Humphrey, pick 6 and 7 for Trac, Kozzie and Melbournes future first who says no?
I am sure we would all appreciate some examples of toxic behaviour from senior players.

Just for fun, trade Humphrey for petracca then grab merrett with 7 +8 and hawks end up with neither.

You're going to be very disappointed when all you find is Tom Sparrow
Rumour doing the rounds at the moment is Merrett will request a trade to Hawthorn tomorrow. If that's true, you'd think Humphrey is far less likely to request a trade.

Welcome (back) to being a middle of the pack (or lower) team. It’s how it works.
Players want to leave you and big names don’t want to come until you’ve proven you are on the up, so you take the draft picks you can. Trust us, we know. We were in that cycle for a long time. It sucks.
Now it is our turn to prey on the lower ladder clubs (sorry) and try and strong-arm ourselves into the best position.

I wouldn’t be worrying about some bloke from Moe thinks
Exactly. Let's wait to see if Bailey himself actually says something. My bet is he won't and this circus will be over on Wednesday.
He doesn’t seem real talkative for someone that has been stirring sh$t up

Only way I see Bailey seeing out until 2028 is of he finds a Mrs in Goldie. Best way to get rid of his peanut mates

To land Humphrey would be a big ask. We rate him highly, and his potential to be far higher, so would require a LOT in trade.
We'd be looking for more than a starting 18 player, he'd need to be young, walk up start (top 6-10) and playing a position we want to fill (and there's not a lot of them).
I dare say you wouldn't be in a rush to part with such a player.

Maybe, but as a guy who is still improving, I'd like to think his value will improve every year too, so we should hold onto him as long as we can.

Toughen up Bailey. You can’t always get things your way - welcome to adult life
He’ll be fine once he gets back to GC.
Ps. Ignore his small town idiot mates

Christian Petracca
Petracca will get to Gold Coast this week, and no, it won’t include Bailey Humphrey going to Melbourne, or any other Victorian club. The Suns have been adamant from the moment Humphrey was photographed walking The Tan with Steven King and Nathan Jones that they would not trade him. Gold Coast are prepared to trade both of their top-10 picks (currently selections seven and eight) for Petracca. That will be the nub of the deal that gets done, and there will be some shuffling of other picks. The Suns still have picks 15, 18, 29, 36 and 52, with more potentially coming in for Connor Budarick and Brayden Fiorini, to match bids on their academy players.Jamarra Ugle-Hagan
Gold Coast’s board are being kept abreast of the club’s plans to secure Ugle-Hagan on a very tight contract with behavioural clauses that protects the club. However, there has been no time frame put on when the 23-year-old is signed. Assuming the deal proceeds, Ugle-Hagan is likely to command a token future pick at the trade table before the Bulldogs and his management discuss the financial terms of his departure, given he was contracted until 2026. There was some talk the Connor Budarick trade would be tied to Ugle-Hagan, but it appears the pick 37 the Bulldogs will gain in a pick swap with the Giants (pick 12 for picks 14 and 37) will be used in the Budarick trade. Budarick is likely to join the Dogs well before Ugle-Hagan’s deal is done.Essendon will trade for Gold Coast free agent Brayden Fiorini to avoid diluting their Sam Draper compensation (currently pick 21), but a future third-round pick is not appeasing the Suns, who would prefer something in this year’s draft to help match academy bids.
The biggest AFL trades still to happen - and where they are at
The AFL’s annual trade period is entering the home run, with deals having to be completed by Wednesday. Some superstars are still waiting to discover their fate, while lower-profile deals also hang in the balance.
Looks like separate if it happens tomorrow. JUH Wed? Board approving tomorrow?
