Speculation Jayden Laverde [UFA 2025]

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

Sought a contract extension from Essendon and got told No and to look elsewhere. Think he might have a few suitors and suspect he will be given away for free. I could see St Kilda wanting him to replace Battle, Collingwood wanting him instead of Keane, Sydney wanting him as a ready made player to backup ahead of Francis .

Price would be a pick upgrade only and could get a 3 year deal elsewhere

Free to a good home provided you take his decision making with you.

He shouldn't be playing as the main kpd because his decision making is horrible. Needs to be playing 3rd tall. Pies would suit him best if they don't get Keane.

First round draft pick, KPD in his prime years.
Clubs will need to pony up a pick between 5-10 or GTFO.

Straight swap for Sam Walsh sounds about right

So you’re saying they’d be keen if they don’t get Keane

I assume we'll look at him as a cheap short term replacement for Battle while Arie and McLennan develop.

Don’t do it

 

[Bunk Moreland]

If he can get a longer contract elsewhere he should leap all over it. Will be 29 next year and very limited. Go for it mate, make hay.

Honestly not worth a packet of chicken twistes

Magoo wasn't either, there's always someone silly enough to pay.

I’m assuming you would let him go for peanuts?

Otherwise any club that actually wanted him would just wait to get him for free next year

We’ll throw in pick 8 if they take McGrath and McKays decision making too
