That is literally exactly what Mutineer said.

All you can do if you want to make a direct comparison is both players at the same age, against their peers.

Petty has been fine over the last three years, and now has a foot injury. There's no reason to think he'll be better than O'Sullivan - just more ready now (assuming he comes backat 100%).
“There's no reason to think he'll be better than O'Sullivan - just more ready now (assuming he comes backat 100%).”

Which was the entire point of my comment in the first place..

Petty is worth using pick 10 on… over using pick 10 on a fresh new draftee..

Petty has proven he's an AFL standard player. O'SullIvan has proved nothing with respect to ability to compete at the highest level.

Perry’s proven he is AFL standard at Melbourne with May and Lever leading the back line

Massive risks if he comes to us without that level of support around him
 
I would love to share a rumour but apparently I'm utensil blocked by the mods, do I need to be a part of the boys club to join lmao 🤣
How can you post in here, but be blocked from posting a rumour?

BTW, the boy’s club is for the local nerds.

I’m in the cool club.

Connor O’sullivan could be nothing more than a huge kid looking a million bucks against all the smaller lads in his draft year… and made to look even better because his draft year is full of spuds…

We all know this years draft pool is miserably shallow..

If I’m giving up our pick 10 for a KPP… I’m giving it up for Petty over a draftee..
Agreed, Petty is a known quantity. If we are going to give up pick 10 for a KPD, I'd much rather it be for Petty as he already has the runs on the board.

One of the KPD draftees could end up as a much better option, and they could also end up as another McAsey...

Is Petty really a known quantity?

Has he been THAT good? He's had fantastic players around him, certainly. He's had a pretty serious lisfranc injury. He's been pretty anonymous in a few of the games I've seen, though there's a lot I haven't.

I get the fact we're looking for someone who can contribute soon, but this draft DOES have a lot of quality talls, so we'd want to be confident.
 
A rumour, a rumour, my kingdom for a rumour.

He's a known quantity as a quality defender.

He is an unknown quantity as a forward, given he hasn't played much up forward.

Definitely has footy smarts.
 
Given Pies have switched their interest from Billings to Schultz, why are we not considering Billings?

We could do with another experienced midfielder/forward.
