We definitely still need an A grade half back to wax and wane with Bowey for the next decade, so wouldn’t be against Lindsay at all Would also help Rivers and Xavier develop into full time mids

I’m always suss on taking key forwards early in the first round, unless they’re a clear cut above like a Cadman or Walter in recent years Hopefully we continue to add to our mid, half back and small forward stocks ahead of guys like Marsh and Schubert

Same, but just concerned our picks are going to fall just outside the real top end of this draft and we might be left with a couple of those players I agree with AB10 though, we hopefully should be able to grab two of Lindsay, Grij and Dovaston which would be a great result

Do we take a Sharp or Greeves type if they fall to us? I know we’ve all been crying out for more outside midfielders, but we probably don’t have that young developing inside bull other than Langford (of course that depends how much you see Windsor, Kolt and Lindsay developing in that mould)

Jeez I hope so But also appreciate Paul’s willingness to be open and communicative with members

A future first makes this a completely different deal and a win for us Disappointed we won’t be getting Humphrey but this is the next best thing, and you’d have to be delusional to think otherwise

What the [censored]? There better be a future first rounder coming back or this makes no sense

Between who? Us and Trac, or us and Suns?

Not sure why we can’t offer 28 instead of 24? Or why we’re even sending a pick back at all? Resigned to only getting picks for Trac, but we shouldn’t be doing the Suns a favour in regards to the academy players

@Dannyz did you ever get any more intel about our talks with the Suns today? Seemed to be radio silence from the media

Mate the supporters would be [censored] themselves too 🤣 We wouldn’t be boring that’s for sure!

If you didn’t hear this at a BBQ I don’t believe you

Miss you Pig 🫡

Happy about this

Can anyone source where the Sun’s interest in De Goey has come from? Haven’t seen anything reported from the usual journos (apologies if I’ve missed it)

He’s clearly a cultural problem and needs to be traded to us for a future third round pick (with the Suns paying half his salary)

Is his disposal as bad as people say? Love his run and dash but we’re trying to get rid of our poor kicks, not bring more in

Sounds like he was equivocal in his answers but it won’t do the club any good if we’re already meeting with GC today to discuss picks Again, Humphrey and his manager needed to go much harder if they wanted this to get done this trade period It sucks because I can absolutely see him requesting a trade next year when we’re not in the box seat

Agree I don’t doubt Demon Forever’s and Ghosty’s info but unless Humphrey is willing to agitate enough over the next two days a trade won’t happen Suns know that push comes to shove we’ll trade picks for Trac, so we don’t have any leverage if Humphrey himself isn’t willing to blow it up

To be fair it’s pretty clear that McVee was saying one thing to the club/supporters than he was to his manager/other clubs Ghosty’s (and Dannyz’s) mail about him was still from a legitimate source, even if we all know you can never be 100% certain

lol good to confirm But in all seriousness, was this reliable source someone who could categorically confirm it happened? There’s been a rumour going around today and - without being disrespectful to the person who posted it - they don’t have the track record and (known) connections you do to the club

Went to a BBQ today did you Ghosty?

I’m once again posting to say it’s over I love a good leak as much as the next person - and in fact I don’t doubt the info that’s been provided by Demon Forever - but this late in the game there’s no way someone like Twomey isn’t across it if Humphrey has changed managers/will request a trade
