Just reported on SEN that a few clubs have asked about Brad Green. Craig Cameron has said that it would take something special for us to even have a look at trading him.

    Several clubs are interested in Brad Green. Melbourne said that something pretty special would have to be offered to let Brad Green go.

    Yeah doubt they will trade him.. Would need alot to take him from us.. Some ppl have been saying his our next leader

    i would only trade Green for a top 12 pick.

    otherwize its simply not worth it.

    Green has come top 7 in our b&f the last 6 years! he is a model of inconsistently. he is only 26/27 yrs old, and imo should be captain next season.

    the reason this trade probably wont eventuate is that Melbourne will want too much for him, and other teams wont be willing to part with much to get him.

    cant see him being traded.

    Interesting stuff and a obvious answer from CAC . Would need to be very very worthwhile offer for us even to speak to anyone about it.

    What time do they go too at the dome? IS it monday- friday 9-5?

    Sold, to the highest bidder. Shouldn't this be in trade talk though Freak?

    If somebody offered a top 15 pick for him, I would probably take it. What is he, 28 next year? It's a tough call, but I would seriously consider a top-15 pick for him.

    Very interesting

    Shame its Green thats getting the interest, and not Cameron Brice

    Damn

    Ad for Green, Id rather keep him but I would obviously take a top 10 pick for him

    Seconded... perhaps apart from the Captain part, but he IS a leader.

    Unfortunately if CAC is serious about getting some more decent picks, he has to realise that it's these players, Green, Bruce, Davey, etc. who are going to be inquired about.

    Would deiniftely take a top 10, pick 12 at the worst.

    2 years ago i would've jumped at it... now i think we should keep him, i think he will be our next captain...

    The right price won't come. I wouldn't take anything less than a top 5 and that won't be offered. He won't be traded.

    I don't think he's quite that good. He's a leader, but he's an outside player, and his kicking is erratic. The number of times I've seen him drill a ball onto the chest of a leading forward is vastly outweighed by the number of times he floats the ball high inside 50, and thats in both our good and bad years. His goalkicking has also lapsed significantly in the past 2 seasons. I like him, as a player and a person, but I would hate to think we wouldn't seriously consider a top-10 pick for him.

    Top 10 in a heartbeat. But he's not worth that and it won't happen! Which side needs him that badly?

    He could round out a side that is on the brink of a flag challenge very nicely, but inherently those who are in such a position do not have top-10 picks. He would fit nicely into a team like Collingwood (Pick 14 plus a young KPP perhaps?... I would be loathe to see him turn out for the filth though), Hawkthorn (12 + Roughnut?), Adelaide (10 + Meesen?), all of whom are close-ish to a challenge, and have lost a significant midfield presence to retirement this year. There are a raft of clubs that he could go to, in fact, but most would be quite reticent about parting with fair compensation for him.

    Would not surprise me if Sydney offered pick 11 for him.

  • Quote

    i reakon alot of clubs would be interested. he can play in the middle and as a decent forward.

    I would love to see him played mostly as a forward next year and rotate through the middle for about 15 mins a game to give the midfielders a rest. unfortunatly we dont have enough decent midfielders yet to allow him into the forward zone.

  • Quote

    Top 10 pick or don't come knocking on our door you vultures.

    Would hate to trade away one of the only senior players we have with some real leadership qualities.

    Having said that, Green is expendable.

    Green to Dogs for pick 5?

    He can play forward or midfield or half back. Why not?

  • Quote

    lol.that is a ridiculous statement. pick5! not a chance in hell would we get that. I think the only player that would get a top 5 pick would be Mclean or Davey or even Jones if we were really really lucky. Green is too old to get a top 5 pick.

  • Quote

    The best another Club would offer is a 2nd Rd pick and/or a used player. Can't see it working out .

  • Quote

    I would accept any pick in the top 30, he is not worth a first round pick.

    trading for early draft picks is ok, but we need to keep some experience as well. green should stay.

    Why don't you throw Trav, Brock and Jones in and see if we can get a second round pick?

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
