Do Eagles still get Kelly. Be funny af if the cats traded him to Freo after his manager basically said he doesn’t want to go there

Ha yep they did, after everyone ran with it. The link on the original was broken so they're probably just re doing it.

CONTRACTED defender Marcus Adams has officially informed the Western Bulldogs he wants to be traded to Brisbane ahead of Monday's opening of the NAB AFL Trade Period.

Mustn't be that homesick

Would be interesting if he is locked into our 22 or not (providing a deal gets done). Andrews, Gardiner, Withergoat, Hodge, Rich, Walker was looking pretty good. Might be fighting with Walker for that last spot.

Any details on how long Gaff has signed for and $$$?

Looking like Lobb might be opting for Freo

Always need more than 6 starting type defenders anyway so Adams should fit in well, and Hodge won't be around much longer anyway

Geelong won't trade Kelly unless they get a Top 10 Pick

Now that Gaff has committed, I'm happy to wait 12 months and get Kelly for chips next year :)

Yeah i meant just for next year. Presume they'll throw mcstay fwd as well.

West Coast’s offer to Gaff is believed to be a six or seven year contract in the range of $900,000 a season.

Not sure whether we need him as Skinner, Cox and Nick Robbo fair back up. Payne as well and I like the look of Coleman if we land him with a late pick. Ballandeen can also play both forward or back. One thing for certain competition for spots will be on for the first time for a number of years. So trade period will be interesting.
