2020 Trade & List Management discussion

[Jeffcrowe]

Yawn, I'm not arguing 2021. I'm arguing based on what we actually did in 2020. Now, next year we might see out of form seniors dropped more or injured seniors firced to recuperate. But we didn't do much, if any of the 2 in 2020. Until there's on the ground evidence of the cultural shift at selection, I don't know how you can argue that's it's certain to have happened.

It’s like you never watched the 2019 trade period and 2020 season and are immersed in our 2018/19 seasons still

 

[Jeffcrowe]

no, Jeff. No

You think we tried to keep Keath Greenwood Hartigan CEY etc ?

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

So Edwards wasn't rated inside the four picks we plan on using.

Would he have been inside the 5th?

Can't say for certain but it appears unlikely.

Sounds like we only plan on taking our first four picks then matching Borlase and or Newchurch

really there’s no room for Edwards so best he put his best foot forward at other clubs

 

[Thetrader15]

Why ?? Clearly we don't rate Luke highly enough to bother locking him in as he wouldn't be in the 4 picks we plan to use.

We aren't locked into picking him if we nominate. He can be rookie listed for nothing or we can pass. There is no downside at all that I can see.

No room...because we signed MacKay up for another year.

Edwadds v DMac...hmm, which is the better option for our club in the next 5 years?

DMac. Edwards hasn’t proven anything and we’re gonna draft what, 5 kids in the draft plus Hately.

Except there would have been room if we hadn’t given Mackay 1 year. I was always OK with DMac if it didn’t affect how we drafted, but regardless of how we rate Edwards, he is a better option with the discount and the PR bonuses he brings than Mackey could possibly be.

Why bother nominating him if we don't plan on picking him ??

Better off concentrating on players we actually want. It's probably more a loss for Luke as he's not guaranteed a spot on a list.

Lol yes signing DMac meant we didn't have room for Luke.

You need to get over your unhealthy obsession

LMFAO.

How'd that work for Jackson ???

If we didn’t sign up Mackay sounds like there’s about a dozen options ahead of Edwards, all of which are behind our first 4 or 5 preferences in the draft anyway so we’re arguing over scraps here.

I'd be very surprised if he's not good enough for a rookie spot at worst. That's why you list him.

 

[Thetrader15]

More the PR bonus of not signing DMac.

 

[hey shorty]

I'd be very surprised if he's not good enough for a rookie spot at worst. That's why you list him.

Then you've probably not watched him hard enough.

He's not adding anything to our list.

 

[Thetrader15]

DMac. Edwards hasn’t proven anything and we’re gonna draft what, 5 kids in the draft plus Hately.

Edwards upside for 10 years v 1 year of we know what the ceiling is with MacKay.

 

[hey shorty]

I think we would all be happy here if we didn't sign him, but you have obviously don't have the club on social media if you think that would be good PR

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

If we only intend on picking him up as a rookie then there’s no need to list him

Are we talking Edwards or MacKay?

 

[hey shorty]

10 years ???

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Edwards upside for 10 years v 1 year of we know what the ceiling is with MacKay.

Every kid who nominates in the draft has 10 years upside and most won’t be half as good as Mackay’s ceiling.

 

[Thetrader15]

10 years ???

Only 1 will still be playing in 10 years...

[hey shorty]

Are we talking Edwards or MacKay?

Both probably, but I'm not bothered by todays decision.

The only people who are, are just people who feel the need to complain.

But you won't know about this one unless you try!
