Opinion Player list management and game plan 2019

[Holden Hillbilly]

What’s a reasonable whisper ?

Bloke I met at the pub who has a cousin who is mate with a bloke in the cheer squad.

Legit.

 

[Nemisis]

If we go for sheil it will be our first from this and 1st from next.

I would only take Shiel if he could have his own personal bubble in the clubroom's so he doesn't catch whatever has hit the club in the last few years.

 

[plugger59]

What’s a reasonable whisper ?

second hand from a bloke who has some involvement in the club. I'm not claiming anything top secret. I assume other people would have heard as well. Maybe true, maybe not. But I'm not making things up.

 

[powermacs]

Nah plenty of clubs are into him. We won’t stand a chance.
Seriously, who would want to join this shambles we have become.

Yeah, would be hard to turn down the saints or Carlton.

 

[Janus]

Shiel is the player with explosive pace in the midfield stoppages that we need. I’d give up a lot to get him, because he would force opposition midfielders to sag off and give Rockliff time to generate a clearance instead of the hack shit we do at the moment.

If we turned Polec into Shiel it would be pants down lap around the table time.

 

[PJ Power]

I’d be happy to go for Shiel as long as there is a way we can keep one at least one first rounder for this year.

Yep.

If we used one first rounder this year (from Polec trade) and next year’s first rounder for Shiel, with something coming back the other way, say GWS second rounder next year, that would be a good and fair result.

We then pick up Lycett as a free agent.

We are left with pick 10 or so, pick 24 or so (Saints second rounder), pick 31 (our second rounder) and a couple of third round picks around 45-50.

We lose Polec and our first rounder next year and gain a second round pick next year.

Draft priorities then become:
Best available high possession, hard running, clean midfielder with our first pick
Best available tall forward with our second pick
Creative, quick small-medium forward or wingman with our third pick
Ready-made tall defender (eg current state level player with our fourth pick)
Another creative small-medium outside mid-forward

 

[PJ Power]

This is the year to get ruthless with Pittard and Hombsch. See if they are worth anything on the trade table between picks 25 and 35 or exchange for a forward.

Pittard for a player who could become a Tim Membrey or Jason Cripps type would be fantastic.

 

[Ports1870]

Two for Polly with a pick going to NM. Two firsts next year for Sheil.

Leaves us with two in this years draft.

Would be great but don’t think we could get two for Polec. Only way I could see that happening is if we trade Polec and our second for there first firsts this year and next year.

 

[Ports1870]

Yep.

They would probably want two top ten picks or a 2-5 pick for him.

nnnaaaah, once we get him - we'll play him in defence or the ruck

Immense salary cap problems they are possible going to push him out (force him to leave) becouse of How little money they have available.

Gun midfeilder, so pencil him in for Forward pocket or half back.

Half back pocket or forward pocket as defensive forward.

Edit, just saw the post above. SNAP

 

[Sewer de Lance]

It might be time to consider putting some of our veterans on the trade table (Boak, Ebert, Hoff, Gray etc) if it means we can gain an advantage in regenerating our list.

 

[scottjr]

What’s a reasonable whisper ?

When someone said we had a million dollars in the cap to go after an experienced player.

We can match any price and have the picks to do a deal.

There's no such thing as "We can't get"

So what you are saying is we can truly get a get brother?

 

[drcollossimo]

Heard a reasonable whisper today that you are going hard at Sheil.

Shiel at Port? well then that's stiffening


Can you all just imagine him laying out a tracer bullet to Charlie's concrete hands glory be me what a time to be alive

 

[Powerade 08]

Yes please, have always said we are one poorly skilled inside midfielder away from contending.

First rounder this year, first next. Whatever we need to do.

 

[benblinkau]

No way we should give up 2 x first round picks!

especially when they are pushing him out the door because of their salary cap and what they'll get when he's a free agent next year.

I won’t like your post because I wish it wasn’t true - but I agree, this Shiel talk is fantasy sparked by a throwaway tongue in cheek line from Choco

Exactly. All these people in here say crap like this, then complain when we have no draft picks.

Is he still dating Georgier?
