List Mgmt. 2025 List Management Discussion - Part IV

[Hubnester]

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.

Free Agency Period: Friday, October 3rd - Friday, October 10th

"It's (out of $) the only conclusion you can come to"

PURPLE JUST SAID THERE IS TRUTH IN THE MIDDLE OF THESE SITUATIONS RE ALEER

MY WORD. COMMON SENSE

Why are you shouting??

 

[The Punter]

The Aleer bridge is burned, surely.

 

[SainterinSydney]

Bombers entered the chat?

O boy, please don't let this end up being Gresh Prince and Shiel for Marshall

 

[SainterinSydney]

The Aleer bridge is burned, surely.

You'd think so? But is all of these media statements actually Aleer, or his manager making shit up whilst he is overseas?

 

[Lennylegs]

Didn't have to be that way. Honestly can't believe how amateurish his manager has acted. You keep working the deal until it's entirely impossible. That's what he's there to do. Keep your mouth shut and get to work.

 

[The Punter]

It would be a fun phone call if the manager gets instructed by Aleer to continue to pursue a move to St Kilda regardless.

Also, FWIW all the commentary before the trade wish declaration was that Aleer is happy at GWS. So I don't think that is likely.

I don't think we're picking up the phone to GWS again on Aleer.

 

[Geezington]

We might end up with 29 from the gc

 

[akaifu]

Take with full shaker of salt

 

[stavro#4]

Bombers entered the chat?

Oh I’m not suggesting that.

Balls in the cats court.

 

[Lennylegs]

We don't have to speak to GWS

 

[The Punter]

We don't have to speak to GWS

I don't think we can walk him to the draft if he is happy with GWS.

 

[BrutThough]

There must be more to it if he's willing to walk back has outrage a bit.

 

[AFaiL]

Why are you shouting??

Because I am so stunned at the common sense

 

[Lennylegs]

I don't think we can walk him to the draft if he is happy with GWS.

That wasn't my point. Leek's manager had options and he choose to burn the house down. Dumb AF

The shit truck is in reverse?

Fair enough. I wasn't attempting to defend Aleer's management.

BTW, the same company manages Alix Tauru. Fun times ahead.

I'm not losing sleep over this. List looks solid.

Calling it a company is a stretch, its a backyard operation and there is a good chance Alix will find new management as his profile increases.

 

[jumperfan]

Do the idiots on the main board seriously think Aleer is better than Silvagni?

 

[bird_man]

Fans turning on Aleers manager is laughable

 

[DougalHoward]

Whining

Dont get sucked into the chooks, they are hungry

What? That there might be a St Kilda side to the story? Heaven forbid. Especially coming from that know nothing.

To be honest I am trying to just wait until the end of the trade period. Just let it play out. Game of poker going on. Or maybe not….

I definitely do not like people pouring s**t on our club though. Hasn’t been fun to read.

Laughable because he's pissed his pants and told the whole world that his client is on holidays in Europe literally crying? I mean, what the **** is this shit? Daffy Duck hour?
