List Mgmt. 2019 Draft and Trade Hypotheticals Thread - Part II

[SSwans2011]

Daniher in, Papley out, Blakey to the midfield so we have a midfielder as tall as Cripps?

That's what I'm hoping for. I'm staggered that some people on the anti-Daniher train want us to draft Serong and keep Blakey in the forward line. That would actually be no help at all to our midfield troubles.

Yes there are other ways, because you need superstars to win a premiership. My point is I think we already have them, they're just not there yet. Which is why patience is needed IMO.

Why wait? Try to win the Premiership every season.

Height does not matter. You only need look at Richmond's midfield to see that.

Sure, but it tends to be pretty handy (see Fyfe, Cripps, Bont, Dunkley). Cotchin, Edwards and Dusty are probably also much stronger than most of our options.

Papley to Carlton for
9
9 + 2020 1st in exchange for Joe and 33

If this happens you are my new favourite poster.

 

[The King!]

Go back on most final performances

power forwards normally separate the end results

he wants to come to us

Moore ,berg and Langdon didn’t

Lynch riewoldt
Darling kennedy
Boyd jeffrey

If we have superstars then we can ignore more kids and add to what we have?

No one is as tall as Cripps

 

[The King!]

It’s odd all year people say we have all this talent developing then the same people seemed panic we might back that talent in and add Daniher to it

 

[swanssince2002]

When Buddy came here at least we got a proven superstar, HoF talent who has a proven record of success. I was jumping for joy when he got him despite the cost. Lukewarm on Daniher however, as injuries might kill his career. Not excited to overpay him to be on the injury list.

Outside of Prestia who’s in the mid 170’s players like Cotchin and Martin are both over six foot.

 

[mikey_san]

If our list management team, CEO, and I'm presuming a host of other board members are played for chumps by Daniher and his manager....

It's hard to describe what is playing out before our eyes any other way. They're getting played like Galaga in a 1984 milk bar.

Unless of course you really think Joe is really just a bit sad because people might know who he is in Melbourne - and it's naught to do with 3 to 5 million in guaranteed money for a guy with a chronic injury preventing him playing the last two years.

Why would I look at them when I could look at the midfield that won the premiership this year?

Martin (187cm), Cotchin (185), Pickett (184), Edwards (182), Lambert (178) and Prestia (175)

Wouldn't say any of them are big-bodied, though Martin is a bull. They're just clever and effective ball-winners who rely on things like pace and footy smarts over brute strength.

Lynch riewoldt

Pies 18gf

no one

Because he will end up costing us some of that talent.

History repeating itself.

Again, the club is obviously backing them to get his body right. If he and his management have somehow pulled the wool over the club's eyes, they should also be sacked.

Until we see some proof that that is what is happening, this is pretty much a conspiracy theory.

 

[The King!]

We might be able to write a board thesis on draft pick value and danihers groin before this trade period is over

what a slow as shit week

why isn’t it a few days

one week is even overkill

just get it done already

 

[mikey_san]

Florent ran over mikey's cat.

Right after he stole your milk, told you he's evasive

Now if we want a straight swap any one player ...

 

[The King!]

History repeating itself.

He will cost us players we don’t have

he might cost us Papley I guess

Time will tell

I’d just like it done so we can have a discussion on it with facts

 

[The King!]

Now if we want a straight swap any one player ...

Next you will suggest sir Dane and caeser will come find you

Our youngsters tell you they're leaving if Joe joins the club?

Much stronger than most of our potential future midfielders (Florent, Gulden, Campbell, Hewett, Serong). Rowbototm is the only one that might be a shot of going with someone like Dusty.

 

[Kapanis]

Another Hotcopperite... Now I'm trying to figure out which one you were...

I was one too. If only VTI was around today, put a deposit on my first house because of that little gem.

 

[Tedeski]

The more I think about i

Saints are saying that 18 is for something else than Hill.

Swans should be ringing the Saints now and confirming their interest in 18 for Jones.


Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com

Jones is worth between 25 & 32. Add the VFL go home factor & he drops 5 to 10 places so I wouldn't be surprised if we get a pick from 35 to 40 for Jones.
My strong hunch is that we take next year's 2nd from them because they think they'll finish top 4 so the pick will be again in the above range with a year's worth of mystery for us supporters.

I remember when the Buddy and Tippett deals happened I was assured by people (not on here) that the contracts were back-ended, and the salary cap would go up, and blah blah blah, don't worry the club knows what it's doing, the list will be fine.

Ended up costing us a decent ruck and an elite mid.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

Obviously the answer to our midfield problems is working towards a midfield which is a combined 60cms shorter than the competition's best midfields, Mick!

When they say ‘bull’, I didn’t realize it was ‘pit bull’.

 

[caesar88]

Much stronger than most of our potential future midfielders (Florent, Gulden, Campbell, Hewett, Serong). Rowbototm is the only one that might be a shot of going with someone like Dusty.

The logical side of my brain's response: which is why I want us to draft a Kemp or a Serong, who are both hard-at-it mids (despite Serong's height.)

The emotional side of my brain wants to respond with sarcasm about how just 24 hours earlier you told me our future midfield stocks were awesome and we shouldn't worry about the midfield.

 

[Mick Oxlong]

I’m still waiting on the likes of Skilton, Kelly, Lockett and Franklin to deliver. How much more patience do I need?

 

[tombomb]

That's not true, Only people who keep repeating themselves post after post. Just wait till trade period is over until you throw the rest of your toys out of the cot. While you are at it Answer the question, will you be voicing the same opinion in 2022 if you get your wishes for more youth and the list treads water and the club is no closer to a premiership ? Troll ? Give us a spell.

yes, you are a troll.

Most people here are talking about the footy and the trade period.

Your contribution is to make smart ass personal comments at people who you don't agree with. You are a troll.
