If you hit your head against a brick wall often enough, eventually most people realise 'shit that hurts, I might try something different!'

Or, you know... brain damage.
 
To be fair I personally rate Austin and would've liked him to request a trade to us via homesickness
Just to be clear - my previous comment was in relation to St Kilda asking about Tommo. I too have liked how Logan has been progressing, and at one stage similarly wondered if he might make his way back to us. Sort of lost that thought when Jack Steele bailed on us 12 months ago, given how much they were friends. This news seems to have put the nail into the coffin, although very late in the trade window to ask.
 
Going to be a mannic day i think.

For some reason i cant stop thinking that there is a mature player in the works.

The club does this every year on the last day right :)

I hope not to be honest.

No more mature players.

We have finals experience.

Yep, expecting some shitfights, late trades, and a surprise or two across the whole board. Hopefully less on the surprises front for GWS. I am expecting maybe a ruck to replace Mummy, but just a backup on low money (Zac Clarke maybe?). More so, I want the trading team to hold out for fair value for Matt K & Nathan Wilson. Suspect we would like one more pick this year and one 2018 pick (or maybe that's simply my projected outcome).

Is this where I'm an awful pedant and point out that Griffen's trade happened on the second last day of the trade period and Stevie was on the fourth last...?

Yes, yes I do believe it is. :D

He must have read your post so he's updated his phrasing:
  • "There's another small thing on the go, but we haven't resolved that yet," Cameron said.
Other interesting snippets from http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-10-18/giants-want-more-than-secondrounder-for-wilson:
  • Dockers have offered up their future second for Wilson but we have our eyes on a Gold Coast second round pick.
  • Carlton is still only offering a pick in the 40s for Kennedy but we want a top 30 pick.
Nothing groundbreaking, mainly confirmation of what I'd expect.

I think it's a bold move to trade Gibbs for the Blues. I get he's the wrong age profile for them. Pulling a very solid plank out if a developing team could have consequences though. They seem solidly behind Bolton, but their members are giong to want to the Footy with confidence they can sing the song after the game. Maybe they saw little choice if he doesn't want to stay.
Got to be good for Matt though, they're going to be looking for him to step up, and it's a vote of confidence in him to some extent I think.
 
If we do the Kennedy for 18’ 2nd rounder we should upgrade 2017 1st rounder from 11 to 10 as part of it.

I would be shocked if we trade Kennedy for Adelaide's 2018 second round pick. We've said we want something better than pick 30, but that pick is likely to be mid-30s at best next year.

Unless Adelaide are the "surprise sliders" next year?

I'd be worried if any club was doing their trades based on gambling on surprises. They might head down to the TAB to try and double the budget at the same time. :D
