2023 List Management

[liz]

Do you mean Mclean will be resigned this week?

That is what Beatson said. He expects McLean’s signature this week.

[waswan]

Good news regarding Mclean and it sounded like they were on the front foot with others coming out of contract

Sounds likes Cleary is going to be matched and it's great that our picks are on the table for players

Gettable Show on AFL website:

- Twomey’s Phantom Form Guide has Sullivan at 10, but could come into top 8. Cleary not in top 25, but mentioned as being in top 30.

- Beatson was on:

Talked about rugby challenge (taking up potential NSW players without needing a draft)

Stephens has had a contract offer before home for most of the year, but hasn’t accepted yet as he and his team wanted more clarity re where he sits in the team.
Beatson says he is a wanted player.

McLean they have to have re-signed within the week.

They are in market for another key defender. Arnold still has some development to go.

Did not have any contract offer for TDK at all. Are tracking Ben McKay.

Prepared to trade first round pick for a player.

Prepared to trade for Gold Coast’s pick.

Be mad not to consider Grundy.

Not that focused on international (eg Irish) players as Cat B Rookies provide enough flexibility.

His best slider pick was Luke Parker. Almartey may become that in the future.

GETTABLE: Wanted Swan to shun rivals, Saints' six on market, clubs eye four Pies

Just been watching that 'Gettable' episode....very interesting chat with Beatson and yes, interesting what he said about Stephens. Will be fascinating to see if he wants to hang around and sign that contract.

Would anyone else agree that was by far the most open and transparent you have ever heard KB ?

Usually quite guarded and playful?

Are we being redirected down a road or what sounds quite certain but is actually a veil of mystery ?

Love how he tried to deflect Cleary to the 2nd Round

We aint getting away with that again after Gulden

[Auntie.Gerald]

Notes from interview:

Stephen’s - we have had a contract in front of him all season. His management has held off to see how he is involved in our team

Ollie and Gulden - we have presented long term contracts

McAndrews - contracted 2024 but considered developing player right now

Ladhams - didn’t add much did Kinnear but said he is struggling with injury right now and open to ruck options available

Active this off season - open to our first pick being traded said Kinnear. Quite concerned about finding support with Tom Mac being only key defender down back. We did want Barass.

Ben Mackay - interested and tracking said Kinnear

Gold Coast pick - we are open to what they are looking for cs what we may need to hold for trades

Brody Grundy - we would be absolutely mad not to look at a deal for Brody said Kinnear.

Contested beast - was evasive

Best value face pick last 10 years or so - Luke Parker an absolute beauty. Thought he would have gone way earlier.

Joel Amartey - thinks massive upside still

McLean - should be finalised this week Re his contract

Cleary - KB guessing a second pick

[Blood Fever]

Good performer with media. Who knows who we're after. He is a fox.

Well this interview explains the report tonight on Channel 7 that we are interested in Grundy.

[Mel_C]

There is an article on the Age reporting that Tom Harley is staying at the Swans and is not applying for the AFLs Head of Football role. The article is for subscribers only so I can't read the article.

Well this interview explains the report tonight on Channel 7 that we are interested in Grundy.

Lol. It was a question raised by the hosts. “Would you be interested in Grundy?” And a generic answer from Kinnear that they’d be mad not to consider it.

[Ruck'n'Roll]

Lol. It was a question raised by the hosts. “Would you be interested in Grundy?” And a generic answer from Kinnear that they’d be mad not to consider it.

It's amazing what the media can generate out of so little.

[Auntie.Gerald]

He could have said “with Hayden, Pete and Lachie we are all covered for 2024”

I mean….. KB could have……couldnt he?

Lol ????

[liz]

It's amazing what the media can generate out of so little.

By tomorrow morning I dare say we’ll have a 15 year, $2m pa contract offer in front of him.

[MattW]

Lol. It was a question raised by the hosts. “Would you be interested in Grundy?” And a generic answer from Kinnear that they’d be mad not to consider it.

I feel exactly the same as Kinnear as Grundy is exactly what we need. It may depend on whether Brodie is interested.

Him and McKay would be a free agency / great trade period.

[Markwebbos]

KB says our first round pick is available for a trade. Is there anyone out there worth spending it on?
