If he's going it will be a trade at the end of next year. We have time to get contingency in place and there's no way we'll let him run into his FA year and rely on compensation in return. Even 1st round compensation will be late 1st round.  The Crows will have to pay far more than that.  The Lever trade is the benchmark.

    Fogarty & pick 10 will do

    In a perfect world pick 10 turns into O’Sullivan and they become key pillars for 10 years

    Benchmark is (at a minimum) the Luke Jackson trade.

    Based on the McKay compensation we should be getting pick 1

    Don't get me wrong I'm not happy with this, i will be contacting the club via email like i did with Clarry's situation.

    I encourage my fellow demonlanders to do the same.

    Oh please - what is it with the 'email the club to express my frustration' palaver.

    You dont think they have better things to do than respond to fans critiques?

    Please. 

    I encourage my fellow demonlanders to not contact the club to bag them out.

    is this incompetent [censored] capable of getting ANYTHING right?

    he's a restricted free agent at the end of 2025

    if he elects to go and we're not happy with the compo, we can match

    ffs, ralph is a hopeless 'journalist'

    Rarely do teams match when players wish to leave.

    and the part that most annoyed me is that they made it sound like we had a year to sign him up or we'd lose him

    he's signed for two more seasons, not one

    Loyalty lol. If his injury doesn't heal and he has a bad season next year, you'll be one of the first trying to kick him out the door.

    I wasn't talking specifically about Petty, I was referring more to the broader professional sport evolution.

    It is also cruel when the clubs treat players like just assets and not people.

    I do agree I may have become more cynical, just too many negative stuff happening around in the world today.

    Seriously Clubs are going to go broke or at best be seriously compromised if they going to offer a player 800k on a long term contract that has a serious foot injury. Petty is a good player with further potential, injuries aside, but he is not a champion. The deals being offered around the traps are high risk plays. And can end up belly up.

    Would have been fun to see Petty request a trade on an 8 year, $106m supermax deal then have the Crom offer up their future 2nd rounder

    Lots of water to pass under the bridge on this one. Sydney convinced Papley to stay when it looked like he was on the way to Carlton.

    Papley going to Carlton would have been further reason to hate both player and club including fans. The latter would be insufferable.

    Surely any offer by the crows is irrelevant because he is contracted till 2025. Petty cant just pack up and leave.He wouldnt do that to us anyway.

    I reckon mangers are trying to boost his value.

    We can wait till 2025 before re signing him. Why the rush.

    What if he breaks down again.

    Alot can happen to AFL clubs in 18 months.

    Look at how much we have been affected since the Maynard incident. One disaster after another.

    It was only a month ago. Feels like it happened last year.

    People change and so do clubs priorities.

    Look their not doing what their doing because they are supremely intelligent or have high professional standards. They are journalists in name only. I prefer the term “reporters” although they are not reporting facts but rather reporting opinions. Any footy journo with any ambition or higher calling would get out of the industry and do something worthwhile. But who would employ them and what would they do? Hmmm, that’s a mystery.

    It's disappointing all this. Petty was to be our key pillar for the next ten years. He's won a flag with us, we drafted him in the second round and have developed him very well. I guess Adelaide could say a similar thing of Lever, but this is a problem for us list management nevertheless.

    I hope we can change his mind and get him a KPF partner for 2025.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
