Strategy Mid-season draft 2019 / Supplemental Selection Period

[RussellEbertHandball]

Another classic Cripps list management decision.

 

[Doctor Feel]

What a waste of time

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I almost talked myself into getting a little bit interested in this farce.

They probably already have the Cam you're playing feel good video planned.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Mmmm so we take an SANFL player without upsetting the SANFzL...bummer.
Good to see Will Snelling get a lifeline.
Crows must be saving their pennies for Grundy.

 

[raptalia]

So I take it Cam Sutcliffe, who probably won't get a game, goes onto our main list while Jarrod Leinert, who is getting a game, will remain on the Rookie List ?

I will be pretty pissed off if at the end of the year we delist Jack Trengove and retain Sutcliffe.

 

[El_Scorcho]

Okay.

I was joking about Butcher but he'd be closer to selection than Sutcliffe surely.

Doesn't even improve the maggies. We could at least have pinched the best player at SANFL level for the laugh.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Lol outrage pervades every Port thread these days.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

15 disposals and 44 DT points on Sunday. Not in the top 6 best players for Port. Really locked it in with that performance.

 

[rumoursofwinter]

It feels like some sort of dodgy accounting loophole i don't understand.

 

[manureid]

Haha. Portz

 

[Nihilus]

hmmmmm our pick (pick 9) - Cam Sutcliff 187cm Defender - (good luck to him)

now we have

Houston 186cm Defender
Burton 191cm Defender
Broadbent 189cm Defender
Hammer 185cm Defender
McKenzie 191cm Defender
Bonner 190cm Defender
Gardner 184cm Defender
DBJ 181cm Defender
Mayes 187cm Defender
Jonas 188cm Defender
Fredrick 178cm Defender

and that doesnt include key Defenders

Clurey 193cm Defender
Lienert 195cm Defender (not classed as a key Defender but has the height for it)
Howard 199cm Defender
Grundy 194cm Defender
Watts 196cm Defender (started this year as a Defender)


so 12 players for 3 small defender positions

 

[Adz2332]

Unless we didn't want anyone and there was thought he was doing such a good job we would give him the 50k as a bonus

 

[Hot Port]

Essendon took Will Snelling!

[Grave Danger]

Perhaps theadelaidefootballclub has played us for mugs.

 

[PAFC27]

Cam Sutcliffe as a pick is actually taking the piss.

I'd take Michael Barlow to play the same role, any day of the week.

 

[Nihilus]

the good thing about the mid season draft is the cows didn't take a pick

 

[chickentendies]

Okay.

I was joking about Butcher but he'd be closer to selection than Sutcliffe surely.

I wasn't joking, bring back Butcher

 

[Leaveit2charlie]

the good thing about the mid season draft is the cows didn't take a pick

And saved 70k plus resources.

 

[El_Scorcho]

I wasn't joking, bring back Butcher

Drafted to any other club he'd be a solid 150+ game packbusting KPF now.

Still gets me angry to think about how badly we wasted him.

 

[It Just Is]

I like Cam and wish him all the best but honestly what were we trying to achieve here?

He’s not the right type, skill set or age. Even weirder is that he was already at the Magpies so doesn’t improve our prospects there either.

Watch him get a game or two between round 20-23, probably playing as a tagger, before being promptly delisted.

No. It's a deal made long ago. See if if happens again next year.
We could have done something interesting though.

 

[philthy05]

100% they just wanted to use this as a loophole to pay our sanfl listed captain a bit more money

Stupid

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

This club! chortle

here is Cam's Freo Profile

https://www.fremantlefc.com.au/player-profile/cameron-sutcliffe

SUMMARY
The defender displayed his elite running ability with a second-placed finish in the first time trial back at the club. Sutcliffe moved in and out
of the senior side in 2017, playing the final five games of the season.

WHAT THE COACH SAYS (Michael Prior)
Cam’s trained really well all summer. He’s been up there in his time trials and has been strong right through. We expect Cam to have a really good year for us.

Season by Season
The 25-year-old played 13 games in 2017 and reached the 100-game milestone in the final game of the season against Essendon. The 25-year-old averaged 15 disposals with his best performance coming against GWS with 21 touches, eight marks and five tackles.
