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: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
