List Mgmt. Trade & F/A - 2018/2019 - Part 2!

[unplugged]

Bumpy noggin is obviously going to be pick 75 or worse or we would've just got him as a Free Agent and lapsed our Fas compo. Don't hate the idea if it's true.

Hey KM,

Why on earth is Scully going for such a late pick? Surely the Pies should be in there. We are crying out for a player like him. Wells out and Scully in. Why aren’t clubs lining up for him?

Because his ankle is stuffed. Absolutely cooked. He'll pass a medical, but it won't hold up.

Really?

Now the murmurs around Jon Patton have started. Wtf is going on at GWS?

Would take Patton in a heartbeat.

3 recos already, his forward type is completely out of the game. No Fing way.

 

[TradeDraft]

Still waiting for Offical Announcement for Roughead

 

[BEEG]

Love to get Patton nice and cheap sit him in the square.

 

[Bored_Pie]

Really?

Yep, if it wasn't cooked clubs would be lining up for Scully. Absolute machine pre- ankle.

 

[Pedro]

Come on Pedro we’re Collingwood supporters it doesn’t work like that......but I may have thought that way when........

Yeah nothing beats that. But I do remembeer when Brown kicked that goal in the prelim, myself and my two girls just looked at each othewr and nobody said a word. We all just had that grin on our face which said it all. I reckon its something I'll never forget.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

Then why would you single him out?

Are you taking the piss, or daft? I'm singling him out because it's his job to recruit good players to our football club and not Jordan Roughead.

Do you know what passive aggressive is?

 

[Unknown Identity]

Really?

Yeah I've heard its pretty bad

Everytime he tried to increase his training load he had another set back.

Basically a 750k paperweight at the moment.

Ankle. It's in a bad way.

He's worth a second round pick still, but with the ankle questionmark, you can't reasonably offer a first at his age/stage. If he gets it right. We all know how great he is. He's one of the competition's elite endurance runners and accumulators. An absolute professional and meticulous in everything he does.

Talk of a possible third round pick I look at as crazy.

He'll be a bargain.

I'd keep Wells. But I'd add Scully and Hall in a heartbeat to Wells/Phillips/Sidebottom.

The game is going in the direction of running and becoming more open. Those guys with that game style change who are already undervalued commodities can have even greater impacts all as rotating wing/half-forwards.

 

[Knightmare]

You would think we at least ask Scully the question. The trade value of it alone reported value anyway would make him more attractive then beams

At that price. I'd take Scully over Beams.

Brisbane NEED Beams. They need that leadership. Hodge has helped give he and Zorko the tools. They need those two to help the continued growth of that list. They can't give Beams up cheap - if they're smart.

 

[Albert Parker]

I’m not upset about Roughead. I’m not rapt about him.

If it’s not costing much I’m completely fine with it. Might really thrive in our side and adds desperately needed defensive depth. Hell, given our injury situation, he’s probably playing Round 1.

Sure it was said in jest by you SE, but FWIW Lynden Dunn told me today at the Holden Centre as he ran around that he will be right for Rd 1. Unequivocal.

 

[nowon]

Yep we need these albatross contracts around GWS’ necks and not ours. They just offloaded Lobb, Setterfield, Shiel and soon likely Scully. Soon they’ll be able to retain their talented players... and then where will we use as a farm system for us?

As an aside / talking point: what would the AFL head-honchos think about GWS’s future given the loss of Lobb, Setterfield, Shiel and likely Scully.

Like Hall, Lynch and maybe May - it doesn’t bode well for either club now - these seem to be holding zones - before players get to where they’d want to play. I think it’s a serious problem for the expansion of the competition.

 

[FAIRANDBALANCED]

I'd give up pick 18 for Scully. Pure hard running wing man.

Trade Period Update, Day 5 of 10:

After a busy day 4 of doing absolutely nothing and yet somehow sky-rocketing into stardom due to the unconfirmed and potentially fabricated homecoming of Dayne Beams, Ned Guy appeared to have gone back into a slumber.

However, recent rumours suggest that he has - although currently unconfirmed - somehow managed to recruit some experienced KPP depth in Roughead.

Stay tuned for a weekend filled with "team x has reportedly come to terms with team y, expect a deal to be done on Monday" and more speculation that Ned is simply not doing anything over the weekend.

But that's fine, Ned. You deserve the weekend off. It has been a hectic first week.

 

[sr36]

I think we will agree to disagree on this one.

Good call. As an intransigent leftie, I'm generally appalled by club and supporter attitudes towards employees. Your not going to get much that's rational from me on this topic.

 

[Bored_Pie]

I'd give up pick 18 for Scully. Pure hard running wing man.

Hahaha thank god you aren't Ned Guy.

 

[domin8tors]

Willing to give up Pick 11 for Kelly.
Neale is worth 2 first rounders.

But they absolutely low ball Dees and potentially have cost themselves a once in a decade forward that actually wanted to play for them.

Peter Bell is way out of his depth.

i think the deal went over peter bells head

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

How do we feel about Jordan Roughead?

 

[Knightmare]

Oh but tell us more how Jeff Garlett is a walk up starter in our forward line with his 'elite' pressure. Pfft.

I don't use the term elite to describe Garlett. I'll use very good to describe Garlett and Champion Data's analysis of pressure acts, tackles and turnovers caused all are by position very good or better over a series of years.

And that's before the heavy scoreboard he offers by position which also is very good.

If I'm selecting a team to win today. Garlett is a best 22 player on any list in the competition.

 

[domin8tors]

At that price. I'd take Scully over Beams.

Brisbane NEED Beams. They need that leadership. Hodge has helped give he and Zorko the tools. They need those two to help the continued growth of that list. They can't give Beams up cheap - if they're smart.

and one way or another beams will come back to the pies even if his 30 at the end of his contract

 

[Jafo]

Could have had him for nothing as a FA, now we'd have to trade for him.

Unless he gets delisted

 

[sr36]

Brisbane NEED Beams. They need that leadership. Hodge has helped give he and Zorko the tools. They need those two to help the continued growth of that list. They can't give Beams up cheap - if they're smart.

If he's going cheap his ankle is stuffed and he'll no longer be an elite runner. Without elite running, Scully is pretty meh.

i don't think his best 22. but i think his important to structure eg) Grundy goes down he comes in , ditto cox. and he would come in handy against those tall forward
