List Mgmt. All Trades and Draft Part 2- Draft edition

[Big Cox 88]

2 First rounders for JK

Chris Masten and Josh Kennedy for Cripps and a first rounder.

I have and stand by my post

If that's how you saw it , fair enough. He actually did the turn on the oncoming Whitfield. Maybe most would have side stepped, but that may have been natural for him to do that turn. For anyone to say "lame" , pulease, his debut, grand final, did it for show ? Don't think so, just natural for him.

The current delisting from the senior list is Masten.

Seems very likely Mellen and Mutimer will go too. Plus we had an empty spot on the senior list. That takes us down to 36 senior players.

Kelly comes in. Watson has to be elevated. That’s 38.

We have picks 52 and 64. That gives us our 40 senior players.

Think it might be a good year to go in with 39 and hit the mid season draft.

Dark Sharks jokes are so old, joking about how old and repetitive they are has become old and repetitive

You would be the expert on old so ill take your word for it

 

[ROO DOGG]

Freo are about to draft a player better than Bennell in ability and minus the attitude in Liam Henry ..

Then in two years he will request a trade to us.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

If bhill doesnt get traded he would be filthy !
Imagine being all set up to move to melbourne then having to stay at freo and losing 300k a year

 

[wadistance]

Imagine thinking we paid offers for TK when picks 5 and 9 are on the table for Joe ******* Daniher

Late pick?

Time to bring back Partington!

 

[ROO DOGG]

Reckon this will officially be the most boring trade/draft period we've had for some while.

All the events of Tim Kelly occured early and now we have nothing to look forward to.

I guess it's the sacrifice for acquring a player of Kelly's calibre.

Just keep watching his highlights over and over again for the rest of the trade period, there is a nice video on youtube of every goal of his first season for anyone that doesn't know. But i'm sure you all have seen it already.

 

[ROO DOGG]

I don't rate Duggan very highly. But we don't offer up contracted players who have not asked to go. And Duggan has not asked to go. Nor are there any Vic clubs sniffing around him that we know about. So i doubt he is going anywhere.

2018 Duggan was awesome.

 

[CoastersFlag No.5]

If nothing else, we’ll be able to go on about ‘Jobs for the boys’ like they used to enjoy saying when Woosha ran the show.

Ballantyne was shot but Langdon and BHill were their starting wings. Them leaving is hardly ideal. Longmuir has his work cut out already.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

You cant blame freo for asking for pick 6 and a future 1st for hill .

When you get pick 2 for weller your reality gets warped

 

[Dylan82]

Yep we're done. Time to pull out the deck chairs, have a drink and watch the rest of the competition burn itself into the ground.

 

[Jootube]

How can you equate a flag with a single trade. Surely any trade not matter how one sided is worth a flag?

Because we've completely paused our youth intake for 2 years.
We've gone ALL-IN on winning a flag in the next 4-5 years.
But if we dont we have busted and cant buy back in for a number of years.

Don't think for 1 second I'm upset that we have Tim Kelly.
But we've paid a king's ransom for a single player who has 5 or so years of elite football left.

 

[Jootube]

No but you can deal in risk.

In this trade we seem to have ignored our downside risk. Tim kelly is at his peak, his risk is all downside, especially on a 6 year deal.

Trading away our future first exposes us to further downside risk, as we are expected to finish right at the top meaning it has been valued at (17-18) when theoretically it could be pick 1, and more conceivably pick 12-16. There’s no upside there even if we finish first.

Trading the other draft picks has exposed us to both upside and downside risk, depending how Geelong draft/who we would have drafted.

In 12 years time we could still be feeling the effects of this trade with up to 4 players who could have been in our squad not there.

We just have to win a premiership in the next 2-3 years for this to be acceptable otherwise we’ve crippled our long term future for no reason.

I really can't say it better than this.

That was one long week. They are a salty and precious bunch on the GFC board. But it's not surprising when they share the initials with a depressing time in the world. But it was worth it
Worst thing about having a week off was missing out on 100s of likes by CM9000.
So what did i miss everyone. Do we have Kelly yet and did we lose 4 first rounders and Brander?

I keep forgetting that *in' Conca is still on an AFL list

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Seems like the picks in this draft have little worth compared to previous years . A lot of teams prefering to keep older guys on rather than going deeper into the draft .

It doesnt seem like a weak draft from our perspective because there is a good 10 -12 WA boys that will be drafted but the vic sides who make up 70% of the draftable players were very weak this year especially vic metro .

Our picks are going to get the bones of a picked clean carcass.

We can hit the mid season draft anyway (or sign a rookie in the supplementary period) if Rioli’s going to be out all year.

 

[Yamumluvsbigcox]

Freo board patting themselves on the back for getting pick 2 instead of three 2nd rounders from gold coast for weller . Hold firm !

Thank you freo for Oallen ryan and petracelle

You missed out on 100 likes from CM9000

 

[Coasters7]

So this is the dealio. What do we do?? We have a third from next year we could play with also.

I actually really liked this draft for us with some good WA kids potentially available in the 10-30 range in Roberson, rivers, Jackson and sharp. Would really love to find a way to get one of those boys but not sure it’s possible anymore.

Alternatively we could cull the rookie list harrrrd and try and build through there.

Reckon we’d get some serious value for pick 234..

Strait swap for Dusty, we came out like bandits.

Pickett has just started his spin around Marc Murphy for the season opener at the MCG in 2020.

Lycett must be about to get traded to Richmond then because he's the only ruckman that could jump early enough to get him the ball.
