Emma Quayle tweeting that GWS starting to talk to other teams again now, she reads it as perhaps they've given up their last ditch effort to secure Jaeger...

Still a day and 1/2 to go.

According to the Age GWS actually wanted to get 2 U17 picks back with the promise that another pick taken would not be used on O'Meara. While it is clear that the AFL don't like the look of this it has left the door ajar. Unbelievable.

I agree Red. It just means that GWS need to work a bit harder at making their intentions a tiny bit less transparent. Truely unbelievable!

With the amount of ammunition we have, that would be an awful result.

The only justification can be that other clubs have paid massive overs for the picks. Even then......

Can't see how MD pick 2 can be traded ahead of pick 1 - what if pick 1 can't get done? Does pick 2 become pick 1? The Crows have ND 10 vs our ND 12 so we're in a bind there.

We should offer both compo picks if we need to to trump Adelaide. Our compo picks will be around the 10 mark and are valid for 5 years in drafts GWS aren't already raping. They have to be more valuable.

Straight swap, $cummy for Crouch.

Looks like we are not going to get O'Meara or Crouch

doesn't look good at all for us.

We might have stock pile these picks for a rainy day

the comp picks will be very handy to have when some of the young GC and GWS talents want to return home.

More oddness.

Adelaide List Manager David Noble on Gunston Trade "Overall result won't pan out until the end of the week".

Given no one has said how Adeliade have secured Pick 2/Crouch in MD methinks something dodgy is going on again and that if allowed to proceed by AFL MD1/O'Meara will be back to GWS.

Given this is a discreet trade between these clubs, not sure how GWS could come into it. I wonder if the comment by Noble is saying overall result is referring to all the trades they are trying to achieve this week.

I have a feeling they won't trade O'Meara and will look at getting him next year in 2012. Unless Gubby is creating a Picasso of sorts to establish a genuine on-trade.

Does trade week not run until Monday this year?

I think the trading surrounding the 17yr mini draft picks has to be resolved by the end of Thursday. Trade week continues to Monday, and the mini draft is run on Monday as well.

GWS won't accept a bid for Pick 1 (claim that no offers acceptable)

GWS has done deal with Adel that they will take Crouch

GWS will not seek bids for pick 3 and 4

MD commences with one stakeholder

Pick 1 is "passed"

Pick 2 Adel takes Crouch

Pick 3 pass

Pick 4 Pass

GWS has 3 trades left for 2012 MD

Jaeger coes into 2012 normal draft (where GWS expect to get 1st pick)

How does pick 2 get traded (apparently to Adelaide) without Pick 1 being decided first?

If Adelaide gets pick 2, and no other picks are given out, thats the same as it being pick 1 is it? :wacko:

Had enough of compromised drafts, odd mini drafts and GWS trying to rort everything.... Bring on 2012 trade week, and Jack Viney!

.... oh and I guess the 2012 season as well!

If that happens.... I would love to see Adelaide screw GWS over and take O'Meara anyway...

With likely priority picks in 2012 to Port GWS are not able to guarantee they would get first pick in 2012.

GC have pick 1 in Mini draft

AFL_PKeane Patrick Keane

by AFLNewsInsider

Trade p/work lodged. GWS swap pick one 17y/o mini-draft and rd2 pick (31) to Suns for rd1 pick (4) and 2010 Compensation mid-rd 1 (G Ablett)

That means O'Meara to Gold coast

Brisbane and GC still able to get PP in 2012 as well.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
