Roberton requests to be traded.

Will probably get a deal done for him on Friday - 2nd or 3rd rounder is my guess.

Yeah most likely mate! 3rd rounder would be fair

So no trade back to Victoria. What does this mean for him? Is he going to be out of favour with Lyon after requesting to leave or will he still be given opportunities in the side?

To be honest - I have no idea.  There hasnt been any talk of what will happen to Roberton.  There has been lots of speculation about Jack Anthony (but he is an easy target).

As you can see I am a new chum here.But been a member since day one.
Just found this site and hope to be here for a while and post.
I see that Roberton couldn't get a deal done which surprises me a bit.
I think that the club will hold onto him unless he wants to go immediately.I see plenty of upside to him.
I am sure if he decided to stay for one more year the club would keep him on the books.

He deffinetley wont be playing at freo next year guys.
I play indoor footy with a group of his mates and he came and watched one of our games a few weeks ago with a heavily pregnant girlfriend and said that he was talking with clubs down here but wouldn't say who.
Obviously those deals didn't get done but I wouldn't think he is going to leave his girlfriend and newborn baby in Melbourne or ship them across to Perth with no family support
