It was almost the day where EVERYTHING. WENT. DOWN.
But then it wasn’t.
This one dropped mid-afternoon.

Then it wasn’t.
With only one day left in the trade period, @BGibbsy4 looked like he was finally about to join @adelaide_fc, but the deal has hit a snag. pic.twitter.com/fUf7rzMezq

Now no one knows.
If he does make it there, he does somewhat level out Port’s recruits.
30-disposal, 2-goal games in past 2 seasons:
Bryce Gibbs: 5
Tom Rockliff/Steven Motlop/Jack Watts: 5#AFLTrades— The Phantom (@ThePhantomSC) October 18, 2017
As soon as he gets out of hospital.
Breaking news: Bryce Gibbs has just been admitted to the Royal Adelaide Hospital to have his appendix removed

That was a joke.
In the bargain corner, young Freo mid Harley Balic is now a Demon.
Harley Balic joins Melbourne for pick 66. Adds midfield depth. Had some issues this year but Dees optimistic about his prospects.

And Port utility Aaron Young is a Sun for peanuts.
I think Aaron Young to the @GoldCoastSUNS. He was a great playing at times for Port, could be 2018s Jarryd Lyons.

And Darcy Lang is keen to be a Blue.
Darcy Lang has chosen Carlton. Cats and Suns now discussing draft picks to trigger Ablett deal.
