List Mgmt. 2025 List Management discussion - part 2

[BrutThough]

Wonder if Bowey would move a year early?

Can't see Melbourne agreeing to that unfortunately.

Hastie? LOC?
Could they fit the bill?

It looked like LOC was set for that role earlier in the season but he was playing midfield at Sand by the end. Maybe to teach him how to find the ball and attack?

 

[CaptainRisky]

That’s the issue. He missed all the main stuff through injury. So your ranking his SANFL stuff

Jeeze you would want to watch these games live to get a better idea as he has no standout trait just watching that , very vanilla and not a lot of pace either.

 

[CaptainRisky]

Someone mentioning on Saintsational that we are into Cam Mackenzie, our former NGA player. Not a bad player, not sure how we can make it happen trade wise.

A young fella i know mentioned to me that we maybe chasing him a while back , hadn't heard anymore about it until now

Contracted and apparently Hawks want to keep him. Time will tell if it goes anywhere.

Dylan Alexander who lots seem to rate has MiniPou placed very highly. His speed certainly not an issue, in fact a strength (Great decathlete by all reports). Think he only scored lower than #1 potential Duursma who scored 30 (ratings are 1-3 btw)

 

[StCicatriz]

Pinched from the eagles board.

Values Ryan as a pick 33

no way should a first round pick be involved with ryan at all

I like Mini Pou. Though would be a tough call to use our first pick on him.

Looks can be deceiving i guess , just didn't look to have breakaway speed to me

If legitimate perhaps we rate him higher than who may get with our first in this years draft = straight swap for our 1st rd draft pick. Although any media he does Cam always looks pretty content at Hawthorn and there are always faceless rumours this time of year.

As I said. The issue is exposed form against the other kids.

Depending on what we do. I’d be okay with the gamble.

I think the problem atm is more that he doesn't know when and where to run. He plays a lot like an athlete who didn't always play footy growing up

He's naturally skillful imo but someone will need to teach him running patterns and midfield craft etc.

Which is why he's still seen as a raw prospect and isn't in the consensus top 10 or so. I'd love for us to take him purely for his ceiling

Would cost abit in salary compared to drafting a kid.

Knock on effect here could be windy for example.

Stop trying to get rid of Windy pls. McKenzie wouldn't cost that much $$$ wise he is not a permanent fixture in their side.

 

[StCicatriz]

does anyone have the interview ben williams did when NAS re-signed

 

[stavro#4]

How was I trying to get rid of Windy?

The average salary is 500k. Ryan is apparently coming across on 600k.

If we are fighting over a few hundred k for windy. How do you think we are going to make all these figures work?

[ScrappyDo]

I didn't mean afford as in cash , I'm not stupid , i meant taking a list spot for a bloke who will most likely never make it, id rather draft another project tall and start again as Roma wont go on forever

That's what l was talking about. Next year's program IMO

 

[heynow85]

Anyone know when our exit interviews are?

 

[OxSaint]

I still just want kids that are good kicks, we need players who get the ball from A to B quickly , not these damn floaters that hang in the air giving everyone a chance to spoil or intercept , penetrating kicks are so dangerous

This is the same thing the Murphy Ried badgers were saying last year.

 

[L_W_P]

Ideally we took Tauru at 7 then traded 8 for picks where we nabbed Reid and Shanahan. I agree, Shanahan looks very good, better than Most taken before him.

If we took Tauru at 7 then we probably aren't getting much of an offer on pick 8.

Nabbing Tauru was the carrot for teams to trade with us.

I would not rate him a better option than some young players that we already have.

He is contract for 2026 as well.

 

[Saint Shags]

Pinched from the eagles board.

Values Ryan as a pick 33

That would only be stomached if Hawthorn finishes 8th.

 

[stfan]

Lindsay is a plug and play prospect, but Pou2 probably more likely to become a game winner. Good news is that we're in the upper talent pool and will get a good'n.

As our pick 7 may get pushed back to possibly 12-16, is that still upper talent pool? Though yes it would seem to be some decent players in that range.

How far we get pushed back is hard to know with any confidence as there are just so many Academy and FS who could get called out and matched before our pick, plus WCE FA compo. And then with our pick the Saints could well call out several more as well.

 

[Klaatu]

Anyone know when our exit interviews are?

All clubs have to have their exit interviews by the Wednesday after there last game player association rules.

 

[SainterinSydney]

Anyone know when our exit interviews are?

I'd imagine it would be this week?
