Rookie
melbourne needed a clean out after last years performance. many players still remain on the list that are not quality footballers and will not take melbourne to a premiership.
Trade period:
We should have got Danny Jacobs instead of Ben Holland. Jacobs has proven to be a reliable defender in the absence of Dustin Fletcher whilist Holland sat last season on the bench. Jacobs is young whilist holland is too slow and too injury prone.
Melbourne could have easily used pick 20 better than what they did. Ben Holland is not worth a second round draft pick. I would have been more inclined to use pick 20 (and a melbourne player)in trade involving jacobs.
Now we have got a player (holland) in the same class as Alister Nicholson. Cannot play.. poor skills and soft.
Melbourne need to move forward and this was not the right move.
The following players should have been traded or should be delisted in coming days:
Alister Nicholson - cannot be bothered wasting my breath again (see above)
Chris Lamb - project player- bulls**t, too slow, too small to play a key position, too weak. Hasnt delivered. you cannot wait for ever.
Ezra Poyas -why did we draft him in the first place? another richmond hack to go along with holland
Guy Rigoni - injuries, doesnt play enough, too old
Peter Walsh - too inconsistent,makes too many skill errors, too old
Daniel Ward - too busy at the races
Paul Wheatley - long boot but doesnt get the ball enough, soft
Luke Williams - too small, had an ok season last year, but sick and tired of seeing his name on the list when it could be filled with someone of greater potential, wasting space on melbournes list.
melbourne has proven itself to be one of the worst trading teams in the afls history.
David Grant
Craig Turley
Jamie Shanahan
Craig Ellis
Gary Moorcroft
Ezra Poyas
Plus i am sure that there are many that i forgot to mention. (Holland to be added soon)
We have had one good trade and that was clint bizzell. thats about all i can think of???
