2024/2025 Gold Coast Draft & Trade Periods

[Jirik13]

If Carlton want pick 13 I would have in the back of my mind how they screwed us on Jack Martin trade at the time. It wouldn't stop me trading pick 13 to them but it wouldn't come cheap. Trade period comes in roundabouts and now it has swung our way. They pay premium.Same as if Pies want 13 to assist in securing an A grade talent n Houston, again it should be in our favour not theirs. Let silly silly season.

Yeah, we should get significant overs.

As for Magpies, without pick 13 they are screwed to get Houston. Also they already got Perryman as Noble replacement.

Levi has retired it was just announced.
Prob was told he wasn't gonna get a contract.
Extended his career longer than I thought.

They needed the spot for Dusty

They needed the spot for Dusty

Yeah, on rookie list

Thats a lot of mature experience gone (Levi+ Day) in the key forward stocks, so only have himmelberg as a mature body left, given King and the others are quite young.

True, but Levi wasn’t up to it any longer and Day never was. May be harsh as he is a lovely young man but IMO a below average footballer that managed to get 14 years on an AFL list

King turns 25 next year, a lot rests on him granted, but he's old enough.

He is, but not much below him if there is injuries.

True but Jed, Mac, Read and now Himmelberg the lesser need to become the next option

Kids plus himmelberg. Thats a big load, which probably explains bringing in mature himmelberg
Mac playing in defence next season looks like.

So 9 VFL players retired or delisted… Ace still on the list. I’m not concerned the slightest with the list changes

 

[Albertonarmy]

I like sid Draper the most but I’ve also said no more drafting from SA, and we don’t need him

So very open minded if we move to 2/3. You also gotta take best available then

Why haven't they announced Oea yet, they said he wasn't offered a contract a month ago. Draper will probably be the rising star next year, take the risk

 

[KaySwizzle]

Correct me if I’m wrong.. none of the above have ever kicked 30 snags in a season?

Long was on track for it. Only played just over half the season for 26 goals.

Rosas might if he could stop getting injured/suspended…

But yeah, none have actually done that for us, which is a worry.

Alex Sexton has

 

[Choppers]

Yep. In 2019 he grabbed 39 and in 2018 it was 28.......both seasons from 22 games

Yeah he may get it at another club. Tough to see him have more of an impact than will Graham did. Need to fit the Bear inside too, and then Lombard

 

[Ben Drever]

Melbs offered a future first too
