Cant believe this thread is still going.

There a few people on here saying 'if the right deal came along we should do it'

Well of course if we win out of the trade we should. But Pettards current trade value is far below what he is truly worth.

He is a match winner when on song. And how many games has he played? his best is in front of him.

What do you think a club would pay for Ricky at this point? If you think its anything more than a mid second round pick you are dreaming.

Why don't we just keep him and let him develop into the potential match winner he could become?

Your joking right?

You should be talking about trading Morton or Bate. Not Ricky! Is most definitely a required player.

I would trade our first pick for Rory Sloane!

I wasn't.

I NEVER DID

I'd say we'd be better, moving the good over 28's on, even if it's unpopular, (tough decisions) but more rewarding.

The no upside 2nd tier can get traded for steak knives.

And how does that improve the list? Most of over 28s have no market value. Have you good some more incisive thoughts about the list?

Plus we've only got one over 28 ... Green. We've got two 28s ... Davey and Jamar. One of our problems is senior experience (not to mention leadership).

Having obtained good picks over the last few years, we need to largely build on what we've got. Trading is not like swapping football cards where you give your $3 Petterd or Jamar for a $5 star. Constantly wanting to turn over the list by trading out players as soon as they reach 50 games, start to show something and have 'value' is wasting draft picks and 3-4 years of development.

Trading players like Petterd just because you can is pure folly. There are some more notable passengers occupying seats on the list.
