Perfect time to trade him as his currency will never be higher. We have enough tall forwards so he can be used to help us bolster our midfield depth.

Has the versatility and athleticism to play as the Forward who can also go into the Ruck. With Interchange Caps and Subs that versatility is a pretty important. Who else do we have for that role. Mitch Clark could do it but he gives great value as a permanent forward.

No Deal.

Seriously, Jed Lamb has a brother called Sean? I love their parents.

I expect we won't be able to magic up a suitable deal for pick 2 - it needs to be youngish class midfielder with a very strong go home factor that we can attract ahead of other more successful clubs by paying double.

Normally I'd this that's too much of a long shot - but the arrival of Clark, Hogan, Viney in the 2nd round, Dawes and Roos in the past 2 years gives me a glimmer of unreasonable hope.

Pick 2 is HIGHLY likely to go!

Huge news and very surprising. Roos is backing in our young talent, and clearly doesn't rate Aish too highly.

Watch this space.

Cheers for the updates Song and co.

Wallet was talking up a trade/ pick swap with trade 2 so we still get a first rounder. Maybe the have eyes on a kid in the 10-16 pick range but can double up with another young (20-30 games) gun.

It makes sense to trade pick 2 for a player and a mid first round pick.

It's an even draft where pick 2 could be just as good as pick 10-16

Wallace- "With pick 2 you would expect melbourne would get a star, or a star on the rise."
Barret- "Plus a pick back as well, most likely another clubs first rounder."
- "It sounded like the MFC have already planned who they will target and have set the wheels in motion.

You'd have to imagine it'd be a contracted player." (paraphrasing)

Just worries me whenever Barret opens his mouth, noting ever good really comes out.

Great to hear

Maybe we can have a prediction thread to see who is closest to the pin

My prediction -

Melbourne trade pick 2 and 20 to West Coast for Andrew Gaff and pick 6

The feeling I got out of that interview is that we are already in fair advanced with a club or player and close to getting a deal done with pick 2. Will be interesting to see who though. I mean you wouldn't just say its highly likely we will trade pick 2 when you already haven't got someone in mind.

Anyone else get that feeling?
