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?


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.

These all sound fairly unlikely.

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

Interesting thought.

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.

I'd take Alwyn in a flash! (yes, pun intended)

Hey mate

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

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?

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.

 
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:

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.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
