A CLUB-BY-CLUB GUIDE TO ALL OF THE 2017 AFL TRADES:

Adelaide:

In: Bryce Gibbs (Carlton), Sam Gibson (North Melbourne)

Out: Jake Lever (Melbourne), Charlie Cameron (Brisbane), Harrison Wigg (Gold Coast)

Draft order: 12, 39, 77, 109

They say: "We're bringing in two people of high character who have got durability. They will help us get better." - List manager Justin Reid.

We say: Could Gibbs be the man to lift Adelaide from grand final despair to glory? The Crows would want to hope so after giving up two first-round picks for him. Lever and Cameron are big losses but the Crows held on long enough to be tidily compensated.

Brisbane:

In: Charlie Cameron (Adelaide), Luke Hodge (Hawthorn)

Out: Tom Rockliff (Port Adelaide), Josh Schache (Western Bulldogs)

Draft order: 1, 15, 18, 40, 44, 52, 93

They say: "We've protected our top end talent again, got Charlie (Cameron) in which is great for him and for us. We're really happy with the dealing overall." - Football boss David Noble.

We say: The Lions did well to snare homesick livewire Cameron and barely gave up anything for Hawks champion Hodge. Fair to say Chris Fagan's appointment as coach is already paying dividends.

Carlton:

In: Matt Kennedy (Greater Western Sydney), Darcy Lang (Geelong), Matthew Lobbe (Port Adelaide)

Out: Bryce Gibbs (Adelaide)

Draft order: 3, 10, 30, 73

They say: "We have brought exciting talent in which strengthens our midfield, while also furthering our position heading into the 2017 national draft which is important as a young side continuing to build its depth." - List manager Stephen Silvagni.

We say: The Gibbs trade will undoubtedly hurt in the short-term. But you've got to hand it to list guru Stephen Silvagni - two early first-round draft picks and three ready-made recruits is a very good bounty for a rebuilding side.

Collingwood:

In: Sam Murray (Sydney)

Out: N/A

Draft order: 6, 38, 56, 61, 80, 98

They say: "(Sam) Murray's leg speed and ability to break the lines from defence will make him a key asset in the club's future plans." - List manager Derek Hine.

We say: You know it's been a flat trade period when the highlight is recruiting a rookie who is yet to play a senior game. Very little activity from a side that can't afford to be too static if they want to make it back into the finals.

Essendon:

In: Jake Stringer (Western Bulldogs), Devon Smith (Greater Western Sydney), Adam Saad (Gold Coast)

Out: N/A

Draft Order: 48, 67, 85, 103

They say: "We're extremely happy and really excited with Jake (Stringer) .. it caps off a marvellous trade period for the club to get three high-quality players." - List manager Adrian Dodoro.

We say: A very productive fortnight for a side once considered a nightmare to deal with at the trade table. Stringer is somewhat of a risky pick but has enormous potential, and the Bombers got him for a good price.
