@WestCoastEagles Ranking in the Top 10 for Mid-Forwards in a number of key stoppage and contest metrics in a poor Richmond side in 2024 is super impressive. At 27 next season, Graham will act as a bridge between the midfield veterans like Elliot Yeo and Tim Kelly and young superstar Harley Reid.

Graham to provide some grunt.

@WestCoastEagles have filled a need in their midfield by recruiting the hard tackling 2x premiership mid-forward, having long been desperate for an effective tagging/negating option to address their perennially poor clearance differential. #AFLTrade

@CheeseTwerking @HawthornFC Definitely a win-win!

[Fill Your Boots @FillYourBootsYT]

Saints lose the Battle, Hawks win the war.

@HawthornFC have reinforced their depleted key defensive ranks with a consistent, durable and versatile soldier who looms to form an impenetrable fortress with General James Sicily and fellow incumbent Tom Barrass for Hokball. #AFLTrade

@CarltonFC To produce these numbers in his age 31 season is an indication he could get back to that level in 2025 for Michael Voss. He is likely to be deployed as the loose man in defence capable of breaking up opposition's forward forays and creating 2v1s for Weitering and Mitch McGovern.

Haynes is still in good Nick.

@CarltonFC provide a home for the resilient 211 game veteran with more to give to the Blues in their premiership window. With proven supreme aerial ability, he would provide much needed support for All-Australian Full Back Jacob Weitering. #AFLTrade

His ability to contribute equally on the defensive end and in the transition game will perfectly suit the Hokball game style and provide Sam Mitchell with more flexibility to swing Battle or Sicily forward at times to fill the Mitch Lewis-sized void up front. Amazing acquisition.

Having played in defense the past two seasons, his stats from playing as a midfielder in 2022 paint the picture of the asset he would be for the Pies in 2025 and beyond - an unassuming workhorse who complements the likes of Daicos (x2) and De Goey in coach Craig McRae's midfield.

[Fill Your Boots @FillYourBootsYT]

Pies Pay the Perryman!

@CollingwoodFC add the tough, disciplined and true Swiss army knife, capable of playing midfield, half back, lockdown defender, wing and forward. Excellent player with an all-round skillset who should play in an accountable midfield role in 2025. #AFLTrade

@Adelaide_FC Fill Your Boots legend. Gonna be an amazing pickup 🧀

@cleary_mitch About time the Eagles got nasty!

[Fill Your Boots @FillYourBootsYT]

Ranked in the Top 10 for Metres Gained and Rebound 50s in 2022 among some elite company. He would form a nice partnership with Mitch Hinge across half back and provide drive from D50 for a team that ranked 16th for Rebound 50s in 2024. Neat player with finals experience.

Can the boy from Broken Hill fix the Crows?

If Isaac Cumming can recapture his 2022 form at Adelaide, he could be one of the more underrated offseason recruits in 2025. He brings long and precise kicking coupled with an excellent ability to read the ball in the air. #AFLTrade

@traderadio A number of clubs could do with a seasoned back-up, especially Port if Soldo leaves. Solid tap ruckman who just needs a good run at it. Elite career hitout to advantage rate of 33%. For context, Gawn's is 32.2% albeit across a much larger sample size.
