As potential deals involving Adam Treloar and Josh Dunkley dominate discussion, Jake Niall and Peter Ryan dissect the latest developments. Is Magpie Tom Phillips a 'good fit' for a Hawthorn team without Isaac Smith? St Kilda, now a clear 'destination club', have secured former Bomber Shaun McKernan, confirming their status as the 'new darlings' of AFL trades. And with so many eyes glued to political developments in the United States, it's true that mis-truths in politics are, for the time being anyway, exceeding those ordinarily seen during the trade period.
