Overview

• Reporting from Nine’s Footy Furnace indicates Gold Coast has elevated a Christian Petracca and Jamarra Ugle-Hagan package above Charlie Curnow as its primary trade pursuit.
• Both Petracca and Ugle-Hagan recently met with the Suns as the club steps up its recruitment push, according to The Sporting News.
• Melbourne, Carlton and Collingwood are pursuing 21-year-old Bailey Humphrey, yet Gold Coast insists he will not be included in any Petracca deal and notes he is contracted until 2028.
• Humphrey said he is happy at the Suns for now and acknowledged his manager has flagged outside interest, reinforcing that no direct approach has reached him.
• Suns midfielder Sam Flanders is seeking a move and is unlikely to nominate Melbourne, while Carlton’s Curnow remains contracted through 2029 with Sydney and Geelong linked by reports.
