Keeper Lg. 2015 Off Season List Management

[Unknown Caller]

What is the best way to sort this out? I drop McGovern and Jordie_tackles picks him from waivers? This would mean I will need to use another FA pick to re-select Crozier - can my FA selections be re-set to 5?

Yes, your selections will be reset.

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Yes, you should have McGovern. In past seasons, I based the RFA order after the draft on the previous season's ladder positions. Unfortunately, because of limited internet access and other issues, I never got around to it. My apologies.

Thanks unknown caller, and sorry for being a pain. Especially to tenderwarrior

 

[Jordie_tackles]

On another matter, Nathan Van Berlo is in the trade table, as he is a bit old for my title challenge, only 29 is expected to play games for Adelaide this year so is atleast a handy back up if you cop injuries down back!

you will also need to apologise to Mitch, who was very excited to be playing with his big bro.. dreams shattered all round

Just for future draft pick trading - can a team trade a 2017 and a 2018 pick in the same trade? And can it be any round pick?

You can, but there are restrictions on what 2018 picks you can trade, as mentioned above. There are no restrictions on 2017 picks though.

Cheers for that.

Who wants to give me their best mid to late 20's players for some pick upgrades

You could probably take Dick Douglas (I love writing that) or Chip off my hands.

 

[tenderwarrior]

Jordie_tackles, McGovern is now on the FA list for you to pick up. Unknown Caller, if you could reset my FA selections back to 5 that would be great.

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Cheers

Jesse White?

 

[tenderwarrior]

Yes, your selections will be reset.

Should Jordie_tackles now be 14th on RFA order and not 1st? I would hate to see the same thing happen again..

Yes, he should be.

Trade Alert: Cripps and Cole for Cutler and Paperone. Cole lasted all of 2 weeks.

I think Jordie_tackles has done extremely well there, but I understand that richcogs is desperate for backs.. I am a bit annoyed that I didn't approach Richcogs about a trade, Cripps would supplement my side very very nicely! Cutler and Paparone are promising players though in their own right..

 

[tenderwarrior]

Just a reminder that we have the new thread to track any future draft picks that are traded..

And speaking of future draft picks, I am open to trading a future pick or picks in a deal for a quality young mid, so if you are interested, let me know who you have available

Probably should not have given up Cole. But was happy to let Cripps go. I was very keen on Cutler. I actually like Paperone as well, have for a long time, gets marks and can find the ball. I am once again going for it this season and I don't like trading for old fogies like Maroons used to. This league is about list management. If I was going to let two young guys go I needed two to replace them and two with potential to be in my starting team this year. Paperone already is ahead of Webster and Culter could replace Fisher potentially.

Trade Alert: Cripps and Cole for Cutler and Paperone. Cole lasted all of 2 weeks.

I have had numerous enquiries over most of my backs over the last 12 months, and until now I haven't given any up. richcogs offered up Cripps from the get go and he is a good player now but can improve dramatically still. In saying this backs that are both young like cutler and Paparone don't grow on trees, and if I was closer to my window then maybe I couldn't afford to offload them. Anyway I think cutler and Paparone both have the ability to help richcogs now and that's why I wanted a player like cole back who in 2 years or so may offset the loss of two backs who are hard to come by.

Trade was executed Sunday and it is continuing to pend indefinitely. How come there is no date on when the trade will pass? Unknown Caller tenderwarrior

that happened to me when i originally tried to relist Crozier for McGovern. You might need Unknown Caller or Rockford to manually make the list changes. I can't do it as i dont have administrator access.

Should still be a three day waiting period. However, I have approved it early this time.

 

[Jordie_tackles]

Farren Ray is on the table, cheaply.

Going on a mini rant here -

The Jaeger O'Meara situation has got me pissed right off at the moment. For those not aware he has hurt his knee again and will miss the start of the season.

I dont wish injury on anyone, let alone a kid that was being compared to Selwood and Judd in his first year, but my issue is what this does for his value to teams that might look to trade him in.

For the better part of 2015 there was talk that JOM would look to move to Melbourne (the city) at the end of his contract because he believes thw marketing deals he can get in Melbourne would be much bigger/better than those available in QLD where NRL is king and Ablett is the only AFL star of any note.

Now that is fine. Every player should be free to make that sort of move and secure themselves financially.

However, given his injury run he is now what I would term a "high risk/high reward" prospect in terms of trade. He is going to cost 2 first rounders I would think, in a similar deal to the Treloar/Collingwood move.

This is a risk that lower clubs (Carlton, Stk, Essendon and Melbourne) cant afford to take. If his knee doesnt hold then they blow a huge chunk of their rebuild.

On the flip side a team like Hawthorn could come in with a package, get his nomination, and walk off with one of the best young players in the comp on the back of 4 or 5 flags in this window.

If he flops well who cares? They have their flags so the risk is affordable. But for the rebuilding clubs it's too big a risk to take given the investment.

Then we have teams like North and Richmond. A fit JOM could take them to a flag but do they really want to gamble these long, planned, sustained builds on that kind of investment?

Someome is going to take the chance if he wants to leave and I dont begrudge anybody for it, I just hate that the system is going to force someone into taking such a massive risk and that whoever does will be ridiculed for it if the injury prone player with the bad knee doesnt work out...

I thought this worth bumping
