List Mgmt. Trade & F.A. 2017 (if a scenario sounds wrong - read on before posting)

[Hardas]

Their first pick in the draft will be interesting. Mid or key forward.

I'm keen on Fogarty myself, from what little I know.

 

[Fruit]

Watts is rated the best kick into F50. That's exactly what Cox needs. He just needs a 60-40 kick, and should mark 7/10 marks at least.

Watts should honestly play the Tom Lynch role.

I don't think we need a crowded forward 50 rather the opposite. I would back Fasolo, Elliot, Cox and Mooore one-on-one with respective defenders.

If we could add a genuine crumbling forward to that mix it would be perfect. With better kicks to Cox's advantage a crumber should thrive.

 

[Matt_352]

Our Pick 6 for Tigers 15 & 17. Draft Noah Balta and Ed Richards. Thoughts on this?

 

[GreekLunatic]

Destination club for a guy who Carlton medical staff rejected and a guy who cheated with a school girl saad will be there best get

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

So taking bets on furst FA trade tomorrow

Wow, you’d get about $1.02 with that pearl. Maybe put it into a multi with Rockliff to the power?

 

[regpies]

This trade from Terry Wallace makes no sense.

Underpants + ???? = Profit

 

[GreekLunatic]

First trade done us picking up Jack watts

 

[Jasper84]

Legitimate question in relation to the thought of Watts at Collingwood.

How many guys who have been on an AFL list for 9 years or there about have improved their game after being traded. Are most that want Watts at Collingwood in here looking for him to improve his game or are you happy he brings his current form and slots in to consistent best 22? Like I said - legitimate question

I'd argue that our very own Lynden Dunn improved this year. Scrap heap to second best one on one defender for the season. Like Dunn, I see Watts playing better when given a dedicated role in the side instead of being used all over the ground.

For Watts, the knock is his application and work rate not skills, similar to Liam Jones. Like Jones, this can be improved in the right environment.

 

[Matt_352]

Jack Watts
Aaron Mullett
trade 6 for 12 and 18 or 15 and 17 and draft balta and richards

thatll be fine with me for this stage

 

[Tazzaye]

Wheres the dislike button

 

[Obese Arachnid]

With Saad off the table, we should focus on Mullett. I think he is a good fit.

Me too, bring back the Mullett to the Pies.

Though if we miss out it wouldn't break my achy achy heart.

Eh?

Can't say we aren't trying to address a need. We all know Watts is not going to win a Brownlow and hasn't lived up to pick 1 status. But we have a deficiency in forward 50 delivery, he is very good at that, so good on the club for trying to address it.

Can't trade in Dangerfield and Franklin and a time traveling Wayne Carey all the time.

 

[GreekLunatic]

Eh?

First trade done in trade week is watts to collingwood he is the only player linked to us

 

[unplugged]

6, 36 for Watts, 10 & 27.

Otherwise naw

 

[The Plowking]

6, 36 for Watts, 10 & 27.

Otherwise naw

No pick 6 downgrade involving watts thankyou

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Pretty good trick. I feel watts is too slow, not physical enough to provide pressure and has a tendency to find his lowest form of energy.

He's not there to provide physical pressure.. the bloke is super dangerous around goals capable of kicking multiples. His last 2 yrs have proved that. We struggle to get anything on the board. So Watts will add that more strike power up front as well as hit up targets with his skills.

I'd say bloody get him.

 

[Matt_352]

6, 36 for Watts, 10 & 27.

Otherwise naw

No we need to tun 6 into two teens picks to get Balta and Richards. 36 for Watts Straight

 

[unplugged]

No pick 6 downgrade involving watts thankyou

I was thinking that too originally, but I miss our second rounder!

$1.03. But as they say, you can't go broke making profit.

 

[Apex36]

He is laconic, has no urgency about him...outside player. I think for his height he has reasonable speed.

His speed is top notch for any height. Ran a 2.82 at his draft combine in the 20m sprints.

His issue has never been speed, it’s that he’s lazy and picks and chooses when to actually go.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

How quick have Essendon become a destination club?

Smith and Stringer make Essendon a destination club all of a sudden?

And on top of Green last year why all the urgency for forwards when their midfield is so bog ordinary?

I wouldnt be too concerned about Essendon at this stage.

Edit I missed Saad...he may be a good pickup for them...but it doesnt mean they are suddenly a destination club..

 

[Dead Eye Didak]

and They are Drug Cheats. So you do wonder

Which makes it look worse for us, that players would rather go there, then to us!!!!

 

[Pedro]

No we need to tun 6 into two teens picks to get Balta and Richards. 36 for Watts Straight

So, do you reckon we should trade pick 6 for 2 picks in the teens? Grab, i dunno, maybe Balta & Richards??
