The Trade/Draft Rumour Mill

Featured Replies

Since we can't attract talent. Must be time to consider trading blokes like frawley. Can't afford him to walk for nothing. May get a first round pick but it's slim hope

 

If the Swans are prepared to part with a midfield gun and their first pick or a mid-range midfielder, I would nearly suggest they're declaring that they're unlikely to challenge for the flag next year. Unless of course they think Buddy is the missing link and will take them to the flag next year.

I suspect that buddy was recruited as their Marquis player, the membership attractor. the attendence cruncher.

goodes is about to finish, & buddy will be the face.

I think now they'll have to make their numbers balance out, especially when they Lose their COLA benefit soon.

..... so maybe they are looking to offload some interstater's they'll struggle to hold with a smaller $$$$ to pay players.

we have something they'd like. for their future interests.

No way.... 2 picks

for Frawley, I'd want GWS's P1 & their 2ndRnd Pick.

Or Frawley + our 2ndRnd Pick, for GWS's P1 & Dylan Shiels + Dom Tyson.

 

Did richmond really just give up their 2nd round pick for Hampson?

That is poor trading. Injury prone. Can't kick. Goes missing when the pressure is on.

Sure he is just a back up ruck. But 2nd round pick for a backup ruck? Jesus. Hope we don't do anything as stupid as that.

You'd get nothing like that next year in free agency. Good luck getting chip to gws

why do you reckon I'm mentioning it Now

IF, Chip wants out next year?, I'm certain he doesn't want to go near the Saints now.

He would want some pretty decent $$$$$, & success.

GWS are on the threshold of just that success. if they can hold the list of talent together. & add some more maturity & size. Frawley would pin down one end. with Cameron the other.

I don't want Chip to leave but he was talking about it early this year, it was publicly suggested in the media that he wants out, & to go to the Saints.

If he's still got it in the back of his mind, then trade Now.

theyre probably still on a high after re-signing Dusty !!

Don't forget DL that things that have been coming out of the club since Roos took the reins has been all positive except for Col but some would c that as positive too.

It will be a nervous wait I agree until he signs but I am more confident now of keeping him than I would have 3 months ago.

 

If the rumours were true about that midseason blue at a nightclub, chip will be very happy about Sylvia gone

Now that is a rumour that needs to be clarified...

I wonder if Col was the last of the bad seeds at the club and if they weren't too unhappy that he left.

If I was Viney and Mahoney and a team offered Pick 22 for Colin - I would take it.

We will find out for certain in a couple weeks.

Viney certainly didn't seem to mind and was probably expecting it.

Sylvia was the antithesis of what Viney ( both ) stand for. I can only imagine he was glad to see his back, as am I.

dees very quiet on recruitment. seems not many clubs interested in pick 2, I reckon improvement next year will come from current list and roos input...thoughts???

long way to go . Rome not built in a day etc

jump on the Dylan shiel thread. We have already started talking to them about a trade.

Yes, keep it! Nathan Freeman (Sandy Dragons player). Could be a gun as early as next year but if we have to wait a year or 2 who cares? I don't think he wants to wait either, like a bull in a china shop!

true but oh so quiet

I liked what Balmey said about Geelongs trades. "We don't talk about them till they're done."

MFC would do well to follow the same process.

lol this guy

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • 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.
