List Mgmt. 2022 List Management: Draft, Trade and FA

[Descent]

agree…but the stench emanating from our forward line is a concern.

Schoota is inconsistent. Switta injured. Walters almost finished, Sturt almost on the delist line, Lobb almost gone, Taberner may as well be called tampon, cos he’s in for one out for three.

We DESPERATELY need amiss and Treacy to come on, and we need to prioritise forwards with everything else we have

Jackson means Logue gets to train and play as a full time forward and Darcy gets to spend more time up forward. Even if Jackson plays 0 minutes up forward, his inclusion would improve our forward line.

 

[freo_leo29]

Not many 20 year old rucks ‘dominate’.

If Jackson comes to Freo it will be massive. 2 firsts is more than fine. He was pick 2. He’s 20 years old. Our picks will likely not be top 10. We have an abundance of youth.

This is an absolute no brainer opportunity and supporters are worried over what exactly?

Well he is coming over to play behind Darcy IMO

I want him, I like the difference that he brings compared to Darcy but his best game has been when Gawn wasn't there

 

[guidodp15]

Rosich's daughters used to talk about late night phone calls their dad took about Harley Bennell and other players in financial troubles while at school.

If thats true its stupid that shed openly talk about that stuff at school.

If the rumor is true and we are getting a player back in addition for Lobb, could it be Riley Garcia?

It's JJ out of contract WA boy who hasnt been a lock in the team in recent times. Will be the Steak Knives in the Lobb trade.

If JJ is out of contract, then he is an unrestricted free agent.

If the two head monster Lean Dackson plus Logue can kick 50-60 goals between them will cover for Lobb.

wanting out? Is he just chasing an increase in $$ or genuinely wants to go?

The goss is that he was low balled by the club.

Not sure that is true as his manager is Colin the Knob Young.

Yes, but once again he’s 20. We’re not paying for what he’s currently achieved. His potential is AA. His base is still high.

Those saying things like ‘yeah but what has he done’. It’s as stupid as saying Erasmus, Johnson or Amiss are worth 4th rounders because they haven’t done anything.

Talls take longer. He’s tracking very well. Plus don’t underestimate then mental struggle of getting up every week for a side you are leaving.

Worth every bit of 2 first rounders. 100% a steal if both first rounder cal outside top 10 picks.

Tall’s that move like ruck rovers are gold.

 

[Polo342]

If JJ comes back here I really will spew!!! Where exactly does he even fit into our line up? Peel alongside Colyer?

I'm not arguing he isn't worth 2 firsts, I am excited to bring him in

I'm just arguing that Darcy is the better player and honestly I'll be surprised if Jackson becomes as good as Darcy

no chance, JJ to Freo is a reddit meme

 

[Carnthedockers]

Unless we get a really good offer for lobb, we will be holding him to his contract again. We are playing hardball.

It just makes no sense to let him go for anything less than a very good offer. Contracted, coming off his best season with disproportionately high value for us given our key forward stocks. We're competing at the pointy end and Amiss is realistically a couple of preseasons away from becoming a monster; even if we lose him for FA compensation after next season, one more year of this level of output is worth it.

Cannot like this enough!!!

The flexibility it will provide us is huge.

Darcy is a gun so no worries if he doesn’t become as good or better, but Jackson also has that superstar potential for a tall… as does Darcy.

50% ruck each game. Splitting time up forward. Provide contests down the line. Huge possibilities and flexibilities to our structure.

Both could work on their forward craft and give us so much.

I’m personally excited to see Jackson on Optus.

 

[Cobbler]

Any chance to extend his contract or that’s not in discussions?

I'm thrilled to be reading this . Bring in Jackson, keep Lobb, let Amiss and Treacy develop with less pressure to perform quickly, yes please

 

[MrDanggazz]

Gunston playing well, I'm with the few on here saying to get him across, he has plenty of good football left in him.

 

[freo_leo29]

Gunston aint going anywhere, had the option to go to Brissy a couple years ago for good money and a shot at another prem but didn't

Also could have gone to the pies for good money and didn't


Also went home from the Crows because he wants to be in Melbourne

 

[Superkoops]

I think everyone will like this. Not interested in some steak knives player to water down the trade. We need picks because we have other wish to fry. We don’t need a flaky has been HBF’er. Wilson is playing better JJ this year and he is odds on to be delisted.

We should and will ask for a first and then likely settle for trade value that sits around late first/ early second.

If it is Bulldogs then 9, 27 > 14/15, Lobb. That rates the trade around value of pick 18.

Then 9 will be crucial component of Jackson Trade.

 

[theGav56]

Someone on reddit says from a reliable source “ a bulldogs player coming back to us in the Lobb trade”

Surely not JJ!!

Would be a terrible move (if JJ). Won't happen.

 

[Carnthedockers]

Also been told Treacy has mild glandular fever.

Probably season for him then. Damn.

Ive said it many times on here we will get the Bulldogs first pick at a minimum.

People are insistent we will only get a 2nd rounder for him
