List Mgmt. 2025 Trade/FA Thread (Cont’d)

[BillyElliott]

simpkin as a inside midfielder is a quality footballer, him distributing to both daicos is exactly what he was made to do, also he’s last 3 games on the wing were elite so pretty versatile.

How much is he on?

 

[BillyElliott]

Oh yes him too.
Unless for a few lol

There's always few outliers.

Or contrarians

 

[No SPIN]

And yet you wanted Oliver, who was a big fan of the 3am binge.

I now know why you’re a teacher - you starved as a comedian.

 

[kanga kanga kanga]

How much is he on?

most people think around 800-900 but he’s contract was front ended so won’t be as much now.

 

[yeah man]

Good - Did not want him

Now we might actually do the Buller Trade now

f*ck you make me laugh out loud almost as frequently as Ralphy does mate

F2 take it or leave it.

 

[MooreDaicos]

I remember Simpkin being very good in the middle, I wondered why he dropped off, now I know.
I hate Simpkin we def shouldn't get him

 

[nickyds35]

- Paying Simpkin $600k and North paying him $300k and getting him for a 3rd rounder - YES

- Paying Simpkin $900k and getting him for a third rounder - HARD NO

- Paying Simpkin $900k and paying a future first - WE HAVE COMPLETELY LOST OUR MARBLES

 

[FromTheBoundaryLine]

I’d been fine with Simpkin if we went down that road. One of the few North players I notice when we play them. Having said that those games are pretty much all I’ve seen of him. Still much prefer him over Oliver.

 

[Leigh aka Frogs]

Should we go after Aleer? Seems like a good defensive option

What would he cost roughly?

 

[Everybody Panic]

Luck
Father Sons
Pendles/Sidebottom

Beams leaving and netting us Degoey and Crisp which funny enough was the last good draft Dekka was apart of.

These superstars need to be convinced alot more then a Perryman.

Why can't we land the absolute elite? Always seem to be the 2nd option.

Absolute elite? Like 2 times All Australian half back Dan Houston? Or does that not count? I think people just enjoy rage baiting themselves into being angry because a rumour turns false.

 

[Bramax]

And also interesting it’s all alright for Trac to move clubs mid contract but not one of their own (GC).

Bit rich isn’t it.

 

[Apex36]

What would he cost roughly?

GWS were asking a future second from the Saints

 

[Everybody Panic]

Our last premiership side had Hill (Norm), Howe, Frampton, Markov, Lipinski, Cameron (Copeland), Mitchell, Crisp, Elliot and Hoskin Elliot in it. Only 10 players. We sure suck at trading/free agency! Since then we've added Schultz, Perryman and Houston... Get some perspective.

 

[GreekLunatic]

for sympkin a future 2nd is ok

 

[Bramax]

I’m a yes to Simpkin on the assumption it’s an Oliver type situation where the Roos are picking up the tab on one side of the deal. I don’t think it can be underestimated how awful that environment has been for most of his time there and I’d be interested to see how he handles an environment that stimulates him ala the indigenous all stars.

That’s a fair point.
All that talent on the field that day and Simpkin was BOG.

 

[Pragmatic Shill]

What would he cost roughly?

GWS reportedly wanted a F2.

Yes our recruiting from other clubs has been top notch

 

[Everybody Panic]

Bit rich isn’t it.

They explained it clearly. Trac wants out, and Dees are okay with it. Suns are not okay with Humphrey going (as of yet). Basically they're targeting a gettable player and keeping their own talent that's under contract. I'd want our club to do the same. Just because we signed Houston (a contracted player) doesn't mean I would want the club to just bend over and let Daicos leave.

According to a North supporter who posted on here, he was rumoured to be on $8-900k a year but it was front loaded.

 

[satty]

I would stay far away from leek aleer. We need to focus on finding and developing defenders in the 200cm range, like billy and moore.

 

[nickyds35]

That’s a fair point.

It wasn’t a serious game. It was a preseason hit and giggle.

 

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Reef same size. Let’s have a crack again with him fit.

 

[Leigh aka Frogs]

According to this story: “..Trade Radio's Damian Barrett added that the reason the Saints pulled out of the deal was because they were unwilling to part with a future second-round pick..”

Who knows whether there’s accuracy to that. But a second rounder seems appropriate to me
