List Mgmt. Trade & Free Agency Discussion 2014 [Current Picks: 12, 33, 52]

[RockJobster0312]

I am stoked Dusty's contract will be sorted before the start of the season if Ralph does not **** it up. I read the sun article and really, I take Dans words as media spin. I really do think, behind close doors we have been in the ear of a few players from other clubs that could fill a need but we are being professional in doing so, ie minimal leaks.

Yet you seem to be in know

Just kidding, I for one love your work Tiger71.

Atm we have 5 picks and one of those includes Miles. Do you expect us to try and get any more?

If we do get more draft picks, I would doubt they would be first rounders. I would be content with a second rounder for a big bodied midfielder to help on the inside. But realistically what would they be worth?

Greenwood - Second Round Pick?
Armitage - Early second round pick?
Hannebrey - First round selection?

Any other inside midfielders which are realistically gettable?

Also who would we have to trade to get another second rounder?

 

[JAKLAUGHING]

Nope...pass...no pace...slow and confirmed it in the GF...

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

It'd take a fair bit to get Hanneberry.
No way would our first pick suffice.
Think it's just typical bored media beat up again anyway.

We wouldn't let Armitage go for less then a first rounder.

Finnis already denied yesterday the Armo trade talk anyway.

 

[pebblestone]

Greenwood is worth way more than Armitage IMO. A year younger and a mile better.

 

[TigerTime3]

I would prefer to get a 27yo free agent for free and draft a kid at Pick 31 than pay Pick 31 for a 25yo player of similar quality and money. Where is the value in that? Did the same with 25yo Hampson last year - it's not smart to pay for 25yos in the age of free agency. It's short-term thinking.

We would be paying a 2nd rounder for 2 years additional service by a depth mid... While North gets Dal Santo and uses their 2nd rounder on another kid.

I maintain that players nearing FA have a lower trade value than they did pre-FA. Supply of talent has risen dramatically, demand has stayed the same.

 

[Tigerland]

Conca and Vickery definitely won't be traded according to Dan Richardson.
He was quite adamant.

We won't be interested in Robinson from Carlton.

Hannelbury from Swans - shocked if the swans let him go. Appears unlikely.

Greenwood - he was a little more coy. Hardly sounded confident though.

We'll be going to the draft to target midfield depth.

Stated no interest in Jeff Garlett or Ahmed Saad too much off field baggage with them.

 

[want2spoodge_pettifer]

Richardson just said we have no interest in Garlett or Saad.

I'd thought Garlett was worth a look, but thank christ we aren't going near Saad.

 

[Sol23]

Hannebery would b an awesome addition to our side. Such a classy player abd super tough.

 

[TigersMan4]

Dan Richo on trade radio:
* apparently is rock solid
* deficiencies are : midfield depth (mid bull outside speed)
* target draft
* no to Robertson
* greenwood confirmed interest, don't think he will leave though
* Vickery is required, but doesn't absolutely rule out trading him
* will work thought dusty contract at the "appropriate time"
* wants to develop small forward, will be looking at draft
* hanners won't go, but fills a need if we could somehow get him
* plans to have hammer in the same side as maric (/vomit)
* everyone loves king yarda yarda yarda
* conca and grigg are not on the table for greenwood
* they have bigfooty style discussions on who to recruit
* no interest in Ahmed sports drink and Jeff king strret
* wants Trent's genitalia in his mouth

 

[Nallad]

"St Kilda’s David Armitage, North Melbourne’s Levi Greenwood and even Sydney’s Daniel Hannebery have been linked to the Tigers."

Source - HUN

Lol Hannebery's sister just moved up to Sydney. He's going nowhere.

 

[Stitch]

So that means we are heavily interested in Hannebery and Greenwood. We've received offers for Conca and Vickery but waiting for the right trade. We want a small fwd. And finally we will get another ruck.

 

[Hans McGregor]

Hannebery? Plays for a team who just lost the grand final, but still have their premiership window wide open for another 1 million + years and will almost certainly be itching to redeem themselves after their performance last week. Do they really think he's going to leave? Honestly? I love journalism.

This made me laugh

 

[SumTingWong]

Just to add:

Dan said they thought it was a great year to improve our midfield depth through the draft. A thought held by Kevin Sheahan as well.
But we would also be keeping an eye on players that wanted to be traded out from other clubs. I thought he definitely confirmed the
interest in Greenwood.
Didn't think he gave an impression other than Vickery being a required player
Happy with small forwards and may possibly look at draft to bolster this area
Won't be going after any rucks
Said he didn't blink an eyelid when he heard the Hawks were after Cotchin

 

[Sol23]

Someone told me that there strength and conditioning team had planned from day dot for 2015 to be our year.

How so?
Gonna do whatever it takes?

Since Dimma came in they had planned that 2015 is when they thought they would be primed. Probably won't b but that's what they have aimed for.

 

[CHIMP MAGNET]

Bad knees. He's had a couple of reco's, I think he even went to Switzerland for the LARS treatment.

I wouldn't trust the Swans after what they did to Saddington and Carlton.

Saddington debuted for Carlton against his old club, the Sydney Swans, in Round 3, 2006. He played six consecutive games, scoring two goals, before his season was again ended by the recurring knee injury. It was at this late stage that Saddington was told for the first time that the medical staff at Sydney Swans were aware of complications that had resulted from his first knee injury and had withheld this information from him and also from his new club. He had a further operation, and missed the rest of the 2006 season.​

has played 88 games out of a possible 94 since his comeback from knee injury in Rd9 2011

saddington is a dumb campaigner and was a dog s**t player, sucked in carlton

rat effort from the syds if that story is true though

 

[theflea]

nick Malceski- would walk into out back 7

He would walk into every team so this isnt a surprise.

 

[theflea]

Vickery, Griffiths and Riewoldt we just have to make work for us to progress. The forward coach and Dimma need to work out how to make the structures and running patterns and process work for the three dangerous talls to fit.

If we can add to our midfield with a bonafide player, Vlastuin, Ellis, Conca improve get a couple of pieces I think we can get far. It's why I'm not understanding going down the drafting route so aggressively.

It's why I want us to go after better coaches to make it work. Invest in better fitness guys to make it work. Invest in systems to a make it work.

Being happy and chest pumping the 10th best resourced football department is so poor. No excuses to be much higher. No debt. Third highest membership. High attendances. $6 million free kick given by the fans. Strong sponsorship.

Why aren't we chasing a flag?

Oh please were weren't 'chest pumping' about the FD spending all it was a statement from 'where we have come from' and in no way states where we will be 'next' year. Your reading it the wrong way Bob. I understand your point but I think your off the mark here.

 

[theflea]

What if the club has done its due diligence and any of candidates have either fallen short of the mark or like in the case of Ling and Lenny made themselves not available to anyone.You want us to waste money on someone who doesn't meet a certain type of criteria?

You mean like not pulling the trigger on an also ran defensive coach until a good one come available like Rutten..............?

lmao

Lol Hannebery's sister just moved up to Sydney. He's going nowhere.

sounds like a good reason to move to me
she the one that been telling anyone that will listen her brother has a coke addiction?

 

[Tigey]

This made me laugh

Choco is Mr Magic?
