List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

But it’s probably the ginger nut they tried to pi55 off last year

Probably

Not sure how much substance or if any, but wouldn't be the first time a WA player eventually wants to head home when they have a young family.

No way.

Guess this is how we end up with 2024 1st round pick

Nah
Part of the impending Harley Reid deal.

Might as well look at Stengle as a FA if that’s the case

What pissweak language in that rumour. Would "entertain" a trade? If he doesn't request it outright then it is not happening

I thought Hill wanted to specifically move to Melbourne.

I'd assume it's very lazy reporting from a journo thinking "Indigenous small forward is possibly moving so what other high profile Indigenous small forwards can I use to keep my employer happy?"

If Schultz cost us 1x 1st round pick, Freo can pay 2x 1st round picks for Hill.
1 goes to the dogs for Smith, the other used in the draft, and Stengle comes for no draft capital.

Hill = 1st round pick, Bayley Smith, Stengle.

lol WA media…

I’d be flabbergasted if Bobby were to request a trade to WA after he was so desperate to get to Vic. He looks so incredibly settled and happy at the pies too.

 

[VinnieB]

Did you find it odd when Leon Davis was lowballed by the club and retired after a AA season? If he can earn an extra 750,000 over 3 years and set up his family then he should! Then there's the he should just be a grateful little aboriginal and accept what he's been given cabal, nup.

Didn't Davis walk out on the club expecting a WA club to pick him up and pay him the higher $$, but they weren't interested?

Freo? Nah, welcome to Collingwood Harley Reid. Bobby and future first would get it done.

Yes I’m aware this is fantasy, but so is Hill moving in the first place imo.

 

[VinnieB]

I hope to hell Stengle does leave Geelong for more money. I’m still off them for the Henry situation.

And before any mone says we got Mitchell out of that deal, and he essentially won us a flag, yes I know that. Geelong can still go and get f**ked though.

We were getting Mitchell anyway for one of our 2nd round picks.

More 1990 trivia - Longmire won the goal kicking by 1 goal from Peter Daicos and Liberatore won the Brownlow by one vote from Graham Wright.

If we'd snagged both of those could have been a nice trifecta.

North played Collingwood in the final H&A round that year. With an opportunity to kick what would have been his only 100 goal season, Longmire had the yips and kicked 2 goals 8 behinds, many of them very gettable.

I was there that day and felt quite bad for him, as his team were giving him every opportunity, and he just couldn't nail it.

We won easily regardless.

Seem to recall we belted their sorry butts that day

Stengle wants a big pay rise doesn't he?

 

[sr36]

When's he out of contract?

Considering his cousin has cashed in twice and Bobby has already moved once - I won't be surprised if he cashes in at some stage.

Nope. He was offered feck all in salary and then looked elsewhere.

One more year on his contract I believe.

In his Hall of Fame acceptance speech last night, Swanny inadvertently promoted Collingwood to the highest degree:
Whether you hate Collingwood or not, you have to understand, I was so fortunate to be drafted to a club like Collingwood, they give you such a head start. If you perform well at Collingwood, you’ve got such a head start in life because of the network and the amount of people that follow you and help you do your thing,

I understand that players, like Bobby, have many significant motivating factors to consider if they receive offers from other clubs. I fervently hope that Bobby never leaves us of course, but should that happen, Swanny's words may entice another player with extraordinary natural ability to come to us

 

[Jen2310]

Wouldn't be the first young player with young kids to eventually want to go back home where they have more family
While he does have his cousin Brad Hill here. I can understand that sometimes the pull of home can sometimes he too great.

Tyler Brockman comes to mind. Whatever happens, like Mitchell, he has succeeded in giving us what we wanted. A flag.

And still has this and next year to help us win another one

This year
The interview talked about possibly seeking a trade this year, so within contract.

Jumping at shadows a bit there Jen. Until I find out who the hell is "Peter" I won't be putting too much weight on that tweet.

I'm just saying.. if there is any ounce of legit truth to it.

No, after an AA season the club gave him a lowball offer and Magic said not enough to keep going so he retired, it's as simple as that.
