West coast ruled out using pick 2 straight for LJ. No way they give up pick 2 and 20 lol.

Knowing nothing about Trade Radio,  is the above a runour, likely deal, or Adam Cooney (as usual) being silly?

Random hypothetical that has no basis in reality.

13 + F1st + North's F2nd for Jackson +  our F2nd + Brisbane's F2nd (from GWS for Toby). That would be similar to the Jeremy Cameron trade.

Edit: that can't happen because I got the GWS - Brisbane swap around the wrong way. But maybe we can get something for Toby to make this work, e.g. Richmond's 31 via the Hopper trade.

All spit-balling. It is surprising how much of that they are still doing now that the period has started.

Geelong now in the box seat for Bowes, so that didn't age well...Essendon CEOs have been known to last longer than that!

But I thought it was MFC deciding where he goes depending on the best trade?

Except that Bowes is going to Geelong.

Pies would love to get their hands on 7, as part of the Henry deal, but may settle for 18, now that Cats have 7. Other picks could be involved.

Half the present team at Hawthorn doesn't want to play with them anyway.

West Coast are making far too many moves and gestures to be a team that doesn't believe they're a legitimate trade option for Luke Jackson.

GWS and Sydney but not good ones. North might end up with pick 8 and could trade 8 and their future first but I can’t imagine they’d be too keen.

Have to imagine the Eagles would want to use a top 10 pick. So they’d need to find a team with 2 of them to give us one. 

Gold Coast should have 5 and 7 but they’re Gold Coast!

Agreed.

Meanwhile Freo are weakening their draft hand wanting to trade in 2 GCS players.

Unless they can somehow swap F1st round picks (and others to get the right balance) as part of the trade their chances of getting a deal done for LJ are slipping.

So we get pick 13 and GCS F1st. 

It works in theory but can't see them doing that.

I could see a situation where that pick 2 goes to the Cats for pick 7, 18 and potentially a swap of picks. 

The Eagles are more keen on picks in the teens due to W.A talent there and would be rapt if they could get in Jackson for 7 and 20 and keep pick 18 in the first round i reckon

They could swap with GWS for 12 and 15 +/- equalisers.   Use 15 and give us 12 and their own F1st!!

The problem is that the Cats need to find two first round picks for Henry and Bruhn so pick 2 doesn't help them do those trades.  Of course they could offer it to GWS and get 12 and 15/19 back.

So many permutations!

I wish next Wednesday would come round quickly!!

I hate the Cats with a passion.  If we lose Jacko and get pick 18 (and a future whatever) while they upgrade to pick 2 (essentially because they can pay Bowes salary) I will spew 🤮

    TRAINING: Wednesday 13th November 2024

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
