Key Forwards

I am talking about Griffen from Adelaide!

In that case it is Jonathon Griff i n

I would also like to see Melbourne try and get young Tasmanian, Mitch Thorp from the Hawks. As it currently stands he is well down the pecking order at the Hawks and unless there are some long term injuries there he will not see many AFL games. He has Franklin, Roughead, Boyle all in front of him and the first two as we all know are the best two young key forwards in the comp.

I know that he has recently re-signed for another two years but that means nothing these days. I'm not sure what we could offer them to get this deal over the line as I'm sure they would drive a fairly hard deal for a big key forward that has been playing fairly well at VFL level.

I would be interested to see if anyone else has an opinion on Thorp and if they think it is someone we should be chasing come trade time. If so, what needs to be done to make this happen?

Yeah, you're not getting him. Key Position players don't just develop overnight (Franklin and Roughead are both freaks), so why the hell would we trade him (pick #6 in the key position MEGA draft) after his first 2 years??

And he also signed a new contract where he came out and said that he is loving hawthorn and is looking forward to the challenge of breaking into the competition's best forward line.

But you are right, he is the exact kind of player you need. The kind of guy that you can build a forward line around at CHF.

I love all of the people throwing up trades involving Adelaide - without actually seeming to take into account what Adelaide would want.
