If his foot holds up he will have more trade value than he does now but i hope he stays, more valuable to us than draft picks.

If his foot is being held up he can't kick and his trade value drops surely?

Petty will be a Restrictred Free Agent when he comes out of contract in 2025, at which time, based on the current compensation calcualtions for tall defenders... we should get Pick 1, Pick 2 and exclusive fishing rights in the Bass Strait for 20 years.

If we can get the necessary picks to satisfy WCE for pick 1, reckon we trade him

Maybe we should try the old 'sorry Adelaide, it's not you, it's us' trick.

Blame the victim? No way. 

We need to say ‘[censored] off’ and ‘if you come near my little Harry again, I will call the cops.’

Just block their number.

Although we may need to stay at our sister clubs house… Perth Demons? Stay in Perth for a bit? Are people following the metaphor? I can stop now?

Was getting worried to see this thread with a high post count today. Had a huge sigh of relief when it's all come from Kornes.

This guy will advise us to move him on this year then have a crack at us next year for poor list management when we have no key position depth. If he moved, he will then claim it as further evidence of poor club culture. Guy is a click bait parasite.

And I'm not even sure about the click bait bit.

Justin Reid has now threatened to go on a hunger strike if we don't trade Harry Petty to the Crows.

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.

Recruiting quality interstaters poses a risk… we’ve lost Hogan, Jackson, Thompson, the Wiz, maybe Petty and others in my lifetime.

Not saying you don’t recruit kids from interstate (there are plenty that stay) but people on here fascinated with the idea of the two Tassie boys at the top end of this year’s draft - I can’t see anything but a lose/lose outcome from a Dees’ perspective… the lure of representing their state’s first ever side (+ the $$$) will be far more powerful than Harry Petty wanting to return to the city where he went to boarding school and where his sister plays netball.

Conor McKenna has just told Brisbane that he wants to go home again because the Guinness here doesn't taste the same (true) and the last food parcel from home went missing in transit so he's run out of Barry's Tea. 

They only drink Barry’s tea in Munster, McKenna being from Ulster I’d hazard a guess would be a Lyons Tea man

The Tayto Crisps didn't arrive either. Cheese and onion flavour. there's no substitute. very upsetting for him.

If Adelaide are looking to re-mortgage the house to get Petty it might be worth a look. Petty might start to lose interest (and form) if he stays and is earning significantly less cash (the what if factor). Hawthorn won two premierships after buddy left, I don't  think too many saw that coming. As per Roosy's stance back in his day at the Dees, if they want out we are not gonna force them to stay. That is if he actually decides he wants out, which he may not... Gonna be an interesting turn of events...

What evidence do you have that Petty isn’t happy to stay and play for Melbourne? 
If he doesn’t come out and ask for a trade then he’s clearly very comfortable and committed to stay.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan.

Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date.
