Then they will need to come up with some very very good draft picks - not sure how that happens Correct, we have him under contract for 2025. Our preference would obviously be to retain him beyond that, however if he tells he wants a trade and will walk regardless in 2025, and crows stink it up this year and end up with a top 5 pick, do we bite the bullet for max value? 1 Quote

DemonJack 14 94 Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 If Petty goes we absolutely have to recruit a decent key forward. Most likely Brown and T. Mac retire, Schache not reliable unfortunately, Jefferson young but question marks on his physicality. our Key position forward talent is wafer thin already let alone with Petty leaving. Not sure who we can poach, but if we only seek draft picks as compensation for Petty we must thinking rebuild. 1 Quote

While not giving up hope on retaining him, I might just have to add them to the 2.0 deathride. I find it interesting that the accepted narrative in footy journalism is to speculate about player moves before most teams have even started the year. We’ve had Oliver, Petty, JUH amongst others. I thought it was ‘not done’ to speak about other teams’ contracted players? In public at least? This industry is becoming a deeper and darker cesspool, with the journalists lying on their backs at the bottom, feeding on it all. 11 1 Quote
Kent 2,920 Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 I suggest we leave this speculative conversation until we see how he returns from injury and whether he can return to his brief but good form 2 2 Quote

Mid-ish first rounder is what the offer will be otherwise they’ll threaten to take him to pre-season draft where everyone will baulk at his heavily front-ended deal and desire to be back home. Goodwin gambled on him being a critical piece in a premiership tilt this year. I don’t blame Goodwin, but it isn’t looking great for us at the moment. He is still contracted until the end of 2025. We still hold the cards but if we don't trade him this year he becomes a R(?)FA at the end of next year. 1 Quote
Bring-Back-Powell 15,547 Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 I can't see how we don't hold Petty to his contract for 2025 unless we have a proven and experienced key forward to replace him. The club owes it to itself and its members to look after its backyard first and foremost (which they didn't do with the Grundy trade) We should tell Adelaide that if a forward hasn't agreed to come to us before or during trade week this year, then we're not trading him. 2 Quote

dees4lyf 19 Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 If he goes, then we will be well compensated.. Funny that Petty has become Wayne Carey after a couple games forward. the reliance and expectations on him to be the saviour up forward is laughable. I hope he is, but the sample size is tiny. Get a couple first rounders for him, turn him into a genuine fwd. 2 Quote
YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,822 Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 The key to all this is if Brayshaw's money is outside of the cap, if it is we are in a very strong position to retain Harry. Petty's management have played this perfectly over the summer, if we offer similar terms to the Crows i reckon he will stay. This all depends on Petty performing this year and body staying sound. 2 Quote

Aussie rules is a contact sport and can be quite brutal at times. Harrison's serious foot injury was a result of a 100kg defender's awkwardness, loss of balance or lack of care? Falling impactfully on his lower limbs. 43 minutes ago, Demonland said: Theo should add 'kick' to his moniker but then a well executed dropkick was a thing of beauty to behold.

seventyfour 1,248 Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 Most players peak at 26-29 so his best years are still ahead of him. KPFs are extremely hard to find. They don't often become available and usually you have to draft them and wait years with a slim chance they develop into above-average KPF. With all of this in mind, we need to fight like hell to keep him. If we can't, the minimum price is two first-round picks. Or Rachele is a Victorian - we'll take him plus a first rounder. 1 2 Quote
