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

The melts on SEN are ridiculous. Melbourne literally did the exact same thing with Derksen a week ago and no one is talking about it. Make it make sense.

 

[saint66au]

I am a bit curious as to why we are traing into what is goiung to be the most compromised draft in 15 years

 

[TheJackal]

Glad we got Moose to his destination for free without him having to bother going through the DFA process.

Are SOS and Gubby going to Fiji for a week? Why the rush boys?

 

[Sully111]

Really happy to get Ryan. Smart, tough player. He would have had a tough few years. Hope he tears shit up next year for us.

On Aleer... nowhere does it state we have to blindly accept the asking price of a club because one of their players nominates us. That's it... end of story.. Anyone spewing a different narrative needs to STFU.

 

[sauce_head]

Yet another deal done by us, with Melbourne. But it’s us that are the bad guys for Aleek.

 

[SainterinSydney]

We're loading up on junk 2027 picks for some reason?

Hey Geelong, we have some extras to go with Marshall for SDK

 

[marcus1232]

Today has been amazing

 

[Captain Paddy]

Moose and Aleer both out of contract

Both got better offers from other clubs than their original clubs

One club allowed their player to leave for a token pick

The other tried to extract gold from a stone

 

[Armoooo]

Shame to see Moose go, hoped he'd be a player for us, but just no room for him.

Good luck to him.

 

[St Neil]

Damo crying on radio saying we have shattered Aleers dreams and ruined his chances at the club he loves.

Bruh if the giants love him so much they can just keep him

Barrett and Jenkins are both tossers.

How about they ascertain the facts before they slag the club publicly.

 

[Palantine]

Can't wait to see who we draft with that pick in 2027

Could it be worthwhile creating a poll?

 

[ARCHIE66]

You’d think we’re smashing out all these deals early for a big play at someone else??

 

[nikkig98]

There isnt a law in the Bigfooty Terms and Rules or the Geneva Convention that wouldnt be broken if I were to describe what I'd like to do Josh Jenkins if I ever met him

 

[SaintersUnite]

No...we've commited to those 2 so that has to be honored

Welp

 

[DT_35]

can’t see SDK happening.

Marshall straight swap isn’t enough and we have absolutely f*** all after that lol.

What I’d like to see:
Marshall for SDK
or
Marshall (Geelongs 1st) & F1 for Humphrie

 

[_Maximus_12]

Anyone else thinking about calling up Damo Barrett and asking him what he offers to society, or just me?

 

[projectv]

Look let's wait for the International Criminal Court to pass judgement on us before jumping to conclusions.

 

[AFaiL]

lol
they will move in in 24 hours as usual. THey quickly forgot McRae wanted to change the BnF voting after Naicos lost.

 

[Saint Shags]

You’d think we’re smashing out all these deals early for a big play at someone else??

Struggling to see how when we really dont have the picks?

 

[Armoooo]

Moose and Aleer both out of contract

The other tried to extract gold from a stone

One was selected for a final, the other is 4th in line for his position.

Aleers highs have been far greater than Heaths to this point.

 

[Train12]

Anyone else thinking about calling up Damo Barrett and asking him what he offers to society, or just me?

What does he actually do now ?

Writes articles ? Covers games ? It feels as though he is out of the loop in today’s media and just rides off offering shit opinions..

 

[SainterinSydney]

Wasn't the media banging on for months that it was a mistake going for Aleer on big coin and we didn't need him now JSOS.

 

[AFaiL]

"Imagine life in the AFL now without St Kilda"

Maher

First thing of sense he's ever said.

 

[bakes10]

I’ve got a feeling we are just gonna go bag bang with GC out of nowhere and bring in Humphrey B Bear.

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

We really do need to start a thread laughing at opposition supporters saying the most ******ed things.
