BLWNBA

Just patiently waiting for this bad-boy to hit the double century.

Correct - it was noted that we ideally wanted Robey to keep a low-profile in the lead up to the draft. Unfortunately for us, he's had numerous head-turning performances since our initial approach that have caused his name to be lit up on the boards of national recruiters.

This wasn't directed at you mate. But there's multiple posters across various threads taking issue with things being posted, because it's not in the media, but having previously shouted down any media reporting linking our own to another club. It's tiresome.

Yeah there's definitely a few examples of that... Jake Bowes, Brodie Grundie, Treloar, Mitchell (Hawthorn to Collingwood). It's definitely the closet thing we have to pick purchasing as it stands.

This is hilarious. Half the people complaining about this saying there's no truth to it as the story hasn't appeared in the media were the same people banging on that the media were bullsh1tt1ng about Oliver and Petracca not being at the club next year. When it suits, am I right?

Without a player involved or another draft pick? No, that's not permissible. There's been a concept floated where a club could sell a draft selection for cash (i.e. cap space), but under current rules this is not permissible.

'R-O-B-O-T, robot building supplies!' Never forget.

We’ve expressed interest in him throughout the year. It’s entirely possible this is accurate.

That’s my bad mate, I’ve missed that. Apologies from my end!

You might want to listen again mate, he is asked (with reference to Collingwood) “what do you like about them?” He replies, “what do I like about them? Ahhhhh, I like them better than Melbourne. That’s for sure.” AFL trades wrap: Clayton Oliver takes brutal shot at Melbourne, three clubs involved in Starcevich move

Absolutely, I think it’s a pretty exciting time if this eventuates.

Few posters may need a welfare check after this.

Bizarre.

I may have this wrong as I was listening at work, but I thought it was in reference to younger players they can see going through the midfield. But the comment contextually went on to be talking about the younger talent coming through in general.

There's no insult, you just seem incredibly triggered every time I state that Petracca won't be at the club - almost to the point of fixation. I actually find your replies often either strawman, or aren't even responding to a point of contention I've made. Petracca + 24 for 7 and 8. Personally I'm actually not that perturbed by what we get, I think Petracca is extremely overrated, especially in his current form.

Are you genuinely okay?

This is facetious.

Liam Pickering on trade radio?

Cherry picking at it's finest. Maybe take this in the totality of my comments, with particular reference to my comment today that I am steadfast that Petracca will not be at the club next year.

Unsure on WC, but suspect there is very little chance Richmond would go for that.

I'm not sure I'd characterise it as superficial, though I think he may be agnostic about Petracca being at the club next year. It can be a little bit of 'column A' and also a little bit of 'column B', we're walking a bit of a tight-rope on this one.

King and Petracca have been in contact, with another meeting this week. The relationship is amicable. Whilst I'm steadfast that he won't be at the Club next year, I wouldn't exactly put him and the situation into the Oliver / May mould.
