Would you be interested in any of these?

What are they worth?

    We should be all over Taylor Adams.

    Nineteen years old, averaging 21 disposals per game for GWS, a phenomenal effort considering their midfield is way less experienced than even ours and he gets zero protection.

    Would gladly hand over our 2nd rounder (pick 20?) for him, but GWS would not take that.

    Taylor Adams for sure. A similar type to Prestia and with a few pre seasons under his belt is showing what he is capable of

    Swap Jamar for Adams.

    GWS want a senior ruckman, we want midfielders.

    Done.

    3rd round, 5th round and 1st round(10-20)

    I think Adams is most desired, the other two aren't really guys with a huge scope for improvement.

    GWS are clearly targeting senior players this coming offseason, i think a player trade is more likely than a draft pick trade.

    That's fair, I also forgot they have to cut their list size over the next year or 2. I wonder if they would take a fitzy, Dunn or Davis? Probably ask for gawn, hogan or frawley though won't they. I'd entertain Jordy, jamar, spencer or possibly blease or Strauss.

    Sure if they'd come.

    I'll prob get blasted for this comment, but I reckon bring shane tuck across for a year.

    Can't get a game with the Tigers.

    Clearance machine, mature body.

    With our forward line next year, clearances and long bombs into the fwd line will be great for us.

    Jamar doesn't upgrade them though, he's an older version of Giles. Big, cumbersome and can break even in the middle. I'm not sure he represents value to GWS. Certainly not the same value as Adams.

    They'd probably rather a guy like Stef Martin who could've given them a more complimenting role. And they'll be looking for experience but I still think they'd prefer guys with at least a few years left rather than on their last legs. Pretty much the younger the better

    Shhhhhhhhhhh!!! Don't tell them that! The rest of the comp still think Jamar is a gun...

    You really think that? He's still worthy as an AFL player because he can compete and nullify most opposition ruckman. Not every club has 2 rucks who can do that hence why Collingwood got Hudson out of retirement. But thats about it.

    Just my impression, but I think the rest of the league hasn't quite caught up yet to much he's struggling and still have the perception of him as a very good ruck.

    They have Bellchambers in the bag 'stuie', put your money on it if you are a betting man.

    Tay Adams is very keen to come back close to Geelong, but we'd have to offer a lot more than Jamar.

    I think our 2nd round pick might get it done, but other teams will offer more.

  • Quote

    Richard Douglas and Luke Shuey

    Shuey's an interesting one. Do you know his contract status, tatu?

    I'd be happy to offer our second and fifth round pick, and Jamar for Adams and their 4th round pick.

    Tuck has been injured (shoulder) since round 7, on comeback trail now

    Horsley = a slow overweight Magner with worse disposal. No thanks.

    Offer them Spencer for Taylor! Win-Win!

    Adams wants to return home to Geelong unfortunately. Wells will make it happen and the Cats' midfield rejuvenation will continue apace.

    They are awesome.

    No to Horseley and neither here nor there for Anthony.

    This should be our "Kennedy/McGlyn" moment where we target midfielders on the verge, but being held back by a team that already has an abundance - Think Geelong, Sydney, Fremantle.

    I would suggest we look at Horlin-Smith, Christensen, Bird, Parker, Moribato, Crozier, etc.

    It doesn't matter if they are contracted, contracted players get traded as well. Work out what we need e.g. inside midfielders with 3 yrs development who are not getting the opportunity (in the midfield) their form/talent deseves and then chase them hard!

    Next to no chance but Christensen and Parker would be nice.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
