Number 2

Hawthorn want to be active in trade week, can we bait them to get our hands on Roughead?

In an ideal world we would keep picks 1 & 2, but what if Roughead was available?

Hawthorn wants Sandilands, or so the papers would lead us to believe, they also want a key defender. Why can’t Melbourne get involved and get a 22 year old KP forward that will help fast track the development of both Jurrah & Watts?

How’s this for a trade scenario?

Melb get: Roughead & pick 20 (Freo)

Haw get: Sandilands & pick 18 (Melb)

Freo get: Pick 2 (Melb) & Pick 25 (Haw)

Melb: In: Roughead & Pick 20.

Out: Pick 2 & Pick 18.

Haw: In: Sandilands & Pick 18.

Out: Roughead & Pick 25

Freo: In: Pick 2 & Pick 25.

Out: Sandilands & Pick 20.

Could you imagine our forward line? What defence could stop that?

HF: Bate, Watts, Jurrah

FF: Wonaeamirri, Roughead, Green

    Hawks would be the big losers in this deal. Pick No.2 is highly unlikley to be traded.

    Freo: In: Pick 2 & Pick 25.

    Out: Sandilands & Pick 20.

    He's a great player, but I can't see this happening. I think we should just hang on to pick 2 as well.

    Heard a rumour Roughead wanted out of hawthorn and is linked to melbourne because we have a great crop of rangas

    developing and he didnt wanna be left out ;)

    first Hodge, now Roughead lets try Franklin. Not happening

    exactly right summed it up in one

    can we put some realistic trades up, not trades that are imaginary;

    thats like us saying where gonna trade jack grimes or aaron davey!!please

    Far fetched. Hawthorn lose a full forward - KPF/KPB. A former pick 2. No chance.

    Beamer,

    The last I heard, Roughead was in contract negotiations with Hawthorn. In trade talk, this makes his name the icing on the trade talk cake.

    Davey & Grimes are contracted (i think), if they aren't I"d imagine that they will be attracting some trade gossip.

    I'm just throwing it out there people, why can't we ship pick two for a ready made player of Roughead's calibre? If we are able to of course.

    Even if we got Roughead we'd have to give up someone like a davey.

    Also don't forget about GC17 and West Sydney.

    would love roughy..

    ..but no chance in hell the hawks would trade him

    Roughead will never leave anyway. Remember an article not long ago saying how he 'could never play against his mates' or something to that effect.

    This has been covered HERE I think it was Number 12 or even Number 1.

    Hawthorn will NEVER be involved in a 'win win' situation with another club. They will always have to have the upper hand. They win you lose!!!

    They will be prepared to give up Simon Taylor for our number 2 pick & call it a fair deal!!!

    Gun premiership winning key forwards in their prime don't go to back to back wooden spoon teams.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
