    Mega Thread 2019 List Management, Free Agency & Trade thread

    Ok so 7 - out 3 retirements, 3 delist and one trade. We bring in 4 via trade period and have promoted up from rookie list Duman and Bannfield so that leaves one vacancy with all players on main list contracted for 2019 and we have a max of five picks in Nat Draft so where do the other...

    We need a rebrand

    So true its about the culture of expectation of success and then planning accordingly and having the right personnel in place to achieve the goal. The mob up the road seem to have it. I not confident that our board and CEO etc expect success each yr or is it a case of "hoping" for success.

    Game Day 2018 Grand Final - Eagles v Pies

    well it was the lesser lights in Vardy who wouldn't have played if NickNat was fit and Sheed if Gaf was not rubbed out. Both these fellas played well above themselves- ie Opportunity is marvellous thing.

    Game Day 2018 Grand Final - Eagles v Pies

    Abbasolutely. I dislike the Egirls with a passion but will concede they are a very professional outfit who expect to be in finals EVERY YEAR and from there launch for a tilt at a flag. Its to do with the culture and expectation from the board down the supporters. 32 yrs , 7GFs for 4 Flags...

    List Mgmt. Freo Coaching Structure 2019

    Being GM of footy ops I hope Belly has a huge say in makeup of assistants in 2020 as all 2019 assistants are out of contract yrs end. Maybe he can start if Roger H is off to coach Gosnells then he can orchestrate a move of prior or Rock to Development and bring in a newbie with some fresh ideas

    News Lachie Neale to Brisbane

    I think Lyon wanted to play North but just couldn’t get any continuity due to injury. He’s an inside mid and having a second pre season hopefully one without injury will allow him to take his opportunity and there are plenty opps for midfield places with Neale most likely gorn and Mundy likely...

    He needs to re invent Sony as a forward to complement Tabs. we can have the Egirls forwardline if the connection between mids and FL is disjunctional due to poor skills and decision making then we will continue to struggle this is Lyon’s huge task during pre season. We will score more if this...

Brad and Ed are on wings Blakely needs to be in midfield now that Duman has stepped up in Back 6. Blakely, Neale, Fyfe, Cera & Brayshaw in Midfield but need Banfield to...

    Surely Jye Bolton 26yrs(sandover 2016&2018) and Mitch Grigg 25yrs( Magarey Medal 2017 &2018) are worth a look at for a rookie spot for 2019. Both are ball magnet midfielders and ready to go. I rather we went with one of these fellas than chase an injury prone Conca who is no improvement on what...

    Most of the assistants that Hardwick & Buckley have are head coach aspirants and are involved in Level 4 coaching program. Have had positions at a number of clubs to broaden their experience. Our assistants are average at best.

    I look to our assistants and ask " could anyone of these be considered as head coach material?" answer is No!!!. Then Look at the sides in top 9 at end of H&A season: Egirls- Sam Mitchell, Jamie Graham Tigers- Blake Carracella, Adam Kingsley, Bren Rutten(Bombers 2019) Demons- Jade Rawlings...

    A Tale of Alcock and Clarkeson

    Agree with you on Chris Bond a very ordinary performer as a Footy Operations Manager. Lloyd hasn't had too may success stories with 1st Rd picks until 2017 but his success rate with lower picks, mature agers and rookie picks is much better. Kochie said Good Organizations win Premierships...

    Why keep poorly skilled players like Sutcliffe ,Grey & Sheridan. 3 have retired but we have as mentioned on a previous post promoted two(duman & Banfield) so having to take a min of 3 from draft means need to cut at least another 2. BTW sutclifee, Sheridan & grey are out of contract. Nyhuis has...
