2022 List management, trading, drafting

[COB]

Thanks COB

So only an agreed trade between both clubs and or Gould can go to the lucky dip pre season draft to try his luck?

The only other possibility is that we delist him and he becomes a DFA and we get nothing. Probably unlikely but possible. Having said that given that he hasn't debuted in 3 years any trade wouldn't net us much. I hope and suspect we re-sign him as he showed improvement this year.

And it just gets better with the McCartins are locked in - Paddy for another two years, and Tom through 2027.

I can't read the article but that's great news. No doubt our recent on-field success, great coaching staff and culture are contributors to our young brigade signing on. And the money too.

Great news, that we have locked in our two tall defenders for the future. Clearly, the McCartin boys just love playing together and living in Sydney. The Swans camp is a happy place to be so I am not too surprised.

Here's the Swans announcement

Bloods brothers re-sign

What a week this has been for the club

I think it’s great Tom is locked in beyond Paddy at this stage too, would have been easy for him to look at offers in a couple of years.

Fantastic news. How good is this club.

[Kafka's Ghost]

The good news keeps on coming!

it doesnt seem that long ago that our tall key position defenders consisted of just Rampe.
The transformation of our backline is 80% responsible for our rise back up the ladder. No forward line worries me anymore.

Fantastic news to have the Double Macs signed up.

Great to see all these re-signings happening at this point - it is clear players are feeling very happy and wanting to be a part of what could be a very fine era for the club over the next few years.

Important to get some of the boys locked in now, in case glory does await us later in the month.

We are rolling out some significant resignings . Playing Devils advocate does this mean some cash has freed up and someone possibly might be leaving .

Buddy possibly retiring/ or Lions
Lloyd out of contract maybe has had a offer from elsewhere that we can’t/won’t match ?
Papley a year to go but teams look to get maximum value if there’s a chance they will leave . Will cost us more than the other two to resign .

Or maybe it’s just the fact we have no plans on chasing anyone this off season

It's also likely that none of the three in the past two days are on big money. If I had to guess, Fox might be going onto $250K plus incentives, P Mc $350K plus incentives and Tom Mc around $450K, and given the length of his contract, some clause with increases tied to the next CBA.

Unless Buddy pulls out an absolute blinder in the remainder of the finals series... I'm talking a 5+ goal haul... then a year by year deal is all he deserves.
If he goes, he goes. I think his turnstyle turning days are done.

Our cobbled together backline of ex-forwards, ex-outside mids and rookies is performing magnificently.
However I think you are under-rating our forwards - Papley and Heeney are stars at 26y.o. Hayward is a very good player at 23; McDonald has enormous upside and is 20.
It is not outrageous to suggest McLean/Amartey could become a regular AFL player. Not a star, but maybe to the standard of Dan McStay/Ben Brown.

The fact is, we and the rest of the world have no real idea about salaries. All I know is that we successfully navigated the lower Covid salary cap despite the huge Buddy contract in those years. Full faith in the club to continue to lock away required players and have space IF we actually wanted a player traded in.

We know how good the current 22 is, and we appear to have some potentially very good players developing at present in the VFL, and we have two late firsts for the ND. Organic growth is looking pretty good right now from where I sit :-)
