I hope they leave it as is, as we're only a season or three off being a destination club ourselves, and we'll then go from prey to predator...

Bring it on!

Assuming we have a choice between Dion and Jaeger, who'd we pick?

Disregarding injuries, Jaeger no question.

I have no idea how they are each expected to recover from their injuries though.

Prestia the more proven - He walks in an probably instantly becomes our best player , plus his injury is seemingly less severe.

That being said, O'Meara has huge potential if he can get his body right.

I am up north today and just got back to Brisvegas.

The first thing I pick up suggests we are looking for Tom Boyd.

Tell me it isn't so.

Good for Jesse, if Boyd is worth a $1M per year then Hoges must get triple that.

Just realised I haven't seen hogans_heroes for a while.

h_h = middymalt? Can it be true?

Sidenote, pick 6 and Howe for either Prestia or O'Meara would be a bloody brilliant result for us.

So with Scott Selwood announcing he wants to go to the Cats, they now have to find a way to get Dangerfield, Henderson, Zac Smith and Selwood to the club.

Two things come to mind - how the hell are they going to do that, and why does everyone want to play for the [censored] handbaggers?

I think they're hoping that Adelaide will just give up on Dangerfield and let him walk.

Keep pushing, Crows.

As for the second part, all I can think is third-party deals.

I look forward to the time when our season is more interesting than the trade and draft periods.

That is more than the Cats will give for Danger.

I would think if true and given the injuries, I would want to give a bit more and get both, or if only Prestia, get their 19 or 22 back to use on someone else.

Howe after all has played 100 games with hardly a miss and pick 6 is pick 6.

O'Meara without question. It's like the kid was engineered in a science lab.

But Prestia is still a gun. You'd be thrilled with either.

Last one it is going to cost Pick 6 and Howe.

GC have formally agreed its just convincing A or B to leave this year.

Prestia is weighing it up more so now more then ever as he feels unwanted that GC would consider it and Jäeger is just concerned with the dollar.

I've said to much. I am done.

This is exactly the sort of deal I'm sure the club were hoping Howe could be involved in. Reckon Watts might be involved in a similar type trade elsewhere if the price is right with next year's first rounder.

I like your thinking here, but I really want at least one of these blokes regardless & would be prepared to pay full admission if absolutely required. Obviously getting both or something extra in return would be even better though.

Love trade time and all the diff scenarios.

It's like having a dream and waking up dissapointed cause it wasnt true!!!

Who wouldn't want Jeremy Howe?

https://youtu.be/1SCNwmHzetU

Shhh... Everyone be quiet about how he turned it over to GWS just outside their 50 immediately after this.

What a mark!! Imagine the attendance boost Gold Coast would get from J Howe in a Suns guernsey. He's worth a few hundred bums on seats.

Also, we will take Prestia.

Omeara is the better footballer but Prestia has loads of hardness which is so critical.

Injuries are the only variable I'd bother being concerned about if it was as easy as choosing.

    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.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
