Wouldn't trade Floss myself.

Graham absolutely.

Ross no, despite mention of Freo.

I wouldn't be trading either of them at the moment, both coming off down seasons is precisely when you don't trade them. Graham is coming off two interrupted preseasons, and Vlastuin was below par for the first 8 weeks at least. We'd be trading at the bottom of their value. It's a typical supporter thing to try to trade blokes after poor seasons and then expect other clubs to cough up great picks. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

Didn't port just cough up pick 25-28 for soldo.

People will pay anything. I personally would take 40 for Graham he is that poor now. He is a list clogger these days and his slow play is a thing of the past

Supertalls like Soldo often get more then they appear to be worth - that's just good trading by us, to (finally) trade him at the peak of his value. Just proves my point more.

Graham & Ralphshyte should've been first two traded. Should've sent Half-season Hammy Prestia back to Dimma Coast too- oh well guess we need enough blokes that we can pee off at the end of next year when we'll have a decent draft hand and some spare cash for free agency....... :shh

A trade taking Elijah Hollands from Gold Coast to Carlton is done.

Blues to send a F3 and Pick 26 to the Suns for Hollands, Pick 28 and a F4. Should go through shortly, with Elijah to join his younger brother Ollie at Ikon Park.

The Suns pretty much just gave Hollands away to Carlton after paying pick 7 for him in the 2020 draft.

61 would have been better so we could use 41&49 to move up the order

Good and fair result, seeing Hawthorn was asking for pick 25

Got to love the clueless media. Apparently Chol is coming back to us with a late pick :wallywink lol.


Mabior Chol joins his third AFL club, with pick 62 also coming to Richmond.

A future second round pick goes to Gold Coast in return.

Two late trades just before the trade period closed.


Massimo D'Ambrosio has been traded to Hawthorn.
Essendon receives Pick 61 and a future fourth rounder.

DONE DEAL! Xavier Duursma and Brandon Zerk-Thatcher swap

Essendon have given in and added on a future 4th-round pick to go along with Brandon Zerk-Thatcher to get a deal done for Xavier Duursma from Port Adelaide

Zerk-Thatcher, pick 73 and two future fourth round picks headed to the Power.

It’s all about next year. New coach, new game style and hopefully a fresh energy for the club. The perfect way to enter a trade period.
“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.
