he has such a weaselly head on him. 

Probably got paid a couple of grand for stirring the pot in a media quiet time where facts are actually fanciful but surprisingly profitable for newspaper copy and advertised, tv-viewer scrutiny. Vast observation by the public almost convincingly makes facts from fiction.

Two years up forward not injured 

would mean almost 2 more top 4 finishes

with a little luck, which we had none of this time.  That means another flag, 

he could go anywhere then and remain a hero.   Go Dee’s

The lure home? Isn't his family home about as far from Adelaide as Mildura is from Melbourne? If he leaves the MFC, it would surely be for reasons other than homesickness.

Interesting that the crowd pitch involved him playing back.

Wonder if he has a preferred end of the ground?

He looked very happy kicking six snags against the Tiges

Can't stand the crunt, whoever is feeding him info from the MFC should be burnt at the stake along side him.

Is there any evidence that there has been a leak within the MFC? Couldn't the story have come from a player manager or someone Petty might have spoken to outside the club (if, indeed the story is true)? Or even Petty's family who may have been speaking in hope rather than trading in fact?

We won’t lose him if playing defense is his desire. He can play in defense no worries. Especially with May finishing up soon.

Why are people thinking this is a leak from the Club? Ffs Morris is clearly making sch!tt up.

"You speak to people around Petty, they believe there is a strong lure home…”

“People around Petty…” Who might these people be? Names and direct quotes or GTFO.

I once stood next to him at a Mexican restaurant. He told me he was keen on the beef burrito. 
Make of that what you will…

I would be more concerned if he prefers a pie floater.

The "crowd pitch" whatever that is don't know their footy. 

If Dees are to salute in either 2024/5 then Harry has to play Forward. The crowd are caught up like Goody was and even he realises Harry is just as suited up forward just as he is in defence and it makes us a much harder team to beat.

My Nanna is from Wudinna, and her grandparents names are on the Australia Farmers monument located there, rest assured everyone I am not feeling lured to head “home”!

Apparently Tom was there, too:

'Harry and I caught up at a local restaurant. I can report he said, 'I've got a beef...bury it, or...'

It was evident he wanted this kept quiet, but now...'

Star Dog in talks, Power mid attracts interest, flag Dee to stay - https://www.afl.com.au/news/1048515

MELBOURNE forward Harrison Petty will stay at the Demons despite Adelaide's interest in the premiership player.

The Demons will be in negotiations with the Crows to trade in forward Shane McAdam, with Adelaide having interest in luring back South Australian Petty.

However, despite having a pull home, Petty is locked in to remain at Melbourne, where he is contracted for the next two seasons and highly valued as a part of the Dees' group.

Goes to show that there is no accountability in AFL “journalism” - absolute hackery and bulldust, where the instigators are never called out on their made up stories.

Substitute 'Oliver' for 'Petty' in that statement, how convinced would we be?

Personally, I don't think he goes (nor does Clayton), but just sayin'...

Agreed. Just Morris attempting to regain some relevance after his… ‘hiatus’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
