Tradies
Think AFL trading only happens in October? Think again.
On Tradies, Mitch Cleary (Channel 7) and Sam McClure (Channel 9) break down the AFL player movement market all year round.
Before the ball is bounced in 2026, the trade conversation has already begun. Sam and Mitch take listeners inside the deals and decisions shaping clubs long before they’re made public.
If you want to stay ahead of the AFL player movement game, this is where it starts.
