List Management 2015

Yep, I'd be surprised if Kreuzer ended up with with us.

I think he will stick with Carlton

The press conference was interesting listening. Beveridge wants to keep Minson and doesn't want to move on any of our players. He wants to keep the list together.

And from what it's worth when i listened to the press conference, I wouldn't be surprised if we signed Kreuzer

Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge says Will Minson's career at Whitten Oval is secure despite the All Australian ruckman being out of favour for much of the season.

"Every week we consider Will and our ruck situation," Beveridge said.

"All it says is that he's next in line or the one after that at the moment.

"Will's a contracted player into 2016, so he's a required player.

"His long-term future is secure."

I call bullshit!

That's called trying to convince the rest of the clubs that they'll have to pony up a suitable trade in order to prise him away from the kennel. Not sure if any other club will take the bait.

Each week we consider Will. (And mostly dismissing playing him early in the week. True comment)
Will is a contracted player in 2006. (True comment)
Will is a required player. (Because our contract requires us to keep him this year. True comment)
His long term future is secure. (He will get a large salary next year, no matter what club he goes to. True comment)

What does everybody think minson is worth ? I would say second round pick or possibly a 1st round pick upgrade. Potential suitors may be the 2 qld teams. Also may he be in Beveridges calculations next year when the sun is abolished?

Not for a 30 year old who isn't best 22

At the very best it would be maneuvering of deep 4th round picks assuming there was interest.

Yep. His high water mark for trading is long gone. 4th round is about right, or an upgrade somewhere higher maybe depending on the gap of picks.

[LostDoggy]

I reckon he'll be tradeable because there's always a club needing a back up ruck (we traded Hudson at 32YO and he went on to play for 2 further clubs). I reckon we'd get an upgrade of about 10 picks, say Minson and pick 50 for pick 40 or something like that.

Hope this works. Funny...

Minno was traded for a deep pick 70 to Brisbane. If we managed to get pick 40, being the likely end of the 2nd round after compos, for a pick swap we will have done extremely well. If there is interest, as you've said for coverage, which is feasible, I'd see it being for no better than a 4th round manoeuvre starting in the deep 50s, low 60s.

[LostDoggy]

But I'm saying pick 40 for Minno AND pick 50, it may be pick 60 for Minno AND 70, or whatever.

I doubt it'd a straight swap, just an upgrading of draft picks of less than 18 (1 round of selections).

Surely no one thinks Bevo is going to say who we are interested in and who we are looking to delist at a presser?
