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

    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.

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

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
