I assume it's just posturing but I wonder if there is a world they don't listen to offers on Merrett

It's been stated that they may not get any Mihocek compo given his age and the short-term contract he has with Melbourne So anything we give them in a trade is an upgrade on nothing

Judd is NOT the goat

We would trade a 3rd or 4th rounder for Miochek, to retain a 2nd rounder received in compensation for SparGod Nothing to do with Clarry

Clazz playing for Trac's dream club while Petracca plays for the Suns would be very very funny

Was more on a George Foreman Grlj wavelength but that works too

Sam Grlj (pronounced Grill, or George to his mates) zigs, zags, dances and prances his way to yet another Demonland draft thread Ironically enough Draft Central compares him to our own Caleb Windsor: A bolt from the blue in more ways than one, Grlj (pronounced ‘grill’) was cooking early in the year. The Oakleigh Chargers speedster has a bit of Caleb Windsor about him in the way he takes ground so aggressively, tucking the ball under his arm and gaining separation from the chasing pack with ease. He is incredibly difficult to contain, often dancing around opponents or buying just enough time to find a teammate, but also tearing off into space with his potent turn of foot. Grlj cut his teeth as a half-back and outside runner last year but has transitioned beautifully into the midfield, bringing his brand of footy to the fore each week. Line-breaking players can sometimes lack composure but he has showcased an ability to hit targets on the move and not blaze away at all costs. He reverted back to his role across half-back for Vic Metro and remains in the picture as a top 15 talent after his emphatic return to action with Oakleigh. Some clubs may pick him early on a needs basis.

A speedster and rebounding defender with traits built for the moddun-game™ While his dazzling speed and wicked foot skills catch the eye, Taylor is touted as a defence first half-back who wins the ball back before flicking the switch into attack mode. He isn’t afraid to venture high up the ground, taking metres and hitting targets on his favoured left side. Taylor can go short and sharp or long and direct, proving a weapon in transition. He averaged 21 disposals across 17 games this season to sit firmly in first round contention.

There was a rumour Port were targeting him

You're just making stuff up here lol

Pickett and Oliver were left field picks...and elite players!

I reckon internally the view would be to take another 4 or 5 first round picks to the draft across 2025/6 prior to Tassie messing it up I believe we will end up with three first round picks this year while retaining our natural 2026 selection

Saints going chips in for a shot at Wildcard round

9 & 10? 10 & 11? something around those lines

Anything doing on Tsatas?

I've got a bridge to sell you

Lamb's comments read more as justification for trading away this years pick given how compromised it is due to the academy kids and the like (which is a fair comment), rather than him necessarily potting the quality of it Every draft is a strong draft if you pick right, every draft is a weak one if you pick wrong 🧘‍♂️ Important to remember we traded IN to the 2020 draft

Two first round picks (one being pick 7) would be a fantastic result for a 30 year old, anyone disappointed with that needs to take the red and blue goggles off

Reckon anyone who thinks the Suns would release Humphrey has rox in their heads (happy to be proven wrong) The trade will get done with picks like every other trade

Yep Reckon the conversations would be something like GWS take the full $, we receive a token late pick GWS pay 75%, we receive a 2nd rounder GWS pay 50%, we receive their first pick or something to that effect I posted previously that Giants would be trading for $3.5m over 5 years rather than for Oliver

Very astute comment by Faux Phoenix. I reckon there's every chance we end up with the Giants first pick which is why we've gone so hard with the salary component
