[lily of laguna]

It’s been reported on the port website that we have won the battle with other Vic teams for Yasmin Duursma.

Just got to get the deal across.

I’m very happy to gain a player during trade week after the very leaky ship we have had in the few years

Anyone know much about Yaz?

Defender to depart, Blues target Pies father-daughter, Dogs tall

A popular Blue has not been offered a new contract as Carlton looks to re-shape its list in the Trade Period

Looking like a busy trade period for us.

Don’t agree with letting go of Mua though

Noooooooooo not Mua

However, popular defender Mua Laloifi is set to part ways with the club and has attracted interest from the Western Bulldogs and Sydney, among others, after being told she would not be offered a new contract to stay at Ikon Park.

 

[bigblueboy]

Odd that we didn’t offer Mua a contract. Something NQR there.

 

[wally funk]

Absolute ****ing madness to let Mua walk. One of our very best defenders!

 

[GalaxyBlue]

Annie Lee set to depart as well…

Carlton is also keen on Ahrens, while the club will secure deals for Port Adelaide youngster Yasmin Duursma and Collingwood father-daughter Tarni Brown. The Blues will also pair Moody alongside her twin sister Breann in the ruck.

Young defender Annie Lee is likely to head to Collingwood as part of any deal for Brown, while fellow Carlton defender Mua Laloifi has attracted interest from both the Bulldogs and Sydney after being told she would not be offered a new contract at Ikon Park.

Edit to add:

We’re also sniffing around Ellie Gavalas (North), while Paige Trudgeon might be heading to the Saints.

Gavalas, who played eight games this season but was dropped from the Kangaroos team that featured throughout the finals, has so far attracted the attentions of Carlton, Essendon, Collingwood, Richmond and the Western Bulldogs.

St Kilda is also hoping to improve its list as it aims for a maiden AFLW finals appearance, with the club targeting moves for Carlton defender Paige Trudgeon and Giants ruck Rene Caris over the next week.

 

[Bluella]

Devo about Mua. She's my favourite.

 

[drunkill]

She did play injured this year, and missed a little bit of preseason iirc? Perhaps her body is done, which would be a huge shame because she's still our best defender in a weak defensive backline at the moment.

Any other club would love to have her.

 

[TheBlueCampaigner]

Working on deals to get Bri Moody's sister Celine from the Dogs and Tarni Brown from the Pies.

 

[Jimmae]

Mua has more value to another team given she prefers to play as a key defender and interceptor, while we've already got Trudgeon, Peterson, Cordener, and Lawson-Tavan.

By the sounds of the incomings, we might be able to swing some upgrades at the draft too, maybe enough to grab another pick before we're dealing with a potential bid.

Excited to get some more elite athleticism into the mix, but I suspect Jess Good may also depart so we're not overstocked with senior-quality rucks.

Trudgeon is off to the Saints.

 

[Jimmae]

Trudgeon is off to the Saints.

Well I did put up four names for arguably 2 spots, and that was off the top of my head.

We played Lawson a fair bit, and she did improve fairly rapidly in the program, so there's every chance we play Peterson in the midfield again and recruit a youngster to develop and play backup.

By comparison, Trudgeon got about an hour of football this year.

 

[Jimmae]

Wrigley's contract is not getting renewed based on the current chatter.

 

[GalaxyBlue]

Four-way trade! Welcome Tarni

All the best to Paige and Annie.





IN: Tarni Brown, pick 46
OUT: Annie Lee (Coll), Paige Trudgeon (StK), pick 47 (North)

Brown to wear Navy Blue in 2024 after four-way trade

[Jimmae]

Lee was always a strange pick at 10, but she became steak knives in this deal.

A lot of clubs should have been much more athletically focused early on.

 

[GalaxyBlue]

Welcome Celine!


And thank you Mua


IN: Celine Moody
OUT: Mua Laloifi, pick 25

And I thought us giving pick 25 for a 26 year old ruck that hadn't realised their full potential was bad... two clubs just threw away top 10 picks for 30 year olds!
