It's alright mate, once he's got a sexual assault/racism/bullying/sexism/match-fixing charge, he'll be ready to head to Collingwood

People in glass houses and all that...

Good call. Hey hows Mick Turner going?

Hopefully attracting some more former Falcons back...we clearly don't have enough yet!

This is all become DC Browne said the pies were clearing cap space to pursue free agents like Petracca even though hes contracted through to end of 2022. :drunk:

And I want a night with Dua Lipa, I've cleared out all the girlfriends and flings for her.

Thanks for making me feel old I have no idea who that is. Sounds like a bloke?

Don’t be surprised that the Pies had a motive in the recent clean out .
Not sure petracca wi resign with the Dees and the Pies are into him

As far as shit threads go, this one has to be right up there.

If he wants to play finals footy regularly he won’t be doing it at Melbourne. Nobody would have wanted to touch the guy for 6 years as he has done sweet FA. Finally realized some of his potential and justified his draft number, had a good year and now everyone thinks he is the next big thing. Let’s see if he can back it up. 1 swallow doesn’t make a summer

Will be interesting to see how he goes if we return to longer quarters and less interchange.

Petracca would have been one of the major beneficiaries of the rule changes this year - he's all power. Guys like Ben Brown, Brad Hill, Blicavs, etc. i.e. endurance beasts, didn't have the greatest years as a rule.

That's why I think that the teams that picked up endurance athletes in this trade period - e.g. Ben Brown (Mel), Tom Phillips (Haw), Isaac Smith (Gee) - have bought low and will be pretty happy with their acquisitions.

longer quarters mean Petracca will just spend more time forward

Not an issue I would have thought

Aren't the Pies paying Cox 500K?
Petracca will be asking for 2million if that is the case.

How many good finals has The Trac played?

Oh burn...

Petracca would take one look at the situation with Treloar and co and be like OH HELL NO I AIN'T GOT NO TIME FOR THAT!!!!

They want him now, but in 2-3 years time he'll be punted for the next big target.

I meant as in why would any one want to go to pies with the way they are with players at the moment

Of course Pies want Petracca.
So does Adelaide, Brisbane, Carlton, Essendon, Freo, Gold Coast, GWS, Geelong, Hawthorn, North, Port, Richmond, St Kilda, Sydney, West Coast the Western Bulldogs.
Only problem is he's contracted for another two years and I can't see Melbourne trading him. Why on earth would they?

Not sure Richmond does

Interesting thought.

schmuttt · Dec 1, 2020

Whilst this rumor is laughable I'd say we'd have a few players with an eye on the door if we miss finals again next year (And I wouldn't blame them).

Melbourne will play finals before Freo will be.

Starting in 2021.

Lampers · Dec 31, 2020

Petracca is a “mummy’s boy” so I really can’t see him choosing to move interstate permanently. To another Melbourne based club, perhaps, but that’s on Melbourne to make the club attractive enough that he doesn’t want to seriously contemplate it.

I met a bloke in a coffee shop who said he had some inside word on Trac. Apparently Demons have done quite a bit for him to get his off field distractions in order too so that could’ve built up some additional loyalty.

Big Bryza said:

Oh burn...

What? Big Mason's whole 10 touches over a finals series (2 games)

V's

Tracca's 68 touches over a finals series (3 games).

Meh, would rate him any day in finals over the big Seppo Cox.

markm106 · Jan 1, 2021

Petracca is built for finals footy. Just need the club to get there on a regular basis.

Maybe Petracca wants to get to the Doggies - proven pathway is to go via Pies first.

As long as Pies pay $300k a year of his salary.

Would be a great replacement for Pendles.
