The Jackson FIX

Wet the beddle?

I have heard Adelaide is the most serious trading partner for Petracca and Dees are targeting 2x within the top 15 of this draft (for which Adelaide will have to get creative).

A 33yo with foot problems… we should make a play for him.

Surely we’d have to keep May… would be cruel to have him miss out on that party

I think a new body is what he needs

Come on Demonland this is a rumours thread! Not an opinions nor a musings thread… Give me some filthy footyrumours!

Or we are signalling that we are willing to fund a fair chunk of his salary in ‘26 in any move.

Me too, from his exit interview I’d say he was invited to explore his options. And probably not much progress has been made so the club has decided to push things along.

Clean and dry your backside like a toilet in Japan

The bank

I think this is more of a kick out the door than that.

Also allows Petty to go back as May departs

Don’t reckon the Dogs would be after a character like May, after the year they’ve had with JUH. I think the Aints are the watch on May, especially with Wilkie talking to the Dogs.

The AFL’s product is at stake here - and we’ve all seen a windy and cold Tassie makes their product look extraordinarily worse on national TV In fact, AFL games in Tassie have been some of the worst conditions we’ve seen our top-tier national game played in. The competition doesn’t need Tassie so if they want in, they need to chip in. If they’re not up for it, let’s carry on as we have for the last ~150,years.

Cannot understand why Carlton would be speaking with him… he is the opposite of what they need.

Silly money for a midfielder who can’t crack North Melbourne’s midfield

I think he is on silly money

Feeling better that he is ‘open’ to quite the range of teams. Wonder if this was the message from the FD to his mgmt: come back to us with a selection of clubs we could do a reasonable deal with this time around.

Do they have enough points for their academy players at the pointy end? This might be the most reasonable deal I’ve seen.

This story is now as cold as the snags Rhys Stanley cooked up on the bbq a club sponsor bought him.

You are dreaming

Bit of chatter in a few different corners about Adelaide being the right fit. They definitely looked a quality midfielder or two short in both finals. Not sure what they have to give us but my god I hope the idea isn’t their first this year and next, that’d feel like a Bailey Smith deal

Would love to know which [censored] teammate is saying this to Jon Ralph (of all people).

I read it more as ‘trade will quietly be explored but will quickly be swept under the carpet if the offers are no good’

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love a list filled with quality $1m players, but sadly that can’t happen.
