Word is he wants to go to Geelong. That, plus I rate Hannan ahead of him.

Me too. But im thinking he's more of your wing that replaces JKH or Tyson on form while in team, pushes Jones into defence. Or covers for HF/wing for form drops or injury to our 22 next year.. and is replaced by our depth while invariably injured for hopefully only 5ish games. Maybe with concussion issues we can follow the Gus rehab model.

If geelong then no big deal, he's your cream on cake type player, dont think geelong need him or theyre fooling themselves.

 

Edit: if Rohan recaptured his best form it would be a massive win for pick 50ish or a JKH

Don't want at all, would be a downgrade on JKH


 

in honour of the cheeseboard, Rohan is as stinky for the club as a good Limburger...

Good god no! One of the worst footballers to ever reach 100 games.

Soft as they come.


Leave on same pile as Daniel Menzel and, dare I say it, Jack Watts.

Interesting player, does some fun things, not what we need.

Injury prone, that's a big no from me.

That is the major concern with him, second to his inconsistency.  Has always had enormous talent and is a freak athlete.

He isn't soft.

I'm in the minority here but I actually think he'd be an upgrade on Hannan, plus he can play down back as well.

But I'm probably not interested because we don't need more players who are 20th best on the list, we need to spend resources trying to find more quality.

We do have quite a number out of contract so maybe we replace 1 or 2 of them with a flyer on someone like Rohan but if it's going to cost anything in terms of trade or salary it's not worth it. Keep guys like JKH or Kent instead.

He does not show the same physical attributes and forward tackling pressure like Hannan.

Hannan also wins the ball and stands up in big games.

Give me Hannan, then delight, then Rohan..

I think he's faster than Hannan and a better tackler, that's why I'd want him to be a supersized version of Jeffy. Hannan's a better mark and a craftier forward. I like Mitch, but I'm also always concerned he follows a good game with a down game with minimal impact, his Eagles game was a return to the promise he showed last year and at times this year, if he can produce similar more often he'll go right up in my evaluations.

No, is often injured and has plenty of single figure possession games when he does play.

Gary Rohan is a nothing footballer.

He doesn't get much of it and doesn't do anything with it when he does. Any team with Rohan in it is effectively playing with 17 on the field.

Not sure about better tackler.. i put him in the same vein as Garlett.. sticks out one hand etc.. where's Mitch tackles and tackles with prupose and drive.

Ask any Swan supporter and they'll say Rohan is as inconsistent as they come. They're celebrating in style now that hes requested a trade back home.

In what way is he a better tackler DS? Over their careers Hannan averages more tackles per game.

Career numbers are pretty similar. I just think he's a heavier, stronger and more reliable.

Career numbers? Hannan is only 30 games into his career

Upgrade on Handgun Hannan? as the famous John McEnroe once echoed "You cannot be serious man, you cannot be serious".

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
