She loves the lovely soft floor in reception though.
Hope she steers clear of the energy drinks.
Re: Other club trade talk
Sounds like Dodoro is going to be busy. Feel sorry for Sydney & Port.
Possible Outs: Daniher (SYD), Fantasia (Port) (arguably their two best forwards)
Possible Ins: Pick/s (SYD), Powell-Pepper & Howard (Port)
Howard is a better defender. What to do with Hurley & Hooker with Francis re-signing? Or chasing Martin again? A bit of work to do to ‘win’ trade week. But if anyone can, they can.

Hope we can get Howard from under their noses.
Is it certain Howard is leaving Port?
Re: Other club trade talk
I don't understand why there's not more being made of Daniher casually requesting out of Windy Hole. A bloody DANIHER.
Yeah he's had a diabolical couple of years with injury but if the trade winds blow true Sydney must be rubbing their hands together.

A 3rd tall? He's contracted and as far as I know he hasn't requested a trade or visited clubs.
Port would need a good trade to let him go

Where has it been confirmed he's requested the trade?

Howard looks to be the key to Essendon letting Fantasia go to Port. I think it's a one club scenario. They'll probably de,no Powell-Pepper and Port's first rounder.

This might take them a decade to get out of if everyone unhappy walks. Which is fine by me. You think they’d have locked in a coach and try to sell a vision to the dwindling player numbers.

They won't have enough players left to field a team at this rate.

Maybe they turn into a cricket team. In which case, they should've fought harder to keep Alex Keath.

Wow. Papley, Martin & Betts. With picks 8 & 39 as their best two picks, Carlton have a bit of work to do to get these picks done and assuming other trades.

Betts will be a token pick with Adelaide likely to pay part of the salary
Papley will cost pick 8.
How do they get Martin? Pick 39 won't do it so future picks may have to come into it. I'm not sure that would appeal to Gold Coast. I think Essendon will be watching like a vulture perched waiting to move in.

Agree that Martin is the dicey one. If Carlton give Sydney pick 8 for Papley and Sydney give that to Essendon as part of Daniher. Then Essendon can offer Pick 8 (with something coming back) for Martin and match or exceed the salary. It might pay GCS to drag this one out for maximum return.
If Carlton are looking at other trades, it's going to be interesting how they proceed.
