I don't begrudge Zanker leaving. She has given us great service over many years and has stated she loves the club. Has been a joy to watch.

Plus she ran through Birch and let her know about it in the prelim. Legend.

We should have got more at the trade table for her but that's on the club.

I know we shouldn't tie it together but geez I feel like we'll miss Mick in many aspects including trades and attracting talent

I’m currently walking down Flinders Lane with Edo and Nikita on the way to the B&F and I’m even sadder now 😕

Focus on your next mission is to sweet talk Molly into inking a long term deal. Go get her Ghosty.

Enjoy the night and all the good eggs that are sticking fat with us

I don't like this. Also it annoys me that it went down on a Sunday when I actually had stuff to do rather than during the working week! Not cool.

In my grand tradition of distancing myself from players I love that leave us: Guess which now-former player leads the team in all-time Free Kicks Against? 😆 Will ignore all other stats.

I will say I am slightly impressed that she managed to keep this from @Ghostwriter as we all know Eden doesn't have the best poker face! I'd convinced myself that she was going to go to Geelong and all her "Don't believe the media stuff" was about the location not the reality of the trade! All good though, Ghosty. Enjoy tonight and bring back the goss!

But seriously, I hope we have something up our sleeve to trade up a bit further. Because that deal ain't it.

What a horrible deal for the best young key fwd on the comp. she’ll be the all time W goal kicker soon enough

Why is she leaving?

2 top ten picks should have been the minimum

Clearly Judd and Lily orchestrated this at least 12 months ago

loyal high quality people

There are only 2 AFLW players that can be paid at the Level 1 Salary Band and that is Kate Hore and Tyla Hanks for Melbourne. Eden Zanker will be a Level 1 Salary Band at Fremantle. I went this evening at the Best and Fairest Count.

Old mate is sure putting a lot on the line for a boyfriend - she’s moving across the country, changed clubs and I’m assuming completely disrupted any non-footy stuff she has going on. Talk about going all-in

So leaving for the money. that’s what i figured

i guess all the gun players at North just want to win

Gold Coast now plans to send Pick 14 from the Anne Hatchard deal and a future second to Melbourne for Picks 17 and 27.

Therefore, we will have picks 9 from Fremantle and 14 from Gold Coast for the first round in the AFLW draft.

Correct, North Melbourne just want to win. Eden is leaving for the money. Eden's partner Nikita looked very happy at the Best and Fairest Count this evening.
