Rumour Draft Rumours 2025

[MasterSamurai]

I hope hawks aren't taking Barker at 10! I just don't see it in him as much as others do tbh. Everyone looks good playing primarily on the outside receiving easy ball without an opponent at that level. It won't fly at AFL level at all. He's more likely a pick in the late 20's for mine.

 

[Sheezel2Wardlaw]

Live now, mock trades and draft.

Wha rumours is he spreading seeing as it’s the rumours thread?

 

[Roger Rogerson]

I think Krasnadamskis could be the bolter on the night

Whoever selects him will need to ask for extra time to spell his name

The draft is in one week, and awfully quiet on the rumor front. Normally Twomey has drip fed some player/club interests by now. And some more solid info. Been the most low key draft build up that I can remember.

It’s a shallow draft, future picks are highly valued and not many clubs want to trade down other than GCS so we’re not seeing as much pick movement or jostling for players.

I'm aware of that. But even then you'd think some info would be out now. Literally nothing to talk about amongst fans aside from our own mocks.

four clubs holding the top 8 picks probably has a part to play there

Back to rumours - quite possible the Bulldogs take Nairn as a round 1 bolter, and bid on Harry Kyle with our next pick.

Reckon Kyle could be bid on before your 2nd pick. Sydney would be ok with him lasting til yours though.

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Reading between the lines, I’ve got a strong hunch the Bulldogs will snap up Oskar Ainsworth - unless someone beats them to it

In his form guide, Twomey says Melbourne is looking at Nairn with their top 10 picks, and the Giants are also interested. Bulldogs might have to trade up.

The last time we were linked to a bolter was Winsor and that turned out to be accurate, so he may well be gone before the Dogs get a chance. Regardless of whether we take him or not, he does seem to be rising quickly the closer we get to the draft.

How strong is your source? I have a interest in the Jets boys

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

So carlton are moving 9 to 13 with no futures so eagles dont bid on dean at 2?

Just so tigers can bid on him at 3?

We could bid on him at 1 too............

Thats the bribe

good luck selling that to your fan base

and dean

 

[GoEaglesGoSGIO]

and dean

Every one of us would take Dean and Duursma duo....

For Carlton I suppose if they dont want Dean that is their choice

Surprised if thats the consensus view of eagles supporters but ultimately you are correct, it will be Carlton's call to match, or not

I think Carlton would just call WC bluff and let him go.

Dean is a very good talent, he isn’t worth two top 10 picks.

Expect a bid from Essendon/Melbourne which is about his range.

 

[Stamos]

All the media is saying the bid will likely come before then.

Games from WCE who want to bring in a third top 10 pick. Tigers would be nothing more than petty with their surplus of KPD. I’m not convinced.

Well, I hope you’re right, but all the draft media (AFL, The Age, Hun, Fox, ESPN) are going to with him being taken earlier.

Twomey corroborating McGowan’s Nairn to Dees call.

Seems like The Age phantom is pretty on the money.
