List Mgmt. AFC - 2014 Drafting and Trading

[Bacon8]

If our coach is in the country and we have our full allotment of picks then yes

Is the WB coach in the country at the moment?

 

[matty p]

How about the 2002 "Super Draft"? Anyone fancy picks 2, 3 and 12?

This year's draft is far from a super draft. It's one of the weakest in my opinion.

 

[crows101]

if we got pick 2,3 and 12 we could trade our pick 3 and a fringe player for a gun defender (mckenzie,hooker,rance) and sitll have 2,10,12 potentially 22 for lyons.

pick 2. get brayshaw replace danger
pick10. get pickett, leverde some pace
pick 12 get a tall
pick 22 cockatoo

Bulldogs are stupid if they keep Griffen around. They need a Blight moment to draw a line in the sand, and a 30 year old is not worth Tom Boyd, unless his name is Gary Ablett Jnr.

When did Griffen become 30?

 

[Mr Kitch]

When did Griffen become 30?

Next Year

 

[Crowbots are dead]

Rebuild...not waste. With a new coach, it's understandable. Walsh did it with West Coast and Port, and it worked a treat.

the problem now is what happens to the half of the team that's already rebuilt I.e. Talia, walker , Sloane etc. You risk loosing them through free agency as they get impatient. We can't keep starting again! We are probably only a handful of players off seriously competing

 

[dylan123]

Next year Griffen turns 29. bigfooty seems to be the place where soon as a guy turns around 27+ they get an extra few years added to their age in any debate regarding them being traded from club A to club B.

 

[Deaneus!]

Taylor Walker is Plan C.

Cannnnnn you filllllllllllllll air timeeeeeeeeee tonight.....

 

[Scorpus]

They're hypothetically trading Walker to Footscray on Trade Radio!

That will NEVER happen.

 

[Crowfoot]

Taylor Walker is Plan C.

Actually started laughing hysterically. "He hasn't re-committed yet"

I would rather keep Dangerfield. If we have to use pick 2 to replace him that pick becomes useless. I can't see Essendon or West Coast giving up those guys and Rance isn't worth that. We can still use 10 and 22 to recruit the suggested players. Basically trading Dangerfield for 2 untried kids in a weak draft.

 

[Draft Bored]

If you can trade Danger for 2,3 and 12 you have 2/3/10/12 in the draft.

If you can then get Cameron for 2 and 3 you essentially gain Cameron and a first round pick... I'd take that (PROVIDING Danger doesn't want to commit past 2015).

The clubs response would be something along these lines I believe

 

[Macca Pakka]

You missed Cole, Hale, Rodan, Armstrong, Seaby who've played in GFs as well.

Cheers, fixed. I only skimmed through it so knew I'd miss a few. But seriously, wow, 21 of the top 40.

Yea I don't think anyone has suggested it's close to a "super draft" unfortunately matty p Not that I think Danger going to Melb is likely to happen anyway.

 

[Deaneus!]

Holy cow, Trade Radio just crossed into the most self-important circle-jerk I've ever heard about football.

And that's saying something. Football journalism in this country is delusional.

EDIT: Essentially, the Bulldogs have gone for Boyd, because Trade Radio told them to last week.

 

[Scorpus]

Strong support on the Richmond board for trading Pick 12 for Trengove.

Almost the opposite on here for trading Pick 10

 

[feenix67]

God it must be hard for those blokes on Trade Radio... filling up so much dead time. But Tex to WB? Who knew they'd stoop to comedy?

As for Danger - this is what I reckon. We stick fat with Danger, continue to keep him off the table. We need to show him we want him to be a one club player with us.

Next year, if he decides to walk:

a ) he looks like a mercenary
b ) we maintain our integrity as a footy club
c ) he's restricted FA, so we just match any offer then work a trade

What I think will happen: we keep him off the table, he signs a new deal with us by mid 2015, he becomes our next captain in 2016.

 

[Deaneus!]

Strong support on the Richmond board for trading Pick 12 for Trengove.

That's why they'll stay a middle of the road club and we'll go back to the top soon.

It's such painful listening, but I just can't turn it off.

God I hope we have a few decent trades up our sleeve at the moment. This trade period has seen some massive names get put up for trade but apart from a possible Cameron at the airport sighting, we have only been seriously linked to the likes of Giles, Schoey, Cheney, and McDonough. Trusting the club has something going but its a little disconcerting at the moment...

 

[Redleg Crow]

This is what shits me though. Tom Boyd hasn't even been in the AFL system for 5 minutes and he's requesting a trade to a certain club. It's bullshit.

How long was Buckley at Brisbane before he wanted the same, or Rocca at Sydney or... or...

 

[Redleg Crow]

Well if Boyd goes that kills that 0.00001% hope we had of getting Cameron

 

[Campbell's Chunky]

Well if Boyd goes that kills that 0.00001% hope we had of getting Cameron

Don't think that will be happening. Crows currently looking to trade pick 10 for 14 & 21 (Geelong).

 

[Crouch#44]

Tom Boyd what club?
