hells bells

Only 1 week to go thank god.

It's funny that Dodoro said it's for pick 25 and JM said that it would be a second rounder and that 25 would be around the mark. I expect this will take till next week now. We'll be trying to get a pick closer to 30 to trade to the Bombers. Good planning by the club if that's what's happening.

If we get pick 19 or similar for Howe. In effect Melksham replaces Howe and we move 6 positions in the draft. Not such a bad result,

This is all part of the List Management strategy IMO. Like him or not Melksham is a massive upgrade on Bail Kennedy is 22 and from a potential perspective offers more than Riley. Bugg only 21 and is a better player than Mckenzie. It increases the depth of the squad no doubt.

Adam, love to get a PM too.

Does Melksham become a tagger to free up Bernie as the skilled outside mid we've been looking for.

AzzKika, Not sure if you are being serious. Do you really think the club wouldn't be across this? You must have a very low opinion of the entire organization if you think they wouldn't have weighed up everything before making a call such as this.

I'm underwhelmed by Melksham, but you have to back Roosy. Many times when he was at Sydney I laughed at the players they picked up only to be wrong. If you go back through the list he hasn't missed on too many: 2002 Nick Davis - Pies Craig Bolton - P/S Brisbane 2003 No trades 2004 Darren Jolly - Melbourne 2005 Ted Richards - Essendon 2006 Peter Everitt - Hawks 2007 Marty Mattner - Adelaide Henry Playfair - Geelong 2008 Rhyce Shaw - Pies 2009 Mark Seaby - Eagles Shane Mumford - Geelong Ben McGlynn - Hawks Josh Kennedy - Hawks 2010 No trades MELBOURNE 2013 Daniel Cross - Bulldogs FA Aiden Riley - Crows FA Viv Michie - Freo Dom Tyson - GWS Bernie Vince - Adelaide 2014 Ben Newton - Port FA Jeff Garlett - Carlton Lumumba - Pies Sam Frost - GWS I'll back him, Goodwin and Macca to make this one a positive trade too.

Luke Parker This would be my dream!!
