Trade Rumours 2025

Woofers-what do you reckon is earliest Will is likely to be bid on through to most likely bid range and by which clubs?

Knowing clubs like the bombers exist they will do it early just to say we got him first like they did with Luol .
Also the Saints can be cheeky that way too.

The Bombers at least contacted us before they selected Lual giving us the chance to make a deal if wanted to.
Ironically Lual is currently on hold with the Bombers who haven't offered him a deal yet.

Apparently Adelaide is going to have another go at trading for Ryley Sanders

No. Aleer is a 3rd round pick at best. Huge pass on Aleer from me.

How do you come to that? He was a first round pick and has been behind some guns

He must be unhappy. This sucks.

Surely we can get Butts out of this and perhaps more.

From what the club said he isn’t going anywhere for a long time .

He lives with Treloar too so not sure what's happening.

We did get Freijah in the next pick so we will call
it a huge win if we weren’t picking Lual in that pick .

Lual was a HBF when he played at Footscray, but I have only seen him play forward with the Bombers. Would we look at him as a rookie if Essendon don't offer him a contract?

First Dunkley, now Sanders, double agent Treloar?

Perhaps even a SSP spot.

Elijah Hollands anyone? Great article in the age about his alcohol fight over the past few years. Very good half forward at his best and would fit in well in our side with his skill. Maybe the article is a bit of a puff piece but he clearly has football talent. Seems no one else wants him which is not a great sign. Thoughts?

The club needs to get this right, we need to stop putting our head in the sand thinking everything will be okay when they come out of contract. We need to be completely realistic about whether he is staying long term and if not do what we can to cash in now.

50/50 whether his value tanks next year with no clear spot in the 22 for him. If he requests a trade next year and we get boned im done with Sam power. We CANNOT have this situation again with a first rounder, and one that we paid so much for.

Id be asking Sanders for a commitment now, not long term but at least a year or 2 extension. Otherwise see what we can get for him this year.

its a very delicate situation but we’ve been on the wrong end of these ones for a few years now, if we **** this one up, again, Power is done in my books.

What do you think we will get this year? It'll be a pick in the teens at best, which is dumb as he is tracking well for the kind of player he is, but that's how it goes.

If he has a middling year next year we will probably get a pick in the 20s worst case should he choose to leave.

The only upside to moving him now would be to substitute in as a "first rounder" in a trade to get Butters.
