I was told by my Journo friend that Roughed will be put on the table by Hawthorn for a trade they are after another midfielder to replace Vandenberg. also that Alwyn Davey wants out at Essendon and apparently wants to join, Aaron Ashley Sampi is also entering the draft.

Theseare very good players if we could snare Jarred R and Alwyn D this MORE THAN makes up for Judd what is your opinion

-go for meeson/jolly (ruckman). look at ofsetting maybe ferg or miller. get alwyn davey for sure.

I don't understand why Davey would want out. If he did, naturally, I would be very interested, but I can't really understand why he would want to leave Essendon.

It would seem little odd Alwyn would want to leave the Bombers, especially after only one season. Maybe he isn't a Matthew Knights fan?

These all sound fairly unlikely.

Wonder if the Hawks would take Trav as a straight swap for Roughead. :D

Alwyn has been identified as a key component of rebuilding Essendons midfield. I can't see why he would walk away from that kind of guaranteed oppurtunity.

If he moves to another club he would have to start all over again to prove his worth.

If true however sign him up!

Roughead and Davey would be great pickups..

I heard ages ago that he wanted to play with his brother..so im not suprised

i cant see alwyn leaving especially after they gave him a spot on an afl list. we shud target roughead though

I heard from someone yesterday the Crows are very keen on obtaining Alan Didak and would consider trading the likes of Ben Rutten

Would you entertain a 3 way deal that would send Didak to the Crows and Rutten to Melourne with pick 4 going to the Pies?

I'll only take Roughnut if he gets rid of that mullet. His head isn't pleasing to the eye at the best of times. The mullet hinders, rather than helps, that situation.

While it's been reported that Alwyn Davey wants to play with Aaron, not sure he would go after the opportunity that Essendon gave him last yr. If it wasn't for his injury he probably would've played every game. As for Roughead i think it would be a good pick up, but how much would they want for him? if it was a straight swap for Trav that'd be nice but i think they'd want more

That must mean he's no good, whats he been up to.

Wow, that'd be good. Then we could have a midfield of Bruce,Aaron & Alwyn, & we could nickname them frills bells & whistles. :lol:

I really cant see Roughead leaveing. He is the future of their club. However one of my mates who is a mad hawks supporter spoke to me about how he thinks the club wants to trade him. What would he cost? Well he was pick 3 if i remember correctly so i would think pick 4 would probobly do it. I would be hesident about giving away pick 4 tho cause i dont see roughead as a key CHF who will play great footy in that position. I think hes better at forward pocket

There's whispers that Hawthorn are keen on Trapper, if that's true, I'd be happy with a straight swap, but I think we can do much better than Roughead with pick 4.

But would hawks go a straight swap. Trav is what 26? and Roughead 20 something. So they might not get a 1st rounder but perhaps a 2nd rounder or 3rd rounder. Straight swap for TJ i would be very happy

Depends on how keen they are I guess.......

I reckon we have enough rough heads in our team already! ( uuuummm - Carroll ? but I like tha guy. )

I would love to see Alwyn with Aaron - but can't really see it happening at the moment.

Hey mate

If you are going to post crap can you make it a bit more realisitc?

If Alwyn's not a Matthew Knights fan, he's not alone. The only thing easing the pain of the Judd situation is watching the Essendon board run their club into the ground.

Posted
bit harsh yze_magic didnt sound too left field to me you never know, sure we will hear worse rumours before trade week is over

So Hawthorn are willing to trade Jarryd Roughead, one of the best young KPP's in the game and a guy they spent pick 4 on , to replace superdud Richie Vandenberg? They can replace Vandenberg with anyone, they could pick up Gpdders in the PSD and he will do the same as if not better than Vandenberg

But nah, they are gonna give Roughead away for a dime a dozen midfielder

:blink:

Posted

Roughead has great ability on the football field, he could be a great footballer. His off field antics worry me. If Hawthorn are trying to trade a young KPP with enourmous potential there is a good reason behind it. I would not go near him.

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
