Only 2 farms left in Geelong to purchase ive heard. Although when Rhys Stanley retires and sells his farm for 8.7 mill to Simmonds Homes in 2028 it should free up a extra list spot for Geelong

What can Geelong and Collingwood realistically expect to give the Suns, especially if Geelong are still looking at Butters and Reid? Picks in the 20’s won’t cut it IMO especially with the bidding system changes.

That's my gut feel.

What makes you say that. I have no idea either way but my gut tells me we haven't ever been in the Rowell race. Butters and Reid I believe we're a shot at in 12-months time.

we would be looking at Rowell in the event Port won't trade Butters this year we want to strike now. With Rowell realistically 2 r1s will get it done even if that's unders-given he's ooc.

Doesn't really matter where the picks are for the suns. They won't get picks that land ahead of a Zeke Uwland bid no matter who they trade with. Middle of the road picks are probably better for them tbh.

Whatever picks they get for Rowell they will either trade forward to next year or trade for a player anyway.

They'll need to keep a lot of points in this year though with Addinsal and Patterson potentially going in the first round too.

We've got the points for that.
We have ports, our own and Collingwoods firsts.

Then I have no idea what anyone could actually offer you. You don't need players, you don't need picks.

I will be shocked if he leaves the Suns, it's a little worry he hasn't re-signed though.

We need Rowell to stay, but he won't. So we are just screwed

I mean you'd be worse but I expect Touk to just play that role and you'd still keep getting better through maturity of the group

Touks role this year is the best he has been, Humphrey, Will Graham and Flanders will have to fill the Rowell hole by committee but it wont be the same. Sucks that even when the club turns it around we leak players.

One of those weird ones where they basically would get nothing of value back because picks dont help them in any way. If im Suns im giving the guy 2 year 4 mill deal because the difference between him leaving now and in 2 years time is huge
Just give him whatever he asks for should be the answer

Yeah I think Flanders is also very capable, Humphries is one of my favourite opposition players to watch.
I think the real line in the sand though was Humphries. When he signed on I think that was a turning point where Dew had the group bought in.
Wouldn't be surprised either if the reason Rowell is looking around is because Dew got sacked

Surely, he has seen Dimma's coaching though and said to himself we are a much better team with this coaching.
I think they’ve improved, but more off the back of general growth, and my biggest concern for them is I think the ladder lies atm.
It’s been a pretty cushy draw so far. And it only gets better. Have only played 2 top 8 teams away from home, and one of them was in QLD anyway. Failed both tests.
Whilst it sets them up for the final 8, playing the good teams at home and the worse sides as away games is actually setting them up for failure IMO.
