List Mgmt. 2017 Trade & Free Agency Discussion Thread

[Thewlis Dish]

We need a separate thread for people to advertise who they are on twitter.

Was it that bad? He is probably right in that next year should be a tough year unless our 20-23 year olds like Garner, Wood, Turner, Simpkin, Dumont, Clarke, EVW, Ahern, Neilson, Durdin etc all take a leap forward...Can that happen? Absolutely, but most outsiders wouldn't expect it. Lets face it as well...we want a season of blooding young kids with the hope they jump up but if they don't we can look forward to what could be an absolute star coming in next year in Rankine/Lukosious etc.

He hasn't got a great understanding of our list but he is probably correct in expecting we are expected to go a bit lower than last season. That might not be a terrible thing in the long term.

We know where we are at, he's just contradicting himself and pulling s**t out of his ass.

Directed at me?, I am just explaining why I think TW was wrong. and its the podcasts twitter anyway.

A tall forward?

Yes watching us last year I kept thinking where is our tall forward, we just don't have one, when oh when will we have a tall player that kicks goals?

I have cold feet at the moment. In a physical sense.

The list manager............from the man that brought you Jarrad Oakley-Nicholls with pick 8.

Save your outrage for someone worthier folks.

His track record is even worse than just that. For example, in 2004 he had five picks in the top 20 (including no 1 as a priority pick, something we never got). They were:

1. Brett Deledio
4. Richard Tambling (leaving Buddy there for Hawthorn at 5 )
12. Danny Meyer
16. Adam Pattison
20. Dean Polo

This is indicative of a man who, frankly, doesn't actually know how to assess footballers.

He's a certified snake oil salesman.

He employs maximum emphasis with minimal content.

People that don't see him coming, deserve what they get.

It was an injury list of 14 by memory. Either way its still a lot

Was definitely 18-19 at times, counted it many times myself.

Good god.

Out of interest, why would North delist Gibson? He’s been pretty consistent.

I remember when Pagan unexpectedly delisted Laidley. We found that he had a harder, faster flanker waiting in the wings, someone by the name of Pickett.

Would be brilliant if one of our newer players can show as much ability. The hardness would be a bonus.

 

[Flawed Genius]

How you can tell we aren't involved in trade week: the list management team had enough time to record a podcast.

Have had conversations with Darcy and his management. No guarantees. - McMahon

Dec Mountford to play the wings.

Yep pretty much sounds that Kelly and Dusty were plan A and like Brad, we didn't have a plan B as such...

Hi ho hi ho it's off to the draft we go....

I can't see a thing in any of those tweets and twitter is basically spyware that accesses all of your web traffic.

Don't bother getting me there folks, it is a very invasive site. I have canned it.

I'd prefer it if people just typed a short simple sentence, or an accompanying sentence.

Or Plan B was the draft?

"Marley Williams is very...small" what the **** are you talking about List Mangler? What a waste of time listening to that crap. I don't believe that the list is in good shape but that was in no way insightful.

HAHAHAHAHA

 

[DarkPhoenix]

The way these guys talk is as if clubs that didn't have a go at 2 of the best mids in the comp and are going straight to the draft have no plan whatsoever! EVERYBODY PANIC

 

[Jindrrk]

Wallace......on Tigers. Hold ground.

Cool story bro. Story being the operative word.

Well this thread was fun, not even close to a trade and free agents are dead to me. Version 2.0 should provide a better result
