List Mgmt. 2021 Trade & List Management Thread I

[Merlin007]

Don’t we have a random chat thread anymore...

yeah, fair enough... sometimes wires get crossed (no pun intended)

if there's an overarching goal to the "north can't land a big fish" narrative, it's to embarrass the footy department and discourage them from making those offers in the first place. it's not that the offers were turned down, every club makes offers to big name players that get turned down, that's just a normal part of contract negotiations, and how those guys end up on such big salaries. it's that certain members of the media feel that north should just learn their place and not step out of line. the lesson is to ignore them and do what you were going to do anyway.

....so you think we should ?

 

[Liam Boy]

....so you think we should ?

if you're serious about winning flags you should be trying to build a list through whatever means are available. if that means offering big money to get great players to the club, that's absolutely what the footy department should be doing. we didn't lose anything by making offers to martin, kelly and gaff. if the club is letting media narratives dictate their decision making then they aren't serious.

I'd rather target and miss out on Martin, Kelly, Gaff, H McKay than target and get Brad Hill, Zak Jones and Dan Hannerberry or Zac Williams and Mitch McGovern on contracts they are not worth.

[Le Grille]

I think we have the freedom to offer Harry a contract.

As if we're gonna take advice from:

A Bunnings staff

B Buckley!

Biggest thing going for us getting H.mckay is they get Ross Lyon as coach.
Hey Harry - you want to play under a guy that doesn’t worry about scoring……. Come to north and kick bags

Polec?

 

[bennymate]

Polec?

Yeh we copped an L there.

 

[Mjs94]

Polec?

Definitely the wrong call which really what my point was - offer those big contracts to the big players. If you can't get them go to the draft. Imagine if we had traded our pick up and had Ben King at FF right now.

 

[travelli]

That's it.....who's gonna start the "Harry to North Melbourne" thread?

 

[Only Forwards]

I would be happy for us to pay a premium to walk Harry through the PSD.

 

[Shinboner1]

Make it happen rawlings!

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

I would be happy for us to pay a premium to walk Harry through the PSD.

FA: Kelly
PSD: McKay
National Draft: Horne

The AFL would de-register us.

 

[DesertRoo]

FA: Kelly
PSD: McKay
National Draft: Horne

The AFL would de-register us.

I still think we should be putting our hand out for a PP..

 

[DEVO]

FA: Kelly
PSD: McKay
National Draft: Horne

The AFL would de-register us.

Do we really want or need Kelly?

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Do we really want or need Kelly?

Yes.

 

[Harris 10]

Yes.

Yes as well from me

 

[Mjs94]

Do we really want or need Kelly?

Depending on cost, yes

 

[shinboner magic]

If we do get Kelly - we can front load the crap out of his contract
