List Mgmt. 2020 Trade Thread - Part I

[St Neil]

A little while ago someone on here ( can’t remember who) said we were talking to a GWS player with tatts...

Brian Speaking originally tweeted it. Brian has also tweeted that there is no chance that Gresham leaves Saints.

The industry rumour is that it is very frosty between Cogniglio and Taranto.

would cost every bit of currency we have and leave us with nothing at draft time for 2 years.

We won’t have much of a draft hand anyway. I’m not too sure man clubs strike gold with pick 18

As much as I’d love Tim Taranto, I can’t see us getting it done. Unless they want him out, which I doubt they would

I'm skeptical too. Would love to be proven wrong, but it does feel like it would need a lot of things to go our way.

Thanks Brian

We don’t want to do an Essendon and trade our first two rounders for one player.

Carlisle and our future first for Taranto? They need a KPD with Corr gone.

P Davis is also is also starting to break down. So carlise would be cheap get for them. Taranto is also a Lenny lover and wants to follow him to the saints.
Gws receive
Carlise, this year's first, next year second

Saints receive
Taranto, gws 4th round

Would mean no first round pick for 3 years. Which I don’t think is even allowed

 

[Longmembrey]

Fair but when the company line is that we need to add quality to our midfield, trading out one of our best midfielders to bring in a slightly better midfield isnt making the midfield much better.

That would take our midfield from a 6 to a 7. But having both Gresh and Taranto in there would take us to an 8.5 midfield.

Yes, but if its a choice between a 6 and a 7, im taking the 7...

There’s ways around it. And you’re getting perhaps the best young mid in the comp.
Or, we could try our luck and grab the next Paddy McCartin and Jack Watts

Gresham was pick 18.

Well then the Swans are just going to have to accept our 2028 & 2029 fourth rounders for Heeney then

At 22, I think he's definitely worth it. Two first rounders for a 26 year old I'd be hesitant to do, but for someone who we'll get 10 years out of, I'd do it every day. Two picks in their teens could turn out to be two misses. Could turn out to be two guns, but the odds aren't high. Taranto is as close to a 10 year sure thing to be a gun.

 

[Winmar2Lockett]

In between his glutes.

Our reported offer of $600k x 5 was reported in the media. Doesn’t mean it was accurate but assuming Jye decided to stay a reasonable assumption would be that the GWS offer was better than that.

Theres no other way to do it, it would be worth it in this case.

A little while ago someone on here ( can’t remember who) said we were talking to a GWS player with tatts...

But don't forget a little while ago someone was talking about a Sydney player with Blonde hair.

And got an update from my cousin the barber. Heeney went in for another trim and is a LOCK. Everything else is a SMOKESCREEN.

I would 100%

We aren't talking about giving up two top 10 picks.

We will end up with a pick around 15 or 16 after free agency compos and that's even before the compromised draft pushes that pick back further.

I'd back ourselves to at least finish in a similar position next year.

Taranto was a former pick 2 that has also has the runs on the board at AFL level.

I'd happily hand them over.

A midfield of Steele, Taranto, Jones and Clark is enough to take us to the next level

Taranto is not Sheil and would be worth every bit bit of two firsts.
Next Year
Steele
Jones
Hanners
Gres
Clark
Ross
Taranto

Bytel
Byrnes prospects

Hill and Billings as wingers

Marshall and Ryder rucks

Our guts doesn't look skinny anymore. Rather it has got a lockdown covid spread about it.

 

[RWB4life]

Taranto winning a bnf in a grand final year after being pick two and us having at least one of our next two first round picks be after ten makes it a no brainer almost.

2 firsts for Taranto and a later pick this year.

 

[Mikka84]

Taranto was very close to Lenny. He was his mentor and father figure up there. The departure of Lenny and our priority of Tim is not a coincidence.

I love Gresham but Taranto is better than him as pure mid. I agree that we'd be better with both. To me Gresham's ideal role is Robbie Grey or De Goey style forward mid. I'm more trying to work out how we think we'd get the deal done. We must be giving up something.

Which of our players are untouchable? Because they’ll be the first ones they ask for.

Marshall, Steele, King, Clark, Coffield and to a lesser extent Gresham
