Latest news and rumours:

• Tom Barrass officially requests trade to Hawthorn
  • Duffield: Eagles want two first round picks - "It may have to be in this year’s draft rather than a future pick."
  • Morris: Josh Battle is set to join Barrass at Hawthorn in 2025 - Ralph: Unclear if Hawks will pay enough for Band 1

• Kysaiah Pickett interested in a trade
  • "Club and management are confident they can work through his concerns"
  • Daniels: Pickett’s preference is Fremantle. Fremantle are keen, but Bolton the priority. Getting both “not impossible”. West Coast “an option if things get complicated.”

• Jai Culley, Coen Livingstone, Loch Rawlinson in line for one-year deals (The West)
  
  
• Liam Baker and Shai Bolton

[Big_Birdy]

I'd rather scour the state leagues and sign the best mature-aged (~23-25 year old) key back we can find. Clurey at 30 makes no sense..

North did that exact thing with Toby Pink.


They are now playing him forward.

 

[HoneyBadger35]

We've seen your hands on the podcast mate, the closest you've come to working under a bonnet is opening the fuel cap.

A bonnet, like what people in period dramas wear on their head?

Cal Twomey's Phantom Form Guide: Top draft prospects' August ranking

AFL.com.au's draft guru Cal Twomey delivers his second Phantom Form Guide ahead of the 2024 Telstra AFL Draft

www.afl.com.au

Updated version.
Ashcroft still 1
Langford into 3
Sid into 7

Champion still not in the 30

Gerryne not in the 30 either ! Want him at 23 ! Our next KPD

 

[Get_The_Gaff]

Great Murphy Reid was the best out of the tier 2 mids!!!!! He pure class with elite skills

Onto the combine where it's make a break for the tier 2 mids to turn our heads

Lucky we have pick 3 and tier 1 mids to choose from like Draiper

 

[Mojorisin]

Gerryne not in the 30 either ! Want him at 23 ! Our next KPD

I think you'd be able to get him in the 40s or 50s, he isnt getting much love outside of Perth.

word is hedwards as re-signed to 2027

 

[Godfather32]

Keep it that way, I've liked what I've seen from him

 

[fullbull]

Of course, Chris Judd left a powerhouse club to go to perennial losers in Carlton and did so for mummy reasons.

FTFY

 

[Bennellongtime]

Just curious, everyone's going on about getting FOS, but I don't think he'll be available at pick 3. Is no one else keen on Jagga Smith?

 

[mattyc75]

No one seems to think he'll be able to bulk up enough and that his kicking and hurt factor aren't great

I think Richmond are pretty keen on Jagga at 1, but they could be warming to the idea of Harvey Langford too (according to a mate who’s a Tigers fan, make of that what you will - they were very keen on Smillie before his recent average form, so you could see Langford being their preference if they want the big bodied midfielder). My preference is Draper, followed by FOS.

 

[Elite Pete]

You go mock top 20 for us?

 

[Spange]

**** I hate Vic Metro.

Ban them all for draft tampering.

Need to make rules apply across the board - if you get drafted interstate then you are committed for a set number of years no matter where you are drafted to cut this bullshit out

 

[BrotherDodge]

Of course, Chris Judd left a powerhouse club to go to perennial losers in Carlton and did so for money reasons.

Tbf that squad was a unique situation. I was furious with Judd at the time, but in hindsight I can understand how you'd get sick of hanging out with those lunatics.

 

[3agles87]

Can I just say great trade by the WCE Bigfooty mods. Trading out Brizkent early today for Majorisin has been an excellent outcome.

The random mansplainer of all things footy, whether we want it or not, for someone with intell they are happy to keep to themselves, inspired upgrade. What else did we have to give up, did you delete Dark Sharks’ account again?

Now lock the board before Briz tries to get back in.

 

[ArdentEagle]

Judd McVee please.

I'm Rivers before McVee.
We need a poll!

 

[Altum Volantes]

word is hedwards as re-signed to 2027

He is a very lucky man.

Prove me wrong you injury riddled, undisciplined Gumby!

is a key back who can’t get a look in at the suns anymore. He is contracted until the end of 2026 but we should be enquiring if we could get himwhen barass leaves

If that trade plays out here would be my preference:
3 - Finn O'Sullivan (outside leaning mid) or Harvey Langford (inside leaning mid)
View attachment 2079280
12 - Tobie Travaglia (make it happen)

23 - Christian Moraes or Xavier Lindsay (too good to pass up if either is available at this pick)
View attachment 2079242

27 - Possibly a tall defender in Alix Tauru, Noah Mraz or Matt Whitlock
59 - James Barrat - he is demonstrating to be an elite interceptor down back. I spoke to him after the Geelong Falcons game two weeks ago and asked him who he styles his game on and he said it was Tom Barrass.
Check out a few of his big marks below from this season:

I’d be surprised if we aren’t one of the clubs now starting to pick the carcass of the Melbourne Football Club

I think he will be.

I suspect Adelaide will trade with North to get Draper or North take Draper. Wouldn't be shocked if they are looking at Armstrong if they trade back.
