Strategy Trade and List management Thread Part 2 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

Player power has now gone too far.

How long until the can be traded with no consent..? Bring on MLB style trading.

 

[Testekill]

Couldn't we have packaged B. Ellis, Lloyd, and 37 for Dunkely?

Or, could we still potentially package B. Ellis and 37 for him?

This or surely Sier is gettable?

Made me laugh

Oh hell no, Dunkley has just come into his own as a midfielder.

 

[Kony Abbott]

If we're not looking at exploiting the GWS salary cap issues I'll be very upset.

If 53 could get Scully then surely pick 63 or 82 gets Finlayson?

 

[Unorth]

We probably just got our leading goalkicker for next season with pick 64, after getting last season's leading goalkicker in the rookie draft. We're on fire, I reckon.

 

[Dogsman16]

If we were to lose Dahlhaus, Rough and Adams and only got Lloyd and Duryea in I’d feel pretty underwhelmed.

We need something else for me to be pleased.
Fair way to go though.

 

[Dogs_R_Us]

Serious question - why on earth has that taken 6 days to execute?
Everyone knew that was happening before trade week started.

Because that's not how trade week works. There are multiple options for every club, working out what picks to offer and which to accept, watching offers of players and negotiating, often depending on what other clubs are prepared to do. If only it was a simple swap, but you don't want to give away a pick or player until you've explored everything. I would say the list managers would get no sleep for a week.

I have had a vision that the 'big fish' many seem to crave will be announced tomorrow.



'Vision' is very much a loose term, and may have been brought on by a combination of substances ingested, but during a trade period, any 'vision' is a good vision, non?

The problem with our list right now, is the fact we still have players’ like Honeychurch on it. Seriously, the fact a guy like that gets regular games, 18 months after a flag is very worrying imo.

reason he got so many games as you say is due to injuries. poor old honey, noone loves him.

 

[Mattdougie]

Is it over yet?

 

[GreatSouthWest]

LLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOOOOOOYYYYYDDDDD

 

[Yojimbo]

Is it over yet?

Two more days, 8:30 PM on Wednesday, they should make it 24 hours like that TV show and then watch them squirm.

Is Glaeken actually Romanian for Scrag City by any chance?

 

[perro_loco]

It’s like watching my fat mate try to pick up at the club years ago

He has a crack but in the end you know it’s going to be a nil result with lots of “so close” “next time” talk.

Just end it and go to the draft and then get 2019 over as soon as possible and try again

Why? 2 players in that want to be here over 2 players that don’t

 

[Pannalstaroz]

Have you heard anything about how our last few days might go?

No mate. TBH when Wingard said no and we were linked to Duryea and Lloyd, I gave up on this trade period.

65 pages! You is crazy. Why for you do this to yourselves?

Because I’m crazy

 

[stefoid]

Decided that I want us to get Burton and 15 for our 7, and then Burton goes on to become a gun mid forward for us.

I dont care! shut up!

Dahlhaus has been shithouse for some time. Ditto Roughead. Adams hasn't been able to stay on the park, ever. I'm not devastated about losing any of these guys. We got some compensation for Dalhaus and will get something in a trade for Adams. There is a reason Roughead didn't attract any free agency offers.

Whilst I don't really want Duryea, I'm happy with Lloyd who in joining us has already improved our shambolic 2018 forwardline.

This need that some seem to have that we must bring in a "name" player is not something that I can relate to. We won a premiership without signing a "name" player and there is no reason we can't do it again the same way.

 

[Golden_6]

Wonder if Jason McCartney had access or was aware of of GWS severe cap problems before he took the job? It would be funny if they sold him the job and then when he accepted and sat down to review the contracts, it was too late to realise what he had got himself into.

 

[footyfan000001]

Duryea deal to be done tomorrow according the list manager guru Chicken Nixon.

Familiar story, sadly familiar. If only I did not vomit in her mouth when we were kissing.

Gotta love those "we should package shit player X, shit player Y, and an irrelevant pick for 1x Good Player"
