After trading for Jamarra Ugle-Hagan, the Gold Coast Suns are betting on a refresh of their forward structure and list trajectory. This move is less about immediate fireworks and more about aligning talent, culture and timing for a genuine premiership tilt.
After turning down huge offers from both South Australian clubs, Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera re-signed at St Kilda on a landmark deal. His commitment gave the club stability during a busy trade period and reshaped recruiting dynamics across the league.
Zach Merrett remains under contract and at the club—and despite public trade speculation, Essendon held the line. Now the focus shifts: how will the Bombers recalibrate around their skipper, restructure leadership, and reignite a finals push in 2026?
After ten seasons and 313 goals for Carlton, Charlie Curnow has arrived at Sydney in one of the biggest deals of the 2025 trade period. The Swans have flipped their forward stocks and signalled they’re all-in for 2026 — while Carlton have begun a major reset.
Christian Petracca’s decision to leave Melbourne and join the Gold Coast Suns marks one of the biggest player-movements of the 2025 trade period. With multiple first-round picks heading to the Demons and Petracca bringing premiership experience to the Suns, the game landscape just changed.
Leek Aleer officially requested a move to St Kilda—but by mid-October the Saints had walked away. The sudden back-flip leaves questions about their list strategy, credibility in trade circles, and what lies next for the GWS defender.
St Kilda’s move for Gold Coast’s Sam Flanders gives them the burst speed and contested aggression they’ve been missing. His arrival reshapes the forward mix, linking midfield grunt with scoreboard impact in a way that fits Ross Lyon’s evolving system.
West Coast have landed one of the league’s most reliable lockdown defenders, prising Brandon Starcevich out of Brisbane in a complex three-club trade. The move injects leadership, toughness, and instant stability into a backline still finding its identity.
Brisbane have landed a cornerstone for their next premiership tilt, signing Oscar Allen as a restricted free agent from West Coast. His arrival gives the Lions a genuine power forward presence to complement their elite midfield and explosive smalls.
St Kilda’s trade coup for Tom De Koning isn’t just about size — it’s about flexibility. With De Koning joining as a ruck/forward hybrid, the Saints’ spine reshapes immediately, opening up inside-50 options and rotational possibilities Ross Lyon hasn’t had before.
