Today has been hard, as if anyone is working. I've been scrolling up and down this thread and other trade ones all day.

Can some of you at least make up some trade rumours, give the people something to read etc?

I have a relative who's friend of a friend that is high up in the Red Bull fraternity, it appears that CP5 is still exploring a trade to the pies or carlscum, the deal appears to be Carlton will deal Walsh and Owies plus a F1 for CP5 with the pies trying desperate to top them with a deal including the bloke who retired Gus as well as De Goey and some pick swaps, the bloke who clocked Gus said he owes the Dees, so is willing to come, they are still trying to find the other bloke in L.A. when I get further mail from my sisters girl friend's boy friend, I will post more. Stay tuned as Norf has not given up on Tracc just yet, with the saints still sniffing and Dawks and Bumbers willing onlookers.

 Hunter, Brayshaw, BBB, Schache, Turner, ANB and I dare say Tomlinson all gone. 

We are going to need to cover 7 spots,  which is alot.

3 Draft kids, 2 Trade (Derksen, and hopefully Peatling), 1 rookie maybe 2, but possibly leaving 1 spot for a SSP

You mean Smith not Turner.

Brayshaws spot went to Kentfield.

It's not a lot of spots at all.

Here's the list changes from last year:
https://www.afl.com.au/news/1051691/ins-and-outs-every-clubs-full-list-changes-ahead-of-2024

Number of players off per team:

Adelaide 8
Brisbane 8
Carlton 7
Collingwood 8
Essendon 11
Fremantle 6
Geelong 8
Gold Coast 9
GWS 5
Hawthorn 10
Melbourne 8
North 13
Port 10
Richmond 7
St.Kilda 9
Sydney 10
West Coast 9
The Dogs 9

Range = 5-13, Mean = 8.6, Median = 8.5, Mode = 8

Seven is less than each of the mean, mode and median from last year.  Unsure why posters persist in suggesting 7 is "a lot".

We'll probably make at least 3 trades/FAs/DFAs. 3 NDs and 1 RD which easily covers 7 slots.  If anything I think it's not enough.

This Bukkake bloke would fit in well at the Dees. We've got plenty of blokes who spray it everywhere.

Red Bull have delisted Daniel Ricciardo possibly to clear cap space for Petracca?

Someone needs to take McAdam under their wing because he promised the world and by all accounts should be able to deliver, but the guy is just never quite right.  I believe he has lots of potential just need to work harder and make sure he's fully fit...I wonder what the issue is.

Faris -White was a Category B rookie so not a general list spot.

I know this might not be a popular post, but with ANB gone we need a player who can run and do the team first things. Finn Maginess is an elite runner and someone we might get cheap.....

Also means Clarry has 1 less tagger out there.

Get the guy fit or get rid of him, cost us a decent amount that guy he needs to shape up or ship out sick of passengers.

Someone at another club would be good.

He is lazy and doesn't put in the effort.  I was on this when we were first linked to him, has been the word out of the crows for a while.

Can't believe we gave up anything for him let alone a second rounder, 53 games(no major injuries either, mainly soft tissue) in 5 years with his talent, says it all.

Here's to hoping something clicks, but I'm not holding my breath!

Don't mind it, we also need 1 or 2 players of his ilk that might not quite be in the team but if we have an injury can fill the hole.

We can't just get kids and superstars like most people think.

Depending where you look McCrae wants to come to the Dees. Petracca can then play forward which would be good for us. We do need to draft two young good midfielders and probably have someone else from our existing who could that role. Preferably not Kossie.

What was funny on a website that getting Dersken ( no senior games ) and a Tom Campbell was a mini team rebuild.

A year ago we all felt we were one injury-free Melksham away from winning a flag, so it made sense to just do the deal for a pick that wouldn't make much of a difference the following year if taken to the draft. Easy to say these things now with hindsight.

    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
