2025 List Management Discussion - Part 3

Now that our season is over, and news is starting to break - it's time for a fresh thread.

This thread is to discuss all things list management - trades, draft, free agency, delistings and more.
As we are now officially in our off-season, we'll be wanting to keep this thread more strictly on-topic than the previous iterations.
Be respectful. You are allowed to disagree with someone - but play the ball, not the man. Repeat offenders will have their posting rights revoked.

Thanks to Lore once again for this incredibly useful spreadsheet.

2025 KEY DATES
Free Agency Period: Friday, October 3rd - Friday, October 10th
Trade Period: Monday, October 6th - Wednesday, October 15th
AFL Draft: Wednesday, November 19th - Thursday, November 20th

A bit out there - don't hate on me - but with the loss of Jimmy, I'd like to see Garcia tried as a small defender. IMO he would be more valuable in that position for us than as another mid.
We're thin on other options and will have enough midfield depth.

He was one of our best in the tough stretch and he looked quality with ball I. Hand when he came back in. Honestly. Now you want to move him.

Thanks for that. I started doing something similar beginning with 1987 (start of the national comp) but never finished it.
It’s amazing that Carlton and Essendon will always be considered successful clubs because they won flags 80+ years ago.
Richmond is surprising. Three flags in four years and they’re still only 41.1%. Have to give some credit to the Cats, 62.1 is amazing.

I think between 2000 and 2010 we were close to the best. Now I’m sad.

If JSOS can get his body right, it is an absolute no brainer--sign him up.

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

We've played in 7 draws since 2000.

2000 v West Coast
2002 v Sydney
2007 v Western Bulldogs
2010 v Hawthorn
2010 v Collingwood
2011 v Richmond
2018 v Greater Western Sydney

I think those numbers are incorrect.

R21 2015 vs Geelong was a draw. The same game Stevie J got ran down in the goal square by Shane Savage.

He is injured a hell of a lot.

One thing we definitely miss in our current team from that period (fingers crossed on Max) is we had some of the best forwards going around at the time--Gehrig, Kossie, Rooey and Milney. We need to get this aspect of the team right.

I recall drawing with the Hawks. Could not say if it was 2010 or not though. When McEvoy kicked the equalizing goal unopposed from the throw in.

The St Kilda mafia at work.

Dr Spaceman can you put something together with Fat Tony as Bassatt/RTB when he is talking to Marge (Kane Cornes) about the pretzel money lol

 

[OxSaint]

Jsos will have a big impact on our ball movement. Hammer has had an admirable year down back but he is a big handbrake on our ability to rebound. His ball use is a big reason why I don’t think Hammer is good enough in defence to play in a finals team.

 

[Joffaboy]

Imagine if we also sign JSOS. St Kilda v Carlton will become a new level of rivalry.

Regardless of the hype, at the beginning of the 21st century, nobody wanted to go to Geelong, once they became a decent team and has continued success, they attract plenty of high profile recruits. They are not a bad model to emulate.

Is McKenzie better than Windhager?

 

[number35]

more names to be linked to us, some of which are big.

truly exciting times.

Seems there's finally attraction to come play at St Kilda.

Mark Allen receives explosive text about Charlie Curnow's future

The future of Carlton forward Charlie Curnow is one of the hot topics in football at the moment. According to Channel 9’s Tom Morris, Curnow “raised the prospect” of being traded during an exit meeting with the club, a request that was reportedly immediately denied. But speaking on 3AW Drive...

At this point we are just taking the piss

Nope. Potential is a dirty word, Windhager has definitely shown more. Think we just want a shiny new toy, I’ll take Flanders over McKenzie.

As it is, I’m betting they’re our round 1 match up.

 

[Mat Mann]

Except he is always injured…

I think you are minimising how serious his medical issue actually was.
