I've not been following the trade period too hard outside of the headlines but are we no longer gunning for Houston?

Also how do we get the Campo twins if we use our first pick?

We are interested in Houston, but not at any price. Seems Pies willing to pay more than we are.

We won't need a first round pick for either of the Camporeale boys. Seems like Ben could get done with some late picks, Lucas might be a 'free hit'.

Feel like we could have done that Essendon trade if we'd been able to make any headway with trading Owies and Kennedy.

Would have cost us our future 2nd as well, but we'd still have our future first.

Sides have recognised our lack of list spots and probably think that trumps our desire for draft picks, so they're waiting out these players to see if we will let them go for almost nothing.
 
We were never getting a 2nd round pick for either Owies or Kennedy they both have little to no value and unfortunately if they find a club that will take them we are likely to get a token 4th round pick or a minor late upgrade.
The club can’t be criticised for a one paced midfielder and a slow forward have little to no value they are doing the right thing trying to move them on.

The same club that recruited Hewett and I'll add one positional Hewett?
 
Ok so if the trade looks like this:

Port:

Out: Houston

In: Lukosious, Atkins, Richards, Pick 13

GC

Out: Pick 13, Atkins, Lukosious

In: Noble, Collingwood F1

Collingwood

Out: Future 1st, Noble, Richards

In: Houston

It's still a bit unbalanced.

Maybe Collingwood give up a future 3rd to GC?

Atkins, as in Rory Atkins? Hasn't he retired? Either way, he's shot.

This values Lukosius the same as Noble. Pies make out like bandits.
 
FMD Gold Coast folded like a deck of cards.
Gold Coast have multiple academy selections next year. The new system is very harsh. Zeke Uwland is in pick 1 conversations. They need bulk high selections for 2025 to have any chance of matching for those players. Future firsts are GOLD for the Suns as they will likely be for us in ‘26. Addinsall another first rounder most likely.

This new system goes way too far the other way from the existing/old system.

This is why it has been/is being done. Very few opportunities to get those picks. Our F1 and F2 wasn’t enough for that reason.

Regardless they could have done the Melbourne trade and come out further ahead than this trade puts them.

Then there's other teams who were offering future picks to them.

This is just bad list management
 
Depth who can be trusted to play a handful of games.

You'd think there'd be better DFAs.

List spots are usually at a premium.
