NAB AFL Draft selection numbers are indicative to the end of trade week only. Gold Coast draft compensation selections do not yet have a number assigned to them. Numbers indicate only where selections may be placed if no compensation selections are activated.
ADELAIDETrades completed: Richard Tambling (Richmond) for Adelaide's end-of-first round compensation for losing Nathan Bock, and a third-round NAB AFL Draft selection (No.50). Sam Jacobs (Carlton) for Adelaide's second-round draft selection (No.33) and fourth-round draft selection (No.67).
What they said: "It wasn't what we wanted for Griffin considering what we gave up for Jacobs. He's a similar player; Jacobs is three years younger but we looked on Jonathon Griffin's situation a little bit differently because he was going back on compassionate reasons basically, and we are a compassionate club." - Matt Rendell, recruiting manager.
BRISBANE LIONS
Trades completed: Gold Coast's first (No.5 and No.25) and second-round (No.27) draft selections for the Lions' end of first round compensation for Jared Brennan and a first-round selection (No.10). Rohan Bewick (Gold Coast pre-listed) for the Lions' third-round selection (No.48). End of first round Gold Coast draft compensation from Bulldogs for Justin Sherman.
What they said: "Being able to secure pick No.5 proved a significant upgrade for us. There will be some elite talent among the early selections this year and we were determined to push up into the early bracket to be certain of drafting one of those players," - Rob Kerr, national talent manager.
CARLTON
Trades completed: Andrew Collins (Richmond) for Shaun Grigg. Second-round draft selection (No.33) and fourth-round selection (No.67) for Sam Jacobs. Jeremy Laidler (Geelong) and second-round selection (No.41) for second-round selection (No.36) and third-round NAB AFL Draft selection (No.53).
What they said: "We tested the water a little bit there with [Walker] but all along we thought that if something wasn't done to our satisfaction we'd keep Andrew. He's played 19 games this year and we really see that he could really add some value to our list next year." -Brett Ratten, senior coach.
COLLINGWOOD
Trades completed: Andrew Krakouer, Jonathon Ceglar and picks 55, 78 and 95 for pick 25. Chris Tarrant (Fremantle) and pick 44 to Fremantle for picks 43 and 55.
What they said: "We're still negotiating [and] we're confident that'll be done, as is all parties." -Geoff Walsh, football manager, on Cloke's contract situation.
ESSENDON
Trades completed: None.
What they said: "We chased a lot of the better midfielders in the competition but they all signed with their clubs. The other thing was that [new coach James Hird] really excited the group of players and they all wanted to stay and be part of something exciting. We went down that path of signing up all the players and we think not having another trade is not necessarily a bad thing. Unfortunately we couldn't get [Houli's] deal done. I thought we put a fairly reasonable case forward and at the end of the day, we couldn't get the deal done." - Adrian Dodoro, national recruiting manager.
FREMANTLE
Trades completed: Received Peter Faulks (Gold Coast pre-listed) and Gold Coast's fourth-round draft selection (No.61) for pick 55. Received Tendai Mzungu and second-round draft selection (No.44) from Gold Coast for second-round draft selection (No.38 overall). Received second-round draft selection (No.43) and third-round selection (No.55) for Chris Tarrant and third-round draft selection (No.44). Received Jonathon Griffin (Adelaide) for fourth-round selection (No.61).
What they said: "We were really keen to get hold of Collingwood's 43 which we were able to do. We wish Chris all the best; he's had four years at our footy club and we all know the way he's played over the last couple of years and we think he'll be an asset to Collingwood." -Chris Bond, football manager.
GEELONG
Trades completed: The Western Bulldogs' third-round draft selection (No.57) for Nathan Djerrkura. Gold Coast's first-round draft selection 15 for mid-first round Gary Ablett compensation pick. Received second-round draft selection (No.36) and third-round selection (No.53) from Carlton for Jeremy Laidler and second-round draft selection (No.41).
What they said: "Obviously we'd much rather keep Jeremy but he was keen to go and could see some opportunities. We thought rather than lose him later we probably should look after him a little bit by talking to Carlton. We'd rather keep him, but that's the way it is." -Neil Balme, football manager.
HAWTHORN
Trades completed: David Hale (North Melbourne) and third-round draft selection (No.52) for Hawthorn's end-of-first-round compensation pick for losing Campbell Brown to Gold Coast, and a fourth-round draft selection (71). Kyle Cheney (Melbourne) and a fourth-round selection (No.66) for a third-round selection (No.52).
What they said: "With Campbell Brown going north we were looking for another hard-bodied defender and we think Kyle can deliver that. [The Hill deal] was disappointing, no doubt. We made our intentions clear and in the end we did offer our second-round draft selection (No.37) which they had requested and even added a fourth-round pick to that in the last couple of hours, but they declined to accept the deal, which is their prerogative." -Chris Pelchen, general manager of personnel and strategy.
MELBOURNE
Trades completed: Third-round selection (No.52) for Kyle Cheney and a fourth-round NAB AFL Draft selection (No.66).
What they said: "We were always, over the last couple of years, going to use the draft as our main method of getting players in and it's fair to say that Kyle [Cheney] probably had a few players competing for his position, so we thought it would be a benefit for him and a benefit for us. It was a win-win so we were more than happy to do it." - Tim Harrington, football manager.
NORTH MELBOURNE
Trades completed: Hawthorn's end-of-first-round pick (received as compensation for Campbell Brown) and a fourth-round selection (No.71) for David Hale (North Melbourne) and a third-round selection (No.52). Cameron Richardson (pre-listed Gold Coast) for pick 35. Ben McKinley (West Coast) for pick 86.
What they said: "Cam Richardson was a priority. Gold Coast had access to him through the pre-listing rule, so we had to work really hard to get that deal done, so we're really pleased. He's been in our backyard playing at North Ballarat and now that he's on our list we're delighted and he'll play as a 23-year-old next year and we think he can have an immediate impact."
PORT ADELAIDE
Trades completed: Simon Phillips and second-round draft selection (No.35) from Gold Coast for second-round Gold Coast draft compensation selection for losing Nathan Krakouer.
What they said: "We were happy to get Simon Phillips on our list. He is a player we would have used one of our draft picks for anyway. We've done that and retained exactly the same pick in the draft. We've given nothing away." - Peter Rohde, football operations manager.
RICHMOND
Trades completed: Adelaide's end of first round compensation selection for losing Nathan Bock to Gold Coast plus a third-round draft selection (No.50) for Richard Tambling. Carlton's Shaun Grigg for Andrew Collins.
What they said: "Essendon didn't want to accept our deal [for Houli] and we thought what they asked for was a little bit over the top. It ended up in a stalemate. He's disappointed it didn't happen today but he's confident he'll get to where he wants to be. The rules say he can't train with us before the 30th of October, so we'll look into that after then." - Craig Cameron, general manager of football.
ST KILDA
Trades completed: Nil.
What they said: No comment.
SYDNEY SWANS
Trades completed: Andrejs Everitt for Patrick Veszpremi and pick 73.
What they said: "We were really pleased to get the deal done for Andrejs. Once we got that done we were pretty quiet for the week." - Kinnear Beatson, recruiting manager.
WEST COAST
Trades completed: North Melbourne's fifth-round draft selection (No.86) for forward Ben McKinley. Confirmed father-son draftee Jacob Brennan for its last selection (No.130). Third-round Gold Coast draft compensation selection from Collingwood for third-round draft selection (No.45).
What they said: No comment was available.
WESTERN BULLDOGS
Trades completed: Justin Sherman (Brisbane Lions) for end of first round compensation pick for losing Jarrod Harbrow to Gold Coast. Patrick Veszpremi (Sydney Swans) and a fourth-round draft selection (No.73) for Andrejs Everitt. Nathan Djerrkura (Geelong) for a third-round draft selection (57). Confirmed father-son draftees Mitch Wallis (No.22) and Tom Liberatore (40).
What they said: "We had a plan and we've been able to bring in three players, plus the two father-sons, so it's been a good week in terms of our recruits. From the outset we said we'd be aggressive in this period. We felt it was the right time to go hard at some younger players off other lists who perhaps weren't getting opportunities. We believe that we've got a very exciting group and we're pleased with how the week has panned out." - James Fantasia, football manager.
