List Mgmt. 2024 List Management Part 2 📃

is that pretty much a fair swap?

Good question....not easy to answer.

Both young, both contracted, both generally best 22.

Scale tips towards SDK on position, as quality KPP's generally command a bit of a premium.
Scale tips back towards Cerra on exposed form, because I think his best has been better than TDK.
Scale then tips back towards SDK on fitness cause of Cerra's repeat hamstring issues.

I reckon SDK probably valued a little higher, but not sure by how much. Could be as much as a second rounder, could be as little as a token pick that neither team would even use.

SDK is out of contract end of next year, but not a free agent. I reckon Geelong would push for Cerra plus something in the vicinity of Pick 35-40 at a minimum, more likely a genuine second rounder in the 20s, knowing that if they hold him to his contract for next year he probably ends up the subject of a bidding war and nets them a bigger return at the end of 2025....or they convince him to stay and they keep a good young KPD.

Cerra > Cats
De Koning < Blues

Dropping off and picking them up now

Shout out if you need help clearing out Cerra's locker.

SDK would be epic.

Geelong wasting him trying to turn him into a ruck anyway.

Hand him over.

 

[ITCHY EYEBALLS]

I’d hand over Cerra and a F1…..probably a Sauber or Alpine….at a stretch a Haas.

2023 williams

 

[Accidental genius]

SDK would fit in perfectly

I think that would be a more important get than Houston…

thoughts??

 

[Dunna Heartknee]

Cerra + Pittonet
for
SDK + ?
I've got no idea what the other value is so, I'll leave it to the better judges to sort this one out

 

[mochacinolatte]

SDK is a better need than Houston, but I doubt we got picks to Satisfy Geelong. How much is he worth?

To us he’d be worth 2 x 1st rounders?

Young KPD that i really liked in his draft year, which I’d like if the club was hopefully in his manager’s ear is Ollie Murphy, Vic boy stuck behind a fair few Key Defenders at Freo…

Slid back a little further than i expected, had him around a possible end of first to 30 ended up being selected at pick 41, probably imo due to his light frame 200cm and 75kg, definitely needs a few years of putting on size and strength to his frame…

Great height, skills and athleticism, has the football IQ in contested situations or as a interceptor, great hands and reads the ball very well in the air, Vic Metro rep who had a great championships and year overall, also made the All Australian team…

Only his first season at Freo, have no idea if he’d be interested in coming back home to Victoria or if they would be willing to facilitate a possible trade, had a couple of niggles earlier in the year but played 10 games in the WAFL, with a year under his belt already and plenty of upside, he’s one I’d be keen on for our KPD future…

Possibly a late second rounder would be a good deal all round…

Our backline is shit.

Get both.

Reckon you’re on the money with that.
Would be a distinct upgrade on what we currently have - didn’t realise he was actually taller than Tom (201 vs 204), a long term fix, fixes a big weakness, would enable Weiters to go the next level

Saw him at Rye Back Beach last week...he is one tall dude

Get both.

Can we afford both in one offseason?

Im thinking maybe not but not certain.

If we need to dump salary I would part with Cerra and Williams.

TDK signature still pending too... won't come cheap.

Geelong does not let players go that they rate. When was the last time? SDK is a Pipe dream.

Agreed, the hillbillies never leave once they get to the cats...

Reckon on balance he makes a fair and valid point that they don’t leave.

Tim Kelly.

They will trade them if forced, but they'll make you pay through the nose.

Generally though, their good players love the lifestyle and the success, so they stick around. The players they trade away are the ones who don't make the cut for whatever reason.

Sam De Koning won't be a bargain pickup, he'll be expensive. To suggest otherwise is immensely underrating him. A single first round pick would be a bargain for him imo, he'd be more than that.

Was a fullback in AA conversation at 21 yrs old in a grand final winning team - he was the key pillar down back and looked unbeatable for most of the season. He hasn't reached the same heights since, but he's 23 yrs old with exposed form at the highest level in a premium position, he won't be a cheap get.

Cerra and Future 1st for SDK

Cerra and Future 1st for SDK

Wouldn't mind that. Not sure what their KPP stocks in terms of ages and depth are like to see how keen they would be tbh, but on the surface, I like it more or less for both sides.

Yup, pay that. But I'm not sure the AFL would help the Blues out with a fistful of ambassador dollars.

Yeah maybe....

I know Williams is injury prone as well but I really liked what he is able to do in our f50. Really good footy IQ and good skills.

He'd be a big loss imo.
