Pettifer trade value = 0

Shit happens and had happened before. Will make them realise that they have to make every post a winner as your time in the game could be short - if in doubt ask Coggs.

True, but Cogs has been given numerous opportunities to get back from bad luck injuries.

This would be Kanye's first bad injury and could be dumped cause of it.

Not saying either is right or wrong, just wondered if it could affect the playing groups attitudes and opinion towards the club.

That's the kind of attitude that's had us tearing out our hair for 30 years.

Do you roll the dice before you post?

Players have been looked after pretty well at Richmond. It has been the place where you get paid more for your ability than anywhere else.

No doubt bad treatment of popular players does affect players but it happens each year at all clubs. Dont know how popular he is.

Really bad news for the young bloke. Kayne has had his detractors, but has made some solid contributions at times over the years, especially throughout 2006 where he was in the best handful of mid-size forwards in the league.

For his sake, I hope we have enough scope on our list to retain him. Probably not, so if he is dropped I would not begrudge him "doing a Rodan" and popping up at a club like Sydney or Brisbane in 2010 for 40-50 goals.

Best luck for the recovery Kayne.

I concur Ghost.

given that he is uncontrcted that will be unlikely, he would most certainly have been traded to a club of choice as currency wouldnt be that high..I'd doubt we will retain him , spots are too tight

Was an announcement made by Wallace regarding lots of things in the paper this morning - and he made a statement on Pettifer too.

Pettifer will undergo a re-construction this week, but Wallace expected him to recover for the start of next season.

The 26-year old is out of contract at the ned of the season, but Wallace hinted the Tigers could offer him a deal.

"We've said to Kayne that we'll let him know sooner rather than later. We think that's the only fair thing, but I'm confident we can work something out with him." he said.

I'm impressed by that last paragraph, if it indeed comes to fruition.

I like the intention to look out for our own properly, as if we're a true family club. Not like the spurious approach that Hawthorn take whenever a mid-late age bloke gets a debilitating illness or injury.

Cant remember Ghost. Were you up in arms kicking and screaming the first time or the second time he was dropped this year?

 

[Coach_Required]

Dont like to see things end like this for anyone, but Football is a business these days.

Best of luck Pettifer

Neither mate. I was in full agreement that he be dropped. In fact, immediately after the Collingwood game I even went as far as to say that I hoped he was cleared of his striking charge so that he can actually be dropped. That the message that his game that day (and the previous weekend v North) was not up to the current standards we need to be setting for our team was fully communicated to him.

But Kayne is still a Tiger, and has made some fine contributions over the years. Maybe not all of what we would like to have got from a player we used a Top 10 pick in the ND for, but certainly a whole lot more than what Craig Biddiscombe and Aaron Fiora gave us.

If what Pettifer's shown us so far is all that he is capable of, and that doesn't fit in with our future plans, then we act like professionals and trade him when the time comes. Like grown up clubs do. But I would have liked him to have had the opportunity to move onto another club with full bill of health, for both Kayne's and Richmond's mutual benefit.

Remarkable as it may seem to you, there is nothing which says that we as Tiger supporters have to act in a bitter way towards players who simply aren't up to scratch.
