Redleg

I hope not. He has 2 years left on his contract, so that would be a breach by both him and the Crows..

Saints offered Paddy Dow a 3 year contract, but won't give Carlton pick 56 for him. Wow! Oh, I just remembered, SOS is the Saint's list manager and we know his feelings about Carlton.

Pinstriped.

I would imagine that Lamb and Taylor don't rate him, or he didn't want to play in the same team as his best mate.

Liam Henry just traded to Saints for a F2 and swap of F4's. He is a more valuable and much younger player than McAdam. We have offered our F2 for McAdam. Don't budge Dees, on that Henry trade alone we are overpaying.

Will be 29 next May and only played 50 games.

Or as I suggested, maybe a straight swap for Reid, who may prefer to go home, if WC keep pick 1.

Gunston is 193 cms, just saying. He is taller than all 4 you named.

I am assuming they will fold. We gave a very fair offer compared to some other trades.

Should have him by wednesday.

We have also added Fullarton, who on what I saw in the VFL this year, could be of some help and McAdam, a mid size forward who can take a big grab, might help also. I hesitate to say this, but we also have Schache, though Goody is clearly not going to play him and fwiw, Turner played a scratch match up forward and did well, could he be tried up forward if needed?

Hopefully Gold Trip not running either.

I think I have mixed up some different posters' quotes. So sorry about that. I agree that we keep him and I have a grandson with the same name and photos of them together, which I don't want to devalue by him playing elsewhere, ( that's a poor attempt at humour ). Lets move on.

3 hours ago, deejammin' said: So you’re saying trade him now because he’s crippled and won’t play good footy again? You’re assuming Burgess and Adelaide are stupid and haven’t done their due diligence? He’ll play early next year. Bet on it.

Someone posted " he will definitely be playing early next year". Of course they have the right to say that. Don't get so precious and indignant about my post then, when I express my opinion, on that statement, made apparently without any knowledge of Petty's injury or having any medical training. That is my opinion.

Actually Timothy, I was referring to other posters stating as fact he is 100% fine and will line up early next year. They wouldn’t have a clue and I am not even sure Harrison knows exactly when he will be right.

I love the way people give definite injury statements, when they have absolutely no idea of the injury, or especially any medical training.

Lamb just ended any speculation. 100% Petty staying.

So we pass on Dunston and Duston, what about Gunston?

That is the real question. Lisfranc is a horrible injury and Webber might care to elaborate, but if that is his injury and he has now injured his foot twice, it could be a real problem. My understanding is that Lisfranc injuries can be career threatening. He is a big guy and that makes it worse with more weight on the foot. I wouldn't trade Petty, BUT. I would get 2 top foot specialists to effectively make the decision, is he ok or not. If we did 10, Fogarty or Thilthorpe and McAdam is fair as is 10, 14 and McAdam and very late pick Lions for Gunston for a year or two. We get pick one, get a key forward and have a high pick left.

5th, got out too late. Cox Plate next.

I was at our new training base on saturday. I had a runner in the last.

I believe that's wrong. Contracts are not guarantees of list spots, they are guarantees of payment. We could delist both but would have to pay them out.

Worse than that. Umpire waited for ages and then blew play on. You can see him blow whistle and hear it for play on. Gillard takes one step forward and he penalises her. Disgraceful. He knew he he called play on and then penalises for a pathetic 50 and goal. One of the worst decisions you will see.

If you ever want an example of the media BS that is spouted. Fox Sports headline about Hawks landing a “star”. The star is Chol who struggled to make the Suns side. Really, Chol a star?
