List Mgmt. Trade & Free Agency Part 10

[Mr Magic]

I have precisely no idea, but have seen Carlton mentioned as one with keen interest

Carlton do not want to give up pick 11, lol

 

[UpTheGutz]

Carlton do not want to give up pick 11, lol

Say it happens. Just as an exercise.
11 & 12 or 6 & 20 for Rioli?

 

[tigerfan1961]

I believe we will explore a play at Harley Reid. Bolton, Baker and pick 2 plus a healthy pay rise will be the play.
Obviously work needs to be done to get pick 2. Don’t be disappointed folks if we don’t end up selecting 7 first round picks. The price for Reid will be heavy.

Zero chance we even attempt to sell everything for one player, zero

i prefer 6 and 20 and 20 we can bundle with other picks to maybe get a mid 1st rounder

 

[Mr Magic]

the whole lot, give all our back picks to GC, 6, 11, 12 and 20. Dimma said they do not need draft picks and I know they have a heap of academies coming.

one would give up our future second if we had to to get what we need

 

[Tortured Tiger]

I am happy for Harley Reid to stay where he is, we need a heap of new talent to come in and rebuild properly.

do that and give him reasons to come to us later

And that’s precisely what our List Manager and our recruiters will be thinking Zero chance we chase Reid with the draft hand we are about to build, zero. We need many good players, not one potential superstar.

 

[wegetpumped]

Possible isn’t it ? As far as I’m aware he hasn’t nominated a club yet? Didn’t he essentially say get me back to WA and left it with RFC to get the deal done?

Yes he did tell the club Freo is his preferred destination but also told them unless they don't get probably composated eagles will be fine.

 

[SA_Tiger11]

With Lukoscious heading to Port could that mean we have a play at Ollie Lord? His name gets mentioned a fair bit on here.

do we sound like idiots??

RFC might have to get Tauru to bring fans to the game watching his marking

 

[THE_GUN]

I dont want to give up $900k to buy a new Ferrari so what does that mean


Yep i dont get the Ferrari

Nope, Port need all of the KPF's they can lay their hands on, Dixon cooked, Marshall one head knock away from retiring, Finlayson, well 'Finlayson'. There's really only Lord and Georgiades

 

[Barnard]

There is always a lot of talk around Lord. But is he really worth any more than a 3rd round selection? Understand the big guys take a bit longer but he’s only kicked 36 goals from 45 at the sanfl level. I would sooner take a punt on Archie May on the rookie list, he’s a guy that can look like prime Tom Lynch one week and Cleve Hughes the next but gee he has a bit to work with. Get him into the full AFL system and see how he goes. I believe he’s only 20 years old.

yep, we have enough not quite good enough tall forwards

 

[TJTIGER]

The picks they’ll receive from a Houston trade presumably

Cheers, forgot about that possibility.

Bauer’s better

 

[RJK Tiger]

Recruiting departments aren’t perfect and I believe they thought Geelong’s first pick for the following year would be of more value. Didn’t work out. 16 other clubs could have recruited him also. You’re just upset that it was our traded pick used to recruit Holmes. Get over it. We have a new recruiting manager, criticising past recruitment is a waste of time. Hold on until trade/draft period is concluded until you let rip. Toce has yet to even oversee a trade period/draft.

Yes, they certainly are not perfect.

 

[THE_GUN]

Id rather make our own mistakes

 

[Bojangles17]

2 years max helping clubs financially.

In two to three years max we’ll need the cap space to recruit FA & out of contract players etc ourselves. 4 years funding is ridiculous. Plus we will also need to be involved in cap trading directly for draft picks. Everyone wants to trade finance for higher draft picks if they have it, but it has a limited time span as you will need that cap space when you are ready to compete and purchase top players(like Lynch).

2y at the max , we should position ourselves with enough room in the TPP to make a ridiculous offer for front ended contract like 2m plus

 

[tunksy]

Perhaps but a generational player that has exposed form at senior level. If we chase him we are chasing who will in time be best player in the comp alongside Daicos

He’s played ok. Certainly not the next daicos imo currently.

Plus we have a lot of holes in our list to address. Need picks to do that.

 

[SouthernStripes]

And a better forward line.

A very ordinary move from Port, they need hardnosed players who can move the needle in their favour, Lukosius is being pushed out because he hasn't got that hard edge and Dimma knows it's fundamental to a finals winning culture.

He will fit in well at the power then

Likely off to cats.

Dixon likely out the door.

 

[RJK Tiger]

Another Rubbish post by you !!

17 other clubs didnt even know Holmes was alive and he played 2 games in 2 years

but its a 'Fatal' error FMD

we were on this board at the time and i dont remember you mentioning holmes as a potential star

quick go back make a ninja edit

As i have said many many many times mate - i don't pretend to ever know anything about this kids not in the AFL yet. I don't watch it & unlike you guys, don't pretend to be an expert at everything. I let the club do what it does, then judge them on the results.

The results speak for themselves i reckon - don't think i'm the one having to "prove" anything there

 

[RJK Tiger]

They actually discussed this Holmes draft a week ago and the boys on fox were discussing how no other club drafted him.

What insight. No other club drafted Holmes. Is this not true for literally EVERY player? Only 1 team ever "drafts" anyone. What makes Max Holmes such a unique case?

Club could have easily got Holmes and still ended up with Brown IMO - from memory Brown was considered a reach at 12 and expected to so later
