List Mgmt. 2019 Trade Thread - Part III

[SaintsSeptember]

Marshalls time off ground during 2019 averaged less than 3 minutes per quarter.

I feel that Buddy might be at St Kilda next year. Just a feeling. Too many things a lining up.

Every year you come up with a bold trade claim and every year you’re wrong

Im sure this year will be different

You keep doing you John2010 and other numbers I love you

Buddy in as a FA as a direct replacement for bruce (for pick 12 which is used on b crouch) is an idea I can definately get behind.

We then play membery and king up the ground on the wings, with buddy at chf and resting ruck at FF.

Footskill firsts…

Wilkie Austin Savage
Coffield Carlisle Roberton
Hill Hannebery Billings
Gresham Membrey Lonie
Parker King Battle

Marshall Clark Acres

Ross, Dunstan, Steele, White

Emg Ryder, Sinclair, Long, Geary, Bytel

An interesting angle.
My only comments are that Bytel is potentially the best all round kick on our team.
Ross and Dunstan are shocking by foot and wouldn’t make the emergencies.
Rice is a great kick.

Maybe I’m misunderstanding your post but surely you don’t mean you want to play Marshall, Ryder, King, Bruce and Membrey in the same team?

That’s too tall. We’d get murdered out of our forward 50.

Nah; with that clunking battalion the only time the ball will be coming out of forward 50 will be when the ump's running it back to the centre

 

[tbarker]

Webster has been a bit stiff here...... but how do you fit them all in.

I forgot about Jimmy! Has to be in the best kicking team. He is derided for turning it over when going for the near impossible. That is not a bad kick - simply pushing the envelope.

Marshalls time off ground during 2019 averaged less than 3 minutes per quarter.

86.2% TOG average in a 120min game = a bit over 4mins per quarter average.

Perhaps the club are (rightly) worried that such a load is unsustainable over the long term?

Especially playing finals- we would want marshall fresh, not spent come september.

Not to mention perhaps marshall could be even MORE of an explosive gun in the ruck with fresher legs (as well as dangerous fwd) if he was playing more like 60-70% TOG in the ruck, 30-20% TOG resting fwd, 20-10% bench?

Everyday I check this thread every 30 minutes hoping I haven’t missed something. For my own sanity I may need to go cold turkey until the Monday after the GF when things actually happen.

Doesn't Buddy have about 6 years left on his contract?

Not that long- 2 or 3, ending 2022-23.

Edit: last year is 2022, so 3 more seasons- supposedly the breakdown is:
2020- 1.5mil
2021- 1.4mil
2022- 1mil

If we made the swans eat 900k of that total would we take buddy for 3mill over the next 3 years if we got pick 12 for bruce?

I say yes

Hey that's my hair-brained scheme! Cook up your own controversial trade!

[StCicatriz]

Probably got poached by Carlton.

 

[mightymalaka]

Lenny had a heart condition.

Sure did!

They found that it was bigger than Phar Lap's!

I heard of North and none of that makes sense

[StCicatriz]

What are you doing saints fans?

For a brief, fleeting moment yesterday you had the best damned trade thread the world had ever seen.

We are now poorer for its deletion.

that's what i thought!!! what a read!!!!

then you go to post and you get a burning sensation when you type and it never goes away.

thanks Saints BigFooty, could've warned me!

 

[Ducky Tie]

That’s a parody account.

 

[StCicatriz]

i'd take on buddy for 3 years just for the promotional material, like nic nat to wce

EDIT: looks like i've been scammed by saints bigfooty

 

[stavro#4]

That’s a parody account.

The point is that everyone has heard a rumour of buddy coming home. It’s on the north board aswell.

 

[Connorn99]

We also said that we really want 50,000 members next year. One man can help us to that.....

The big Budweiser

 

[Lenny2020]

If we got Buddy for two or three years I’d cry. Can he get fit again? That’s the biggest problem.

Surely we ask the question. He’s one of the greatest of all time.

 

[gringo2011]

I feel that Buddy might be at St Kilda next year. Just a feeling. Too many things a lining up.

He missed more than half his games with soft tissue issues and was s**t for plenty of his others. He's 32 and on a million dollars a year. Lethers is just trying to send us to Tasmania quicker if he lets the AFL salary dump for the Swans old banged up players.

 

[mighty_sainters]

Probably a stupid thing to say and many will disagree, but if we only got 10 games out of Buddy a season I’d be all for it.

We need someone to put us back on the map because unfortunately we’re that far off it.

If you guaranteed me no off field indiscretions and 10-12 games a season for 3 years I’ll bite your hand off.

We need some PR and a few superstars to take us back to the 05-10 days.
