I am amazed that people talk about how high or low or what draft picks you give to trade or get players in, one just have a look how Geelong get it down if they want a player they just do it, the trade closes Wednesday night and if they want Grundy they will do a deal and where that sits, is up to the club.

You're dreaming. 

Is the value so far off? Geelong can’t make the trade happen without securing a future second rounder to appease Gold Coast or get approval from the afl like port tried to. Might as well attempt to get involved, or watch someone else do it and wish we did.

Are we waiting for the weid deal to get done for this to happen, seems like we've talking about grundy for a while for nothing to happen yet. Anyone know if there is anything else holding up the deal?

Geelong aren't giving up pick 7 for pick 13 and steak knives. They'd only give up pick 7 for 2 1st round picks in the teens.

I wonder if we would do a similar deal, to move up the draft

After they realise nobody will give them that, our offer would* still be there. They don’t even have pick 7 unless they get the future second rounder Gold Coast want

Collingwood are threatening to hang on to Brodie Grundy after Melbourne refused a proposal to swap first round picks as part of the deal for the ruckman, which came on a busy day of trades which saw the Demons finally complete a three-club deal to get Luke Jackson to Fremantle.

Melbourne have refused to offer more than pick 27 for the two-time All-Australian ruckman, who is contracted to Collingwood for five more years on big money. Collingwood have offered to pay some of Grundy’s contract at Melbourne.

Collingwood had said at the outset of trade talks they wanted a draft pick inside 25 for Grundy. In early trades Melbourne secured pick 27, a selection Collingwood said is insufficient on its own to do the Grundy deal.

On Monday Melbourne received pick 13 as part of the exchange that saw Jackson finally land at Fremantle. Collingwood have proposed trading Grundy and pick 16 to Melbourne for the Demons’ picks 13 and 27. Melbourne has rejected this.

Collingwood could alternatively seek to revise down slightly the amount of money they contribute to Grundy’s salary in exchange for accepting the slightly later pick. The club has also said they are prepared to keep the ruckman and abandon the trade.

Beautiful. I hope they keep Grundy.

Let's see who blinks first. Tim Lamb is 0-2 on his trade bluster to date (Jackson and Bedford).

This is bluster for their fans. Just as Lamb coming out and saying we wanted two first round picks for Jackson.

It's optics.

    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
