Will this cost us the ANB pick or a third rounder?

I reckon a third rounder gets it done - the Lions sound like theyโ€™re being reasonable and wonโ€™t stand in his way (take note GWS)

Elite runner.
A few years in the system.
Emergency in a grand final team.

Ticks a few boxes. ย 
ย 

Thereโ€™s a knock on some of his kicking, that was the big knock on Langdon coming in too.

ย 

ย 

SEN just interviewed their footy manager Danny Daly.

He confirmed that we've shown heavy interest in Sharp and gave the impression that they won't stand in his way unlike another club I can think of.

Fair possibility he'll be with us next year.

ย 

Sure we have Langdon and Windsor already but there's no guarantee they'll be fit for all 23 games. You need depth at every position.

Many bemoaned the loss of Jordon and Harmes, it's about time we recovered some depth.

He's still young but has 4 years in the system so physically he should be ready to play AFL footy, if not, at least he improves Casey.

Victorian too so who knows if being back home might help.


Could see us giving up a combination of our current late picks - 49, 54 and 65 - picks we're not going to use, but gives the Lions points (maybe even with a future 3rd/4th coming back to us for White points next year). They won't be using any of these, just matching Ashcroft and Marshall bids. Probably why they are happy for Sharp and Dev Robertson move as well, they are being replaced instantly.ย ย 

Havenโ€™t seen him play but going off what others have said and his RMC profile it looks like a smart bit of business.ย 
I have been critical of our trading over the past few years and particularly Tim Lamb, but Iโ€™m happy with our moneyball approach to trading this year. Both Sharp and Derksen( if GWS play ball) would fill and need, have upside and cost bugger all leaving our main chips for the draft, given our current situation I think itโ€™s a very good approach.ย 
ย

I reckon this is a good call from us. I think the foundations are there with Sharp for him to make it as a quality wing/half-forward.ย 

A risk worth taking IMO.


Good pick up, he isn't worth anything in terms of trade, Brisbane had 7 plus injuries all year this year and he could only manage 6 games, 3 as sub.

We need these players as depth with the possibility of breaking into the side permanently, but don't think he is walking straight into the team.ย ย 

Smart move to target him. Right age profile and has upside. I could see Sharp being in our best 23 quite easily. With his endurance, he could be used as a forward tagger to lockdown opposition's most damaging half back. For a pick in the 40's, it's good value.


Feels like a low cost Nibbler replacement who can run all day and allow our onballers more bench rotations. Ed Langdon 2.0

Drafted pick 43 in 2020. 4 years in the system for 16 games. Can't be worth much and will come to us as depth. Pick 54 seems about right. 65 for Derksen.ย 

He was pick 43 in the 2020 draft on the brissy website. We lost Jordan and got pick 39 from Sydney for him. So figure it will be around this mark or as articles say a combination of later picks.ย 

ย 

ANB played as an extra mid, massive tank just ran up and back all day.ย  Sounds like this guy is the same.

We should offer 28, 40, 49 to Brisbane for Sharp and pick 20.

It also gives us potential to try Windsor in other roles like half back with some midfield bursts.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
