Strategy Trade and List management Thread Part 6 (opposition supporters - READ posting rules before posting)

I would've thought Collingwood would be fine for inside midfielders thougg?

They lost Taylor Adams to the swans and their depth in the midfield is thin.

 

[ossie_21]

We obviously don’t want him

Even though he deserves a chance, we are too stacked with mids compared to other clubs. We are already having to play mids out of position. He’d be 5th/6th in line for his role at best

 

[hatescaptcha]

We have Sam Lalor training with the club.

I’m bullish about this kid. Strong inside mid, cracks in hard, has good movement out of traffic and can kick a goal.

My early favourite for 2024.

He's been a class above playing as an underager as well

I commented a few times. Probably shouldn't have.

All the "I heard.."

No you didn't you read a gutter trash article from Montagna the biggest nuffie in the game who hates the dogs

He was "stolen from Geelong's zone" apparently

 

[Doggy]

I thought he was going to re-sign soon according to some here?

Read that a few times from Geelong fans was JUH in their NGA ?

Poulter reminds me of Schache: good composure and a reasonable user of the ball, but a lack of physicality. Not convinced (I hope he proves me wrong).

Have a look at his last game against Geelong went in hard runs back and forward nice kick has a future IMO.

Yep. Whispers behind the scenes is his already put pen to paper, been told that by a few people in the industry.

I don't believe shit until it's official tho.

It’s certainly believable that the club holds off an announcement of that magnitude. It’d likely be something to announce in the couple of weeks before the season starts.

Unfortunately I expect the season to be clouded with English & Baz contract talks regardless.

 

[VitalDread]

Don't fear about Marra people
same person that told me naughton was done weeks before the announcement, said Marra is all but done

Aren’t you the person who told me that Nahas was coming to the dogs?

Don't trust this guy people….

Hes going to Essendon, you just know it….

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Deals can be done in principle and then turned official pending something else, like the Dogs knowing their exact salary cap position with other contracts, not getting injured during pre-season, minor tweaking of incentives etc.

 

[dergert]

After the Griffen, Cross and Cooney fiascos I've been an anxious mess about our player retention. That being said, i could not be more confident of Marra being a one club player. Gut feels.

Cross was delisted, Cooney was pushed out, Griffen hunted pigs.

Wet toast bogans still banging on about busslinger for their 2024 second rounder

Amazing sense of entitlement for a rabble

Surprised they haven’t stated a Tim English Thread

They already have that one going somewhere.

They were getting English and Naughton for stuff all at one point. Not using pick 1, just a bunch of trash picks

Cross and Cooney should never have been axed imo. Both were treated like shit.

It’s under value sure but if Eagles finish last, offer their R2 and won’t budge, Buss wants to go and they threaten the PSD route then what’s your next move? Do we just call their bluff?

Please let’s not simply go down the “PSD is an empty threat and never gets used”. It’s been used in the last 3-4 years for Jack Martin and Jackson Hately when the clubs couldn’t agree.

You'd rather not fold for a packet of chips and be seen as fodder.

I'd be surprised if Freo also weren't interested.

My understanding was he was more than happy outside WA and this is another "he's from WA and we are entitled" just like SA are with their home products (eg Cooney and Griffen)

I would rather take a R2 than risk losing him for nothing, in the same way the trade we did for Dunkley while unders was better than nothing, but I understand taking a multi-year view.

I don’t think the Eagles fans are wildly off though. If I was in their position I would similarly be wanting the club to aggressively target young players leveraging contract status and draft position. I respect that infinitely more than the Kangas approach of just putting your hands out to the AFL.
