List Mgmt. 2014 Trade and Free Agency Targets Thread

[Kimbo]

Sorry don't slay me but I don't like Daw. Got some dukes but just cant play AFL footy at level required.

Yeah, clearly a part of the Cameron/Dangerfield three-way trade deal.

Yeah but they would have to throw something in right?

We could probably get GWS and the Crows first picks if we throw in Anthony

 

[Tas]

I wouldn't be surprised if he was given another year, however, I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't given another contract.

Turner and Tippett will need to be elevated, we also have to look at replacements for Thompson, Grima, Petrie, Tarrant while we also need to look at more outside speedy/classy mids so I think list space will be a premium even if we have several candidates for moving on.

I think Turner is occupying the position that Nahas was filling. Not sure there is also room for Nahas unless Adams doesn't come back from his concussions. Can anyone see Brad not picking Adams? :stern look

 

[Sugar2Sideshow]

Would you give Danger the captaincy if he wanted it?

 

[Only Forwards]

Would you give Danger the captaincy if he wanted it?

In a word.

No.

In a few words.

You don't sell the captaincy.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

No.

In a few words.

You don't sell the captaincy.

In my words: Piss off with the idea. Especially given Swallow's words just now.

Which words? Did he just give an interview? Link?

 

[Petrie4PM]

Does anyone think we should we should dangle a carrot in front of Leigh Montagna? I know he is 30 but he is good and an ultimate professional. Playing with old mate del and playing finals footy. 2 year contract? I have been thinking about this for some time. What it would cost us? Not sure.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

I'll apologise for my choice of words just now. I don't mean piss off to NM brethren who bring it up. Piss off to the idea itself.

Would be a silly move to delist him.

Harper is such a question mark, Turner could well find himself up the ground, Adams may have played his last game, LT is likely to dislocate his head next season.

He'd be stiff.

I think if we draft a kid that is quick and has skillz he can pretty much come right into the side, it is different to KPP or inside mids. I really liked Nahas' endeavour, but his finishing left a lot to be desired though.

It did work when we originally got Harper ... to an extent.

Yeah, but we haven't drafted that kid yet.

I also don't think we need to be rushing into upgrading Tippett yet either (unless it's forced through rookie list rules then play on...).

 

[Tas]

I honestly don't know why we treated Harper the way we did, it is not like Boomer is the most accountable player going around. Would have preferred if he was kept as an aggressive half forward and just worked a bit on his defensive pressure, trying to turn him into a midfielder was a shit move.

 

[Tas]

Yeah, we haven't drafted the kid, but if the club has intent they might not commit to a contract extension. Who knows, they might plan to push someone like Mullett into that kind of role. As I said, wouldn't be surprised in either outcome of giving him another contract or not.

I think Tippett has another 2 years he can stay on our rookie list. It comes down to if he is going to play or not really. The problem we have is that neither Thompson, Grima or Hansen are suited for the bigger forwards. If Tippett is on the rookie list and we don't have a LTI we can't use him. Grima and Hansen seem to get a lot of short term injuries, I think we need to have someone who can step in when needed.

 

[True North]

I'd keep him next year.

Next year should be Premiership back to back year. No point discarding a good depth player that pick 60 won't emulate in year 1

Wouldn't we expect Delaney to step up next year for that role?

 

[marklovesbeer]

Hopefully Greenwood's re-signing is announced at the Syd Barker.

What a month that will be for him. Best & fairest winner, new contract & a norm smith medal.

 

[Tas]

I think he is more of a CHB type but who knows, he is making Grima's body look reliable by comparison atm.

 

[kool kangas]

Should definitely get 1 more year maybe 2 and who knows , might get to play in a prelim if Harvey get a week...."something out of left field"

 

[shintemaster]

Tippet looks good to go, suspect the fact that the club is talking about the possibility of him playing this weekend means they've seen enough in him to be convinced he can fill a role in the medium term. Delaney has a big question mark on him due to injury history now.

 

[TooUglyForFugly]

So wait, Waite's decision will be made on Wednesday?

Dunno which camp I'm in, even now.

 

[Smoocher]

Should get another year.
Hine, Curran, LA and Wilkins seem like likely delistees ahead of him.
Plus would get rid of McMahon(retire/trade for nothing/payout final year and delist)

Spot on. I would add Tarrant to the list. Injuries have struck him down and we have Mason Wood as a more than handy replacement.

 

[Shermanator]

Was excellent earlier in the season, his forward pressure was Sugar-like.

He stays.

He's not. He's very much not.
