    Strategy Trade and List Management Thread Part 8 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

    Having not looked on this thread yesterday, that was a massive task to get through. Good riddance JUH. Glad we stood firm on the price for Buku and kept him. I don’t think our issue is how we go in the trade period, I think it’s that we don’t put in the ground work, identify gaps and...

    Could he provide speed and run on a wing? Allowing Williams to settle in the back 7?

    He’s been played out of position all year so his 25 stats won’t be great. He’s a small defender who got pushed out by the recruitments of Nobel and Rioli. So got played as a small forward most of the year. Gives us that lockdown defender for shutting down oppositions small forwards

    Sniff ruining Geelong’s mad Mondays and requiring the club to post an official public statement hilarious. “They let me be myself” Maybe they shouldn’t haha

    Maybe Twomey is suggesting Darcy will be bid on in the second round as the first round is meant to be like 30 picks. So mid second round could be 45

    Reports are this draft is very poor and most of the talent are tied to clubs already. If the cost of butts is a first rounder this year id be doing it. He is no superstar but you have to pay more for key position players. Also, the benefit isn’t going to be his game and performances alone...

    Worth the punt and sounds like saints had to cough up more cash to keep him. Now we need to up our offer to Butts to tempt him. Not St Kilda delusional money but enough to make him think about exiting.

    We all know we will play Geelong in Geelong as per usual. Last 3 seasons we have had 5 interstate games plus gather round. Hope we don’t play in: Darwin or at the Gabba Dream interstate for me would be: Eagles in Perth Port in Adelaide GWS in Canberra Swans in Sydney Hawks in...

    Interesting they have so much money to splash. NWM - 2 mil a season TDK - 1.6-1.7 mil a season Silvagni - 8-850k a year Aleer - 7-800k a year Ryan - 6-700k a year Add to that macare who is on around 800k a year from our contract for him. Sinclair would be on decent coin. Now Flanders on...

    So club knows where he sits and don’t rate him but re-contracted him last year for 2 more years even though other clubs were sniffing around and we could have got a decent return for him, especially from the eagles.

    Saints are in purgatory because they keep doing this. It’s rinse and repeat. They hit 2 drafts then top up so they literally never get out of that 6-12 range. They top up to make finals and then don’t have the talent to win a flag. Surely you need to hit a minimum of 3-4 drafts bringing in...

    Not an optimist on that and I’d probably rather it was already, not keen to watch us do the same in an elimination final if we somehow got through

    Autopsy Dogs season ends with dire loss to Freo

    Why haven’t we recruited and aggressively pursued guys to fill massive needs? We keep going to the draft and prioritising the draft unless guys fall in our lap or we go after other teams discards. We’ve need defensive options last season and this season yet we haven’t been aggressive to get...

    Our defending opposition transition from their D50 to their F50 isn’t that bad: Opposition go from their D50 to their F50 21.1% of the time which is the 4th lowest percentage. The issue is when they do they score 9.3% of the time which is the 10th worst along side Gold Coast. We also allow a...

    Croft is not slow in the slightest. Richards when resting forward isn’t slow. We are the highest scoring team in the competition with Darcy being a year older and another preseason under his belt, Naughton hopefully having an uninterrupted preseason, flea back and natural development of Croft...

    Autopsy Dogs season ends with dire loss to Freo

    Why though? After 2016 we were one of the youngest premiership teams by the end of 2018 we were doing a mini rebuild. 2021 we were a team at its prime, by 2023 we’re were in a mini rebuild. So why are we constantly challenging for one year then can’t back it up the following and transition...

    Assuming flea is fit next year. F: west Darcy Dolan/Croft/Arty(if on the list) HF: Weightman Naughton resting mid I wouldn’t say we are stacked but if flea is fit our forward line is the least of our worries if Bevo actually selects the best mix. Natural development from Dolan, Croft and...

    I wouldn’t be going anywhere near a ruck until the rule changes get announced. If the information circulating about last touch out of bounds and requiring rucks to jump come in investing in a wrestling, crash and bash type ruck would be insanity. Also let’s be honest Beveridge is not replacing...

    Autopsy Dogs season ends with dire loss to Freo

    The allowing the opposition to exit the front of the stoppage whether it be centre bounces or around the ground and having no one defensive side has been killing us since 2021 GF and we just refuse to fix it or use a sweeper. When we have a run on against us too, watch how often we just chuck...

    Autopsy Dogs season ends with dire loss to Freo

    Well you pretty much are throwing up excuses. JUH is likely to never play AFL again and treloar is probably closer to retirement than playing next year it’s probably 60/40 so likely neither will be back to help next year. Cody is a big in but our offence isn’t the issue. Duryea was already...

    At some point do we have to ask the question of whether it’s that we just draft players incapable of defending or is it that our coaching staff are incapable of developing players defensively. Foregoing that we clearly need a better defensive game plan and structures. If you look at our best...

    Well I came into this year in what I thought was a win/win situation. We are finally good and perform to the level we should - win Or We suck and Beveridge gets the sack and we have the opportunity to get a coach in that can develop defensive structures. Well we aren’t good and we have...
