OK we may not be big players come trade time, but there does seem to be some interest in who is moving where.

With the Primus saga, SA journos are reporting Boak and Chaplin have both said they'll be elsewhere next season.

Obviously the Cloke saga is ongoing.

Any other likely moves or players being chased?

Rumours suggest that Chaplin is likely headed to Richmond.

What has happened to Steven Salopek? He was playing SANFL Reserves earlier this year...seemed a pretty huge drop.

Salopek left Glenelg to go to Port Adelaide Magpies. His body is shot. Will be de-listed.

Disappointing. He was meant to be quite a talent when he was drafted, top 5 pick? Ah well.

Going to be hard with the Bombers not having a first round pick.

Yep. Is a good bloke too. Having all sorts of needles etc to get him thru every week. Has a detachable shoulder and and ankle made of jelly.

Freo's interest in Gumbleton may play a part here.

You're not seriously suggesting Freo would part with a first rounder for Gumbleton, are you?

Freo would be keener at having a crack at Hogan with mini draft pick 2

Williamstown may. :)

Good VFL player and that's about it.

Would be no better than handy at best - I'm sure we can find kids who are "borderline up to it" on our own

Funny, 'ankle of jelly' Made me spit cornflakes on my keyboard:D

Seriously though, must be really hard on these blokes if they don't make it to the AFL, as some of these injuries may hamper you for life.
Nobody cares how well you can walk or run after you are de-listed.
