Talk around that GWS may be stripped of draft picks over the Whitfield episode!!  Now wouldn't that make a lot of people happy!  A bit of poetic justice one would think.

Back to the draft: they might do a last minute deal to get 2017 early picks.  I don't usually hypothesise about picks but this would be nice:  GWS: a 2016 1st and 2nd round for MFC: 2017 1st round and 2016 #69 which has draft points value and 2017 3rd round.  We could always trade into 2017 later rounds next year.

Why do it: might get us the ruck/forward with their 2016 2nd round and give us a 1st round pick.  Of course we would only do it if we had a target in the 1st round.

Doable?

No - you can only trade a future 1st or package future 2nds+ - you cant trade a future first and third

    Crunch time for Hawthorn. This is really going to come down to the wire.

    But it sure does make fantastic entertainment! Would love nothing more than the O'Meara deal to crumble.

    Will Hoskin Elliott for a future second rounder from Collingwood! Bargain for a former pick 4 (although we all know how former pick 4s don't always deliver...)

    And Aaron Black to Geelong for pick 95 seems like a bargain too. No idea what happened to him at North, he used to show flashes of promise!

    Apparently Hawks need a future second round pick to snare Jager... Could we get our selves another Hawk offloading our 2017 second pick?

    They gave up their 2017 first rounder for pick 19 and 29 didn't they? Horrific.

    For what it's worth, Terry Wallace gave us a B in his review on our trade period.

    I can understand Hawthorn selling the farm for O'Meara (just) but can someone tell me why Geelong is giving up so much for Tuohy?  Is he that good?

    Turn over merchant, has a crack but f me his decision making is MFC circa 2008-2013.

    I would agree with that. If we had kept 29 then I would have been inclined to say A but we have done ok. All things considered

    Who's he given a higher ranking to at this stage of the caper?  Saints?

    They have to obtain a future second round first...

    76 just went to Brisbane didnt it?

    Maybe, i'm not sure, a pick around that mark is what Trade Radio is/was suggesting

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
