hence my liking of it

In what way is Richmond's current position invidious?

Fits one of the senses:

1.
incurring or tending to arouse resentment, unpopularity, etc

From here I really hope we don't trade picks. There are good players everywhere top 25. I am certainly not a draft expert but giving up 2 first rounders for pick 2 is not worth it in my view. Unless someone can educate me on why we should do this?

I've only heard it used in the sense of someone being in a position that would almost certainly lead to unpopularity or resentment.

Like your mate asks you whether he should dump his missus for another woman, he is placing you in an invidious position. If you say no he might think you don't want him to enjoy himself and you don't want his life to be more exciting than yours. If you say yes his missus will pillow talk what you said out of him and hate you forever.

In what way is Richmond's current position invidious?

ladder - no
draft hand - yes

and could get even more so if favourable trades of picks happen

might be a slow burn on that front building till draft night and when we grab youngsters others were dreaming of then

 

[UpTheGutz]

Gonna need a Word of The Day thread soon if we don’t do things

Damn you! I was posting exactly this.



Well done

That example is what's known as being caught in the horns of a dilemma.

I think you'd have to agree that we have certainly put ourselves in a position that would lead to unpopularity and resentment.

Long may it last.

Don’t know how we don’t take Jagga at one. I’d also consider tauru at one.
The rest are pretty even at this point.
