Read their mock trade offers below …<\/p>\n
CHARLIE CURNOW (Carlton)<\/p>\n
Scott Gullan\u2019s Brisbane offer<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m giving you a first-round pick this year and a future first rounder \u2014 two first rounders and Eric Hipwood. Done deal, sign now. (Hipwood is a) Premiership player, proven on the big stage.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lauren Wood\u2019s Gold Coast offer<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m doing my best Damien Hardwick. You want to go to Queensland, Charlie? Come to the pristine beaches of the Gold Coast … not only can I give you Ben King, we figure he\u2019s maybe going to come back to Victoria at some point anyway. You can have a second-round pick and a future first rounder.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jon Ralph\u2019s Carlton offer to Sydney<\/p>\n
\u201cIf I was Carlton, I\u2019d be looking at Sydney. I want Braeden Campbell as that half-back distributor, a first rounder this year and Ollie Florent, who let\u2019s face it, you don\u2019t play too much anyway. He is steak knives. I\u2019d look at Braeden Campbell, a first rounder and maybe they\u2019d throw in Logan McDonald.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scott Gullan\u2019s Geelong offer<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat about Geelong? He loves Torquay. I\u2019ll give you Ollie Henry, Jhye Clark, who was a first-round pick and improving, Mitch Knevitt, a good midfielder, they need depth, and a first-round pick.\u201d<\/p>\n
NASIAH WANGANEEN-MILERA (St Kilda)<\/p>\n
Jon Ralph\u2019s Port Adelaide offer<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m trying to lowball Gubby and SOS (Saints list bosses Graeme Allen and Stephen Silvagni) \u2014 and they don\u2019t really act well to that. But I am saying, what about \ufeffTodd Marshall and Miles Bergman? I know Miles said he wanted to stay. But you know what, Miles, you\u2019re probably surplus to requirements. You love Kenny more than Josh Carr. What about Marshall and Bergman? Even though Marshall is coming off an Achilles (injury).\u201d<\/p>\n
Scott Gullan\u2019s Port Adelaide offer<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ll give you Brownlow medallist Ollie Wines, Ollie Lord, Ivan Soldo as a backup to TDK (Tom De Koning) and a first-round pick.\u201d <\/p>\n

HARLEY REID (West Coast)<\/p>\n
Jon Ralph\u2019s Hawthorn offer<\/p>\n
\u201cIt just has to involve Josh Weddle, doesn\u2019t it? And Pick 10. And that\u2019s all I\u2019m offering. Speaking of steak knives, I\u2019m putting Sam Frost into the bargain. Because he might play 100 games at the Eagle … we\u2019d haggle about (adding a future first rounder) and then we\u2019d find a way to get a future second rounder.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lauren Wood\u2019s St Kilda offer<\/p>\n
\u201cHarley, not only are we throwing the big dollars, nothing infuriates me more about trade period with future first-round picks and points and this and that. Let\u2019s go \u2018straighty 180\u2019, let\u2019s just do the straight swap, I\u2019ll give you \u2018Nas\u2019 (Wanganeen-Milera, you give me Harley back. Maybe I\u2019ll throw in Jack Steele.\u201d<\/p>\n
