List Mgmt. 2015 Trade, Draft, Rookie Draft and FA Megathread

[Defacto]

Nope. If I had to guess, Simpkin, Pierce and Markworth in trouble. All un-signed.

If pierce was in trouble id doubt that Richo has gone out of his way to comment on him in the last two weeks in a number of interviews and pressers. Sounds like we want to develop our own ruckmen and accept it takes time to do it, so I think we are committed to pierce for a while yet as a project player

 

[Sir Skid]

I don't think they can because the whole formula apparently is known only by the commision

Fair enough.

Expect we'll have to wait up to a few years for the truth to come out if he makes band 1.

 

[Curious George]

Heard a whisper that curran and Murdock may get the axe.
Thought Murdock showed a bit in his games, big long left foot kick. Currans spots look to be taken over by weller and lonie/Sinclair

 

[Sir Skid]

Pity if Murdoch goes.
Rather invest in him than Ray.

 

[BRUUUUCE]

Is delany contracted next year ?

 

[kernelT]

Averages about 12 touches, 3 marks, 20-odd hit outs and half a goal per game... Nothing about his game is elite, I will spew if Carlton get pick 2 for that spud.

Both are contracted, which doesn't mean we won't delist them but you'd think it was unlikely.

We got pick 21 for Stanley, Kreuzer is a good ruck forward.

You seriously think he is worth Pick 2 in compensation?

Injury prone, inconsistent?

He is good on his day don't get me wrong but not worth pick 2. The system is flawed.

PS - I also think we got to much for Stanley.

 

[kernelT]

Agree with you, however....

Carlscum will openly pay a third of cruizers salary for the next 3 years to trip him over the band 1 compo line get pick 2.
Cheats are always cheats.

They have to remove this portion from the banding calculations or the whole system is a farce.

This is where the AFL get themselves into so much strife.
The Frawley pick 3 farse to gift Melb a pseudo pp will come back to bite.....us

 

[atlaser]

Hes not a talent we would target at our first pick. Tucker and Mathieson would have to be absolute certainties if Parish is not there to pick, which he won't be unless Melbourne show something this weekend and pull off an unlikely victory.

Not a bad effort from the Dees!

 

[Defacto]

Well this thread sure is going to come to life now. It's been in pre-season going the hard slog and now the real stuff starts

 

[Grav]

Anyone watch the Freo game? Just curious how Tanner Smith went. Think he's OOC wouldn't mind seeing if we can get him, even as say a rookie. Right age bracket for our next tilt at a premiership.

Focused on Murdoch last night, is quite limited as an AFL footballer with only one trick in his bag..

 

[borderbarry]

If Academy players get taken early, it wont make a difference to the draft order of the other clubs. For example. if at 5 Mathieson and Francis are available, and GWS and Sydney are forced to their take their Academy boys at 5 and 6 pushing us to pick 7, Mathieson and Francis will still be available. However if we are pushed out to 7 by Carlton and Brisbane getting extra picks, they will be gone.

 

[Linton St]

Harley Bennell & Jakey Carlisle are the club's main priorities this off-season.

[Half Back Pocket]

Siposs White Murdoch and Pierce have twice as much talent as Shenton, Curren, Simpkin and Ray.

Each to their own, but I strongly disagree.

Great hands, great kick, very good one-on-one player, decent to good speed, eye for a goal, good size.

 

[Mowman]

Siposs White Murdoch and Pierce have twice as much talent as Shenton, Curren, Simpkin and Ray.

All of them apart from Pierce very lucky to be on a AFL list next year

Murdoch?

 

[AuntieBarrels]

Siposs White Murdoch and Pierce have twice as much talent as Shenton, Curren, Simpkin and Ray.

Not trying to take anything anyway from Siposs White Murdoch and Pierce (im sure they train hard), but Shenton, Curren, Simpkin and Ray put a shitload of effort into their training which is a reason why they get games over the first 4 you mentioned. Talent means nothing unless ridiculous effort is put in.

 

[Mowman]

Murdoch?

Yep, will be his 4th year next year has been very unlucky with injury.

 

[Ian Dunross]

Dane Swan, Josh Kennedy, Matt Priddis, Bernie Vince, Brendon Goddard, Robbie Gray, Scott Thompson (Crows), Jordan Lewis.

All looked pretty cack after a few seasons.

Murdoch may not get much of it, but does he look out of his depth at AFL level? No way for mine. That's pretty bloody good considering he's had only 2 pre-seasons and is transitioning from playing as a full forward all his junior career.

He wouldn't have even had one proper preseason. First year he would have been on a modified program due to his age and in his next two preseasons he missed what looked like big chunks of them due to his back issues.
