What is the opening banter and context for this Trade Bell episode?
Whiteley on SEN. The most thrilling sound in football. The trade bell for
Vanguard.
When did
you last compare your super? Sam Edmund, welcome. Boy, that's some colourful language for the bell, isn't it? Have you upset a few? There's some text coming through here. This might be a nice little moment for you to take a breather. It's grand
final week,
people.
It's Grand Final Week.
Feel the
joy.
There's some firm feedback coming from you. Yeah, yeah. Off the text. There's a degree
of nastiness.
Big
hearing tonight.
Yeah,
yeah. Which owes to other things. In the past, I would have felt really confident. with the phrase, what's happening at the Pullman Hotel? It just sort of sends a vague shiver.
Why is the Pullman Hotel being called the centre of the football world this week?
No, I know. What's happening at the Pullman? It's like when you're looking for a car and you've got a car in mind and then suddenly you see it everywhere on the road, that particular brand of car. It's like the centre of the football world appears to be this hotel. So, yeah, the clubs are sitting down there this morning to sort through the latest list management conversations and machinations, Gerard. Now, That's happening now. Now, the last time they did this a couple of weeks ago, the clubs, all sorts of things emerged. This was Lockie Whitfield and Harry Himmelberg among them being floated by, obviously, GWS. By the way, Lockie Whitfield, still no update on him. He couldn't call it at the moment. The ball's in the court of the other clubs at the moment, but if a deal...
does manifest itself or present, and that's something that could definitely take place. And just while we're up on the subject of conversation, so Sydney's last day for exits is tomorrow. Hawthorne's is coming up too, either tomorrow or Thursday. So we might get some clarity on those two teams at the pointy end as well. Obviously, there's intrigue over Joel Amati. Not sure what happens at his exit meeting, if anything. And there is the possibility, the Swans have left the door ajar this morning. There is the possibility that the five players who have been banned, funnily enough, for that hotel series of allegations do come back before their teammates break for the year. So the Swans have left the door ajar for that happening before the players leave for the year.
Um,
What are the latest list‑management moves for GWS, Sydney and Hawthorn?
And that would involve obviously coming face to face with their teammates. Again, we know they've stayed in touch and addressing the wider playing group. So we'll see how that pans out from a Sydney point of view. And then the Hawks have had Ben King at the VFL Grand Final over the weekend as well with his brother Max watching Box Hill win that premiership. So Hawthorne now with their season done, turn their attention fully to acquiring Ben and also Zach Merritt as we know.
Jadon Short was yours from the outset. This has grown from a hint to happening.
Yeah, we discussed him more than a week ago. We did link him to Collingwood. Now, the Pies do have an interest in Short, and that's something that's been driven by the coach of Collingwood, Craig McRae, as much as anyone at the Pies. But what became clear yesterday, Gerard, was that this is Jadon Short wanting a fresh start. As opposed to the Tigers turning their list over. So this is what we were unsure of. But now we can say that Jadon Short's grown increasingly unhappy with his role at Richmond, the way he's used at Richmond, how often he's used, and just the simple parameters around how he's allowed to play the game at the Tigers under this coaching structure. So young group. And I think he might even be a little concerned that if he lets this play out,
Over the course of the next two years that he's contracted, the coach might look to go past him sooner rather than later, which you see in developing groups. So 30 years of age, looking to jump now for a new lease on life and to potentially prolong his career at a different club. So you can see how it makes sense. Collingwood aren't on their own in their interest. You'd say they're definitely most likely, though. And what Richmond would be willing to accept in a trade, if anything, is the unanswerable question at the moment.
