4, 19 and 2 players is a great deal for griff.

Why do you draft interstaters if they just wanna go home all the time?

Yep crazy stuff. 2 years ago I could understand holding out for better but he's 29 next year with back issues.

Apparently Motlop wants out from Geelong.

Apparently Motlop wants out from Geelong.

Now he is a player I would think would add the X factor we need.

Straight swap for Hampson (copyright Chucky17, registered October 2014)!

Where'd you hear that one?

GWS defender Sam Frost could join Melbourne in pre-season draft. Frost - to help cover Frawley - for nothing and pick 3 would be a big Dees win.

Jack Crisp could be the circuit breaker to help the Lions secure Dayne Beams reports The Age.

Crisp has told Brisbane officials he would be happy to move back to Victoria if a trade can be brokered, otherwise he would accept a new two-year deal the Lions have tabled for him.

Crisp has attracted interest not form Collingwood, but from Essendon who are keen to secure his services. The Bulldogs have also shown interest.

A trade between the Lions and Bombers, likely for a draft selection, would allow the Lions to re-enter a complex six-club trade they had initially declined to get the deal processed.

It would involve the following:

GEELONG: In - Mitch Clark, pick 21; Out - Travis Varcoe, Allen Christensen
COLLINGWOOD: In - Levi Greenwood, Travis Varcoe, Pick 5, Ess pick; Out - Dayne Beams, Heritier Lumumba
NORTH MELBOURNE: In - Pick 25; Out - Levi Greenwood
MELBOURNE: In - Heritier Lumumba; Out - Mitch Clark
BRISBANE: In - Dayne Beams, Allen Christensen; Out - Pick 5, 21, 25, Crisp
ESSENDON: In: Crisp; Out - Ess pick

Brisbane's interest in Carlton Mitch Robinson has cooled since he initially met Lions recruiting manager Peter Schwab.

From today's West Australian ...

Fremantle want to offload one of their spare rucks for an upgrade of their first round pick (currently pick 13).

Contracted ruckmen Jon Griffin and Jack Hannath are viewed as potential trade options.

Adelaide and Richmond, who hold picks 10 and 12 respectively, are both lacking depth in their ruck stocks.

there's pick 12 being mentioned again. I think we are now in prime position to shop it around for a lower pick. whilst its so popular, lets offer it to Melbourne straight swap for their pick 3.

Essendon won't make Ryder a free agent. Was discussed today, but decided against it. Essendon and Port Adelaide remains at a stalemate.

Neither Ryan Griffen or Adam Cooney will be a Bulldog next year. Griffen will be a Giant, Cooney will either be a Kangaroo or a Bomber.

Despite no deal being done by Collingwood's imposed Friday deadline, I still firmly believe Dayne Beams will be at the Lions next year.

Nothing new on our front ...

RICHMOND
The Tigers appear to have lost their battle to convince Jason Winderlich to come out of retirement and join the club as a free agent. They looked set to take their early picks to the draft but they have opened discussions late in the week with Melbourne in a deal to exchange their No.12 pick for Jack Trengove and Melbourne's No.23 pick.

Ch 7 news last night said Collingwood and Brisbane have all but agreed to a trade for Dayne Beams.

Beams to Brisbane.

Picks 5, 25 and Jack Crisp to Collingwood.

The Herald Sun is reporting that Ryan Shoenmakers is 'shattered' that Hawthorn have shopped him around over the weekend.

List Manager Graham Wright was adamant last week the 23 year old key defender was staying put, so too was Shoenmakers who was willing to fight for his spot, but the acquisition of Jono O'Rourke has changed Hawthorn's mind.

Fremantle and Adelaide have signalled their interest over the weekend, with the Crows tabling pick 31 and the Dockers tabling pick 34.

Adelaide is interested in securing respected Hawthorn defender Kyle Cheney as it looks to bolster its defensive depth.

Adelaide and Essendon remain open to securing a ruckman during the trade period with Jonathan Giles and Luke Lowden seeking opportunities.

Three clubs have seriously inquired about obtaining St Kilda's pick 1 which is up for trade.

Greater Western Sydney and Western Bulldogs are two of the three suitors actively looking to trade up.

The Bulldogs seem to be in the box seat, as its expected that they'll receive strong draft picks for the loss of captain, Ryan Griffen who nominated GWS as his destination during the trade period.

St Kilda are looking to obtain three first-round selections for the second year in a row since drafting Luke Dunstan, Blake Acres and Jack Billings last year.

Carlton look set to give up Pick 7 for Kristian Jaksch and pick 19. Mark Whiley could also become part of the deal.

Port might have to give up their first and second round picks to Essendon for Paddy Ryder.

Just about take this to the bank, Travis Varcoe will be in the black and white next season.

The Eagles have also spoken to Carlton’s Kane Lucas about a possible return home to WA.
