Petty is worth so much more than Thilthorpe. Petty has shown he is a very capable KPP at both ends, Thilthorpe is struggling to be a half decent KPF

    Apologies for giving Cornes oxygen.

    'Like for like'. Would it be? In football terms for one (@Demon Disciple's response noted) but also:

    The player's respective desires to move (if any)?

    Does HP still get the $3.4m? And what contract for RT?

    Just because there's a lure doesn't mean it will catch anything. 

    As a fisherman who mostly uses lures this is 100% correct 😂

    I am firmly is the keep Petty camp but I'm guessing it comes down to how highly JT rated Thilthorpe is his draft year.

    Petty has to be the most underrated player in the competition!

    Any Petty trade significantly reduces our current window while Max and May are still elite AFL players. I would only consider Thilthorpe plus all their first rounders.

    And McAddam, at the very least.

    Would you pay Harry Petty who is currently recovering from a very serious foot injury 800-900k a year? 

    I rate the kid, but no way in the world i'd be spending that sort of money on him

    A 4 - 5 year deal at $650-700k.would be fair value IMO. He is an excellent key defender entering his prime over the next few years and has demonstrated he is very capable as a key forward. Look at what Essendon paid for Ben McKay.  The $800k that Adelaide are supposedly offering includes a premium to entice him out of an environment he is happy in - Roos once said it costs 20% more to trade in a player than to retain one.

    On a side note I like that Tom Morris is reporting Petty's lure to his boarding school 'home'. The whole idea of boarding school is somewere to stay while you study away from home. As some have pointed out here he is not from Adelaide but South Australia.

    We won't trade Petty. Hold him to his contract and start negotiations on a great extension next year.

    If it doesn't work out then we've got a year to make alternative plans.

    He has 2 years to run so if he wants to go to the Crows at the end of next year they still have to pay up big for a contracted player.

    Basically values Petty as Future 2nd and McAdam to us. Every other club says yes because Melbourne loses out so badly in this deal. Thilthorpe, pick 10 and McAdams to be in the conversation for Petty.

    Petty is a great player and would love to keep him at the Dees. 
    However I think we are crazy not to consider options given he may want to leave at the end of his contract anyway. 
     

    I would consider a trade along the lines of: 


    Thilthorpe or Fogarty, 10 and McAdam

    for Petty and a Future 2nd 

    yes it’s overs for Petty, but they are offering him 1 mil 2 years out from a contract. 
     

    Thilthorpe or Fogarty are young enough and will develop really well with JVR. mcAdam comes across with another player which may assist in forward connection earlier, and we get another first rounder to throw at Eagles for Reid.

     

    We can cover petty down back with Disco.

    Great deal for West Coast assuming they get the player they wanted with their first pick regardless of pick 1 or pick 4.

    Petty must stay at Melbourne. Adelaide can go and get stuffed. As for Mcadam he is about as reliable as passed wind in a pickle bottle.

    agree about mcadam. he's inconsequential

    3rd rounder or go jump, crows

    Disagree covering Petty.

    His is a super star in the making if his body holds up better.

    Plus I know he's only played a few games fwd but ultimately that's his best role and we would struggle to find a replacement for him there.

    We have no serviceable tall feds apart from him. Maybe Smith but he's not super tall or as good.

    Hope we  can keep him.

    Stuff McAdam. Just another overrated [censored] in the money fueled trade period. Stuff the crows. I dont want any of them playing in our jumper( except Tex).

    Hey crows!!!  wanna give us Tex!

    We'll give you Spargo Chandler and a future 2nd round pick.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
