Trade Week Day 2Carlton is looking to offload either 
Setanta O'hAilpin or 
Paul Bower during the trade period in order to ensure that it complies with the rules that say clubs must have three draft selections.
Geelong says 
Tom Gillies is a required player and has not considered a request to trade the defender to Hawthorn, which is unable to offer the Cats their first-round draft pick for Gillies. The Hawks have already slated their first pick, no 24, as the selection they wish to use for 
Jack Gunston, the Adelaide forward who has requested a trade to the Hawks.
Port Adelaide is using a third club to seal a "come-home" trade for West Coast midfielder 
Brad Ebert. Ebert's return to Alberton could be achieved by tomorrow afternoon. The Power insists it will not meet West Coast's wish for Port's priority draft pick No. 28. Nor is the Power's first draft pick (No. 6) to be traded. Rather, Port is hopeful of engineering a player from a rival AFL club moving to West Coast, the Eagles releasing Ebert and the Power completing the three-way loop with a draft pick - possibly its No. 33 call in next month's national draft.
The Power today will also move on from contracted Fremantle ruckman 
Jon Griffin by medically testing and interviewing ruckmen who can move to Alberton in uncomplicated trades before Monday's deadline. This will certainly include Hawthorn premiership ruckman 
Brent Renouf and possibly Sydney and former West Coast ruckman 
Mark Seaby.
Port has not tested the supposed interest in the market for midfielder 
Steven Salopek and key defender 
Troy Chaplin.
