List Mgmt. 2017 - Trading and Free Agency

[youmewe]

Rudy Riddoch from West Perth. We should get him as a rookie. Hes a human wrecking ball with a huge kick.

Has a name we could work with.
Mike Stevens. Pffttt.

 

[Midnite65]

What are people's thoughts on Zaharakis?

While he is not an A Grader, he would be a good midfield rotation.

We don't need another front runner midfielder, we have been crying out for a key forward for 5 years plus now, it would make McCarthy, Kersetn and the smalls so much better with a big target than can mark and crash packs.....Casboult is the man

 

[Taylor]

We get outrun in the middle..

 

[Hazelsnuts]

Our big bodied midfielders really got shown up at the stoppages.
Regardless if Sandilands is winning in the ruck we need acceleration out of the middle, sure the big bodies break tackles a lot of the time, but we really need an injection of pace and skill.
Zorko was brilliant, left Fyfe, Mundy and Neale in his wake on a few occasions....
really need a top tier midfielder with pace and skills.
I'm afraid we may have missed the boat last year by relinquishing pick 3.
We have so many holes to plug, I just think we may have lost an opportunity here.
I'm hopeful that Logue will be the player we hope, but we need to get a mid to distribute with poise and class.
We need to get into the late first - early second round in the draft whilst keeping our top 8 pick, don't know how. Delist and trade the stuffing out of the list, package up the late rounds to swap with GWS, Syd, Bris and GCS for points, get another pick in the late teens to 30s.

Tim Kelly ?

I would rather give TK a go than perservere with Suban, Sheridan and Sutcliffe.
The state game against the Vics showed we have great talent under our noses, maybe the later picks should be used on these guys as we have done the last couple of drafts - speculate on a few of the young fellas that have kept at it give them the opportunity to be full time footballers - you will get busts like Yarren - silly bugger, but we could definitely do better than persisting year after year with guys that continually never quite get there.
Play em, see what they can do - keep or flick them. The coaches should be able to tell in 2 years if there is anything there or not- it is thier job to.

Tim Kelly?

Coming from a long way back with that name. The tatts improve his chances, especially the one on his neck.

Gets the ball and has improved his disposal out of sight, always been a really good decision maker.
Yeah has the TC tatts- you alluding to Shane Yarren similarities?
Pretty simplistic comment?

If you read the backscroll, it's about simple names like John Smith not
standing out.

At times like these, a little humour goes some way towards relieving the pain.

Fair call, change his name to Ned if you want.
Gotta love an outlaw name.

Not sure what pain to relieve ?

[Righteo]

Outrun is not a buzzword for ****s sake

 

[theGav56]

To address speed I think JJ IN and Weller more midfield would have an impact. To address size I think Hughes and Logue both have burst midfield potential. But it is also one of the easiest areas to recruit/draft. Barlow, Mzungu and deBoer examples, Blakely too.

 

[scon]

Drongo alarm trends toward about 99% horseshite.
The other 1% is just rubbish.

 

[meima]

I know a lot of people trying to trade in players . But you need to trade out in order to trade in.


1) sherriden + croz
2) suban + balic
3) croz + balic
4) sutty to port ( get a WA player from them of equal value Brandon ah Chee, frampton )
5) suban + ibbo ( 4 round pick or late third round)

 

[Lach72]

Balic may be the one.
If he wants to go, I'd almost push for something like Balic for a third and fourth

 

[Kram]

Really, really need to somehow get back into the 2nd round.

 

[TheLastCall]

Balic may be the one.
If he wants to go, I'd almost push for something like Balic third and fourth

Hate to see Balic go, he has a huge upside.

He's worth an early second, Freo did the work to get him right. Before his wrist he was top 10.

He might be, but we have so many holes we need volume of picks too.
A third and fourth from a bottom 8 club would very handy

 

[meima]

If balic really want go I will use that pick on mature age WA player that play 1-3 season of WAfl senior.

 

[Scham]

Langdon?

 

[Docker82]

Hope we do draft some of these guys but perhaps later on in the draft. I'm not sure we are talking guys that'll actually go in the main draft tbh except probably 2-3 of them.

I'd still hope to get a third rounder for Balic at worst. If not I'd rather use him to upgrade picks or get players (even if only as sneak knives).
