List Mgmt. Drew Petrie, do we go after him? (poll added)

[Duggy31]

With our tall forward stocks remarkably thin, and a huge amount of salary cap that needs spending, I think Darcy and Mason would benefit greatly from having a guy like Drew around the club.

If he was keen to play on, should we offer him a year?

If cloke goes and Petrie is prepared to play for minimum chips on a 1 year deal til we land the 'big fish' from the sunshine state ..

It's a good thought. With only Jesse White, Moore and Cox next year we might need some depth.

However, I'd much prefer Harvey. Delist Blair. Sign Harvey. Can provide so much more.

Disagree, our midfield isn't an issue, and Harvey isn't going to replace Blairs pressure acts.

Needs basis says Ferrito and/or Petrie of the 4 delisted.

Isn't this guy bereft of confidence? Could barely get his hands to pick up the ball in the last game we played. If we're losing cloke and picking up this stopgap to fill the void i'll lose any faith in the recruiting department.

Confidence only takes a week to regain. And at least when he has confidence he kicks them dead straight.

Even a confident Travis sprays them left, right and out of bounds

Trade Cloke and pick up Petrie for free makes sense.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Yeh, nah.(edit maybe yeh actually if cheap.)
Unless really cheap. As these things go.
Then again if cheap why not for experience etc.

Pricing the determinant for me.

 

[RupetFan]

No. God no. No. NOOOOOOOOOO.

Petrie is bloody more cooked and worse then Cloke.

 

[TW Sherrin]

petrie has been cooked for a long time.

Recruit Drew Petrie;

NO, just no.

 

[MagpieJoel]

No.

 

[Sco80]

No. Harvey or ferrito could bring something but I doubt it. Not for us.

 

[Saintly Viewed]

Petrie on the cheap, mentoring roll for Darcy.
Sounds ok.
I'm pricing based on Petrie. Cheap why not?

Agreed, Petrie is a witches hat once the opposition backs take it away, Harvey is not needed, Dal Santo ditto and Firitto does not fill a need so I would stay well clear of all of them.

Only if Cloke goes.

You wouldn't take a nicely priced Harvey?
He gets lots of ball still, plays to high levels still, could go well half forward area, mentor our young ones, has great preparation, leadership by application.
If we got him cheaply (as we would) he is worth plenty for a year or two.
If he bombs, oh well, worth the punt.

He is worth more in 2017 then say Macaffer was worth 2014 to this year.
More valuable than Blair, than Golds, Thomas.

I'm assuming he'd come inexpensive, low draft pick, and say 300 k or so a year.
Anyway that's my take.

 

[FuManchu]

No no no no no no

 

[Apex36]

No.

 

[PicaBoo]

Only if Cloke goes.

That can be arranged.

 

[Smoky]

OP obviously hasnt watched Petrie play this year.

I'd rather Carey get a one year deal.

Wayne or Jim.

Are we really running with an internet rumour that on the eve of the finals the Kangas have told players that they are not required next year?

You mean the Internet rumour that Brad Scott confirmed at his press conference?

Maybe it's just here say?
