Wondering what GWS will be offering for Bedford now.

Think their picks are now 3,12, 19 and 44.

 

 

Won't be pick 19 sadly. If 31 comes through for Hopper I would be working towards that.

    Bedford and 27 for 19 and 44, then 19 for Grundy?

    Interesting from Brisbane as well. Slight downgrade in points this year which doesn't help them for f/s prospects and now no first rounder this year for Dunkley either.

    Agree. Dogs probably don't like this trade.

    They also have 15 from the Brisbane swap.

    And the Hopper deal, while stalled, is yet to come.

    I’m afraid Cadman is at GWS next year. They need a KPF and they have the picks. Can’t see it any other way unless we get #2.

    May come back to bite me but if so this is a good thing. High bust potential.

    Bowes + 7 (Jhye Clark) plus Bruhn and Henry to the reigning premiers.  Wtf 

    They'll have to give something decent back to GC for 7 + Bowes - probably F1st.

    Then what are they using for Bruhn and Henry? Will take 18 and ?

    I don't think they're getting Henry done, that sounds like it's being driven by Henry more than the Cats and Collingwood want to keep him.

    Few permutations could come out of Bowes to Geelong.

    -Geelongs incoming 7 to freo for 13 and kangas future 2nd

    -Freos 7 and future first to Melbourne for Jackson

     

    Geelong will then have 13, 18 and kangas future 2nd which should facilitate deals for Bruhn and Henry easy enough, even if they throw their future 1st back to Suns. Depends if they want to take 7 to the draft or not I guess.

    Works for me.

    Effectively, WC would split 2 and send Rioli to Port for pick 8 and ports' F1st.

    Freo are in a bit of trouble re: Jackson. I'd take 8 and WC F1st for Jackson and our F2

    I wish there was some news out of Freo. 

    The silence seems like they are doing side deals but ignoring Jackson. 

    Meanwhile their potential pick swap partners are doing other deals, players traded and Freo is playing in its own little pond, by itself!!

    I think they have their points now for Ashcroft without trading the first rounder?

    What am I missing here ?

    WC give up 2 and Rioli for 8 and a potential first rounder next year in the teens.

    How are WC better off ?

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
