What is Petterd worth?


Freak

Recommended Posts

That's a rare thing. A sensible post.

Nobody, including Freak can say he's going. Likewise, nobody can say for sure he's staying. Things change VERY quickly. Let's say the Ablett thing falls through, they'll have more money to throw at uncontracted players then, and suddenly the landscape changes. We're MONTHS away from an answer here I think.

Yeah, contracts, but from a GC-17 perspective, the players they're interested in are evaporating as the season wears on. I;d say they would have to have there Main signings done by now, or its nearly, 'The ship has sailed time',,, The GAblett thing, you'ld think, must be sealed, one way or the other, by now, or there won't be any Marquee player.

Newcomers to Demonland! You have experienced one of the mysteries of Demonland...

Freak is the anti-oracle.

It's cruel to kick a guy when he is down but I really hope he bags every player we have, tells us the coach has no idea and that there is no hope of a flag in the next 5 years.

Yeah. That's one thing that's hurting them as time goes on, that SO much hinges on the Ablett thing. I reckon you're right, the fact that everyone around him is signing at their original clubs shows perhaps that the money they're getting isn't all i's cracked up to be, ad that Ablett may have already cleared off with the biggest piece of the pie.

Interesting times.

PS...

How much do we all love Ricky right now? One of the most important signings of the last 5 or so years for mine. Probably the happiest I've felt that we retained a player since the time Ooze was on the move to the Blues. (That should probably make me nervous, but it doesn't).

Yeah I think GAblett jnr is a dunn deal, & there's probably more... Our case I think is different that our players can see the quality were accumulating, 7 realise the high Potential of success for our list going forward. It's a youthfull & vibrant place to be right Now with things falling into place allover, around us ATMO.

A great thing for a young guy, to be associated with. Thanks Juddy.

However, think about GWS,,, how hard will it be for them to draw a Marquee player or two from the existing competition as teams will be locking them away contractually.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
