We have never talked about it before.

Good back up option in a few positions. You'd think if we are full strength he probably wont get a game, but he had the ability to play key back, key forward and ruck so as a back up he's handy. Hope it costs us pick 76

intriguing.

If he gets the same boost as Dunn and Howe that our jumper brings, could be anything. Forward he has a few tricks, back has the height. He's like a slower Darcy Moore. I'm happy with this pickup, unless it costs us something better.

Article in Sydney Morning Herald about this and his close mates ship with Matthew Boyd

"There was speculation on Friday afternoon Collingwood was poised to make a late play for Roughead, but no paperwork was lodged by Friday's 5pm deadline."

Now that the free agency period has closed, the remaining players can only join new clubs via trades unless they are delisted.

If they delist themselves they must nominate for the NAB AFL Draft or pre-season draft, but if they are delisted by their clubs they are eligible for delisted free agency.

Duryea (Sydney and Western Bulldogs) also attracted opposition interest but it's understood he still has the option of remaining with Hawthorn, as Roughead does with the Bulldogs.

Very interesting.
Can play back.
If we wanted him why didn't we lodge the paperwork before the closing deadline.
Uncontracted free agent.
Strange.

restricted free agent

If we got him as a free agent it might have decreased our pick 57 for Faz. We should be able to get him for next to nothing - ie. a pick we're not going to use.

Interesting

Yes. Suggest we'll trade for him with pick 70+, rather than FA so we don't lose our pick 57.

If I was McLarty I'd be a little disappointed with the Roughead announcement.

I would have thought his development across his first two seasons in the VFL has been geared towards being that player who can potentially fill a role at full back, full forward or in the ruck.

I would have been happy to just see him given senior opportunity if it presented or his form couldn't be ignored.

Roughead improves our key position depth which was required but doesn't improve on our first choice options in the roles he plays so I hope we can now secure a player like a Beams who'll definitely improve the midfield mix to what we witnessed in 2018.

No need to respond to that last part P4S.

LOL.

Guess we have to wait to Monday to see what Happens with Jordan Roughead

TBH its probably alot of mind games and chess being played. Showing GCS and May we not going to give up the kitchen sink for him and we have other options...

McClarty shouldn't be disappointed he should be inspired to extract digit
