Melbourne Could Have Had Moran, Not Meesen
August 21st 2008 02:45
If there is one forgotten player at Melbourne it must be John Meesen. Maybe he will play a game or two now with a lot of their other ruckmen and tall forwards out, but clearly Melbourne are not too impressed with him. In Adelaide, the Crows would have to be very impressed with the play of Brad Moran. Maybe Melbourne would be happier with Moran, and they probably could have acquired him.
Melbourne sent pick 37 in the 2007 AFL draft to the Crows for Meesen. The Crows looked to the Kangaroos, a team with depth in the ruck department, and sent them pick 37 for Brad Moran. If Melbourne had just offered pick 37 for Moran they would be a better team now, and maybe they still could have acquired Meesen through the preseason draft or with another trade.
There is still time for Meesen to deliver for Melbourne, and he was named among Sandringham's best players last round, but if the Demons could pick between Moran and Meesen right now they wouldn't hesitate to take Moran.
