The heart beats true

Great question. I think we’d have to look very hard at the Eagles list. They can’t afford to be diabolically bad again, so there’s no guarantee they won’t lift themselves up a touch and pick 6 ends up becoming pick 4-5 in 2024. I’d say it’s not worth the risk, they’d need to give us back something else to offset our exposure. Likely a future second.

I like this a lot. He’s different to the guys we lost, who were contest focused - but not as talented as the contest players we have in the middle at the top level. It’ll be a chance to add more skill if we feel we need it.

Do we know his nickname?

Harry Petty’s face has had a good trade period.

Surely this should have been, coincidentally, announced at 6pm on the 29th of October while the Matilda’s are playing The Philippines? Missed a trick there AFL.

Cornes yesterday - ‘Melbourne need to sell Petty while he’s so valuable.’ Cornes Today - ‘Melbourne are keeping Petty. Is he that valuable?’ I don’t take anything he says seriously, because he admits he doesn’t either. It’s just a bit of fun.

Why?

Was there a single trade today across the AFL? Snorefest.

Word is even his mum’s on the fence about him.

I think the universe is trolling me. I just saw Mason Cox in the street. 😑

I think we learn a lot. Need more bigger bodies around the ball against The Crows.

Forward half free kicks are massive in AFLW.

Classy goal!

The umpiring has been horrific this quarter. Completely inconsistent.

Thanks for these updates Katrina. 👌

I just saw JJ on the red carpet on the clubs instagram.

Is Brodie there?

Ghost are playing at John Cain Arena tonight. I was driving down Olympic Boulevard and all of sudden it looked like Halloween, but with mostly middle aged men in too much make up. It’s been a weird week.

Shut the borders Dan! No one out.

That’s weird. I’m convinced @JimmyGadson and Eeyore are the same person. I can’t read your posts without doing the voice Jimmy!

That’s gold.

This. Regardless of what happens I will always love him as a player. He literally changed our club.

I just want to officially be on the record, and have written it down somewhere, that there’s a lot of talk about the work Collingwood have done with De Goey floating about - as if he’s suddenly been cured. I’m not buying it.

That doesn’t stand. He’s never played a game of football at the top level.

The Oliver story is classic click bait. ’Clubs are weighing up whether to make a play…’ - so no club named, no details at all. This is designed to get a huge players name out there and a photo attached to drive clicks. Don’t believe me? Go check out AFL.com right now. Front page - Clarry.
