WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - DOM TYSON

[ILLDieADemon 804]

This guy will be better then Tom Scully. Very Happy with this trade

[Cheesy D. Pun 1,765]

Good stuff. Really excited about the season ahead.

[Little Goffy 14,645]

The difference between 2 and 9 in this draft is incremental - we will still get a serious quality mid or HBF.

Giving up that margin and pick 20 to get a definite top-5 quality kid in exactly the role we need.

A no-brainer, absolutely a win.

I can't believe how hard some people work to make anything look bad.

Not that that is much of an achievement, but he already is. He's just had injuries to deal with.

Happy with this trade. Hopefully he's over the injury woes, we pick a gun with 9 and suddenly we have half a midfield.

[dazzledavey36 55,360]

I come home from work to find this!

Absolutely brilliant MFC! Welcome Dom! will be a genuine star for us. im still shocked we got this bloke. will have better careers then Kelly and Aish.

Be back in 10...

I presume that you are including Jones and Viney somewhere?

[DemonOX 8,801]

Its good we are getting midfielders but is anyone a little concerned that the two we have got have been or are injury prone?

This is my main worry is that they won't get on the park much.

Does anyone know their current injury status?

I don't see that it adds anything to discuss whether GWS or we got the better deal. We have different needs and there are a lot of imponderables where only time will tell relative values. The question is, is it right for us now.

Damo Barrett at it again saying he is not sure about Dom for pick 2 and if he is right for Melbourne.. what a [censored] someone please ring him up and abuse the heck out of this fool..!

Paul Roos must be questioning if he's in the right caper after hearing that.

TysON very nice

[Forest Demon 4,681]

Lol. Does Damien Barrett genuinely think he knows more about judging football talent than Paul Roos. Wait, don't bother answering that.

If you fast forward to Round 1, I'd be backing Dom Tyson and a potential pick 9 player like Matt Crouch to give you better production than either Aish or Kelly....If that's you mean by now?

its amazing isnt it

Damian Maggot questioning Paul Roos and Todd Viney

What an absolute [censored] he is

[DeeSpencer 26,083]

Terry Wallace talking some rubbish about Tyson being there 7th best midfielder and therefore him not getting game time going forward. Yet why are they getting pick 2?

Not to mention modern teams need 12 midfield types.

By the way I'd say Shiel, Whitfield, Treloar and Ward are the only 4 better. And Whitfield and Treloar are more outside types.

Greene, Scully, Devon Smith, Coniglio, O'Rourke can't say any of those are any better than Tyson right now. Of course Adams is leaving as well.

AFL website stream is having problems, you have to instead use the AFL app to listen to trade radio

[dazzledavey36 55,360]

Does anyone know if we ended up getting pick 53?

Trade tracker has us only getting pick 9 but the MFC website has 9 and 53.

I guess they just forgot.

[Born to Run 204]

Would Dom have been a top 10 pick in this years draft with the benefit of 2 years development at AFL level.

If the answer is yes, we have got two top ten players for Pick 2 which is a great get.

The difficulty in getting picks right and the risk of getting it wrong has forced our hand to diversify a little. I am hopeful that the diversification strategy yields a great result on both fronts due to the eveness of the draft in the top 9 picks.

I am happy with the strategy, lets hope the sensible option pays divedends for us!

not sure if anyone has posted. liking this:

Seems to be reported everywhere.else. Presume it's a trade tracker mistake. Pick 53 will be important for us if we have 3 picks in the draft which I'd say we need at least.
