List Mgmt. COLLINGWOOD Trade and F/A Discussion 2023

[Jekyll and Hyde]

Adam’s is a pretty good forward

0.6 goals per game and 1.1 tackles inside 50.
We won’t miss him if he wants to go.
He’s 30 and starting to become injury prone.

 

[KinderSmock]

If he stays, needs a massive preseason in the gym.

No, Kreuger is to live in bubblewrap for the entire pre-season or else he'll end up playing in his preferred position FP.

Forward pine.

 

[3rdMan]

0.6 goals per game and 1.1 tackles inside 50.
We won’t miss him if he wants to go.
He’s 30 and starting to become injury prone.

He was not only a forward and his assists and score involvements were also quite high. We'll definitely miss him and need a replacement inside mid as Mitchell struggles to consistently play a full game there. The only question would be whether that replacement comes from within the club or without.

 

[KinderSmock]

They got pick 7 as well. What a deal.

Ned got rid of our over paid players and got picks in return. Genius

Ned Guy wasn't as bad as some make him out to be. His fatal flaw was siding too much with the players and not advocating for the best deal of the club.

 

[KinderSmock]

Blooket is better.

Not wrong here.

Love the teacher jokes

When they're not striking, in a classroom or complaining about their job, teachers can be found on BigFooty boards such as this one.

Well based on that reasoning, he really was bad for the club.

1.1 tackles inside 50 is 3rd best on our list

 

[Fat Jesus]

Adams a gun. We get well compensated and all is well.
Otherwise I'll throw a fit.

 

[Apex36]

I’m hearing that Murphy is retiring with a little push from the AFL. Might be why Will Kelly hasn’t been delisted yet.

Sounds like you’re being fed some BS tbh.

I love my job. Get to muck around playing blooket all day.

 

[Apex36]

Third option is there might be external interest for Kelly, and we're hoping to trade for some scraps.

He's not popular on here, but he does have nice attributes and has had an interrupted run.

He’s barely had any injuries for 2 years now. The interrupted run excuse isn’t valid anymore.

Josh. Carmichael.
Reef. McInness.
Beau. McCreary.
Harvey. Harrison.
Pat. Lipinski.
etc.
etc.

 

[3rdMan]

Sure it is. It slows development, which for a tall is already slow. Did still miss some games in 2023 as well, not sure about 2022.

He did play some good VFL games, question will be what the club feels his ceiling is and whether he can play a role, even as backup. Whether we then keep him will depend on what other options are available.

 

[Apex36]

He played a defensive forward role, his job wasn’t kicking goals it was nullifying oppo defenders. There’s a reason he was 5th for goal assists league wide this year.

 

[Freddo]

Harsh bro. Kreuger could well kill it next year. A little luck with injuries and who knows.
In hindsight he may have been better than Frampton in the GF.
Not sure if he would have but..

Has literally shown nothing. He's awful

That’s exactly the reason why he was 100% as bad as people made him out to be

You missed the most likely, Macrae. None of these are proven inside mids at AFL level. If we don't bring in someone new then Macrae will get first crack at it I'd expect. At best, he'd take time to get to Taylor's level, especially as he will need a second position, likely forward.

It's possible we simply give up on a second inside mid specialist, backing Nick, Jordy, Crisp etc to be enough, but I think we'd prefer to have one. Mitchell needs to be managed within games, or at least to have a backup, and specialist inside mids are useful even if you have more general mids who also play inside.

Some say he was hopeless because he traded out Treloar et al. Those decisions weren't terrible, just the way he went about it.

 

[BEEG]

All the players up for grabs the one that really seems like a great fit is Liam Henry.

Surprised we haven't gone hard for him.

Yep. McRae. Forgot him. Though, he seems more mid, less forward.

This one has shocked me too, he's a perfect fit. I doubt we would match the money St Kilda is offering though.

I was replying to he’s a good forward.
My point is again, IF he wants to go, he won’t be missed that much. He’s not Toby Greene. He played forward as he was squeezed out of the midfield.

 

[manicpie]

Has anybody else heard that we might be interested in Rhys Matheson, or are people just feeding me crap. And do we even want him

 

[RobJD]

Funny thing, whilst there's something that I don't like about Matheson, he did spring to mind as a cheap inside mid option to cover for Titch (in the event that we lose Tayz).

 

[Jafo]

Heard the Barometer had a good VFL year. Maybe need another big bodied player and honestly, after Leggy this year anything is possible with players we underrate.
