GWS GIANTS

Who they’re targeting

Braydon Preuss
will make the move from Melbourne to GWS in a boost to their depleted ruck stocks. Preuss’ current teammate Tom McDonald could join him, as the Dees are in the hunt for Ben Brown and McDonald could get more opportunity elsewhere. Jeremy Cameron’s impending departure makes McDonald even more of a target for the Giants. Speaking of Cameron, the Giants are set to match Geelong’s bid for the restricted free agent and are keen on Brandan Parfitt and Esava Ratugolea, even though the former looks virtually impossible to make happen.

Who might leave

Where to begin. Jeremy Cameron (Geelong) wants out, as do Zac Williams (Carlton), Aidan Corr (North Melbourne), Jye Caldwell (Essendon) and Jackson Hately (Adelaide). Zac Langdon is expected to join them and request a trade to the Eagles. Xavier O’Halloran is still undecided on his future and has attracted plenty of interest from rival clubs. They’re set to bring in an almighty draft haul if they want it, but it’s hard to see the Giants coming out on top based on the sheer weight of departures in store.

Draft picks

40, 46, 68, 82

Verdict

This could well be the most important trade period in the club’s short history. Making matters more complicated is that the Giants aren’t overly keen on stocking up with picks and going to the draft - they want to contend. Depending on their negotiating skills, they may be able to prise one promising youngster out of Geelong in exchange for Cameron. McDonald would be a genuinely promising pickup for the Giants if he can click with their side and instantly offers them a key forward or defensive option, which is what they’ll need desperately.

I wonder if Cameron would consider another club.
I think there are Melbourne clubs with better prospects than Geelong. If I was cameron( and this is potentially worrying) , I would only go to Geelong if I thought a couple of good midfielders were going to follow me. Namely Josh kelly and/or taranto/ hopper.I hope I am wrong though.
Also, we need better assistant coaches. Are the likes of Steve johnson/ Luke Hodge available

Tend to agree will be better prospects also $$$ but lifestyle factor would be the big thing for Jezza
But the difference in money other clubs could offer compared to Geelong would make him think a little if things get messy
Will be interesting if Cats lodge on Friday to start the process early for the 2 clubs to begin formal talks
Also, we need better assistant coaches. Are the likes of Steve johnson/ Luke Hodge available
Stevie J has been signed as our new forwards coach and with the reduction in the Football Department cap, un-likely any other additions but crossing fingers 🤞
 
With Jezza its Geelong or bust.
His partner is the sister of Ryan Griffins wife, they live in the area and they want to be close to her family and by extension Jezzas family.
Already have eyes on a 20 acre site near Jan Juc.
Geelong will play ball as they have committed to Jezza, two first rounds will get it done!

Treloar, Hogan.... who’s next? Bennell?
Best wishes to all 3, but the Giants don’t need them.

They didn't take Adams back wouldn't see them even contemplating Treloar

You would ponder De Goey prior to Bennell but if going down that path may as well put Cousins in the NEAFL 🤣

Now the Cameron thread has dived into whinging about how we owe Cameron etc. [emoji2357]
Next they will want us to pay his contract while he is there and put petrol in his boat 🤣
