Lions want two 2nd-rounders from Pies for James Aish. If Pies can't deliver, Roos hope Aish changes mind rather than going into draft

Still expect Pies will get Aish, but believed to be reluctant to pass on two 2016 second-rounders for the Lion at this stage.

At this stage, Pies can't do Aish deal until Treloar deal is done. Expected to get Giants' 2016 second-rounder in that deal.

LOL with SOS.  He had all these draft picks at GWS that are know deemed not good enough for them so he sends them to Blues instead and then accumulates more draft picks for Blues so he can waste them all over again.

As if they won't 19 FFS.  Heard them say they want a sweetener?  What a load of garbage.
Pretenders!!

Got to say I'm not one of the ones advocating doing trades for the sake of  being seen to be doing something.

However am I wrong to find it disconcerting the ease a lot of clubs seem to be taking advantage of the points system certain clubs need for academy players to get themselves a steal? Look at Adelaide with Menzel, Carlton getting those players And pick 8, Melbourne doing a deal to get 3 top 10 picks.....

Have we missed the boat getting so hung up on this yarran deal that we didn't put enough thought into getting creative to bundle up late picks?

Keep hearing the Saints are keen to prise Lachie Weller out of Freo with pick 14. Player is open to it, his club not so much.

That's the problem with the "retired legend coming home to be the messiah" strategy.
Things get through unchecked.
“I find it nearly impossible to make those judgments, but he is certainly up there with the really important ones, he is certainly up there with the Francis Bourkes and the Royce Harts and the Kevin Bartlett and the Kevin Sheedys, there is no doubt about that,” Balme said.

NORTH Melbourne midfielder Ryan Bastinac is set to cross to the Brisbane Lions in a deal that complicates Collingwood's efforts to sign Lions midfielder James Aish.

There had been speculation Bastinac might get to the Lions in a three-way deal that would also have sent Aish to Collingwood, but the Pies will now have to reach a separate deal for the Lions midfielder.

With the NAB AFL Trade Period's deadline of 2pm AEDT on Thursday fast approaching, Collingwood is running out of time to finalise an agreement with the Lions, meaning North retains some hope of convincing Aish that his future lies at Arden Street.

In return for Bastinac, North will climb back into the first round of this year's draft.

North will, in turn, send picks No.38 and 40 to the Lions, which will ensure they still have the draft points they are expected to need to match rival bids for their highly rated academy players Eric Hipwood and Ben Keays.

Giving up pick No.17 will see the Lions lose 1025 points, but picks No.38 and 40 nearly cover that loss with their combined 884 points.


As of Wednesday afternoon, the Treloar trade was expected to drag on into the final day of the trade period, leaving the Pies with a significant task of securing trades for the Giant and Aish before the 2pm deadline.

Officials from Melbourne and GWS, together with player manager Tom Petroro, are seated together in the foyer here at the AFL, which suggests a trade for Giants defender Tom Bugg might be imminent.
