List Mgmt. 2015 Draft, Trades and Retirements Thread Pt 1

[Cadsky]

I thought Jetta signed a contract last year?

I think it was the year before. Only signed a two year extension. Runs out end of this year.

 

[brad cooper]

West coast still lack pace and jetta would be the perfect fit for them. Having said that on current form I hope he stays.

That is slightly worrying as he is in great form this year.

Mills to get 14

So Bird is already out the door?

 

[bedford]

A couple have to go

This article explains our trade ban as best as any article so far. Basically points out that we can't trade for fair value this year

Pretty fair write up...but god it makes me angry

 

[TheMase]

Perhaps Hanneberys deal and the trading of one or two players would see us fall under the COLA salary cap and would allow us full value trades straight up and removal of COLA straight away? Just a thought. Maybe the club is working towards that?

We can't keep everyone and if he is playing NEAFL, apart from depth reasons you shouldn't keep someone as good as Bird. The aim for all teams is 'sell high'. Bird could easily fetch a 2nd rounder.

Nope, article in Fairfax papers today saying that even if we'd trade out tippo and Bud the restrictions would still apply for this year. the " drop the cola or cop a ban" deal was only available before last year's off season..

I think Shaw needs to go maybe to GWS with his cuz

Do we need both Dunkley and Mills?

Also whats happening with AJ? Has he had his op yet?

Oh yes indeedee, we do need both Mills and Dunkley. Never pass up the opportunity to recruit top liners on the slightly cheap!

 

[Millky95]

Good chance he will be rookied next season

 

[Mr Mediocracy]

G'day guys. Long time lurker. My thoughts on this years trades are if Swans get Mills and Dunkley we really need to somehow get in some KPD and a solid ruck.

I know some say there's guys in NEAFL but really if they're not knocking on the door now what chances are they round 1 next year. As solid as he is I can't see Teddy keeping it together for next year.

I am worried about our KPD and Ruck depth as well. Both Pyke and Richards are approaching the end of their careers and the worrying thing is we don't really have anyone to replace either of them.

I agree 100%. It's great having gun mids like Parker, Kennedy, Mitchell, Heeney etc with two more possibly coming in. But no good having great mids and forwards if you have no one defending the scoreboard.

 

[TheMase]

I think Reid can replace Richards. He did well in the absence of Grundy recently.

Not much after that so a mature back up wouldn't go astray at least before others develop.

What about trading for Jarrad Redden from Port? Or getting him as a DFA. I think his contract expires at the end of this year.

Would he be on under $300,000 a year?

 

[tizzay7]

I wouldnt know for certain but if we was i think he would be the perfect option to look at.

 

[momentbymoment]

Reid to replace Richards. Our defence is fine.

In an ideal world, Naismith and Nanka are the Pyke and Mumford combination for 2016. If those guys can step up, most of our problems go away.

 

[Foxx]

What would you give up for Daniel Robinson? I really rate the kid. Outside Sydneys best 25 from the looks of it.

Pick swap in the third round IMO

 

[Wayne Swan]

In the U18 Championship, Vic Country vs SA today, a bloke named Dunkley only had 7 disposals as a mid ....... but laid 10 tackles!
