why would the dees swap our 3rd round pick for their 3rd round in the deal? shouldnt they give us pick 11 and their 3rd round pick for say our 4th round pick and brock? he was pick 5 in his year!

Makes no difference where Brock was picked. Farren Ray was picked one before him at no.4 in the same year, but the Bulldogs traded him(& pick 48) last year, for pick 31.

Pick 11 is a fair result for us if this isn't BS.

Here we are people:

The Melbourne Football Club wishes to advise that player Brock McLean has requested a trade and will be leaving the Club.

McLean met with Club officials on Monday morning to confirm his decision.

Melbourne has reached an in principle agreement with the Carlton Football Club for their first choice (selection 11 overall) in this year’s National Draft. This agreement is subject to the finalisation of paperwork during Trade Week, commencing Monday 5 October 2009, and the completion of medical screenings.

wow...there you go

It seems that it came from Brock which is very dissapointing...I can't sat "I told you so" because I was as unsure about this rumour as everybody else, however, I think the other bloke deserves an apology

Is Healy an official source now? I thought he was a Journo.

But seriously, I really hope it's not true. I think Brock still has a lot to offer to the club and will be better for an injury-free preseason.

They said for pick 11. to go to Carlton

Like to know if its true.

bit of a shock

Hardly the end of the world, though it's frustrating that players we wish to keep want to leave.

Does this strengthen our position in getting Burgoyne?

I have heard McLean to Carlton for pick 11...

Any truth behind this? Am I the only person to have heard this...

PS (heard from a family member who got it from a non credible source as far as i know)

I suppose it would make sense with family connections to the club but do we give him his 10 grand back?

well done mate.

I would have to say that you may be correct - strengthen our position in getting Burgoyne.

Holy shitter Batman!

Oh well! Would have liked to seen him stay but it is of his own request to be traded. Pick 11 should bring a quality key forward.

I'm actually fine with this.

Never been a fan of Brock. It's interesting that people thought he was in real captaincy contention and he has chosen to leave the club.

Wonder how much they've offered him.

Tell me Sylvia is close to signing.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
