List Mgmt. 2022 Trade Thread - Part II

[hayes]

It's very silly that trade radio starts a full week before trade week itself. I don't see why trade week can't start on the Monday after the GF.

$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Put the word “trade” in anything and your ratings skyrocket.

 

[phantom13]

trade "week" also now goes for a week and a half doesnt it?

Watching that amazon doco the whole thing looks like player managers sit on their ass making a few phone calls for 8 days then panic and work their asses off for a day.

My tip is if you made trade week 1 day the exact same number of deals would get done.

 

[Veer Right]

I'd be shocked if we didn't look at him. It's a glaring area of weakness.

Melbourne are struggling up forward themselves with their key forwards. Averages 9 disposals and 1.1 goals a game over his career. What a pickup Weiderman would be!

I will be fair and add his 0.4 goal assists per game!

open the other eye

Catching up on the thread old chap and felt the need to quote this one from yesterday morning? Rather odd behaviour.

Glad you've found your spirit animal in Matthew Lloyd.

Disagree. It’s nice to have them recap the teams and where they are all at. And go over potential trades.

Sit back, I’m about to nuff it up:

In:

• Jordan DeGoey
• Jack Bowes
• Sam Weedman
• Pick 7
• Lenny Hayes
• new forward’s coach

Out:

• Ben Long
• Brendan Lade
• third rounder for the weed man

Hit the draft with 7,9 and pick the best two players (mids) to go with Windy/Owens/NWM. Bolster forward line and relief ruck with the weed man. Spice up the mids with DeGoey. Replace Long with Bowes.

Result: 2023 flag and sustained success.




One key thing all you nuffies are missing is that Bowes first name is Jack. It’s fait accompli.

Genuinely this all checks out.

Danny Sexton gone.

Always thought he got a bit too much flack (having no idea what exactly he does, it seems impossible for me to know if he is any good).

His decision not ours.

 

[g_TRAIN]

Sounds like I'm the only one who doesn't rate Weiderman.

Wouldn't touch him with a 10ft pole. He's barely average with his output in one of the best teams in the AFL

 

[bergholt]

Should we have a go at Narkle? Delisted by the Cats.

“Danny we’ve completed our review, and we can’t thank you enough for your efforts over the journey but unfortunately we’re goin-“

“I RESIGN!”

I am going with the review decided for him and he got in first. The club is slicing through the rusted on underperformers like Jason Vorhees on a rampage.

Seems like the Geoff Walsh appointment is making waves already and he hasn't even started in his job yet.

 

[bergholt]

“I RESIGN!”

"Danny we're halfway through the review and we can't find any trace of you doing anything. What would you say you do here?"

"I resign!"

So what you are saying is that we have to pay the $850K salary dump to get pick 7... plus steaknifes Bowes and then pay his wage going forward.

Mmmm.. no wonder the club has pulled out.

One of the issues with sports journalism and $’s, sometimes they mix as well as oil and water. But I think you’re on the money here.
My reading is: Bowes is owed $850k and he is on a $500k pa contract with two years remaining.
Total cost to the new club is $1.85mill by taking on the existing contract over a two year period.
As the total salary cap over those two years is $26mill approximately, the Bowes contract by itself is in excess of 7% of the cap for those two years.
That is a big investment in one player given the pressure to fairly compensate others. Especially when the average is less than 2.5%, and this is compounded by the quality of the player concerned.
The impact of the $850k owed would be defrayed if the contract is extended, say by another year at $500k. But it’s still significant.
The question becomes: can the Club fit the impact of the new contract into the planned salary cap for the next two years? Maybe, maybe not.
You’d hate to lose a Windhager because of it.
But given these numbers, I can see why the Club might not be interested.
Even with #7 as incentive.

Very different to the Simon Lethlean exit interview.

Yeah that makes sense, and if accurate also would explain why such a good pick is attached to him.

I dont rate him but if he can play the hybrid forward/ruck then in reality he was competing with Ben Brown, Max Gawn and Luke Jackson (and possibly Brodie Grundy moving forward).

Factor in new structure and fresh start... If he comes free and on a cheapish salary and contract it could be worth a look but theres some heavy IFs in that.

Should we have a go at Narkle? Delisted by the Cats.

I would but apparently knocks on his defensive efforts.

 

[Squirtles]

Listening to Trade Radio and that drink wise ad.. Dude needs new mates can’t pause the game for 2 secs so he can get a drink..

But, but, who is going to get the team on the bus and collect footballs from over the fence at training?

My wife for drunk at the footy in Adelaide and called him Nick (Roo) so maybe that was his job

 

[sunny3193]

And if accepted, not much is going back to GC, if anything at all.

 

[TheOsprey]

Is he a decent player ?
About the worse rank player in the game for forward pressure

How does his forward pressure compare to Ryder, Marshall or Tommy Campbell's? Is it much worse?

Because to date we have had a non forward in the forward line a lot of the time.

 

[MordySaint]

Didn't he just get life membership at the club?

I was a bit miffed by that, thought Tony Brown was a great recipient.

Next second he's gone?

 

[Max the great]

Wonder if he wants to play for another club as well. Or has the search for a new rental consumed all his focus and downtime? Time will tell.
