They can give us Rance then..

Seriously, nobody from that mob could come close to the value we'd want for Tyson. He's not going anywhere.

Only deal id consider is ellis for tyson. Pretty sure we'd be paying him more money than they could

Ellis? Yuk.

They should get more creative then. Seems like every year they look at someone from our list. Its never worked out well for them either


Fair enough. Let's change this to 'very little', potentially.

BS Adam, same circumstances as Judd or Boyd leaving before free agency, they would still get a 1st round pick next year, so stop trying to valid your stupid wrong point in first place that they'd lose him for nothing.

Tigers were said to want him before we acquired him.

Having said that, I can't see us trading Tyson unless it's for an exceptional return.

 

You wouldn't give up pick 6 for Prestia? Reallllllly?

You haven't put this imbecile on ignore yet?

Does that make you feel better?


Can rest easy on Tyson for the time being. Richmond would have to put something extraordinary on the table for the club to even consider it.

Unless Tyson wants to move there... god forbid

no we don't give up P-6.

we aren't well off enough, to give away our chances on elite kids from the draft at this stage. if we 'PASS' on another Stringer, or Wines, then I'm done with footy forever.

Prestia is contracted til next year, IF we cannot tempt a trade for him this season, then we wait til 2016.

O'Meara, we should be chasing, & looking for a trade deal for him as well... but we keep P-6. Trade players, Or a mix of players, plus our 2nd Rnd pick, OK... but don't pass up a Curnow, or such.

So you think we should take a punt on a young kid in the draft instead of a proven gun?

Also I think you time int eh sport will be short if you walk the next time a draft pick goes wrong, happens all the time to all clubs, that is why taking a punt on a kid when a gun is in the offering would be stupid in the extreme.

He's contracted

Should know that means nothing Jaded


Should know that means nothing Jaded

It actually means something - it actually means a lot. It means the club holds all the cards. But if you are alluding to the fact that contracted players move - spot on.

Why in God's name would Richmond want Tyson?

Anyway, could work out okay.

Prestia to Melbourne

Tyson to Richmond

Ellis to GC

Why on Gods green earth would we trade out one of our best mids for ? Dom had a quieter year compared to '14 but if he ended up at Richmond I'd be seriously pist off.

Where the hell has this trade Tyson junk come from?

No way in hell are we interested in trading Tyson.

I think someone is yanking our chain.

Yet it is trading time and it was our own coach who said that all players were potentially trade able.

Although given the story on Hogan........not everyone. Perhaps we should not take the coaches comments too literally but it does suggest that Roos has an open mind on our list.

If you look at the Hawthorn template you can see what player attributes every coach must be seeking. .

lol. Richmond can be as 'interested' as they want.

Honestly, I love this time of year, but some of these things that come out are just plain dumb. There are so many dimwitted footy fans out there that reckon clubs bandy player names about is if they're playing cards. There is absolutely no way in the world the club would be interested in trading Tyson after the lengths it went to get him here, and I'd be surprised if Richmond even wasted their time enquiring.

well even hoges at a pinch, ernest.

if someone offered you 3 a-grade 24yo players you would at least have to consider it

Reading from the top of the thread downward, it is funny how things snowball. 'Middymalt' probably just pulled this out of his arse and now people are mentioning possible trade scenarios...

Tyson has only been at the club for a couple of years, is a very good player (had an underrated season to an extent, I think) and is contracted. Seriously, I think some of the discussion would be better spent on other potential scenarios.

Tyson won't be going anywhere.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
