List Mgmt. 2018 Trade and Free Agency Discussion

[Marc_Remillard]

Stretch goes no where. His run and carry is something we need

Yes, more run and carry

 

[stabler]

I can't be the only one disturbed by the lack of Gus signing. The hell is he waiting for

To finish a really good season? I'm not worried at all, he would be doing himself a disservice to sign now. If he leaves we'd be well compensated anyway.

He is probably eye balling a chunk of our Gaff money. If he keeps playing well we should give him some of it.

 

[The Dr]

Let's say we don't land Gaff. Who's our Plan B?

 

[schmuttt]

Since the attraction of Gaff is we can get him for free ther isn’t much else on offer this year.

So there's not another free agent who'd add to our team? Dahlhaus? Atley? Harbrow? Duryea? Conca? Lycett?

 

[schmuttt]

Not really - it means we can target other free agents.

None of which fill the same need Gaff does.

No plan B.

Gaff or nothing I reckon this year

We need to keep bringing in kids, I don't believe in the draft necessarily but we don't have alot of young talent in the reserves. Alot of 21-24 crap. Tyson Bugg Wagner JKH Keilty Smith Weid Vince King Pedo etc.

Could delist all of those guys tomorrow and you would hardly notice aside from Casey dropping off.

I mean we started doing that last year, Fritsch is only 21 and Baker turns 20 this year with Spargo/Petty both the normal age.

Baker and Petty are the only 2 young players on the list now that are exciting. I think we can afford to take some more Hunt like punts now on blokes.

I think we will keep drafting kids anyway, we have enough mature bodies. Would love to invest in some high ceiling high risk small forwards, a lot of them are very talented but don’t alwahs work out due to the position being so difficult to play.

Dahlhaus and Harbow both could fill that need.

If a bloke named Rioli ever gets past one of our picks again I'll lose it.

Only a couple more years till Kobe Farmer is eligible...

 

[The Dr]

Dahlhaus and Harbow both could fill that need.

They're the two I'm thinking off as well.

Possibly Duryea - Nev's not getting any younger and I like Duryea as a small defender and he kicks it nicely too.

 

[schmuttt]

Dahlhaus and Harbow both could fill that need.

Harbrow yes, Dahlhaus no.

 

[PerfectFooty]

Harbrow yes, Dahlhaus no.

Dahlhaus probably has more time in the game left at 25, compared to Harbrow nearing 30

So where’s Weids going?

Collingwood get Lynch and he’ll be competing for spots, GC will be dying for FF and will pay well (but who’d go there). Collingwood don’t get Lynch and he’d be a prime target for them.

He’s killing it in the Vfl and we can’t play him at risk of being too tall (I believe).

Doubt he's going anywhere. At worst he remains developing for depth, he'll likely improve and increase in value if we do want to trade him or best case - he becomes a gun forward and Hogan a star chb..

I just can’t see how he’d want to stay now.

 

[Tulip]

I just can’t see how he’d want to stay now.

Don't think he's getting a game anywhere else to be honest, maybe Carlton.

 

[schmuttt]

Year too early to trade Weid I think.

 

[Topkent]

Apart from being a number 7 pick what does he add to any side right now?
