Strategy Trade and List Management thread 2.(...the waiting for the hammer to fall edition)

[Royale]

How about Sam Collins (a young KPD), Sutcliffe and/or Suban + 35 for Adams and Hamling?

I dont mind Collins or Sutcliffe. Could work. I think maybe slightly better than 35? Maybe another pick upgrade somewhere? I dunno. But I know that I rate Collins and Sutcliffe.

This Adams news has given me a 180 on my views on Hamling; we must keep Hamling provided we're not paying him silly money. Adams is gone, whether it's this year or next, and we can get a better deal for him than Hamling. 7 for Adams and 18 seems more than fair.

 

[Dannnnnnnnnn]

It appears we have a new Iago yebiga. One of our key defenders is clearly after more games in 2017, so is actively pushing others out.

My #1 suspect:

Just look at that suspicious smirk - clearly up to something...

Marchbank if we lose Adams?

Also i wouldn't want to overpay for Fyfe. His leg injury is serious and missed alot of footy.

Well Freo have pick 7, then nothing until 35. Pick 7 will most likely won't be traded unless an extremely good deal came around.

I've got a feeling that by the end of this bloke's career he will be regarded similarly to Matthew Croft.

My twitter question about Adams was answered on the AFL site.

Vague as answer.. you won't get him by screwing us

He's almost the perfect suspect. The one you'd least suspect.

 

[jdz101]

I'd do collins and one of their later picks for adams.

Then he can benchpress his way to glory in perth for a bottom 10 side.

Write it up.

If you want another McCarthy like situation, and for players to view your club as a group who will hang you out to dry as a player after public requests for trades, then you'll have to deal.

Made moves on our best key defenders. Poor form and you'll have to pay to retain any good relationship.

Mackenzie and next years 2nd rounder?

Mac is a good player still and I think can get back to his best with regular games - he probably won't get that with us.

Mac is great one on one, not great in the zone system Simmo uses - and we defend in a similar way.
On that basis I doubt he's on our radar.

 

[House_of_Dahl]

heck knew something was up when I saw I'd missed 6 pages in under an hour...

A bugger to lose him but like others have said a few positives:

- we didn't need him to win all our finals
- if opportunities were Hammer's main concern then that just got a whole let better
- Adam's should have good value - under contract and looked a gun.


Edit - and I didn't write "glory be" ha ha - thanks mods but seriously who says glory be in the last century

 

[Dav1d]

someone should call Roberts & make sure that he is happy

I feel like hugging his leg like a child and saying Please don't leave us Fletch.

Adams wants to go then we find another soldier.Have faith they will find another somewhere in this world.After all we are reigning premiers.Our system is proven and someone will fill the void.l am sure we will get adequate compensation and hopefully keep Hamling.Fast track Collins.

 

[The Inbetweener]

Has everyone missed the part in the article where it says he is happy to stay in 2017? Unless Freo give us over he won't be going this year

 

[House_of_Dahl]

If people think re-signing the Sh!t footballers players we have and Cloke and losing Adams,Hamling, Stevens and co is acceptable even from a bottom 4 team then I'm not the fool mate.

I did say I hope next week changes it but if we ended up with this conclusion and from what I'm hearing it's how we will it's embarrassing.

But hey let's all continue to circle jerk and pretend this isn't a bad outcome. We have been brilliant and had the whip hand to improve and SO FAR we have farked it.

Again as I said let's hope next week makes it clearer

Yeah our current list is so shit...if we don't make some big moves we'll never win a premiership with this list...oh wait

His best bud just re-signed and all the rivals for his spot want to leave, I reckon he's feeling alright

No but he will next year for less

 

[StringyDog]

Disappointing news but wow some over the top comments, people were all too happy when shoe was on other foot and Boyd came to us 1 year into his career. Hopefully we keep Hamling and get something decent for Adams, there is always a bigger risk when recruiting WA guys, hence why we have hardly any on list.

 

[Sentinel]

He also hasn't nominated a specific club, so if we keep him next year then Freo and West Coast can bid for him.

 

[Norm De Guerre]

Meh...being the reigning premiers gives me this wonderful perspective.

 

[BrisDog]

We just won the flag

 

[LittleG]

Adams was in the afl team of the week more time than any kpd this year. Clearly performing as an AA kpd!
Pick 7 is fair, as he is young and will give 8+ years of service.

When he can leave for next to nothing as he will be out of contract. Great.
