Recruiting AFL Trade & Free Agency XII - 💰💰💰

[Snake Charmer]

We need to bring back MySpace and the top friends rankings for these kinds of questions.

Odds on his top 10 would be full of a bunch of tonny kids working in local dairy’s

 

[Keystone agony]

Crows have a few moneyball plays

O.Ryan
C.Edwards
Sholl

Of interest, i think all contracted

are we in a position with list spots opening up to chase one though?

Would mean moving on a Shiel, SEH, Davey type maybe

Would mean moving on a Shiel, SEH, Davey type maybe

maybe a contracted guy, possibly Cox retiring with the concussion symptoms as well

 

[jannissary]

hypothetically, if we don't play ball with draper, would we be interested in trading for dante visentini? beyond the brothers aspect, i think he's played reasonably well this season. i do think he's contracted til 2027, though.

I'm keen, but let's see how Blakiston looks first. Zero issues if he's a fit 2nd or 3rd ruck.

 

[Donflicted]

If we do lose Drapes to FA and gain a first round pick reckon we should go for that pick 4 that GCS has for sale as well and trade out other guys in order to gain the required points for our NGA

I know its easier said then done though but if Rosa figured out a way to off load some players EG Parish Tstatas etc and turn them into late seconds we could walk away with 4 first round picks + our NGAs

Yeah the reports of the draft are not that strong but it seems to me we now target players with key strengths rather then upside there is some guys in this years crop that would strengthen our outside game which in turn should help our attack transition

again though its easier said then done its only an hypothetical

 

[Cup_o_Jobe]

If Duursma stays at or around that first pick mark, would we (instead of mega-trade week deals for Reid, Butters, an exhumed John Coleman etc.) consider using our picks to trade up for it? Romance of collecting the full set of Duursmas aside, he seems the archetype we've been crying out for.

If his form holds up I doubt West coast would be passing. Will have multiple first rounders, he suits their build, suits the ground and would be a key to retaining Reid long term.

Was more thinking is there a way to get

Willem Duursma (Pick 2) and Harley Reid

Does our first 4 picks + Hobbs + Draper + Tsatas get there

Does Harley even care about the Duursmas whats hia chance of still being in a relationship with the sister

Connor Budarick?

Pass has done 2 acls. Average ball user, poor defender

 

[Keystone agony]

Connor Budarick?

Yeh dont mind it, quite like it

The Rioli, Powell, Noble, Uwland, Jeffrey group is pretty strong and forced him out

Having to work with one brother-in-law would be bad enough, let alone 2!

[Red Black and Blue]

Connor Budarick?

Would not be opposed to this at all under the condition we take him to be a midfielder or half forward. He was only a defender due to the riches of Gold Coast.

 

[Vindicater]

A conservative approach that allows us to keep bringing in youth while keeping some experience around and building upon structures.

This assumes that the 6 month guys were brought in this year mainly to be coverage and won't set the world on fire.

Retire/Delist: Goldstein, Shiel, Laverde, El-Hawli, Lual, Davey Jr, Menzie, Smart, McMahon and Blakison

Re-sign: Reid, Prior, Draper, Hobbs, Setterfield, Bryan and Visintini

Free agent signing: Jeremy Howe

from Collingwood - 5 year playing/assistant coach contract. 1st year playing. 2nd year Howes choice as player/coach. 3-5 year Club choice on player/coach role.

Draft Hand: #7, 9, 26 and 27 - Grab Ollie Greaves and Fred Rodriguez to add a mixture of grunt and class to our mid/forward mixture. Use the two second rounders to match the bids on El-Achkar and Sweid and get some extra capital the next year.

 

[Snake Charmer]

Luke Beecken is one id take a look at as a line breaker off half back.

Connor Budarick?

I think atleast sweid will be after our 2nd rounders. If not then id pass

I actually think if Rowell isn’t signed in a few weeks he’s gone. What else does he need to see, and money isn’t going to be an issue. Suns would be worried with a tough stretch of games coming up.

Maybe waiting to see how the run to finals pans out ? He could easily wait until another 7 weeks and make a decision at the end of July.

Whats he going to figure in the next 7 weeks that he doesnt know now

Really?
What if they start doing an Essendon in July/August?
Not saying they will but they have not ever taken the next step.
