List Mgmt. 2015 Trade, Draft, Rookie Draft and FA Megathread

[saintbill]

2015 = lowest amount of games he's played since becoming best 22. Due to injury.

Okay, so a quick scroll of the Bombers website revealed:

2015 AFL games:
Carlisle - 17 games....
McKernan, drumroll please.........

9 GAMES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[saintbill]

mckernan played 9 and still got in the top ten... is he worth pick 5?

Ha, ha, beat me to it.

 

[Sir Skid]

mckernan played 9 and still got in the top ten... is he worth pick 5?

No. He'd be worth 2 sub 10 picks of which we only have one so would unfortunately mean we missed out.

 

[DapperJong]

No he didn't.

Whatever. Moot point. You're squeezing value out of a B&F count...

For the record, how McKernan made the top 10 confuses me just as mush as it might confuse you.

Who gives a s**t where he finished in a club's BnF??? You do know that every club have different criteria on how they base their voting, right? To simply use where a player finishes in a BfN is simplistic and naive. Theres no doubt Carlisle can play and become an absolute jet

 

[Mowman]

You can have Tom Lee or pick 79

Well if your club doesn't rate his on field performance why should we?

 

[Dopey BJ]

Probably a mistake in record keeping of the votes, I hear the Bombres aren't good at that sought of thing

Sshhhhhhhhhhhhh, we are trying to push his value down here. Take that somewhere else.

 

[DapperJong]

dunno m8

ask your coaching staff?

 

[Sir Skid]

You're squeezing value out of a B&F count...

And rightly so considering you lot feel entitled to inject pick 5 into your draft considerations!

 

[Persevering Saint]

Whatever. Moot point. You're squeezing value out of a B&F count...

Ah, the wondrous selective logic of Essendon: "When it suits us, it's essential information. When it suits you, it's a moot point and totally irrelevant."

Read my sig and go inject something.

 

[Persevering Saint]

ask your coaching staff?

Oh, we rate him... at the value of a fringe and maybe a third round pick.

 

[DapperJong]

And rightly so considering you lot feel entitled to inject pick 5 into your draft considerations!

I can understand not wanting to give up pick 5. Doesn't justify it though. Seriously, is it the only thing you're going on? A lot of people have seen how good Carlisle can be and at the end of the day it's a gamble. Just like Bennell. If you're coaching staff want him badly, they might consider pick 5.

 

[Periphery]

Note to self: Do not engage Dons fans in the Carlisle trade thread in the D&T board. They are literally brain dead idiots unable of coherent thought.

 

[DapperJong]

I'm actually trying to be civil. My ice addiction is none of your business.

 

[Feerits Elf]

If you're coaching staff want him

Damn autocorrect

 

[DapperJong]

Damn autocorrect

lol dammit

anyway fellas, gr8 chat

if carlisle ends up with you, hope he rediscovers his form

It's that, OOC, asked to be traded, possible suspension to come and still getting over Lovett

 

[Joffaboy]

Good on you. Hope you pick a good one for# 25 and hope Saunders plays well for you

 

[Persevering Saint]

Well played.

Seriously, is it [the Bombers B&F] the only thing you're going on?

Uh, no. It really, really isn't:

• WADA still hanging.
• Wants to leave.
• Hates your club.
• Out of contract.
• AND unimpressive in the most recent available measure of his ability, your B&F.

It's not about what he's worth, what's fair, anyway. It's about what we have to pay to get him: given he's out of contract, and we have the cap room to get him through to pick 5 in the PSD, we don't need to pay that much. And don't give me the "But, but Jake said he won't go to the PSD! Nobody goes to the PSD!" Well, Jake is so darn ticked at your mob, I think if you guys don't play nicely in the negotiations, he'll say lots of nasty words about Essendon (like he has before) and go to the PSD.

 

[Wright 1]

Except he is OOC, under a WADA cloud, his form is inconsistent and has a poor attitude. He isn't worth pick 5. Our 2nd rounder,(possibly very end of rnd1) + Ross/Hickey

ROFL.
He hasn't been good enough to talk pick 5 level for 2 YEARS bud.

Hickey is way to valuable. Can have Ross

 

[Melksham2Siposs]

Ross will be a better footballer than Dunstan & Sinclair. In time, he'll start controlling the tempo and flow of the game in the same manner as Sam Mitchell.

McKenzie, Ross & Billings will forge a very intelligent brains trust.

They'll let Acres loose and work around him.

It's all about the combination of mini teams within a team. That's why I lost my mind seeing Callum Ah Chee's highlights. Bruce, McCartin, Membrey, Lonie, Ah Chee up forward, with a cameo from Billings and Acres. Shiieeeet.
