List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

[Scodog10]

That’s not true

13 will go elsewhere because it’s being held for this trade. 23 is tied up with Rioli. 29 is available if this falls over.

 

[Pistol Night]

That's be good for a business card - would sure make you stand out from the pack

Yes..............I'm bored.

Do one for Cornes.

 

[Lockyer24]

McCrae needs ready players.

Window is open for another run for premiership

Want and need is two different things.

Debateable - we finished 9th and are even older next year.

Also has to be some query in Mitchell and De Goey getting up and going fully.

Backline feels a big defender short.

McStay and Checkers together is a big plus, but again injury has started to bite one or the other.

There’s no doubt our best last year was good enough to be amongst the final four and it’s an even competition, but I think we are actually more likely to stay out of the top 4 then get back into it. Just on looking at it critically. But it’s all a gamble either way.

 

[pablo disco bar]

Yeah I get it, but Carlton are supposed to be a top 4 contender and was top 4 premiership candidate last season... and now they have a top 5 pick.

Pies can take a season off, rest Naicos every second game and tank for a top 5 pick if there is a real can't miss stud.

Tanking is unfortunately a strategy, even for teams that don't need it.

I'm confused
On SEN West Coast supporters are spewing on the deal.

Seems Carlton won that trade

 

[upnsmoke]

Rumour blues gonna offer pick 3 for Petrecca.

Then hopefully Trac demands trade to Pies next off season

 

[cakewalk06]

I just can’t understand why they’d be so intent on putting their eggs in one basket in such an even draft.
Last time they had two mid first round picks they got Curnow and McKay. Last time they had pick 3 they got Paddy Dow.
They could have obtained Houston for less than they’ve paid for pick 3. It’s a really strange move in my book.

Surely their lack of a chase for Houston indicates their salary is fit to burst, and they have to sign De Konig next year. I guess Houston's commanding 800k-plus?

 

[Ugene41]

Carlton have sold the farm for pick 3. Would want to get the pick right

Yea, the upside can be great if they get a Serong type for example. But still also massive downside if it ends up a Will Phillips/Paddy Dow type.

Meanwhile Houston is already elite and HBFs with great kicks can play well into their 30s (ie Zorko/Hurn)

 

[eddiesmith]

If the deal falls over then the first move for the new president should be to remove our support for them wearing the PBs in any games.

Deal was done in a Derrimut cafe

That would be a really wanky and petty move.

 

[TW Sherrin]

He’s OOC. If Geelong can’t strike a deal he is. We’d just strike earlier.

I know where you are coming from but imo he wont get to the draft

Carlton flogs even trying to steal our trade negotiation headquarters

 

[TradeDraft]

Could Richmond get involved in the Houston Trade to make a 4 Way Trade?

 

[Scodog10]

Do one for Cornes.

Job title old campaigner!

To what end?

Josh gabelich. Reliable journo

Grandson of Collingwood premiership player (1958) and captain (1964-65), Ray Gabelich.

 

[TW Sherrin]

Take Haynes out of the Carlton side then too.

Perryman is at no cost besides cap space. There is no outgoing there. He is irrelevant to the cost of our forgone draft capital and departing players.

if you are contending or a top 4 team cap space is more important than draft capital. spending it on role players is a hug risk.

Pies literally just signed 25 year old and trying for a 28 year old to extend the window. Pies are doing a Geelong and Swans rebuild.... basically top 8 while finding replacements and young guns

And about 1/3 of the size

 

[swoop42]

The Saints just traded 27 for 32 + 45 from Brisbane.

Is this part of a bigger play?

Pick 13 or simply to do with getting a deal for Macrae done?

 

[HFF]

Hats off to the Blues list management team
Smelt blood in the water and they feasted in Eagles.

All these former Richmond people in these positions are really doing a number on their current clubs

Media seems to think it has something to do with the Macrae deal.

Hmmmm..............you're stretching my graphic design skills here lol

I think they’ve done ok certainly better than Carlton.

Carlton gave a 2024 1st, 2025 1st, 2024 2nd and Owies for 3 and some picks in the 60’s. WC slid back 9 spots in an even draft for Owies and Baker.
