[Elite Pete]

Guessing here on numbers but who are we paying next year? HR's deal can't kick in until 2027.

Allen $500k-$1m
McGovern $500k-$1m
Sheed $500k
Hunt, Petruccelle $300k-500k each
Jamieson, Rawlinson $100k each

Herald Sun predicting we have $5m of salary cap space for next year.

If they don’t get any players through the door they will re jig some contracts.

 

[bzparkes]

Ruckman?

Yeah. Building slowly this year but had a couple of monster games.

Young though, only drafted last year but went way later than expected.

Was the U18 AA ruckman.

 

[bzparkes]

Heard somebody say we have depth in Liam Ryah position.

Do they mean owies?

We move on ryan and we might only have a max 2 wins next season. Could have zero

Oh no, 100% more wins than this year

 

[Deepthroat]

You think if they hold him he just says **** you to all his team mates, and becomes uncompetitive...
Plenty of players have been held to contracts and played good footy

Give me one preseason where he's trained the house down.

 

[random260]

Champion, Newton, Owies, Crippa (one more year), Dewar can play there as well, Gross can spend time there while he builds a tank.

• first year players
• cripps (50 year old)
• owies (LOL)

Some depth. Seriously there no middle ground depth there. It's all extremes

 

[Elite Pete]

I'd rate another year of Liam Ryan being worth more for our shitty club than a second round pick in this year's draft. But I can't see another club rating him more highly than that.

Feel like this is another Darling situation where we'll let him go for unders out of respect for what he's given to the club.

That pick might have some nice points attached to bundle up for Suns owned Power pick

 

[bzparkes]

Herald Sun predicting we have $5m of salary cap space for next year.

If they don’t get any players through the door they will re jig some contracts.

We can bank 5% of it and pay 5% over the next year, if necessary.

 

[WCE777]

Ryan + Pick 19 for Pick 7, who says no?

Gives us another crack at Sharp or Cumming.

that works out about right in a trade but comes up short on being in contract.

 

[bzparkes]

• first year players
• cripps (50 year old)
• owies (LOL)

Some depth. Seriously there no middle ground depth there. It's all extremes

Brockman, Long.

Ryan isn't moving the needle between wins and losses for us.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

So the Ryan plan.

Ryan + hawks first for pick 8 (saints pick after Allen comp) and future second. (They lack any other picks of note this year.

GC trade
We get ports first (pick 7) - we give pick 20 (our second) hawks second (~32) and our third rounder. And a promise not to bid on their kids.

Draft hand
1, 2, 7, 8. Then NGA kids.

Getting saints and ports firsts moves us ahead of blues TDK compo

 

[UseR2006]

They want him bad if they are offering close to this.

 

[eaglevision]

What is Ryan worth in a trade or player in your opinion?

STK:
Ryan for Boxshall OR Barrat
Ryan and Hawks 2R for Wilson
Ryan for Dodson and F2
Ryan and our 2R for Travaglia

ESS:
Ryan and pick 1 for pick 5 and 6
Ryan and pick 32 for pick 25 and 26
Ryan for Zach Reid

 

[Deepthroat]

Ryan for a F2 looks likely to me.

 

[Patterz123]

I think the Cats will be trying to get into Marshall's ear, after TDK nominates the Saints.

The 1st rounder offered for Marshall, could then arrive to us for Ryan.

However would much prefer the pick upgrade option on Hawks 1st, as others have suggested above.

 

[bzparkes]

Ryan for a F2 looks likely to me.

Not for that contract length/money when he has a year to run on his current one.

 

[Elite Pete]

We can bank 5% of it and pay 5% over the next year, if necessary.

Probably did that this year with Warner in mind haha

 

[quackish]

Even an average ruck is going to give our mids a massive boost next year.

Get an average ruck so they have someone to rove to.

Eh, I really don’t think it changes much. Look at north. They have a top 5 ruck. They’re shit

 

[Deepthroat]

Not for that contract length/money when he has a year to run on his current one.

A 2nd rounder would be the result on that contract if he was a free agent.

 

[bzparkes]

A 2nd rounder would be the result on that contract if he was a free agent.

He's not a free agent though.

 

[TY24]

Shame Boxshall only just re-signed. Feel like a deal for him and Ryan with some pick swaps would work well for both parties

 

[Wooshaaaa]

Ryan has requested a trade to he saints

 

[Smotie2]

Offered him two years apparently. In negotiations with his manager was the last update. Some have said he has contract offers from Vic clubs as well

Thanks

 

[RanaNaved]

I think it is likely we go

1 - Duursma
2 - CDT
Hawks Pick - Farrow

And this board will explode

That's pretty close to what I want to happen.

 

[Deepthroat]

Eh, I really don’t think it changes much. Look at north. They have a top 5 ruck. They’re shit

Kangaroos second for clearances.

Eagles last.

 

[Deepthroat]

He's not a free agent though.

Correct, but I don't think we'll get a premium for his one year contract.
