Saints, just stick to the rebuild and do it properly. Just about the only teams interested would be GWS and the Bulldogs for vastly different reasons.

North would be better trying to get clark from us rather than Lumumba. scott & lumumba will struggle to get along IMO.

Clark would be a better fit to replace the aging soft Petrie.

# trade for P-14ish or Ziebell or a Bastinac.

They are due to do something foolish. It was a long time between drinks for them when the Scotty Watters fiasco hit but things are returning to script as we speak. A Jack Watts for the number one draft pick trade would fit the bill perfectly.

Amy combo of Shiel, Jaksch and O'Rourke might get it done. Whately seems to think it's a Monty theyre going for Petracca.

The PSD is now almost as dead as the priority pick. I don't think there will be many selections other than some late delistings that might be around.

Even then, they are effectively delisted FA.

It's only for a player holding out who is not yet eligible for FA.

AFL trade radio starts tomorrow and we could learn more about some of these draft rumours judging by the list of invitees:-

• Paul Connors (manager of Ryder, Beams, Dangerfield)

• Ben Niall (manager of Lumumba)

• Josh Mahoney (Melbourne) and

• Dean Warren (Brisbane Lions)

Every draft pick is a potential Cale Morton or Lucas Cook.

Trade Radio has to be a Hutchy production.

To be fair you have to give some credit to the presenters for waffling incessantly about not much of substance!

2014 AFL Offseason @theafloffseason 1h

Damien Barrett has reported that Collingwood's Alex Fasolo has requested a trade out of the club, despite signing... http://fb.me/6Rmn0TyVO

Reckon we should go after him.

I was under the impression that once a contract is signed you can't leave over the following trading period. Maybe it can happen if the player wants it, but it seems strange to do so after signing an extension.

Someone here will know for sure but I've a feeling that that rule might have been ditched - stand corrected of course.

I can see a situation in the future where players will sign longer contracts and the clubs will want them to sign longer contracts ... so as to increase that players value in a future trade. We're not talking about C & D grade players but players who have currency.

It happens a lot in soccer where it's a "virtual" free market despite contracts being in place. Over time, a conclusion has been reached that a players value decreases if his contract is running out - the reverse applies if a player is tied up for 4 or 5 years.

Of course, our currency is draft picks and other tradeable players rather than transfer fees but in some ways, it amounts to the same thing. In a nutshell, in the future, a player signing a long(ish) term deal may not necessarily mean that that player is tied to a club like he might have been in the past.

Whateley thinks that St Kilda or GWS are going for Petracca? Or both?

GWS - he said they will be going hard to get pick 1 to tie up Petracca, could involve Saints trading down to 4.

Anyone who can put up with listening to Trade Radio has my utmost respect.

is it still Terry Wallace and Damian Barrett doing it?

Couldn't think of anything worse than to listen to those two muppets

Has Barrett apologized about Dom Tyson yet? Wait what a silly question, of course he hasn't

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    TRAINING: Thursday 9th January 2025

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
