    Post your tired, your poor, your injured spud-like masses, yearning to breathe free - and see if some sucker will take them off your hands.

    Given I've bid farewell to Messers Ramsden and Higgins already, I'll add some names to the trading block here.

    J Kelly (GWS M)
    J Amiss (Freo F)
    M Knevitt (Geel M)
    T Sims (Rich F)

    That'll maybe do for now. A note that Mr Kelly is currently injured (like a number of my players it seems - currently sticky-taping Mark Keane's leg back together).

    Onwards we go.

    Cradle Mountain don’t plan on acquiring any players before the PSD and the focus is getting the list down to 22 players before the draft. The half dozen players likely to be cut are:

    Wayne Milera, Ade (D)
    Jake Lever, Mel (D)
    Tom McDonald, Mel (D)
    Brennan Cox, Fre (D)
    Jamie Cripps, WCE (F)
    Tyler Sonsie, Ric [F/M]

    Each of the players listed above are available in exchange for an upgraded 2026 PSD pick.

    Oh yes, of course. Perennially looking for a ruck. So there's that too :)

    Hi all, speaking of fanciful notions, I've just been yarning with that KI Guy who has offered me the custodianship of the formally known Dunsborough Dung Beetles. They look like a pretty good squad so I'm definitely keen, it will be great to be part of the ORFFA comp so please let me know if that's approved and I will jump in and start my delists. I'd also like to rename the side to the Shark Bay Tigersharks if that's OK?

    As long as you stay out of Vic/Tas (for State of Origin purposes), you can be whatever and wherever you want!

    Given I've delisted Amiss, Sims and Knevitt, these players can be stricken from the record (or at least the list of potential trades above!)

    Is the site running horribly slow all week for you guys too - or is this some type of Anti-Trump Tariff thingy for me ?

    Darcy Fort (yep, a ruck!!!)
    Patrick Dangerfield
    Luke Parker
    Jack Crisp
    Jeremy Howe
    Elliot Yeo

    All quality players that would improve a lot of starting sides, available for PSD picks. Eager to clear some space on the list, so you may find yourself a bargain.

    I would like to downgrade the Devils 2026 pick 13 a round or two and acquire a similar 2027 psd pick. Deal could be something like Devils trade 2026 PSD pick 13 and 2027 PSD Round 3 selection and acquire 2026 Round 3 PSD selection and 2027 late 1st round or early 2nd round PSD selection. Send me a Private Message if you are interested.

    After pick 6 I had five players that have a sash in their AFL jumper on my draft board for pick 13. I didn’t have a strong preference for any player, was just hoping that one of these players would still be available at pick 13. With the next five picks from pick 7 to pick 11 these five players were all selected (not in order), Bombers trio Dyson Sharp, Sullivan Robey and Jacob Farrow along with Tigers Sam squared, Cumming and Grlj.

    When I was on my lunch break at work I made the post that I was interested in downgrading PSD pick 13 and upgrading a 2027 PSD pick. Thanks for the prompt private messages with trade suggestions re pick 13 this afternoon. I had a fair gap from the sash quintet to the next group on my draft board so it was great to have the flexibility to trade future year picks. Sorry about slowing down the momentum of the draft. It was good that @JC was able to use the Battlers newly acquired pick 13 to select Josh Lindsay and @That KI Guy was able to unleash DUURSZILLA!!! on the ORFFA by selecting middle Duursma brother Zane with pick 14.

    Taking a bit of a leaf out of @dmandrews book here and perhaps looking to do a pick swap involving draft picks in 2026 and 2027 PSDs.

    I'm interested in gaining a second rounder in the current 2026 PSD if anyone was interested in trading their selection.

    In return I could offer the Nuffers' 2027 PSD 2nd rounder, and either my pick 43 in this year's PSD or a similar pick in the third round in the 2027 PSD if there is likely to be a bit of a difference in the second rounders being traded between the two teams.

    Drop a line privately if there's any interest.

    On that note, I'll consider trading this next pick for a 2027 1st round PSD + depending where you are likely to finish on the ladder, a later round sweetener.

    Apologies for holding things back but a few players I wanted have been picked, if I don't get an offer that fancies me in the next few hours I'll take my pick.
    Cheers
