Long is a gun. Would be a real handy pickup

Corey Maynard is a very average AFL footballer but I guess he would be considered our 'insurance' inside mid who we can bring in if a few of our star mids go down

Haven't seen that? Definitely Pittard

Worst case scenario is he says he wants to stay for now, and that he’ll re-evaluate his long term future in 12 months when he’s OOC

I really hope we can still get May..

GC won’t take our pick next year for May. No way they accept it. They will just keep him and get the early compensation pick for losing him as a FA

Thought a Hogan decision was coming tonight?

They got pick 7 in 2015 and 7 in 2016. Collingwood got pick 28 back too

Is there any merit to the rumour of Hogan for pick 6 and 14? Or just hypothetical

Apparently clubs want future 1st rounders rather than current firsts because this years draft really falls away after pick 6 or 7. Via Paul Connors

Can we not become ‘those types’ of fans

Matthew Lloyd just said on the Trade Table that it's a shoe-in that he won't be at the Dees next year, with Gold Coast leading the race for him ahead of Hawks, Bombers, Blues

The reality is, a top 10 pick and Steven May as a result of dealing Hogan is absolutely the return we should be receiving. I'd give 1 or 2 picks in the second round to make it happen too

Tom Browne is a [censored] but genuinely on the money Broke that Gaff was staying about 2 days before it became official

Wants to be at Freo, and as a result makes him Freo's #1 target. Freo's interest in Hogan is decreasing but still there and could force us to accept a worse deal

Lobb decision doesn't bode particularly well for us

Probably stating the obvious here but if we can't get his long term commitment now then I'd be more than happy to trade him, granted we get a nice return package. No need for a Hogan-WA fiasco throughout the entire 2019

apparently may be involved in the Kolodjashnij deal to Gold Coast

If we don’t get 2x first rounders in 2018 I think we have the right to feel quite hard done by

Given Freo may exchange pick 4 and 22 (via Neale Trade) for 9 and 10 from Port, I think I'd be pretty happy to get 2 out of picks 5/9/10 for Jesse Push for 5 and 9, wouldn't lose sleep if it was 9 and 10 though. Then 10 and 43 for May and Kolodjashnij

KK will be playing wing for us, not HBF

You can’t trade someone without player consent. So if he wants to go to Melbourne, they can’t trade him to Collingwood unless he agrees. They can only hold him at Gold Coast

So reiterating what I said, Collingwood has no relevance if May doesn’t nominate them

Not really true at all. If May nominated us then Collingwood is irrelevant

Could we get May while keeping Hogan?
