Christian Petracca

Richmond pick 1 plus another later first round pick.

Kangaroos pick 2 + Duursma

West Coast pick 3 + Future 1st

St kilda pick 4 + Max King

I don't know, just trying to make myself feel better. It's not working and I still don't like most of these deals.

I must admit, I reckon the way Trac has hung Clarry out to dry, it might just be enough to light a fire under Clarry’s [censored]!

Head to head in top form, it would be a ding dong battle.

People have already alluded to him planning a massive off season and potential overseas training camp

I don't see that any clubs, yet alone Melbourne-based clubs, have the trade capital, not to mention the A-grade player to throw in. Apparently Hawthorn interested (though who knows ...), but they only have Pick 12 and ???

Newcombe and Weddell in, Petracca out

makes us a better side.

Unfortunately I can’t see Hawthorn going for it.

Would Trac be irritated that (unprofessional) Clarry having 4 Bluey’s to Tracc’s  2

I was thinking the same thing. One of the reasons McClure gave was that he didn’t like how the Oliver situation was resolved..

Oliver was supposed to be one of his best mates.. so he wanted to just drop him despite all his challenges. Some mate..

From what I can gather the only other club to lose a Norm Smith medallist was WCE who lost Judd BUT he won it in a losing side.

It is unfathomable what has happened to this club since winning the flag, is it just that we can't have nice things?? Supporters will be absolutely furious if this trade eventuates and the club must front with answers. The typical corporate speak and fobbing us off will just lead to more disillusionment and disengagement. Petracca is huge with the young supporters who will drop off unless we can get back to winning and win another flag very soon.

Reckon we offer him up to Freo for Andrew Brayshaw and one of their first round draft picks. They are a big club who pull big crowds

Id love that.

forgot who but just a reference to ch7 news, then a post by me as reference to similar stuff on ch9 news. and a response to the ch7 news by someone.  none of it speculative i didn't think. just pointing out stuff on the public record by news stations.

I guess all they can do is say they want to keep him to keep is trade value up? its like with Oliver letting it leak he was having a personal crisis before then suggesting he might be traded was amateur.

Oliver never let that leak. It was leaked by the club to pull him into line.

So effectively Collingwood have destroyed our club by injuring Brayshaw and Petracca. 

They truly are the evil Sith doing the bidding of the dark side

Sorry typo - i mean the club

[Ted Lasso 19,183]

Not sure Trac is really going to like not being the big star at Carlton behind Cripps and Curnow. 

Maybe he will try to push them both out and then demand another trade at the end of 2025 being unhappy with their direction 

[DistrACTION Jackson 8,406]

Honest question, if he were to walk away from the club next year if we don’t trade him, would that be a break of contract and we would be off the hook salary wise?

Earlier in the year he was hanging out with Gawn and Clarry prior to games…

He’s a big star of the competition as it is. If the reports are true, I think it’s more about increasing his “brand” and social media presence, and going to one of the big Melbourne clubs would do that.

Tracca has a clear enough head to consider his 'brand' and bigger crowds!

Unless all that is being driven by someone else.

G- brace yourself it’s gonna happen. There no walking this back. He has torched other players in the club. If they don’t trade him, I’d be less worried about the opposition players on the field.

Being a Melbourne supporter is a full time job… for my therapist.

Cant get a trade? Just make it untenable...
