Well then we do that then and get GC pick and turn Smith into pick one and Reid

Smith + pick 10 + pick 17 (+ maybe future first) for Reid

Kid would have to be good. A lot to give up

 

[Euku]

No

Smith + pick 10 + pick 17 (+ maybe future first) for Reid

Wouldn't mind Harmes if cheap. Could work as a defensive mid/fwd.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

Was at the railway hotel in Yarravlle after the reserves final and most players came in including Lobb. He genuinely looked like he was getting on well with everyone. Also plays regular golf with other players as well. Hardly a lepper.

There is something about Lobb that makes me like him, and i don't think he is going anywhere

No was referring to pick 3 & 4 for pick 1

 

[Snarls Barkley]

Exactly. Thats what we are giving up to get pick 3 (Smith) and 4 (10+17+probably extra)

[Snarls Barkley]

Even if its just 10, 17 (don’t think its near enough to satisfy Gold Coast) and Smith. Its an awful lot to give away for one player, however highly rated he is.

In general I don’t think trading 3 and 4 for 1 is a good idea either.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

The players don’t buy into Bevo anymore. Clear as day. Naughton has already caught word of McQualter coming as head coach and looks forward to it.

Josh Carr you mean

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

People really underestimate how helpful Naughton is to Jamarra not only on the field but id wager it makes it damn easier to resign JUH as well.

Yes it will as i know they are very close

 

[CaptainMurphy]

I'd love to add Leake into the backline

Bad name for a defender (I'm a fan though)

Apparently Adrian Brickwall is a possible late smokey.

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

James Harmes big chance to the dogs ,has met with club.

Yes Please

 

[Flags_In_The_Bag]

I’m led to believe Dogs have interviewed both Dew and Leppitch and are a chance to join the coaching panel as assistants next season. Fingers crossed.

Wow awesome if true, esp Leppa

 

[Freshwater]

Yes please Leppa, I reckon he is exactly what we need. He maybe wasn’t quite ready to be head coach at the Lions, but talks so well in the media (which shows he can talk well to intimidating players) and has even success at Richmond and Collingwood now. Huge news if this is true? Let’s hope so?

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Apparently Hawks giving up on Smith (as he won't leave) and targeting pick 1. Might not be bad for us if WC end up with pick 3 and take Curtin. Ie better chance of McKercher/Watson/Duursma at 4 (6)

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Would hope in all this talk for pick '4' Sam Power is telling the Suns its actually pick 6, so 10 & 17 are enough.

To which they reply - you mean 13 and 22...

 

[Libba39]

Who is the Saints former top 10 pick that wants to come across to the Dogs? Can't open the Hun article.

Coffield.

 

[Libba39]

Coffield.

Is he a B, C, or D-grader?

 

[Mojorisin]

Is he a B, C, or D-grader?

Depends on if he can stay on the park. His had horrible luck the last 2 years.

 

[House_of_Dahl]

Coffield was the pick before Naughton and was touted to have outstanding leadership qualities with his strengths considered his athleticism, efficiency, evasiveness and versatility. He's become more an an intercept defender that can use the ball well and it definitely the versatile type of defender we should be in the market for.

He actually came 4th in the Saints B&F in his 3rd year (2020) before struggling with form the year after (2021). Did his ACL at the beginning of 2022 and didn't play a game of football due to a nagging calf injury until the back end of 2023 where he was fairly dominate in the VFL.

I think you could probably compare him to a Nathan Broad type of player.

Is he a B, C, or D-grader?

Essendon are the swingers of Trade Week. Happy to throw their keys in the bowl and get as much as they can as often as they can during the week. They don't care who it is as long as they come out at the end of the week with the highest number of notches on their belt.

They love to win trade week even if their additions to the team do nothing to actually improve the balance of the team or address any structural problems.

Angus Hastie is in this year’s draft
