List Mgmt. 2026 Trade/FA/Draft thread

[Bluelegs]

He is OOC end of the year, he will be done by then. In what world can the club force people to retire?

 

[Lord Nev]

Might be a controversial opinion but I think we need to force McAdam into retirement. I don't see him getting on the park anytime soon or ever. His body isn't allowing him.

Has been talk he'd retire before the MSD.

 

[Crusty Demon]

Has been talk he'd retire before the MSD.

So if he does retire, Campbell retires and with the Culley injury, would that mean we could potentially have 3 list spots open for MSD?

That or they may open up two spots but keep one remaining for the national draft.

Yep, could have as many as 3 picks. Gut feel though is with the Culley injury maybe Campbell and/or McAdam reconsider and have a last crack. MSD players usually sign for 18 months, but they can sign for just the rest of the season potentially.

This is King saying that we're out of the race in case it's not clear for anyone - although I don't think anyone ever expected us to be in it

 

[markm106]

Seems like Butters probably only going to a Dogs, Cats or Hawks type team. We’ve shown a bit this year but I agree with King that his decision probably made already. No doubt we’ll keep the door open.

 

[Lord Nev]

"Bamert – a tough left-footer who captained the Sandringham Dragons last year – is one of a number of players being linked with Melbourne."

 

[danster168]

so i said pre-season that we shouldnt overpay for Humphrey as we get 15 touches and a goal from Kade Chandler

Best just to wait until he's out of contract.

Any players worth looking at from the Blues? Surely everyone is on the table no one wants to be at that shithole next year.

Weitering is the standout and has a few good years left. Cripps is old. McKay is flakey.

Jagga Smith is probably the only one that is untouchable.

Harry Dean and maybe Jacob Weitering

 

[Toump Ass]

Oh yeah, Harry Dean would be a FANTASTIC get out of Carlton carcass!!! Let's get him!

 

[Lord Nev]

Weitering doesn't seem the right fit for us. Bit slow in terms of both leg speed and playing on. Plus, given his contract he would cost more than we should probably invest in a KPD for where we're at.

Matt Carroll is the only player on their list I'd have any interest in (outside of Jagga and Dean who are no chance to move), and strikes me as a sKing type.

on Weitering. He’s cost the world and he’s actually a very selfish player. Does his own job really well but doesn’t help out, seems not to organise the defence that well and offers little in terms of rebounding.

Yep. He's like 60% of peak May, do not want.

 

[TheBoss]

Watching Carlton makes me glad that we missed out on Cerra in 2021.

 

[MarcMaverick]

How about bringing in, Darcy Wilson from St Kilda?

 

[danster168]

I'd rather him than Humphrey. He's a gun. Elite speed.

 

[Lord Nev]

How about bringing in, Darcy Wilson from St Kilda?

Absolutely! Really good call. He would fit the 'burst mid' type I'm keen on this year IMO.
