    Any thoughts on Brisbane giving pick 27 to St Kilda for picks 32 and 45 so St Kilda can give 27 to WB to get the Macrae deal done?

    Could consider a 3 way trade. Harry Sharp to Melbourne, pick 49 to GWS, and Brisbane gets picks 53 and 56. That an extra 427 points.

    There is too much speculation about a Joe replacement. I think what is needed is a role replacement. If the need for any given opposition is a pinch hit ruck/forward, then Day or Fort might be the option. If the team is grooming Henry Smith as a forward, then he gets an opportunity. If Lloyd...

    Would it be possible for Melbourne to give up picks 49, 54, and 65 for Harry Sharp and pick 60? It would gain 441 more points for the F/S and academy kids.

    I think the creativity may be in the form of a couple of project talls, either rucks or key positions. Pretty flushed with mids.

    That would be a great pick swap. Hope it’s possible.

    Riccardo would be high on the wish list, but the reality is that there is no room to offer to make a trade for him. Brisbane currently have about 1000 point. If Levi was to go at pick 2 and Sam Marshall at 12, with the 20% discount, that’s still about 3000 points needed. Given that Brisbane are...

    It would be asking him a lot to relocate. He has a young family and is settled on a sixty hectare property with horses and cattle. It would be surprising if Brisbane got any interest from him. Worth a try, but I’m sure he would decline.

    I would also like Smith to get a fair bit of match time next year, but the expectations on him and Morris need to be considered. They are both a couple of years off being the guns Brisbane need. In the mean time there is a need for a big body tall, who can pinch hit in the ruck, to back up for a...

    Essendon are interested in Prior. Direct swap for Wright. Brisbane don’t want to lose any points in a trade deal.

    Brisbane can’t replace Joe, they can only introduce another forward who will play a role, and support the existing forwards. I agree that Joe would draw a big defender each week. Morris needs to be protected so he draws the 3rd tall defender. I can’t see the sense in chasing a big forward that...

    What is Dev realistically worth as a trade? Points are needed for Levi ans Sam Marshall. Is Dev worth a 2nd round pick to a club that needs a big body with finals experience in their midfield?

    In terms of trades, everyone will have an opinion, with some being hard to read. This will probably be one because it's hard to write also. Bailey. How much upside has he got left? I'm concerned that he has stalled with his progress. Has he maximised his potential? Sure he has some great...

    Essendon are too difficult to negotiate with. They would ask way too much for him. Besides that, I doubt if he would be available.

    Would Jack Lukosius be worth considering? He been encourage to look around by Gold Coast. High draft pick in his year, 24 years old, 195 cm, genuine swing man that Brisbane doesn’t really have, and good recent history of accurate goal kicking. Although he is from S.A., I bet he owns a house in...

    If Petracca is gettable, what would a deal cost? I assume two first round picks plus change at least. Or a first round, a future first round, and a player. Its hard to see how it could be achievable, but is worth pursuing if he has any interest in Brisbane. It appears he genuinely wants out, but...

    Kai Lohmann has been great in most games this year. By far the most improved in the team. I was at Marvel on Sunday and was impressed with his pressure, and contested possession work. I think he still think he has another gear or two to go in the next couple of season. Potentially a future elite...

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion Round 20, Pineapple Grapple.

    I think it’s a certainty that the Suns will play Casboult to exploit the lack of height of the Brisbane defence. I can see this being a bit of a shoot out. Brisbane still have the capability in their forward line to kick a big score against on ordinary Suns defence.

    Unofficial Preview Changes/discussion Round 20, Pineapple Grapple.

    I agree. He’s got the size and has played defensive roles on mids in the past. Just needs to utilise his height to play a bit taller. He could be a direct swap in position for Wilmot, who would then play wing.

    Mid season draft is always hit or miss. These three look ok and worth a chance. McLachlan could get a run in the misfiring forward line this year. I’m surprised they didn’t use their 4th pick for either Hately or Casey Voss. Both more than good insurance. Plenty of quality mid sizes coming...

    Totally agree. His suspension was absolutely warranted. The thought is inconsiderate at this time, but if the club can offer an opportunity for recovery and redemption, as well as ongoing public awareness of the issues, he could assist with a short term rebuild for the second half of the year...

    Replacing Kiddy for 2024

    Kiddy out. Casey Voss in via the Mid Season Draft on a 6 month contract with a performance based option for an extension. Could be a nice feel good story the club needs.

    The injuries have certainly challenged the Premiership window Brisbane was in. Difficult times require difficult decisions. Is the club brave enough and mercenary enough to consider Tarryn Thomas in the Mid Season Draft on a 6 month contract to replace Linc. He is free to play after 22nd July...

    Well, wasn't that pathetic. Arrogant, lazy, no respect for their team mates, members and fans. No respect especially the forwards. The forward delivery is what you would see at junior suburban levels. Plugger or Ablett Snr would struggle to get a goal in that forward line with such rubbish...

    Big chance on Thursday. Need a 4 quarter effort. No drop off this week. Dunkley tags Petracca, Berry (playing for his caree either at Brisbane or elsewhere) negates Oliver, and Lachie goes head to head with Viney. Joe goes for a big speccie early and gets the knee right into May, and Charlie get...
