2026/2027 Draft & Trade Periods

[Jirik13]

' pillar of community', haha.

Get a new manager, Humphrey. This one is no good.

 

[Choppers]

But....but....but....he's a loyal bloke!

 

[Young_Guns]

Yeah, I am not shocked that there has been a complete lack of communication about this situation to the club based on that.

 

[Gorringe Can Go Jump]

Please js trade this bozo, We could get Trac and a F1 for him

 

[Iva Bigun]

You think we’ll buckle at 2 first?

If we do then they should just shut us down right now.

If we’re going to give up two top 10 picks for a 30-year-old Petrarca but giveaway Bailey for two first rounders likely to be in the 20s at 21 years of age we deserve to be shut down

The only way we should entertain trading him as if we get an absolute gun back. Not speculative picks not fringe players, it has to be an absolute gun or GAGF

We are likely to cement our credentials as a final contender next year, this should mean that other high-quality players are interested in jumping on board. Dimma needs to be in the ears of any and all of these players to see how a deal can be struck for 2026.

 

[Gorringe Can Go Jump]

Doesn’t matter who his manager is… He wants to leave, He WILL leave. I don’t understand why we keep him and waste time developing him, Lombard is right there!

We need a gun back

 

[Maybe Tomorrow]

That doesn't sound 100% he's leaving to me. Whether he "adapts" is an interesting phrase.

Also confirms the club where not told he was meeting teams. I'm still wondering if this bloke was told.

Listen to the whole thing, Probably just not trying to tank his value and his perception in suns fans eyes

I wasn’t of that opinion. But I am now. Trade him to Essendon. This year or next years picks don’t matter draft picks will be gold for next year.

Can always bring in another established player in 12 months time if someone like Rogers hasn’t made himself a regular by the end of year 3

Trac and Their F1, that’s a a top 5 pick and then we can package 7/15 off to a bottom 6 club for another future first. That gives us 2 top 6 picks as well as our first, we ain’t getting anything better than that next year

You will apologise to Humphrey when he will get us to Grandfinal next year

You mean Lombard who really showed nothing so far? Yes, he missed half year but appears long way off.

We don't need picks now. We can target players and get great return on Humphrey next year.

As his manager said, Humphrey loves it on GC and loves players. No issues, move on. Revisit in 12 months.

Nah he is gone for sure listening to the whole thing. Kept bringing up how much of a "pillar of the family" Humphrey is. A big load of shit by a coward and his snake manager.

 

[kreglze]

Come back in 12 months, will still get some good value then.

 

[Gorringe Can Go Jump]

You will apologise to Humphrey when he will get us to Grandfinal next year .

Happy to do this… I think he has max value this year with getting futures, there’s a clear bottom 6 next year we should target those picks and have a huge war chest next year. I’m sure we’ll be able to persuade players better if they know what we’ve got to play with in regards to a trade and not “Oh if we get a really good deal on Humphrey we should be able to get you”

 

[rusted on]

Give me a break. "Piller of the community" is the most piss weak excuse I have ever heard. If a 21-year-old footy player is best the town of Moe has got there in trouble. I think we hold him for a year, get our ducks lined up and swap him for a gun next year.

Don’t sleep on Leo, better prospect than Humphrey was in his draft year

Tbf to the Average Moe punter an AFL listed football would be like their Mansa Musa

Humphrey can help us significantly on the field next year. I don't think he will sulk. Dimma does not make all those moves for future. It's now.

Next year we will have our 2026 first 2027 first and 2028 first, before we even do anything with Humphrey. We can already sell the dream.

 

[Jirik13]

That's the problem. Prospect. We need players to perform now. Who cares if Humphrey leaves next year. We should get great return and will have more time to target players.

Or should we also let go Rogers, Walter now because they are not willing to re-sign apparently?

Players movement landscape is changing. Time to adjust. Dimma is all in.

27 and 28 picks are going to be worth hot ass though, keep that in mind

 

[TheSunGod]

If he keeps on his current trajectory he’s worth 2 top ten picks or a gun player and first rounder. Hold him for at least another year, reassess the market. Hopefully he matures a bit and realises Trac coming on board does not jeopardise his spot in the team.

 

[RowellAnderson12]

He just wants to get on the piss with his mates

Something we are rescuing JUH from

If we are in a GF or top 4 maybe he will "adapt" quickly to resigning
