List Mgmt. 2017 Trade & FA Targets Part 1

[Glen Buterol]

I have been wondering about Fyfe for a while. Been ok this season but not great. The injuries seem to have taken an edge off him. I have him in both my SC and AF teams so watch fairly closely. Hope we don't go overboard thinking he is the player of two years ago.

He may get better as the season goes on, but he might not.....

On form this year he's not a 1.5 mill signing

 

[Glen Buterol]

St Kilda are apparently offering Kelly 6 million over 5 years which is a very big contract. Not as long as North's but if he plays as well as everyone expects he'd get another massive contract by the time that one ends.

Is this legit ?

 

[Sab22]

Is this legit ?

If I was Kelly. I would take it.

End of the contract, he be 26 or 27. He be in a fyfe/martin situation.

Hometown connection.
Best mate plays there as well.
Similar age group team.
Bright future.

There's more upside to this than downside.

Where's waldy ?

 

[FlyingSledghamer]

I wonder what kind of contract Billings is looking at if he continues on this trajectory all year? What do you guys think he'll be offered?
Or does anyone know if weve put a big contract in front of him yet?

I would say 500 to 600k a year

Agree. Seems a lot less explosive than his Brownlow year, which is what made him so unstoppable.

 

[Glen Buterol]

I would say 500 to 600k a year

Agree. I doubt any other clubs would offer anymore than that either. We shouldn't have too much trouble re-signing him for about 500 odd per year.

Will be more if he keeps kicking 5 and knocking up 30 touches each week. Double edged sword

 

[Rors]

Agree. I doubt any other clubs would offer anymore than that either. We shouldn't have too much trouble re-signing him for about 500 odd per year.

Got to remember that we've already been paying him heaps more than his worth for last year & this year just to meet the 95% cap & 100% cap of last year & this current year. No doubt 3x $500k gets it done

4x500 if he continues form

Kelly looks like he would best 'fit' our club & our needs than Fyfe or Dusty IMO

Younger, outside class, run all day, left footer, & seems like a level headed kid - get it done Hughesy.

 

[Sheepey]

If Kelly was to go to North then he would be far and away their best midfielder. The only others they have are the perennially injured Higgins and the perennially inconsistent Cunnington, but neither come close to the class of Kelly. Therefore week in week out Kelly would cop a tag, and his numbers would reflect it. At the Saints though, Steven always gets the tag because of his line-breaking. Add that to the fact that Steele and Stevens would bury and campaigner who tries to rough up Kelly, I think it would be a perfect fit.

Like I say, still think Norf are in the box seat to pick him up due to sentimental value and the length of the contract, but I reckon we should be in with a strong chance.

Probably
But still could use an inside beast who consistently wins 15 CP a game like Fyfe and Martin

Josh Kelly.....take our money

Whoops, looks like I was Sandra'd in the other thread!

Great minds and all!

Rocky had 16 CP this week

 

[JG22]

Yes we've got one there. Still building to so should be pretty huge in that area in the future.

Even though I thought Cripps had the better of him when they went together yesterday.

Fyfe averages 15, dusty 14.

 

[FlyingSledghamer]

4x500 if he continues form

500 x 4 would be very good for us. Other clubs might see that as low though if his form stays good.

 

[Hayes4PM]

76% time on ground and he racks up them digits at 21 years of age off a dud pre-season/injury.

campaigner is gonna be a gun.

I dont get how a club pays a player more than whats in his contract. Are you saying they pay on top of the contract their on to pay less after. Like in marketing value or something.
The club can pay more in one year and less in the next within a contract but cant see how that effects the next contract.

Steele went toe to toe with Cripps yesterday. He had 29 disposals, 17 contested & 7 tackles along with a goal. Cripps had 30, 20 & 5. Cripps has had an extra year in the system. Steele will be that contested beast.

Pretty sure a few contracts were front loaded to help us pay the salary cap minimum, and create space for a big fish.

Steele? He had like 15 last week. Is going to be an absolute gun. Cant wait to see how good hes gona be in 2 years.
