2021 Trade Period Talk

Re: 2021 Trade Period Talk

Jarrod Brander has attracted the curiosity of clubs in the countdown to next month’s rookie draft.

Brander was put up for trade by West Coast, but failed to find a new home during the exchange window and was subsequently delisted by the Eagles.

A handful of clubs have enquired about the 195cm Victorian utility, who failed to secure a spot with the Eagles after being taken with pick 13 in the 2017 national draft.

GWS is understood to be one of the clubs considering Brander, among others, after a trade period in which they missed out on Rory Lobb and Luke Breust.

The Giants are keen to secure a bargain buy, with a host of names liked to the club.

Michael Gibbons, Jay Lockhart and Ben Cavarra are also understood to be options for Leon Cameron’s squad.

I can see why Cameron would want to look at one of these 2 small forwards, as Hill will leave in a year. McCartney would have seen a bit of Cavarra and Gibbons in the VFL. Would not be surprised. Why the hell did Carlton not play Gibbons in the midfield ? Pointless to ask, as they are a rabble. Given their lack of depth there.
