We haven't used a 1st round pick for 3 drafts now (2016 Hannan in 3rd, round, 2017 Spargo in 2nd round, 2018 Sparrow in 2nd round) which means we are not in a position to trade out our 1st round pick in 2019 for Langdon (we we're able to go 3 drafts in a row because we took 2x 1st in 2015 which were Clarry and Weed. 

Collingwood can give up a first round pick, so they are in the box seat at the trade table.

He would be a great fit for us, but the Collingwood FC will find a way to get this deal done.

Unless we get permission from the AFL, which other clubs have done in the recent past.

All AFL rules are subjective and flexible

    Knowing them though Moon, we’ll be the first one’s they say no to.

    It's interesting that last years Trade and Draft period,  when we were after  sMay...  So were the Pies, big time. 

    ..... Then,  the Pies mysteriously vanished from the  sMay  negotiations.  

     

    they didn't vanish they got turned down

    I don't think he is actually any good. I have watched him closely since mid last year when rumours started about him coming to Melbourne. His skills are not flash. Decision making isnt either. What do others see that i dont?

    Won’t be a first - mid second maybe early depending on his year. Zac Jones is expecting an early to mid second and you’d think Langdon would be slightly behind.

    Seconded.

    He is fast but lacks in ball use, class and doesn't hit the scoreboard enough as a small forward.

    Don’t forget, they have the trading genius in Bell. Will demand at least 3 first rounders for him, just wait

    He's not a small forward though. He is a winger that plays high half-forward and occasionally half-back.

    Doesn't get the juices flowing for me.  Strikes me as a bloke with a little more pace than our current midfield but slightly worse skills.  I'm not sure it is what we need.

    I watched him play as a small forward last year. 

    Don't know about this year. Perhaps part of the positional changes are due to the fact that he is yet to do well in any of them.

    We should target both Z Jones and Langdon to play on either wing

    Then Fritsch can play forward or back and we have a replacement for Lewis

    I know it doesn't prove anything but you can see his possession numbers and rebound 50s are higher than you'd ever expect from a small forward. I was watching him closely all season and he was up the ground as much as any of their mids.

    he's not a small forward; he's a wingman / rebounding flanker

    handy player who breaks lines and tackles well, but has a tendency to spray it of the boot

    given that we gave up second rounders for melksham and hibberd, i'd put him BELOW their value, so maybe something like straight third rounder OR our second for langdon and freo's third / fourth rounder could work?

    17 disposals to half time, at 94% DE. Very handy.

    Edit: 27 at 88% early in the last

    Ends with 32 at 90% DE.

    He played on a wing last year too.

    Yes. 32 disposals at 90% efficiency.  

    Why are people questioning his disposal quality???? 

    He is a fast skilled wingman who runs hard and tackles hard.  

    Definitely do a trade as 

    Landgon and Freo 2020 3rd Round

    for MFC 2020 1st round pick.

    Should have been part of the Hogan deal...

    Hogan and our 2018 2nd rounder (or 2019 2nd rounder) for 6 and EL would have been a good outcome.

    In: May, KK and Langdon 

    Out: Hogan and 2nd rounder

    Oh well, sai la vie!

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.
