List Mgmt. 2020 Draft and Trade Hypotheticals

[tombomb]

Buddy or no Buddy. We’ll play finals next year. Bookmark it.

I like your confidence, but I dont see us leapfrogging all of Freo, GWS, Carlton, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Collingwood and the Bulldogs unless Franklin has a significant influence.

Unless something unexpected happens in the next 2 weeks ...

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

The system seems to put more emphasis on the annual salary rather than the total value of the contract.

I don't think there should be compensation picks at all... All I'm saying is that as the system stands it is an understandable result.

There certainly shouldn’t be compensation picks when a club has been offered 2 1st rounders for a wantaway player who the club wouldn’t extend a contract for.

It's more about the Daniher pick than the Crouch pick. 2nd round compo for Crouch is about right given history.

The Daniher rort was ridiculous.

We won’t have to leapfrog all of those. A couple will crash out.

There shouldn't be compensation picks at all for restricted free agents (and probably unrestricted as well).

Essendon and Adelaide have the option to match and force a trade. Otherwise they have the benefit of freeing up salary cap space.

 

[Blacky]

Not you’re not. You’re just talking negative and mainly nonsensical dribble

I just think you don’t want to plant your flag in an opinion so you can always pretend we are where we should be.

 

[Cadsky]

No pick 2 for Adelaide reported on 9 news melb

 

[tombomb]

I could add in Essendon and Hawthorn as well. They, plus Freo, GWS, Carlton, Melbourne, Gold Coast, Collingwood and the Bulldogs will all be expecting to finish in front of us next year.

 

[Bandicoot]

Not sure , surely a first ?

You are obviously joking.

Adelaide fans are another species

Band 3 crowies. A little off the mark

We are far better placed than either of Essendon and Hawthorn. Add GWS. That’s 3. I think Melbourne are in trouble.

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

Even Dermie said we’re a much better side than our ladder position.

I think we are better placed long term than all of them. But still think next year is going to be tough ... (unless Buddy).

 

[BloodySwan]

Crouch compo is band 3. Saints contract must be real low

Heeney up forward. Blakey up the ground. Sinclair in the square.

Good, I hope they get fired up.

We clearly have no influence over AFL house, maybe a club like Adelaide will actually take it to the VFL mafia and call out some of ridiculous advantages Vic teams get.

Crazy what salary Daniher can command

Heeney tick. Blakey hopeful, Sinclair ... you are just trolling me now.

Too late once the call is made. You can whinge but they won't back down.

 

[FreeAgent1]

Crows won’t match. Trading day 1 will have pick 23 traded for 16 and some s**t player.

They won't match, but they will do a trade? That's some conspiracy stuff.

It will be interesting to see who drops further next year. I could definitely see the Pies imploding next year after the Treloar thing. I think the Bombers will struggle like the Pies, the culture seems shot from the top down. Freo, Gold Coast and Carlton seem like they are on the way up. GWS and Melbourne could go either way.

Adelaide, Hawthorn and North will all be fighting for the wooden spoon.

I think next year if we have a mostly healthy list and our list development continues we'll be in the 8-12 range.

Technically the trade will be for player and involve at 2021 pick swap to obscure intent

Nah
You are showing your age.
Outdated.

The new footy is like soccer with a touch of rugby. Except no offside. Line out like rugby but angle forward not back no offside and soccer and punch forward till there is time for a 10 m kick for a catch (supposed to be 15m).
Oh bit of basketball tossup only the boys who put their hand up can contest.
That's the formula without a fit Franklin.
