Not relevant to discussion regarding player trades- but if this goes through it'll be a big coup for the Roos!!

[helicopterking]

Cale Morton to Eagles for pick 88
edwards to tigers for pick 74 or so i think to

also does pick 88 have aids or something?
no one wants to keep it


why are west coast playing such hard ball with brown?

Becoz they want to keep him as insurance if Glass or McKenzie break down. Plus how much longer will Glass go for.

[Johno6]

yeah i know but as soon as browns contract is up (1 year left i think) brown is gone.
why not get somethin for him now?
surprised they are goin after another forward tho,

Makes me think Lecras wont be playing forward much this year.

[Johno6]

yeah i would assume he would spend more time in midfield now.
only area i think needs any tweaking is back lines.

Trade

Melbourne sends Jordan Gysberts to the Kangaroos for Cameron Pederson and a draft pick

[Brodlach]

Another Port trade

Swan Campbell Heath has been traded to @PAFC, along with pick 85, in exchange for pick 72

[Booney]

Another Port trade

Swan Campbell Heath has been traded to @PAFC, along with pick 85, in exchange for pick 72

187cm / 75kg. Played across half-back for Sydney's two's in the NEAFL and took the best small/medium forward. Delisted at the end of 2011 but picked back up on the rookie list in 2012, elevated to the senior list just before the 2012 AFL finals as back up for the Sydney back half.

Heath replaces Surjan/Pearce
Stevenson ( 189cm/88kg ) replaces Surjan/Pearce.
Hombsch replaces Chaplin.
Monfries replaces Rodan.

I'm happy with those trades. The in-coming having an upside, the out-going we know what they could offer and are part ( not all ) of the reason we are where we are.

He and Butcher used to play together in junior footy and had a good "partnership"

Trade

The @sydneyswans have traded Matthew Spangher and pick 72 to @HawthornFC, in exchange for pick 66

[Johno6]

SPANGHERRRR love that guy!

[blink]

Early trade today, Gold Coast has secured Greg Broughton and pick 60 from Freo in exchange for pick 37

Has anyone else noticed that Freo seem to be shifting out a bit of excess in their salary cap? They must have plenty of $$ lying around after offering Cloke $1 million per season this year.

I'm thinking that they will be making a BIG play on a WA-born star that happens to come out of contract at the end of 2013....

Who are you thinking Blink?

Maybe making room for Tippet

[Johno6]

Is buddy from WA?
when is his concract up?

[Brodlach]

Stephen Gilham to GWS

[valleys07]

Is buddy from WA?

Certainly is.

No idea when his contract expires though.

[Johno6]

i thought he was from WA, wonder if he has any intentions to come home?

also gilham is a good pick up for GWS
thought there was rumour of him going somewhere earlier in week.

[Brodlach]

Another trade

Melbourne involved in another trade, Stefan Martin deal done. To Lions for picks 53 and 73

[Rik E Boy]

People rating Gilham again. Not too sure why.
