I think the basic thing I'd be looking for in a Curnow Trade is that if you're giving up something exceptional then I want something exceptional back in return, not just picks. For me the Suns would still be the best target.
Blues Get: Ethan Reid, Pick 7 & Pick 8
Suns Get: Charlie Curnow, Pick 10 & Pick 22
Chuck a seven year deal at $1.2m/season and see if you can create a stir in the chook house. The interesting thing about this proposal is that it probably wouldn't affect GC's ability to trade for Trac. Whether they can fit them both into their salary cap is entirely a different conversation.
I'd be looking to get a little more back if trading for Jed Walter as he's yet to really prove himself consistently at AFL level.
Anyone on this board who thinks Wright, Davies & Austin are going to settle for Rowbottom, Hayward or Florent Plus Pick 11 & a F1st is kidding themselves.
Thoughts.

Jagga Smith will travel to the United States this week to complete one of the final parts of his recovery. Carlton confident he will be back in skills work on day one of pre-season and ease back into main training on the other side of Christmas.
@AFLcomau
And you dont have Carroll or Lord in the side. Wilson and the Campo boys also. Good competition for spots although we need another KPF and KPDNewman, Weiters, Cowan
Florent, Haynes, Hollands
Chesser, Cripps, Walsh
Ainsworth, Kemp, Cotterell
Motlop, Harry, Hayward
R - Pittonet, Walsh, Cerra
I - Jagga, Hewett, E Hollands, Cotterell
This side looks more balanced than 2025 but does lack a little star power unless Cripps and Walsh can return to their best.
Also Moir who will be important as a 3rd tall without Charlie, and Zac Williams who should replace Motlop.And you dont have Carroll or Lord in the side. Wilson and the Campo boys also. Good competition for spots although we need another KPF and KPD
How did I miss Moir - Im rather big on him.Also Moir who will be important as a 3rd tall without Charlie, and Zac Williams who should replace Motlop.
Dean is the KPD, we just need to give him time.

No mention of Flynn Young? Maybe we gave him an 18 month contract when we drafted him?Carlton has told the same to veteran defender Mitch McGovern and rookie recruit Will White, though Harry Charleson and Francis Evans will be rolled over on the rookie list with new deals for 2026.
Pretty sure he was 6mths only but we have stated in the past that we like to give MSD time enough to have a chance at AFL level.No mention of Flynn Young? Maybe we gave him an 18 month contract when we drafted him?

The Moose may make an appearance late as a depth option for usWe were interested in Lual at draft time.
Others of interest. Clohesy & Wiltshire, C.Harvey & Maley.
All decent players who would be unlucky to drop out if the system.We were interested in Lual at draft time.

We’re going to have an awesome Tuesday night basketball team with Pitto, Reidy & Moose.The Moose may make an appearance late as a depth option for us
List spots are tight across the comp.All decent players who would be unlucky to drop out if the system.
So if Charlie goes (highly likely now) and Harry gets injured or knocked out (somewhat likely), who is the main target? Kemp? Lol
What skills have we shown that we could kick it to a player on the lead?The main target will be the player making the best lead or creating space with hard running, not some pre-determined superstar who must be fed the ball regardless of whether he’s done the work to make position.
