List Mgmt. Collingwood Trade and FA

[Exambolor]

I can’t believe people are taking a Sam McClure story with any sort of seriousness, the punching bag of the AFL media circles, his colleagues don’t like him lol

 

[sr36]

Well I guess I was going by what Pert & Goodwin said about not letting him leave.

And has anyone asked Harry? According to his manager it's all news to him.

These are all Carlton supporting journo's reporting this too..so they obviously think it's a good swap.

Petracca should be worth more than McKay, but he wants out, so if you can get close enough you'd take it

 

[anshell]

If Petracca wants to come to Collingwood,and that’s a big if,then we just might get him.When players nominate a club they want to move to,they usually get their way.Clubs generally don’t want to hold a gun to a player’s head to make them stay against their wishes.

But i’m just worried that the price might be too high for us to play.Melbourne would want two first round picks at least plus a player.That would affect our rebuilding long term,but it might help us snag another premiership next year,

 

[LuckyLee]

Would you then flip the first in Petracca deal?

Possibly, provided we can retain our future first. I really don’t want to get Trac unless it’s at a discounted price, so that we are winning from the get-go. I have some (mild) reservations about what he’ll be like as a player in 2025.

Care to explain?

Don't know the specifics, but it relates to a clause in his contract and his core reason for wanting to leave.

Effectively he can walk, but he wants things to be done in a less hostile way, so a skewed trade will be the outcome.

 

[Jen2310]

That's the spirit.

At least it gets us to pass the time in the meantime lol

 

[VinnieB]

Listening to Sam Mclure, he sounds like he is making stuff up.

 

[Pleasedontfail11]

Christian Pietracca will join us in the offseason, along with one of his out of favour, contracted, teammates as a salary dump.

Our future first will be the only thing of value going the other way.

Smith or Oliver?

You had me at ‘skewed.’

Who’s the out of favour teammate?

We’d have only had access to one. Like you I think they’d be nice, but it’s completely reliant on our talent ID landing on either of them. For all we know we might have been keen on Philp who was the pick following SDK. The way I’d explain it is the opportunity cost because the players themselves aren’t moving the dial.

Edit: I completely forgot the “Naicos” deal that one stings because even though he didn’t have the year I thought he would Callaghan would look nice in a Pies jumper…

Watch this space, you might be onto something here. He is the perfect fit for our mid mix moving forward. From what I hear GWS have had a contract extension in front for 6 months and does not want to entertain it until later next year. Hearing we have been in his ear for last 12-18 months.

Great, Trac wants to come to us but we can't get it done. His second choice is Carlton and they can get it done. Not sure I could stand Cripps and Petracca in the same midfield

 

[KillerMagpies]

There is talk richmond could have a salary cap of 3M to spare without the likes of Rioli, Bolton etc
Not sure they need to offload Lynch.

Awesome. We don’t need that cripple either.

We missed Judd which hurt, this one would be tough to handle.

 

[Roverjg]

Boz is a credible source…. (Said no one ever)

Graham is an absolute plodder and is a regular Tigs whipping boy

We need to stop targeting slow midfielders that are unable to get their own ball.

He's just spitballing the first thing that comes into his head.
And his head is full of shit.

Max Gawn

Thought this was funny.
Nobody is giving up a high first rounder, even if richmond pay most of his contract.

 

[NMBB]

Esp. seeing we could have drafted Cripps .....

 

[ElliottsMaggies]

Petracca should be worth more than McKay, but he wants out, so if you can get close enough you'd take it

Of course, but does Christian want to go to Carlton? And does Harry want to go to Dees?

As far as I can see, it's only Carlton supporting journo's who are having a wet dream over this scenario.

 

[Eric Shin]

Imagine May’s speech at this year’s BNF if Petracca came to us

Hey I never said anything about whether Harry would accept a trade or not, just saying that I reckon Melbourne would do it in a heartbeat if the offer became reality.

Maybe they would. But they'd have to release their hostage first would be a massive backflip on their numerous statements that under no circumstances would be be leaving Melbourne.

Judd wanted to come to the Pies, but yet again we had no capital at the time and no one wanted to go to WA.
Same with Port and Stevens- he wanted Pies Port wanted a young Didak- no deal.

 

[Roverjg]

25 year old Beams > 25 year old Petracca

28 year old Beams < 28 year old Petracca

It took Petracca a bit longer than Beams to get going. While Beams started to struggle a bit towards the end with niggles.

It took Petracca a bit to get going because he did his knee and missed his entire 1st year and a bit

I think it would be a 2nd. Like you said no one is giving a 1st and Richmond wont use a 3rd rounder. Not that Richmond would need another 2nd with the amount of picks they will end up with. Maybe future 2nd.
