Lol unless we can set up a attractive personal deal, we can NOT get Mitchel for pick 20 alone. No way. I've asked all my Sydney mates, and they reckon around pick 10.

Well, that's nice. Maybe you should remind your Sydney mates that he isn't getting a game with them. He's not therefore worth a first rounder. Ridiculous.

Mitchell is also being paid over $500,000 per year. The Swans need to pay for Buddy, Tippett and Reid etc etc in the coming years. The Swans will off load him at seasons end.

I don't know about that, but his contract size will certainly work in our favour, not against us. We hold the cards here.

Gold Coast most likely for Malceski ATM guys. 3 years at 500,000. At then its West Cost and Hawthorn. This is all according to Damien Barret

If we can't get Malceski, Shiel (because he apparently resigned), Cameron (unlikely), Mitchell (Sydney or Carlton ATM), ROK (hawthorn likely), or O'Rouke (no indication of us being interested), then I wonder who we're going to end up getting this offseason. It might be a suprise, or we might just be going Into the draft...and if we don't get Petracaa...well that's going to b e even more dissapointment. Oh well, I'm optimistic...clearly...

Roos and co. play their cards pretty close to their chest in regards to trades and who we are interested in. While there was speculation that we were interested in a variety of GWS players last year we didn't know it was Tyson until the moment it happened. Same can be said for Vince as well. I'm confident that the club are interested and pursuing a variety of players who can improve our squad. I can't see them chasing guys for the sake of it - if there isn't anyone worth getting then I believe the club will simply go the draft and look at getting players into the club who can help take us forward.

IMO we are in a good position draft wise - around the 3-4 mark is perfect.

Trade for established or take Petracca/Brayshaw - both ready made players.

I liked the suggestion of trading 4 to GWS for Tomlinson and 20.

So long as we could land Mitchell with 20, that is a super deal.

Personally I'd gladly past with pick 4 alone for Tom Mitchell.

Longmire has said Mitchell will not be traded and is a required player. Also Petracca will be gone by pick 3.

Yep exactly...we only get Petracca if we don't win next week...and GWS will make sure that doesn't happen. So whoever we get during trading period is going to be a complete suprise.

Liam Jurrah just kicked 14.2 in his first game out of prison. Id consider taking a look at how he is doing.

Love your thinking. Comes out of prison and kicks a bag against nothing opposition and he is the answer to our goal kicking woes. The bloke is damaged goods and the last bloke Roos would look at I suspect.

He was a favourite of mine before his exit from the club but I wouldn't go anywhere near him now.

Tom Rockliff...40 disposals...10 marks.. 10 tackles and a goal...

We know, he is just another in a batch of quality mids that we could have taken and actually promised to take. Shuey and Sloane are others.

Err you do realize the standard between the bush footy and AFL right??

Just because he did it up the bush doesn't mean it will translate into AFL!

He is light years away from AFL footy I cannot ever see him gracing the field again.

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
