List Mgmt. 2025 List Management Discussion - Part IV

2025 List Management Discussion - Part 4

Now that our season is over, and news is starting to break - it's time for a fresh thread.

This thread is to discuss all things list management - trades, draft, free agency, delistings and more.
As we are now officially in our off-season, we'll be wanting to keep this thread more strictly on-topic than the previous iterations.
Be respectful. You are allowed to disagree with someone - but play the ball, not the man. Repeat offenders will have their posting rights revoked.

Thanks to Lore once again for this incredibly useful spreadsheet.

2025 KEY DATES
Free Agency Period: Friday, October 3rd - Friday, October 10th
Trade Period: Monday, October 6th - Wednesday, October 15th
AFL Draft: Wednesday, November 19th - Thursday, November 20th

[Joffaboy]

Craig Cameron saying Flanders deal is getting to a comfortable position - just a couple things to iron out

Sort of linked it to the Petracca deal.

 

[beside the seaside]

what a shit show

This is why I like our strategy. We're hitting realistic targets, not just throwing out hail mary's at gun players that aren't going to be traded.

 

[bergholt]

If Humphreys is available surely we want him to come to us, not hope he goes to another team so we can get the bloke he forces out.

Different cost, Humphreys probably asking 850 or something while Cmac is probably only 500

 

[Joffaboy]

what a shit show

Old Will hey, surprised he didn't tweet that Adelaide were his favoured destination

 

[NAS THE GOAT]

Fiorini decision imminent today - may affect Steele if Bombers aren't picked

Did he mean that?….OR that they will talk to him today about where it goes?

 

[Joffaboy]

Geelong can't get Curnow and Marshall done, - Mackie
Not giving anything away re Marshall.

says it'll be "hard work" to get both Marshall & Curnow done

Respects that Marshall has 2 years left on his contract so it'll be a "complex" one

 

[Coconut_twirl]

I dare say it's been said before but why t f does the trade period need to go for ten days

I’m sure all the trade deals will get done on Day 1 this year.

 

[stavro#4]

Mackie - complex deal to do Marshall.

 

[NAS THE GOAT]

What I hear here was Ro ain’t gonna be traded for some crappy offer

 

[CHBench]

GWS wanting a F2 for Aleer. Nice try

 

[stavro#4]

Giants saying they want our F2 for Aleer.
But it’s not on the table yet for Aleer.

 

[beside the seaside]

If Hawks can't get Merrett or Humphrey, who do they get? They seem to think they need a gun mid.

 

[Joffaboy]

Aleer- not stupid asking for too much, around a second, later this week.

 

[AFaiL]

Giants saying F2 for Aleer is about right for them but its not on the table yet from us

 

[stavro#4]

Gubby Allan on next.

 

[magd2992]

Fiorini decision imminent today - may affect Steele if Bombers aren't picked

Will happily pay Steele 900k p/a to play VFL so he doesn’t have to go to the Dons. He deserves better.

 

[NAS THE GOAT]

Future 2nd for Aleer?? He is joking right

No surprise it hasn’t been put on the table by us

 

[stavro#4]

 

[Joffaboy]

Giants saying they want our F2 for Aleer.
But it’s not on the table yet for Aleer.

'Something like' a F2, sounds like swaps when we do other deals and we know what we have, the deal will get done.
F2 on its own lol. PSD if they do 'go stupid'

I did laugh when he said we won’t be stupid in our ask.

Then asks for an F2

 

[bird_man]

Giants saying they want our F2 for Aleer.

Wouldn't even be disappointed if we didn't end up landing him to be honest.

If we give any more than a third I'll be disappointed.

 

[dudeintheswamp]

Curnow to the Swans?

 

[akaifu]

I think the Aleer deal will be:

STK F2, STK F3

36, Aleer


36 goes for Ryan and another late pick for Fincher

 

[CHBench]

What are we wanting for Marshall? F1?
