Wonder if Gary Rohan is seen as gettable now given the rumours seem to be true...

Worth having a crack IMO.

 

Not for me.  Another medium forward.  He is quick but he's not defensive.  I'd rather play Fritsch.

    hey @Lord Nev what's the info with Rohan? I haven't heard anything.

    Won't go into too much detail, but there was a rumour about Rohan and a very popular Cats teammate getting into a heated argument, possibly even coming to blows, following some inappropriate behaviour by Rohan while in the hub.

    Some info has come out today that gives a bit of cred to those rumours. I'm just wondering out loud if that could mean he might be gettable.

    You could play both IMO. And I think we maybe get too obsessed with defensive aspects in the forward line sometimes (myself included). I wouldn't call Lynch or Martin defensive, but the Tiges make it work because they have great pressure everywhere. We need to score. That's currently our biggest weakness for mine.

    Rohan would be ahead of Hannan (who's gone anyway), Melksham, ANB, Hunt & Spargo atm.

    Rohan possibly has the worst finals record in history.

    If you can't perform in finals you're as useful as a cold pie.

    Kicked 3 goals in the prelim this year.

    Besides, if he's playing for Melbourne what does it matter if he doesn't always play well in finals...

    Gary Rohan has barely given a whimper in 3 Grand Finals. Dud of the highest order!!.......... Lets go get him?

    Fair enough 'Landers.

    I just reckon we need to load up on our forward line more, but get what you're all saying.

    LN  He has an image as a bad finals performer, I thought he tried hard in the GF but not his day, 

    Finals never seem to be Rohan's days.

    Believe a big cat was very upset with him and to be fair he deserved what he copped.

    I agree dazzle we need to improve thr list, would be interesting to know what the cats would accept.

    But unlikely to happen.

    I wouldn't go near Rohan. It's hard enough working out whether a guy that can kick goals consistently in Fritsch canactually be afforded to play forward when he doesn't tackle. Not only does Rohan not kick goals consistently, he doesn't tackle consistently either.

    Would rather a high pressure small forward than an inconsistent athletic medium marking forward that plays out of the goal square. We already have Fritsch, Hunt, Melksham and Petracca that can fill that role. I don't see him as an upgrade on any of these players. And if he has behavioural issues that is causing punch-ons with his own teammates in season then I don't want him anywhere near our club.

    Trade paperwork lodged.   The Brisbane Lions trade Round 3 (43) and its Future Round 4 2021 Selection to Melbourne for its Round 3 (53) and a Future Round 3 2021 Selection.

    Think this trade makes us premiership favourites for next season ?

    Dunno why Lord Nev is trying to keep something posted on bigfooty hush hush. Here's a bit more to the rumour:

    Mainly because I'm more interested in talking the footy stuff than the players personal lives.

    One very new Demon and Significant other would not approve of a Rohan arrival at the Dees.

    • 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.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
