List Mgmt. 2022 Trade Thread - Part I

[Falchoon]

Tanner Bruhn from the giants is a worthy target

avoid people who don't smile, ie no outward enjoyment of the sport they play.

Dayne Beams was one, the other Pies one is Jamie Elliott.

 

[George]

George is that any chance we can merge this and the other Ben King thread and turn it into a trade discussion thread?

I take it we're over discussing Bing now?

Happy to do it if others are in agreeance

 

[BrutThough]

He's in a funny sort of spot right now. He's very good but there is a bit of a potential Billings feel about him at the moment. He's kind of an almost awesome type.

He's one who could be a great midfield but just hasn't been given that consistent chance in the middle yet. Looks like they also prefers Butters over him in that mid who then goes forward role.

Doubt he'd ever leave SA either

It would be unlikely and I couldn't see Port letting him go either. I'm just a big fan of him.

 

[Chef Ratts]

Hopper or Green from GWS would do then.

I think Smith is an absolute flog but he's going to be something pretty special. He had to sacrifice his game when Treloar arrived but his ceiling is so high I'd take the risk. I think he looks another superstar long term.

Just had a look at the contract status of green & hopper, both out of contract at the end of '23.

Hopper then becomes a free agent.

Both threads seemed to have morphed into discussing other prospects

Banger never smiled. He never smiled his way to two Brownlow's haha.

Ok cool, I'll get around to it. I don't go in those threads so had no idea.

 

[g_TRAIN]

Honestly, the best outcome for us.
We either shoot up the ladder, and become more attractive to out of contract mids and FA's or we regress further and stock up on young mids over the next two years.

This.

Shouldn't be selling the future for the now anymore.

We need to take our picks to the draft and target FA's

 

[Minga]

He's probably too much of a forward to be the midfielder we are seeking, but I'd ask the question of Connor Rozee.

He was a Saints fan growing up no? I’m sure the club would be interested, but unless Port puts him on the outer Jack Higgins style, I can’t see him going anywhere.

 

[Joffaboy]

Really have a good full hand of dp's for this and next year. If we were targetting Ben, we would have at least 700k large in the kick, no reason not to target some players who are actual needs.

How's that bird_man

threads all season.

Ok who knows exactly the dp's we have for 2022 and 2023?

 

[BrutThough]

What a relief that we don't have to look at Ben King threads all season.

Ok who knows exactly the dp's we have for 2022 and 2023?

1st, 2nd, 3rd for 2022. All of 2023.

 

[BrutThough]

He was. Very unlikely he goes anywhere but of those out on contract from that 2018 draft, he's the one I hope we ask the question too.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Honestly, the best outcome for us.
We either shoot up the ladder, and become more attractive to out of contract mids and FA's or we regress further and stock up on young mids over the next two years.

Except until they introduce a new team in Tassie and then we again become a victim of compromised drafts sitting near the bottom of the ladder..
I'll take the first of your options please.

on the AFL site. He's out of contract at the end of this year and it seems is in no hurry to sign his life away to the giants (says he's gonna wait till mid season to even think about it).

Got me thinking about the cash and picks we've stashed away for Ben King

. I'd like to know what you all think.

Would you rather we sign Ben or Tim?

Tim!

 

[StCicatriz]

Mids mids mids

The only exception to this is free agency. Namely Moore.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

Oh well; easy come, easy go [emoji1745]

 

[Ephemeral Hope]

Can we hit part 2 by the end of the weekend?

 

[plugger66]

Everyone is crying about how bad our midfield is on the other thread.
It drives me insane that people want us to cough up big for another Tall.

Well luckily it isn’t happening. Maybe in 3 years king will suit us but he doesn’t now.

 

[moirae42]

Is this legit? How much are they paying him? Must be a bomb.

 

[St Neil]

All the best to Ben. Congratulations to Gold Coast.

Now it’s time to move on. The romance was undeniable but it’s time to forget about him. We have bigger fish to fry.

$800k pa SEN reported.
