Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver in 2026

Featured Replies

If Buckley gets the gig, should he sit Petracca down give him both barrels & see if he wants to be at the club & if so offer him the VC with the promise of Captaincy in 2027?

Yeah no-one is going to take on his full salary. He might agree to a big cut to move and we might get full relief that way. Better to keep the devil we know IMO.

Probably not but that should be the focus on any trade. Don't worry so much about what we're getting back, worry about clearing the cap space.

Would not be surprised Oliver will end up at Richmond . Rich. gets Oliver plus our 2 nd ,Melb gets pick 3 and rich 4 th rounder.

North will get Lever for their 2nd rounder min plus a 3rd rounder.

Essendon will get Fritsch and possibly Jefferson and our 2nd rounder via Nth plus Ess. pick 7 and a 4th rounder.

Laurie might be used as steak Knives.

Melb might get L.J or Freo's Darcy for pick 7.

Hopefully we can make a play for Port's Georg... 2x 2nd rounder and a future 2 nd rounder.

All of the above are on my WISH LIST.

 

I'm a keep for both as I think the new coach should have at least one year to work on getting them back to near their best.

Hopefully Hawthorn lose next week and believe they are one big bodied midfielder away and target Petracca.

My view is we need to shake up the midfield with a bit more polish and we are stuck with Viney and Oliver.

The new coach should get a say in this decision but not the final say. The impact on our salary cap to trade Viney or Oliver would be crippling.

May is another player we could look to move on from and potentially the Dogs would see him as the missing link for them. He was looking like he was done in the last two weeks and I am not sure he is in our window even if he is able to regain form next year.

I was thinking this as they watched Rayner tear them a new one in the second half last night,

I also agree that the Dogs failings should see May overvalued by the Dogs to try and stay in the mix with Bevo there and Bont still at his best.

Grain of salt warning!

Mentions both Clarry and Trac (Trac’s management says he’s “happy and invested”).

Jake Nial just mentioned on the Real Footy Pod, that: "Hawthorn are one of the clubs thats most aggressive around Harley Reid and they're also lurking around the Christian Petracca situation"

I love how you have thought about this but there is no way the Tigers will involve pick 3 in any deal for Oliver

Confused Thinking GIF


I want both to stay, a more upbeat fast game plan and i reckon we see these two play much better football.

I have changed my mind the last few weeks. Keep both. Keep them happy + invested. A better gameplan and a big preseason focused on skills and fitness and these two will be back to their best. Would hate to see them regain form at another club.

Butters to the Dees. Huge

I can’t believe someone would watch a footy panel show at 10pm

Awesome!

But who what where?

What do we trade?

Just a guess but based on the graphic.

Petracca to Carlton

Walsh to Port

Butters to Dees

🤪

If we were to lose Petracca you would definitely take Butters!

This has come from a mind of an absolute genesis. Thank goodness for 'Land.

According to ch. 7 Hinkley will be offered a gig at Hawthorn and will lure Butters across. By all accounts they are very close, Hinkley is like a dad to Zak.

Why single out just this one? 😁

I think ch 9 will play a rerun of last years Dees segment to save on production costs and McClures skyrocketing salary due to his ‘no-miss’ record in trade news over the last 5 years.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

  • POSTGAME: Richmond

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
