Bear with us on this. Today was nuts.

After all the posturing, it seems the Suns somewhat relented.
Hawks got O’Meara deal for pick 10 and swapped 48, 66 and 70 for Blues’ 2nd round in 2017. No Hawks player involved. @AFL

Official Jaeger O’Meara trade:
Hawks receive O’Meara.
Suns receive picks 10 and future second round pick.Previous offer was picks 10 + 48.

O’Meara, Mitchell, Vickery in. But at what cost?
Hawthorn’s first pick in the draft will be pick 88. The pick they got for Sam Mitchell#NABTradeRadio

Deledio is out the door at Richmond, and will be a Giant in 2017.
Every contender lost men..
WB Hamling
Syd TMitchell
Gee Caddy, Bartel, Enright
Haw Mitchell, Lewis
Ade LyonsExcept GWS. Deledio in. Scary

Geelong got Tuohy from Carlton, but lost Smedts in return.
.@GeelongCats utility Billie Smedts will head to @CarltonFC as part of the Zac Tuohy deal. Future first round also heading to the Blues.

Travis Cloke got to the Doggies.
Dogs didnt want to give anything better than pick No. 71 for Cloke. Stuck to their guns. No. 76 does the deal in the end. Peanuts.

The one that was left on the table was Bryce Gibbs.

It’s bad news for the Crows’ midfield, with Jarryd Lyons off to the Suns.
Can’t believe Crows couldn’t get the Gibbs deal done. With Lyons traded to GC, Adel not only failed to strengthen midfield but weakened it.

Marley Williams got traded to North for Pick 105.
Marley Williams is worth a lot more than pick 105.
— Sam McClure (@sam_mcclure) October 20, 2016
Not to be outdone, Rhys Palmer went to the Blues… for PICK 135!
Rhys Palmer for pick 135 smashes the record for highest draft pick used in a trade. Last pick used in last year’s draft was 72.#AFLTrades

SOS is quickly turning Carlton into Diet GWS.
Pickett gets to @CarltonFC. Geelong’s future first round (part of Tuohy deal) involved in a deal that sees Marchbank a Blue also @traderadio

Nine ex-GWS players now on Carlton’s list. Giants-lite
Northern Blues may join the NEAFL— Michael Gleeson (@mickgleeson) October 20, 2016
Here’s everything else that went down (leave me alone, there were a lot).
Dekka Hine says club “really pleased” to pick off No.4 pick Will Hoskin-Elliott for a future second. Love his performances on the MCG.

Collingwood lands massive coup – Lynden Dunn at a song.
— Jock Reynolds (@jock_reynolds) October 20, 2016
North has the bargain of trade period so far in Hrovat. Almost a free hit …
— Mark Stevens (@Stevo7AFL) October 19, 2016
Eagles get their man. Nathan Vardy goes to Perth for pick 72. Great get. Ideal for the ruck-forward gap.
— Travis King (@TravisKing) October 20, 2016
Forget the picks, Collingwood traded Jarrod Witts to Gold Coast for 485 draft points. In better shape for father-sons Daicos and Brown.
— Sam Landsberger (@SamLandsberger) October 19, 2016
James Stewart to Essendon for pick 77.@FOXFootyLive

Shane Kersten a Docker for pick 63. Good deal for Freo.
— Travis King (@TravisKing) October 19, 2016
Koby Stevens officially joining @stkildafc. 50 for 61 and swap of 4th and 5th next year @traderadio
— Mitch Cleary (@cleary_mitch) October 20, 2016
Former Aus under 19 cricket captain Pat McKenna joins the Demons from GWS.
Plenty of picks involved too.@FOXFootyLive

Hope Aaron Black can resurrect his career at Geelong. Still an exciting talent if he can rediscover his best
