Strategy Trade and List management Thread (cont in Part 2)

[BRWB]

Good news on Wallis and Libba.

Not sure on the uncertainty on Campbell. Bev won't play him - maybe its just uncertainty as to whether we trade him or delist.

Thinking on rucks, I'd be happy keeping Rough as a fourth ruck on a min chips contract. Would far prefer that to recruiting a Z Clarke. If Rough has better offers, good luck to him and we rookie list a mature ruck.

Seems Power is keeping a tighter grip on the contract and purse strings than Jmac. Easier to do when the club finishes 13th than a flag winner.

Keen on Shiel. Would prefer to lock a deal in now to pick him up as a FA next yr rather than spend high picks on him. We are so overdue to pick up a quality FA/trade.

Don't you mean sauces ??

SOSes...

Now I'm concerned about losing Brad Lynch. I think he he's going to be an absolute gun. Is there any likelihood another team could pry him away? Do we have first rights to use a pick on Lynch or can another team jump in earlier? Apologies for my lack of draft knowledge.

 

[WallyStringhaus]

McRaeBF's posts are so bizarre and out of this world that i often wonder whether he is really Shane Biggs and is maniacally laughing everytime he hits the post reply button.

 

[JJHunter]

Wallis and Libba locked in

Journalist writes an article saying several dogs are likely to leave.
[BigFooty] - what would they know they have a grudge against the clubs, its all speculation and no truth to it.

Journalist writes an article suggesting Libb and Wallis are "Likely" to resign
[BigFooty] - you ripper fantastic news I knew they would stay with us etc Ill put number 3 on my jumper now.

Point is don't believe anything until its fact.
Its still all speculation until everything is signed off.

 

[dergert]

Phew.

Dunno about ghost. I really rate him but he is a well loved figure at our club, can't see him going

Lynch two year deal with us

 

[TBOW]

Obviously nowhere near the excitement value as talking about trades for Shiel or Kelly, but I'm wondering if we can work out a point boost trade with Geelong.
They currently have no picks between their first and third rounders but then have Richmonds third plus Carlton and GC''s 4th.
That is currently picks 54, 55 & 56 but will probably push back further.
If we offered our third rounder that is a more usable pick for them & more draft points for us.

I know they have Brownless as a FS this year but I believe he is projecting as a later pick.

Apparently Shiel and Kelly share a house, and there is a locked room whenever team mates pop over. Patton for one is very agitated about it, and determined to get into the room.

Here’s a sneak preview of what’s on one wall...

 

[jdz101]

Glad to see Wallis returning with Libba. Extremely disappointing that dahlhaus looks gone.

A severe hit to this team's identity.

Disappointing I agree, but onwards and upwards... cede nullis.

 

[Dale4captain]

Not Dogs related but GC asking price for May is DeGoey & Langdon.

 

[BatteredBulldog]

Glad Libba and Wallis will re-sign.

These two are the juiciest parts of it.




You'd think Lynch will stay and if Dahl goes it is likely we will keep Jong for depth. Campbell likely gone as well. Would have thought Redpath would be good depth, but I can understand the club wanting to trade him out.

 

[BatteredBulldog]

Redpath will retire. His knees aren’t up to AFL anymore.

Hahahah good on them.

Tony Cochrane at it again?

Fair play imo. If someone wants to poach your captain, either tell them to pay up or piss off.

Ambit claim surely.

Collingwood would surely have interest in Adams. Especially if the May deal falls through.

Any good word yet on if they'll match for Lynch? The while footy world's treating it as a foregone conclusion that they won't but I've still got hope they will.

 

[Mattdougie]

Is it possible Adams was told in his exit interview that he isn’t guaranteed best 22 next year?

I have zero problem trading him he is made of glass

They should. Then go to Carlton this years no 1 pick and the compo pick as well.

 

[Pannalstaroz]

I don’t think I’ve ever been less anxious heading into silly season.

We have our base set with elite young talent. Dal, wallis, Roughead and Adams don’t concern me at all.

Exciting times.

Saved me the hassle. Ta.

Never been more confident with a Dogs list than I am with this one.

It’s seriously good.

 

[Sentinel]

Problem is that Cochrane has form with both Ablett and O'Meara. Ablett was not allowed to leave until his contract was up (he did) and O'Meara was only being traded for an established star (he went for pick 10 and a 2nd rounder). His credibility when it comes to these matters isn't exactly high - talk is cheap.

 

[compact72]

Not believing the article until they sign

Feel exactly the same. No point carrying 'guns' who rarely play.

Wonder if Adams has had a gutful of injuries and wants to try another club's rehab room? Mayne North or the Hawks?
