So glad the standing on the mark rule has increased scoring!

The rule was created by Hocking to aid Geelong's aging midfield.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

Agreed. I'd prefer to keep him but would do that trade.

Gov and Edwards could hold the fort, whilst we could retain Brander and look at a 3rd tall role for him and/or use one of those picks on a tall.

Moot anyway - but 2 first rounders (one very early) would usually get most deals done.

I reckon we’d use Allen as a backman as well.

 

[MIKE85]

I look forward to Brander winning a flag for us next year playing on the wing. “For the team that didn’t want him”

 

[Ok Boomer]

I would have heard Sydney out at least. With that sort of approach they surely would have had a nice offer. Depends on what Tom wants also I guess it has to be said.

 

[darksquare]

What would you of taken for Barass?

Chad Warner and the pick you get for Dawson. Which I’m sure many people here would consider poor value for a good, established KPD.

branders manager deserves an elite membership on bigfooty the stupid moron he is

 

[RUNVS]

I'd be asking for Trent Dennis Lane in the Barrass trade as a minimum.

We will give you Luke Ablett and you will be happy to take him.

Would be very interesting to know if it helped our salary cap (I can only assume it would, as Barrass would be on decent coin).

Anyway, happy to keep him.

 

[Keys]

Adelaide will be hoping the Demons 2022 follows their 2019 trajectory.

We all do.

HoneyBadger35 in particular

 

[ziad]

Will be absolutely stoked if Brander sticks around.
Just hope he has come to realise that he's no longer in the position where his attributes and potential afford him much value, he needs to be a contributor (which at times he has).

Equally, hoping the club/whatever WAFL club he is at can give him some greater direction.

Like harden up?

 

[Nuke Fremantle]

Looks like a very humbling experience for Brander. His management threatens to move him elsewhere but have only heard crickets.

Rookie list. Minimum wage.

Play him at CHF in the WAFL and give him 12 months to confirm once and for all if he's going to be a player or, as I sadly expect, a confirmed bust.

 

[AsterixTheGaul]

What about 4 and 12 if we manage to get it from the crows?

I'd take that.

 

[Miguel Sanchez]

We all do.

Any way we can get the Dees’ future first off Adelaide?

Would be tremendous fun to death ride them next year.

 

[archiemoses]

Can we trade Gov to Sydney?

I doubt it, that could be used in the Dawson deal and if it isn’t, the few reports I’ve read suggests Adelaide are willing to keep it as it helps with their pursuit of Rankine and Lukosious next off season.

They would surely agree to a straight swap of our future first for the dees future first.

Not without risk though

 

[JoshWoodenSpoon]

Gotta love TRadio. Tuned in for the first time just now. Spent too long repeatedly going over the dull af four-way trade, got behind schedule and had to take back-to-back ad breaks. Now they've glossed over the Brodie/Freo move in 10 seconds (without the actual details) so that Rendell can give us his GWS list review that we've all been crying out for.

 

[Happy Mastenator]

Don't understand this move from Dunstan - fringe player at the Saints and wants to try and break into an established midfield that just won the flag?

Games played by melbourne mids he might back himself to displace:
Harmes - 18
James Jordon - 22
Melksham - 10

Not to mention that Jones played 7 and has retired.

 

[Eastern Rangers]

No wonder Carlton is nowhere and SOS is unemployed.

Brander could put onto the rookie list we then take A Jones In the national draft at pick 35 . ( too high but ....)

 

[BBQ Mania]

Absolutely no offence meant towards you and your family, but that’s really not what the “multicultural” academies should be for is it. Same with the son of the ex-SANFL player that Adelaide picked up last year because he happened to be born in Egypt while his dad was working there.

If they’re going to persist with it it should be for actual multicultural prospects, kids who otherwise might not be interested in the sport, not kids who happened to be born overseas to Australian parents. They’ve defined it really poorly.

No offence taken as I completely agree with you. When I first got the letter it felt wrong as there is zero multicultural about us. I was chatting to a friend at work and he basically said, well the AFL are going to claim the diversity stat off you whether he gets the extra training or not, so he might as well get the extra training sessions. So we did. And as I said the Eagles have created a great culture so he enjoys them.

But yes, after explaining to people how the NGA works, I often say "so next time you hear the diversity stats out of the AFL, you now have some context around them". You also can't blame the clubs, it's the AFL who call the shots here, clubs are simply doing what they are allowed to do.

 

[hbk2015]

to throw a hail mary, do we take Mac Andrew to learn under nic nat now. Might be great for our next run and re build

 

[Eastern Rangers]

Brander will walk to another club in the preseason draft if we don’t trade or re-sign him.

Melksham doesn’t play midfield and I doubt he’ll be playing much more going forward. Harmes might be at most risk but he offers more as a defensive mid. Sparrow and Jordon are two he could push out but they would be insane to do so. Sparrow especially looks like a serious player. I can’t see Dunstan playing many games for them but they have a readymade replacement if Viney or Oliver get injured

No, he’s incredibly raw and IMO a very high risk pick.
