2022 List management, trading, drafting

[707]

Mitch Cleary reporting we are in discussions with Aaron Francis.

WHAT! The guy is a pick 6 spud who always looks a bit half hearted in his efforts and not a hard at it type, lacks a tank. Cops an absolute flogging from Essendon fans.

Is a certain delist I would have thought but Dodoro would want our second rounder!

We have lost the plot if we've even thought of making this phone call.

Please let this just be the mad ramblings of a trade period reporter

Aaron Francis is indicative of the part of the trade market that we find ourselves this year. Maybe we can pluck a risky player and make it work out. Similar to Lewis Taylor, who didn't work out, but looked a reasonable risk at the time. We just have to acknowledge that we are not big players this year and will be mostly working the edges.

Why not, I think the Swans risk/reward balance on such players is pretty positive. Spending up big on players hasn't yielded Swans flag since 1933.

Ronke! He's the best of the lot and the only one who I think could hold down a senior spot on about half the teams.

I thought he was pretty hard done by this year, and was very impressed with his attitude in the 2's. If we could combine his and Clarkies strengths, thereby negating their weaknesses, we'd have a superb player,

Maybe keep Ronke unless someone comes in for him. The others can all go, I’m afraid. Pretty simple as it’s a tough business.

That's a good idea.

They will have loads of draft picks. Maybe something can be worked out with them. I don't think we can get anything for Taylor, but Ronke, Wicks, Bell and Clarke all should have some value, even if we are talking about 3rd round up or draft position swaps. Maybe we can hold 1 for depth, but they would all have a better future at another club.

Wicks has a contract

I don’t mind adding Francis he will cost bugger all and I will back our systems in to turn him around . Definitely potential there in my opinion. Surely an upgrade on Melican . Also he can swing forward with Reid possibly only having a year or 2 left

Tear it up please. Don’t want to use TB’s description on any of our players but you know what I mean!????

Btw, where’s Neon? Haven’t heard from her for a while!

Going after Francis means dealing with the Dodo, if he’s still at the Bombers next week

According to Foxsports, COR is one of our backup KPDs!

Dodo will still be there, knows where all the bodies are buried and has a copy of the lost injections spreadsheet. He's a Teflon Don :-)

Surprised neither of the Adelaide clubs is coming for Francis given he's a likely delist.

Trad Radio this morning speculating on the Swans making a big play for De Goey. Their suggestion is we give up all of our first three draft picks for him. I cannot see that deal happening, although we may well have some interest in him despite the high risk involved.

Is he that good? I mean, three picks is Jeremy Cameron territory

Trade Radio is basically an ad platform for plumbing supplies and diet pills, with a bit of nonsense and a lot of platitudes from has-beens like Silvagni and Wallace thrown in to fill the gaps in between.

De Goey - no thanks. Rather not have known sex pests and misogynists in our team

Then add in his inconsistency and historic contract/$$$ difficulties. Big N O

The operative word here is “speculating”.

LOL. Sounds like a perfect description.
