AFL: We’re almost at the halfway point of the trade period - and there are plenty of prospective deals that need to be done.
Some of the biggest names who could potentially shift clubs remain in limbo, with Christian Petracca, Zach Merrett, Clayton Oliver, Charlie Curnow, Rowan Marshall all waiting to have their fate determined.
And from a WA point of view - the Eagles may be looking to get a trade done for Richmond’s Tylar Young, as well as considering their options for wantaway pair Liam Ryan and Campbell Chesser.

Ugle-Hagan’s Suns medical
There’s plenty of eyes on what Gold Coast are up to today, with Suns talent manager Craig Cameron providing an update on two prime movers.
Jamarra Ugle-Hagan is undergoing a medical examination at the Queensland club today as he scopes out a potential move from the Bulldogs.
“We were looking to see someone who was going to make a commitment to getting himself back to a position where he could play consistent football,” Cameron said on Trade Radio.
The Suns have also doubled down on their claims that Bailey Humphrey won’t be shipped under any circumstances.
Humphrey last night posted photos on Instagram with the caption “I’M FROM MOE” - a town about 130km east of Melbourne - with the soundtrack of ‘Take Me Home, Country Roads’.
