It would have to involve a MEGA Trade.

Dish Licker mate of mine reckons he would trade Naughton for him BUT NOT Ugle Hagen!

This is the problem for us if we don't hold firm. Collingwood don't even have a first round pick to trade. Blues and Bombers both have one, and neither is high enough to be a key part of a package.

For Blues, Cripps, Weitering, TDK and Curnow from the Blues would be the only players we'd consider. Unlikely any of them are options, maybe TDK if we get lucky.

For Pies, N Daicos or DeGoey the only options. Daicos obviously impossible. DeGoey plus them somehow securing a high pick on top of him could do it, but won't happen.

For Bombers, Merrett the only one and that's unlikely. 

We need to deal with Richmond and get pick 1 or ship him off to the Gold Coast to get some high picks and a good kid. If he wants to go to Pies or Blues, then it's going to be a bad result for everyone concerned, including Christian himself. 

If this is about "brand", then Trac has just shot himself in the foot before even moving club. His reputation is being smashed. Irony is he's chasing Instagram likes or whatever bullsh*t, but he's going to have to turn off social media because he's going to cop it for years now. What a debacle this is. Lol at his management working overtime to dig their grave deeper here.

My sense this is other people around him pushing the agenda.

Apparently Will Hayward is on the table.😉

Whilst I've no doubt there is substance to Petracca wanting out, let's not forget that the media is keen for this to run and run. And rather than confirming 'facts' from reliable sources they now confirm their own stories with each other. A veritable circle jerk.

Case in point - read something today (can't remember what but concerning Trac) where one bottom-feeding muckraker claimed that his rumor had been substantiated by a slightly more elevated muckraker in Sam Edmund. Well that settles it, must be true.

McRae has essentially just ruled Collingwood out of the race on SEN.

They simply don't have the draft capital.

 

Wouldn’t trust anything coming out of the mouth of those p#%cks

Maybe Trac doesn't trust the club's medical staff.

Who could blame him?

I really hate this influencer thing.  A bloke is on $1M/year for several years so he's in a good position to launch his life post football.  There are plenty of jobs which with his profile he could walk into in AFL land and doubtless many other things which are of some productive value to society.  But to effectively just become a stooge for promoting products and producing nothing of value is very sad.

I could.  Does he also not trust the docs at the hospital that missed the seriousnesss of the injury for several hours despite havig diagnostic equipment not available at a footy ground?  If so, he needs to have a quiet think.  I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he doesn't think that.  But what really annoys me is others who have blamed our docs publically and posters here who accept that line.  Sure they got it wrong but hindsight is a wonderful thiing.

It's a scourge Sue, but if you're surrounded by people in that industry continually [censored] in your pocket, I'm guessing it becomes a viable option....certainly if you're vulnerable.

I, for one, will boycott Tracc's Tagliolini, or any other pasta alliteration.

Apologies for that. If it's any consolation I washed my hands afterwards and wiped down the keyboard with antibacterial wipes.

On another matter, not sure if already posted as it's hard to keep up, but heard it mentioned Christian was spotted with the rest of the players today for a belated Mad Monday (or early Wacky Wednesday I suppose). That would be at least some kind of good news in relation to the recent comments about players being unhappy with him and the like.

If true, I would rather all the players be there than some. Nothing worse than if the players fall into 2 factions.

I wouldn’t believe what McRae says. He’s playing poker like all the other feigning “not interested” clubs. Personally I’d like to see him go WC so as we can rescue Harley Reid before Harley starts developing mental health problems. Also will give me incentive to go to more WC games so that I can boo him.
