Veteran back-up ruck Tom Campbell didn’t play at all this season but has penned another deal off the back of some excellent VFL form; continuing to serve as Max Gawn insurance. Young duo Judd McVee and Taj Woewodin remain unsigned, as interest from Western Australia remains live. His star teammate Christian Petracca is also expected to be heavily pursued by rival clubs such as Hawthorn, though he remains contracted through 2029, and the Hawks might end up landing Essendon captain Zach Merrett instead. Though Aleer has gotten more opportunities this year, he’s not a best-23 lock anyway and remains stuck behind Sam Taylor, Jack Buckley and Connor Idun in Adam Kingsley’s star-studded defence. Flanders is weighing up his options and a return to Victoria for a bigger role elsewhere after being forced to play more across half-forward this year under Damien Hardwick. That list includes Rhys Stanley, who keeps on keeping on at age 34, and his future could be tied to whether or not the Cats acquire an established ruckman on the trade market.

• After being compelled to take on a greater role at half-forward this season in Damien Hardwick’s team, Flanders is considering his future options, including a possible return to Victoria for a larger position elsewhere.
• The acquisition of either of those two stars might hinder their plans to sign Zak Butters in the next year; however, that concern will be addressed in a future trade period.
• Are there any discounts available for seniors at IntercityHotel Celle?
• To be fair, Hawthorn attempted to pressure Essendon into trading Merrett while fully understanding they would not part with a Grade A player in exchange.
• It has been reported that Nick Daicos is part of Collingwood’s strategy in pursuing a competing superstar.

How the Pies will miss out as the Blues implement three changes: Expert advice and AFL team updates for Round 19.

He’s an All-Australian ruckman, they are 7-2 this season when he’s playing. The Western Bulldogs “have absolutely no interest” in trading All-Australian ruck Tim English — according to CODE Sports reporter Jon Ralph. Greene remains unsigned beyond this season and eligible for free agency, with the star forward linked in reports to Geelong.

A ‘win’ for West Coast?

Merrett’s got to be bitterly disappointed tonight after everything that’s transpired over the last month or so. “We put a number of options to the Crows, it could have been achieved in NRL news and betting multiple ways but at the end of the day they chose to put forward the offer they chose, and it didn’t meet our needs.” Cal Twomey reports Geelong’s final offer was pick 19 and a future second-round pick, which St Kilda did not accept. “There was a conversation on day one, we offered up pick 19 straight away … from there they seemed to pivot to not trading him.”

An offer made to Fiorini was confirmed by Craig Cameron, the general manager of player talent and strategy for the Suns. The Tigers are also interested in GWS ruckman Nick Madden as they search for potential replacements for Toby Nankervis. Melbourne has been proactive in expressing their desire to acquire elite talent, including Zak Butters.

Completed trades and finalized free agency agreements for AFL in 2025.

Collingwood’s Ed Allan could be another option if the former Pick 19 was keen to explore a move back to his home state, despite a career-best 13 senior games in 2025. There has been trade speculation surrounding contracted rucking duo Luke Jackson and Sean Darcy all year — though Jackson had his exit meeting and told the club he isn’t going anywhere. Brodie is contracted at Cockburn for another season — so the club will aim to secure some handy draft capital in return. Draper would be the clear No. 1 ruck at Brisbane as a successor to Oscar McInerney, with Darcy Fort to serve as the second choice.

Rebound defender Ollie Florent had been included as part of a rejected trade offer to Carlton for Curnow, but the two clubs have now agreed a deal to send him to the Blues. The Saints haven’t commented publicly on the deal since CEO Carl Dilena’s interview on October 10, where he claimed Marshall was likely to stay at St Kilda. St Kilda ruckman Rowan Marshall requested a trade to Geelong, but couldn’t end up at the Cats as the Saints remained steadfast that they wouldn’t trade him. On Tuesday night (Hawthorn presented Essendon with a significant offer in an effort to tempt the Bombers), but as of now the Dons have held firm that he will remain at Tullamarine.

• Discussions regarding a transfer for St Kilda captain Jack Steele are still ongoing; he remains precisely the type of midfielder that Andrew McQualter’s team could gain from.
• Since Callum Wilkie opted to remain with the Saints, is there any update on whether the Dogs are pursuing another key defender?
• In the next few days (Flanders is anticipated to decide on his club for 2026), with reported interest from both Melbourne and Carlton.
• While Hawthorn is reportedly viewed as the favourite to land Humphrey should the top-10 pick request a trade at season’s end, Cleary said the Demons shouldn’t be ruled out.

Deals confirmed on the fifth day of the AFL trading period.

The 24-year-old superstar has emphatically confirmed he will be at Alberton in 2026, but beyond then, it remains to be seen. Given their light key defensive stocks (surprise remains around their lack of interest — at least publicly — in GWS’ Leek Aleer), who would bolster their depth notably if recruited. A five-year deal is on the table for uncontracted Saint Marcus Windhager — but there are no guarantees he’ll take up the enticing offer. Also without a deal at St Kilda beyond 2025 is four-game ruck Max Heath, who Melbourne could also be in the running for.

The Cats’ leader states, ‘It’s not about being cautious’ regarding Smith.

It was previously indicated that Melbourne was willing to cover approximately $,000 of Oliver’s current contract. Earlier this week (Cleary expressed his belief that Merrett would remain with the Bombers), but it now seems that Essendon has “softened” their stance. Essendon has not yet closed the door on this latest offer,” Mitch Cleary stated on Channel 7’s The Agenda Setters. The Cats are about to make one final attempt — but they are losing some hope regarding Marshall and a possible move to the Cattery.
