List Mgmt. Trade & Free Agency Part 9

[_RT_]

 

[Sol23]

If Baker re-signs then I think it's the biggest indication yet that we are going to trade both Rioli and Bolton. We'll overpay Baker to keep him and front-load other contracts with all the spare cap space. Martin $1m +, Bolton $1m + and Rioli $750k could all be off the books at the end of the year

He’s not staying

 

[GhostofJimJess]

Sounds fair enough. What I think about it might be way different to what the club thinks. They may be hellbent on keeping him so may demand way more.

The other thing to add to that is that it's not just pick 6. It's also 600-700k freed up in the cap.

Better still, pay that 600-700k for the Suns while we’re not using it and double the draft currency we get in return.

Petracca wants out of Melbourne.

Big call if true. My Melbourne mate often tells me the players don’t like Goodwin.

 

[Tigerbob]

If he’s disgruntled at Melbourne imagine if he gets here to us

Luckily that won’t happen lol. As good as he is.

 

[Muddiemoose]

Don’t think he actually wants out
Seems more like a play behind the scenes to put pressure on the board to make changes

The people behind the leak either want to gain a position of power on the board or the club has factions that are at odds

Also says he wants to win flags so hard to imagine him picking us lmao

What happened to 2021 Melbourne being better than anything we did during our recent dynasty? And what happened to them dominating for years to follow?

No flags here mate.

You mean Tom Morris is prematurely busting a nut during foreplay again?

 

[Bojangles17]

Pies have always been keen , they wouldn’t let him go tho

Nor would the pies have the currency
They don’t have a 1st rounder this year and no players that they can afford to lose to get the picks in that would be needed

 

[Tiger_Of_Old]

You must not have watched either of them play.

Prefer the big fwd over anything else.

Hoooobris and ego

Pretracca the new Dusty of the Media circus.

Goodwin will end up at Adelaide some time in the near future.. bet!

Pretracca the new Dusty of the Media circus.

With the injuries he copped it’s comparable to dustys kidney. If they are spinning up a fanciful move to the gold campaigners I’m sure we’ll all believe that yeah

hes will prob be cooked now after the punctured lung

 

[Muddiemoose]

hes will prob be cooked now after the punctured lung

Defining injury of his career like Dusty’s kidney
Was never really the same after
Hard to mentally play the same after something like that

Didn't he do his spleen too?

nah he vented it

 

[partycorolla]

I think we also need to hit Eagles first and get the Baker / Graham trades out of the way. Then hit Brisbane straight after considering how Ashcroft performed on the weekend (could go pick 3) so they are going to need around 2,200 points. With their current position 5th they are going to have to offer up a future 1st on top of their 1st rounder this year IMO.

If we can get Eagles 2nd rounder & F2 and a 2nd round compo for Graham, we could turn picks 23,33,39,41,51 into say pick 15, 22 and a F1

Means we could have picks 1,15,21,22, F1 & F2 even before we look to trade Bolton (pick 8 & 17) & Rioli (pick 7 & 20).

So essentially end up with picks 1,7,8,15,17,20 /21,22

Then imagine walking into next season with 2 first rounders and 2 second rounders even after this draft.

All for the loss of Rioli, Baker, Graham, Bolton & picks 33,39,41,51

Rebuild confirmed.

Graham is a free agent so that will be done first in the FA window...

Probably the lung probs initially but kidney issues are the real deal and something that will need to be looked after forever
