2026/2027 Draft & Trade Periods

[Billy ray]

Bailey Humphreys mate… Pretty much confirms it

yes, correct. holding on to our contracted ones that are good/very good/great

 

[ajhgcs]

Getting a bit childish now… someone needs to remind humphrey and his mate that they are adults

he's doubling down in the comments below, seems to have cracked the sads that Humphrey isn't being traded.

Maybe If Humphrey wasn't being photographed talking to oppo coaches then maybe he could've gotten traded. The fact that his manager lied to the club and didn't tell the club until after the photos were leaked if not just bad but reckless management.

Bailey desperately needs new management. Maybe someone to tell him if you're having 2nd thoughts about being at GC then don't sign a long extension after 1 season or tell someone at the club.

Yeah if he wanted to leave, we may have been more receptive if he didn't blindside the club in early October.

Hope we don’t welcome someone that publicly trashes our club in our rooms anymore…

Mates need to grow up significantly, he's better off up here.

what his boneheaded mates comment tells me is that he’s begrudgingly this year and will push hard for a trade next year. Time to get our affairs in order

Well that gives Dimma plenty of time to convince him otherwise doesn't.

Even if he goes next year it will be on the Suns terms for overs.

The mate is clearly a dope, this carry on only makes it harder to get what he wants.

Just finished up talking to someone close with the boys at the club. Ainsworth is genuinely shattered, didnt want to leave at all. Sucks to hear the human side of it all

Why did his manager reach out to Carlton then?

 

[Gorringe Can Go Jump]

Mini GF would love to know your thoughts on recent developments

 

[Supersuns]

Humphrey has completely switched from my favourite to public enemy number 1. What a flog he is being

It's the unfortunate side of sport, there is no space for loyalty on either side.

I'm sure Ainsworth wanted to stay, and Humphrey wants to leave, but as a club you need to make a decision on what's best for the club.

The Sydney Swans are probably the best run club in the AFL and are about to do the same with either James Rowbottom or Will Hayward to get Charlie Curnow.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

Bailey mate sounds like he’ll snitch if you inbox him for details… which I bet someone here can easily do

 

[SaadyArmy]

Not the first or last player to be told he can look at other opportunies. Some choose to stay and fight - fiorini, MacPherson, others will take that opportunity. Win win for everyone, don’t think he has reason to be shattered

 

[Supersuns]

Why did his manager reach out to Carlton then?

He was told by the club to explore options

 

[SaadyArmy]

He was told by the club to explore options

So was Fironi, McPherson etc

 

[Jirik13]

Not sure if people noticed but I believe it was Gabelich who reported today that Dimma and Anderson met Rogers and Lombard to sort out things after reports Roges was exploring market.

 

[nutstar]

I have a question…
Can we call someone a bed wetter whilst they still play for us?
Because Bailey is the epitome of a Bedwetter.
His mates certainly don’t help his cause.
They must breed them special in Moe

Gippy is a shithole. Like the hinterland with shit weather and a big ugly power station. I should know I live there

If you live there, why are you not Humphrey's best friend?

Been through Moe once and I saw atleast 3 people walking down the main street with no shoes on

Too be fair, back in the day, Ashmore Plaza used to get plenty of bare feet patrons through the door.

Why did his manager reach out to Carlton then?

He was told to by the club. Suns said he’s not required anymore and he should look around

Noah’s on a boys trip in japan

Wonder when that happened

I reckon he has been told he is not best 22 next year and wont be guaranteed a spot, he has done it to himself, hasn't progressed or improved the way he plays, slow decision maker playing in a "take the game on" game plan, selfish player in forward 50 that doesn't dish off and tries to kick the low percentage set shots and has terrible percentage rates, simply has not improved but literally regressed, its by his own doing no guilt on the club for that, smart to move him on
