Former Magpie teammates reunite at Sydney while the Saints are keen to find out what the Bombers are willing to offer restricted free agent Jade Gresham.
Former Collingwood teammates Taylor Adams and Brodie Grundy will be reunited in Sydney in 2024 after the pair were both traded to the Swans on Wednesday.telling the Magpies on Sunday he wanted to be tradedThe former vice captain who just turned 30 was due to be paid about $650,000 next year in the final, back-ended year of his contract.
Melbourne, who admitted the idea to play All-Australian ruckmen Grundy and Max Gawn in tandem did not work, received pick 46 and, more importantly, a future second round pick for the 29-year-old. Adams and Grundy played together at Collingwood from 2014 to 2022 with Adams’ first game at the Magpies being Grundy’s eighth career game. Adams played as an on-baller alongside Grundy for the bulk of the pair’s career, and they are good friends.
The Kangaroos were keen to trade out those future end of round one picks as the AFL said the assistance package they received would be reviewed at the end of next season. The Bombers want to add Gresham to their two free agent acquisitions Ben McKay and Todd Goldstein without using any of the draft capital they have as they look to add young talent to their list while remaining competitive.St Kilda football manager David Misson made it clear on SEN the club would match the offer if the compensation did not fall after their first draft pick, which currently sits at pick 13, while the Bombers are equally adamant they won’t entertain a trade.
