Petterd trade

[fronkalicious]

Hey guys

Dogs fan here.

Was a huge fan of Petterd 18 months ago. Whats happened to him and what would you want from the dogs in a trade?? I'd like to see us make a play for him at the end of the year

3rd rounder? or a player swap. I think he could go to the Suns back home but

upgraded pick/s

What's happened to him?? Why do you guys think he's dropped off the pace so much?

You can have almost anyone on our list by the way.....

I don't think he was ever that great, he just seems to have a lot of potential and attributes that should see him become a solid player. I'd have to guess it could be a work ethic issue, which doesn't make him that much different to the rest of the team over the past few seasons. Writing is on the wall though

This. Would trade our 13-14~ compo pick + Petterd to someone like Richmond for pick 8 or whatever they get. Depends how much higher we could get, i spose.

Could also be a few Gold Coast kids coming off their rookie contracts looking to come home/go elsewhere?

I still like Ricky and think he could be a good player in a good team.

Just seems to have no worth in our new system - maybe Neeld doesn't rate his attitude.

Somebody who can mark in the goalsquare in the last second against Collingwood.

(Yes, I am aware that Ricky was probably our best that day).

Really the only standout game he's ever played IMO.

round 1 2011, nearly won it for us as sub

was on track for a 40+ goal season in 2010 before his shoulder... remember him tearing it up against brisbane...

He had a lot of credits in the bank with us supporters because that shoulder injury (Rd 6 2010) cut short a fantastic run of form that really showed us what he was capable of. Unfortunately those credits have now run out, and he doesn't look like reaching those heights again any time soon (i.e. not at the MFC).

Higgins for Petterd and pick 13 (or however it turns out)?

Would want a serious medical exam before that went through... looks good from our end though I reckon.

 

[Tulip]

Good. Two Sylvia's!

A Sylvia in a team is like a highlander - there can be only one.

 

[rhaz]

Never ever to Higgins. Grimes and Sylvia burn us enough with injuries already.

I don't think his work ethic is good enough. Could easily get a game with Bailey, but Neeld has a philosophy where players have to work hard to earn their spot. If it weren't for our injuries he wouldn't of gotten any games this year.

 

[Dory_77]

Like almost everyone on our list, he's shown 'signs' that he could be a decent player; e.g. his run in early 2010, and getting 13 (THIRTEEENNNN!!) F50 tackles against the Tiges one time. However, despite those highs there's been a fairly long trough. He's definitely got talent, but doesn't ssem to be able to string good form together for a whole season.

Higgins for Petterd and pick 13 (or however it turns out)?

Wouldn't trade pick 13 for Higgins let alone pick 13 + Petterd. That's ridiculous.

 

[Demon Revival]

Petterd in exchange for Prestia...

 

[clark_the_messiah]

the Dogs will offer a 2nd rounder but Neeld will reject is cos he wants to keep Petterd and use him in the midfield

it worked great with Bate

I was being sarcastic...

How does one denote sarcasm when on a phone? Or light-heartedness.
