This was posted on Big Footy, so treat it with a grain of salt, but it's been suggested that Paul Wheatley was traded to the Swans for a 2nd round pick. Deal has been done in principle, but both clubs are waiting to attempt to upgrade the pick if possible through the O'Keefe deal.

In the interests of everyone's blood pressure, may I suggest that these posts include the heading (rumour only) until the facts are fully confirmed.

Haha thanks D'land! I almost died a little.

I'd be very happy with that!

Thanks demonland, that will prevent me from buying a new fan and getting a cold flannel.

Sydney's 2nd round pick is pick 30.

Quick! Where do we sign?

I am happy if true, best draft ever they are saying so I will be happy as many picks as we can get

Who gets the number 31????

Barassi!

I'd be happy if we kept Wheatley personally. He was easily one of our better players this year.

Frankly, he's pants. His kicking is unbearably overrated by Melbourne supporters. Every now and again he'll hit one sweet, but just as often he kicks a horrible mung. He must have record numbers for kick-in blunders.

Aside from his kicking, he's just another dime-a-dozen half-back possession accumulator.

thats rubbish!

would surprise me i know that he is massively popular amongst the playerd and in particular dean bailey

i'd definitlytrade him- took him until this yr to fully show his potential. a nothing playerof about 8 years. 8 years too late wheats!

diablo- couldn't have written a better summary of paul wheatley myself- i commend you

According to friend, this rumour was just mentioned on the radio (SEN maybe? I don't know). Whether that strengthens or weakens it I don't know.

if he goes to the swans, and plays like he did this year, he'll be ok for them. setting up play off half back with tadgh kennelly and goodes. but i'd rather a draft pick than have him play 2 okay years of footy then retire/delisted

SEN passed it off as just speculation Titan. They received it by email and sms. Just a rumour.

Where do I sign?

im still trying to find out but i believe that wheatley to sydney can be confirmed!!

we get a second round pick!!

if true i have mixed feelings.....

source goose?

i'd definitly do the deal- let's hope something is done tomorrow morning if this is true!

If this is true.......who would we be looking at for pick 30?

the best player left on the board at that stage.

Its utterly pointless trying to guess who'll be left at that stage

For pick 30 I'd defiantly take it.

The interesting thing Sen said is they received a sms and a email saying the same thing moments apart.

if it happens it will happen early in the week.... eg tomorrow morning!!

the longer it goes the more chance it has to tinker out....

For all we know they were sent by two Demonland readers who both saw this rumour and decided to tell SEN.
