List Mgmt. 2025 Trade/FA Thread

[Chunky Steak]

Trac too nice for cooking shows - I know a couple who were on one recently - those shows are a pit of sh#te and would make the Dees culture seen like a wellness retreat in the Sunshine Coast hinterland

I know someone who was a pretty high profile contestant on MasterChef a few years ago.

This person cultivated a real "good friend" persona on the show and this was run with by the producers.

I can tell you with certainty that this person is, in fact, an arrogant, ignorant piece of shit.

All that and you end with us giving up a player and a first rounder. Jesus No thanks.

No, they give us Lever and a first rounder. We give nothing.

 

[stormskye]

No, they give us Lever and a first rounder. We give nothing.

Where does lever play when frampton and reef are fit? How many AFL quality KPD can we have spare just sitting in the VFL biding their time on good coin? 5? 10? We have an injury issue not a KPD issue

 

[BillyElliott]

No, they give us Lever and a first rounder. We give nothing.

Why would they do that?

I still want Harley Reid. His inside/outside game is to die for. I don't think he's anywhere near his ceiling

Me too. He's still tackleable because he's only 19. In a couple of years he won't be. He's just going to draw tacklers and release his teammates for sport. And take speckies. He'll be a more polished Dangerfield.

Just needs to calm down and stop trying to push and shove with everyone, save a bit of energy and he'd be there now.
Really impressive player

I'd have him in our side in a heartbeat. Wouldn't have to think twice about it.

I’m onboard the Harley Train.

Sorry to break it to you Kappa , but we’re actually transferring you to the Suns Board.

Seeing him up close live (about 8 rows back) and he is a ****ing unit, without even considering his age. Will be a bull for years if his body holds up

Nah. It's his second year - he's a dynamic developing inside bull developing dynamic inside bull stuff. That's all part of it. Just needs to be a bit more disciplined in terms of silly frees and 50s.

Watching the game live - I've got my concerns over Dean, granted I'm not prepared to fully commit to calling for his culling off one game. However I do think we need to look at another genuine KPD, there's still a question mark on if Reef will make it in that position and while Frampton has been fantastic this year at FB - as guys get older you don't want to see them mucking around with calf injuries.

My choice would be James Blanck from Hawthorn - they're swarmed with KPD's and he was playing some good footy pre his injuries and now being stuck out of the team. Genuine FB defender type that I think will compliment Moore as a pure shutdown defender behind him. He's out of contract in 2026, and would only demand a very late pick in a trade given he's not played this year and their wealth of defenders.

Might just need to apologies for Nick for that unfortunate injury in 2023 that probably cost him the Brownlow though!

If frampton is fit where does he play? Or do you mean replace frampton who’s been excellent? And then frampton leaves and w have no depth again. The fact you view him as gettable is exactly the issue with KPD depth, if they are any good they get poached and then you don’t have any. You either need a developing kid (usually not ready) or someone cheap like Dean who’s break glass but unlikely to get poached. It’s the same as rucks, no decent ruck wants to stay stuck in the 2’s and most move

 

[zhoung]

The Aints have had to go all in to land a big fish. They’ve missed that many times they can’t afford to be turned down again for the look that no one will go there. They’ve ****ed this up badly.
But in turn it helps **** Carlolton up along the way so it’s a pleasurable train wreck to be watching.

Let’s call it Saintsflation.
Would be better if they actually landed one of these players.
As it is, every time they miss out on a player they keep rolling that same cap space over onto another trade target without spending a penny. Is it a strategy?

It's the same for every position really. Good depth players leave to become senior players elsewhere.

[gouki88]

Same as Rowell - both can waltz on down as monster free agents in 2027!

 

[satty]

Lever has the defensive Iq to match howe, probably not as athletic.

Thats what happens when they make a show like gettable a weekly thing but have no actual substantial rumours to use for majority of the season

You have to remember they get all their information from the player managers and list bosses from clubs, the information they receive is what they want out there. Sometimes it is to throw everyone off the scent of what is really happening.
