2026 Trade / FA Thread

[Harry O]

We really can’t afford any missteps in the next 2-3 trade and draft windows
A lot of pressure on the inexperienced O’Bree and Leppitsch.
I think all we can do is hope. And pray they are good at their job

 

[Go Woods]

And Butters and Neale.

Bullish about Neale, Butters will cost the earth.

 

[The Phantom]

And potentially Swadling

It’d be great to see Swadling get his debut on Saturday in Sp433 game.
Would be a good back piece to what will hopefully be a long career. And it would certainly show selection integrity.

 

[Roverjg]

Took us apart again on the weekend.....think he's kicked maybe one goal against us EVER.

Spot on...

 

[Go Woods]

Would love for Collingwood to pry Nate Caddy out of Essendon. Would cost a bit but would definitely be worth the cost.

Yep, he's my number one tall forward choice if there was any chance of prying him out.

Let’s be realistic. No chance of Essendon trading him to us

Speaking of things that aren’t happening. I’d love Sydney Sweeney to be waiting for me when I get home tonight!

Absolutely! I would love him too. The price would be high. If he's frustrated about being in a losing team, that would be the window to get in his ear. Next year maybe. Not sure when he's out of contract.
Keep thinking that way, we'll make it happen with our thoughts

 

[Pistol Night]

Speaking of things that aren’t happening. I’d love Sydney Sweeney to be waiting for me when I get home tonight!

I’d definitely drag my old fella through a paddock full of stinging nettles to hear her fart through a walkie talkie

 

[SchuPie]

If he were on our list, what would be your price for trading him out?
Add an extra R1 to that and that’s what Essendon will be asking for
(But I doubt they would even accept his request first a trade regardless of price)

 

[HFF]

Can this Gruzewski kid even play - or is he another Thomlinson that we talk about getting for a decade for no apparent reason?

He’s miles better than Buller….
At 21 too he has showed he can play at senior level when given the opportunities

He is a completely different player to Buller.

 

[Scodog10]

He is a completely different player to Buller.

You mean he doesn’t have a disorder that prevents him using his dukes like Buller seems to?

 

[manicpie]

I thought about him but after watching some of his highlights and the WC game, he's not the answer. I really like Pohadjski, he's the perfect mihochek replacement and impact almost right away.

 

[HFF]

He is a completely different player to Buller.

Buller I don’t see it personally.
He looks like a guy who just is lazy to compete.
Watching him last week always wrap his arms around Grundy’s head (high) is just pure lazy

It’s why I’d persist with West over him as a prospect

 

[nickyds35]

8 goals in 6 games, averages around 6 disposals.

He is a poor mans Van Rooyen. Would only go after him if we traded a pick outside 30.

 

[Chrispiesssss]

 

[legendstatus]

I guess he likes the warmer weather and playing in front 6k crowd and being a nobody in the system

 

[yeah man]

I guess he likes the warmer weather and playing in front 6k crowd and being a nobody in the system

A nobody in the system? He's their primary star key forward, he is the opposite of being a nobody in the system. We should be mindful about making 'system' jabs being supporters of a club that depends so heavily on role players and system lol

Hahaha - I was taken aback a bit by that nonsense comment you've called out too. He's a good chance to win the Coleman FFS

He’s not a Ruckman.
The last few games he’s lead, marked, kicked goals, offered fwd pressure, taken marks down the line.

None of those improvements on his early form suggest laziness.

And a Team with a Bright Future

He was brilliant against Hawthorn and then thrown to the wolves in the ruck the week after
