AFL has extended trade period to 3 weeks...

Gives us a much better chance of moving on one or both of these compo picks in exchange for players like Gaff, Caddy, et al.

Teams like Essendon will be eventually exposed as time-wasters and moved on.

If we had 3 weeks last year we probably would have had time to land Caddy.

It will also be more painful.

    Andrew aka the AFL- just wants to be talking point of sport for 12 months of the year. If we are given to much of it then the public will get sick of it. #ToMuchofaGoodThing!

    Damm, now we can't call it trade week anymore. How about Blackjack Period or Pontoon time?

    Great. Now trade period will be 2 weeks and 4 days of no action, instead of 4 days of no action.

    Until teams are able to trade in-contract players with no restrictions, there will be no change in the pace of the AFL trade period.

    **Correct me if I'm wrong, but contracted players must agree to trades they are included in.

    October 1 - 18 Free Agency Signings

    October 9 - 26 Trade Period

    I think it is a good move, and by splitting up the weeks it will allow teams that lose FAs to trade in the last week, or The Only Relevant Week of The New Trade Period.

    The industry considers this arguably the best draft ever, so I'm not sure why some are keen to trade our compo picks, I'm certainly not. Especially as the kids/midfielders coming through these days aren't far off "ready made".

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
