List Mgmt. 2016 Trade/FA Thread 2.0: Ahern (pg168); Hrovat (pg252); Williams (pg270)

The Rat!!! Considering our apparent unsexiness. I'm pretty rapt to have pinched him and Ahern. Bargains.

 

[tiltraise]

2017 3rd rounder? Or do the Dogs want more for him?

Pretty confident the Dogs dont want a late 2017 pick for him. If we had a 2016 pick to trade for him im sure it would be done already.

Rat is Caleb Daniel minus the opportunity (mostly as a result of injury).

He's also mature beyond his years.

Treat him well.

Hearing that Hrovat to be confirmed sometime tomorrow. Future 3rd/4th apparently in play...

Just thought id put this here . Mail was correct to a tee .

Also don't be surprised if Pickett and WHE are packaged to us. Not sure on the picks involved for that but hearing we are trying..

 

[Kanga Glory]

I hope there is a couple of other trades for upgrades of picks involving black and Mckenzie

 

[tiltraise]

Just to back up my previous argument about trading futures to get another high pick this year

We should be doing the opposite then.

If Pick 11 could net us 2 x 2017 1Rs id be keen on that.

 

[naturally north]

hearing we are trying..

Yep we're very ****en trying

Just thought id put this here . Mail was good.

I think there are future picks involved in the swap. Also don't be surprised if Pickett and WHE are packaged to us. Not sure on the picks involved for that but hearing we are trying..

Let's hope lightning strikes twice!

We have added and will add more talent with our picks. This trade and draft period is not the test for me. The "aggressive reset" will be seen (or not) in how much opportunity our talent is now given to develop.

 

[The Big H]

Black to Port Adelaide for pick 103 and McKenzie to Adelaide for 107 or Gold Coast for 98. Picket and WHE to North for not much as if they're really trying to get Delidio they'll need the cap space-plus their list is being cut as well.

 

[wolvesRoos]

Players nominating 'preferred clubs' should be stuffed off.

Yes when did this start happening. Its the biggest danger to equalisation in my mind. If someone wants to head home to melbourne that club should be able to accept the best offer available to them from a melbourne based club

 

[DarkPhoenix]

Wait to hear the details of the Hrovat trade but at the outset seems a pretty straightforward and good trade.

 

[Tas]

Shirley if GWS want Deledio they will need to shove off more players for cap space, we should make a move on a highly paid kid they don't need.

Thanks Emma Q, finally a tweet from someone with a bit of credibility, unlike some of the other regular bullshit artists quoted incessantly lately.

Big dish had a major hand in the whole player control of their careers thing didn't he?

 

[year of the roo]

At a guess, how many of your posts in the last week or so involve us trading out pick 11?

Our 2017 third for their 2016 third?

 

[Thewlis Dish]

I know some of those guys have very little currency, but surely we could have at least traded Hansen/Thompson and Swallow in order to upgrade our early 30's picks to late teens/early 20's?

Why would other clubs do that? Trading has to be a two way agreement. If they are expendable to us then they are probably not going to convince other clubs to trade down earlier in the draft to get them.

If we had pick 20 would you downgrade to pick 33 to get Hrovat? I certainly wouldn't.

By my reckoning in excess of 66%

 

[Royal Flush]

I think I'm disappointed because I have no idea of our direction any more and based on delisting the 4 and the snippets from JB, I assumed we would be really on the front foot to get us out of a middle of the road ladder position. We can only do that through draft or trade and I just hope we get some more picks tomorrow.

I agree trades are tough but to be honest I would have been ok to let go of a couple of others at slight unders to really attack this midfielders draft.

I'm hoping we see a couple of picks tomorrow

There's about 20 trades to be done by tomorrow, including pick swaps.

We have been too late to introduce young talents in recent times IMO.

How Vickers Willis and Mountford didn't get a senior game this year, yet we played a clearly finished Dal Santo and Petrie repeatedly, is quite astonishing.

It would take a complete change of Scott's mentality to achieve this 'aggressive reset'.

I'm hopeful we can, but far from convinced we have the right players and coaches to successfully bring number 5. I think we might need a bigger shake up and slightly disappointed we haven't been more active (so far) in this period to achieve that.
