    I read Ollie, Wilbur and Charlie are all managed by the same company

    That suggests the conversations may not have been as brutal as they appear

      I read that and thought that makes so much sense.

        Player managers are big players in getting trades done. Sure does help if players are in the same camp. Managers also put a lot of pressure on clubs to agree to the deal they've worked out. Clubs need to be wary of pissing off the key managers or clubs will find dealings more difficult in future,

        I see Tarryn Thomas has been cleared by the AFL to resume playing - that's if any club is willing to take him on. Reckon GWS and Geelong will consider it, they have a history of giving chances to bad boys but TT is really bad, particularly when you have an AFLW team to consider

            I think it's no coincidence that Florent and Hayward have been bundled together being very close mates, to entice their move in the deal.

            If the Curnow deal is agreed upon, wonder if club is looking at using pick 22 as Academy matching points, target another player or on draft night. The former seems most likely but it may also dpened on what we get for Buller (3rd rounder seems unders to me in such a weak draft).

            Conspiracy theories that some of these big trades have already been agreed upon, but not to be officially announced till just before the deadline tomorrow, to help boost Fox Footy ratings.

              It is uncertain whether Hayward and Ollie want to go

              what an escarpment to traverse tomorrow

              especially if it is a hard no from the Blues

              welcome back Hayward and Olllie

              we love u saids the club and coaching department lol

                That 22 could be what swans need to split into more picks for other use with another club

                ?

                they might not want the pick 22 for one draft pick

                  Florent is surplus for our needs and probably on the edge of our best 22.
                  I think we will miss Hayward. But hopefully Dattoli can take that extra step. He is a bit shorter and probably doesn’t have the marking in him but will get more opportunities now that Hayward is likely out.

                    Agree here

                    Curnow is better than Haywood and other's get a chance to step up if he goes

                    I rate Florent but he is surplus to this coach so no value in this

                    5yr deals taking both of them to 32 is probably not great either, again, especially when one is on the outer

                    The picks are a bit irrelevant if we can still land our Academy
