    SEN quoted a Ricky Petterd 'Twitter' that said "Already looking forward to wearing the red and blue next season".

    Here's hoping!

    lets hope he means it and isnt just saying it

    hope he is wearing the red and blue next year, if not we all need to respect his decision :)

    Great news! It is not as good as him signing the contract, but to state his intention of wanting to play on for MFC is fantastic! He will be a key player for the club for many seasons to come.

    I don't think GC17 will have Miller in their sites unless he improves dramatically. There are a lot of quality players in other clubs they can go after, and to pay over the odds for a struggling forward would be foolish.

    Fingers crossed Ricky means it, makes a full recovery and we do see him next year. I'm looking forward to our round 1 2011 forward line reading:

    HF: Sylvia, Bate, Petterd

    FF: Green, Jurrah, Wonna

    Maybe even throw Watts in there in place of Green?????

    Anybody seen Gold Coast's colours, Red, Blue (& Gold).....

    But seriously, does sound like a good sign.

    Petterd says he is looking forward to pulling on the red and blue in 2011. Plenty of posts about referencing that twitter.

    Maybe Miller, though. GC have money, but not a limitless supply. They can't pay them all a million each. Miller would be reasonably cheap. 128 games, leadership group, 27yo in a team full of younguns (all these 17yos they have been hoarding plus half the 2010 draft picks), can be off the list reasonably quickly is he doesnt pan out. And local is good - one less reason for them to want to go if he does pan out.

    And I've got no doubt the GC17 officials would love to see Pia around the new club. That's the only reason why I'd miss Miller if he did leave! hehe.

    Of course he's going to say something like that, he's hardly going to post - "Well no more work for me this year, looking forward to the big cash injection from GC next year and wearing whatever colours they wind up with!!".

    That said, I believe Ricky will still be with us next season.

    If you spoke to him in person as I and some others did, you could here his love & passion for the club. I think you'd be satisfied.

    I believe he wants to stay.

    I really wish people would stop putting Jurrah at full forward

    • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
