His 'statement' was hardly comforting for Melbourne fans.‘Completely farcical’: The ‘circus’ behind Petracca trade rejection — and $1.7m reason he couldn’t go

If he truly believes in Brand Petracca, then 5 years is too long a contract.
Demons are going to hit a flat spot and visit the bottom half of the ladder in the coming years which means crowds will start to thin out again. It's only a matter of time before Petracca would try to take his brand elsewhere. But $1.7 million sounds pretty steep to cover for any club out there. Crazy.
This is another bullsh*t part of the AFL’s fixture. If they can’t stomach a 17 game season with no double ups, they need to enable a 2 year “rolling fixture”, where each team plays an H&A against every team.

Forget club wishes for blockbuster games every season. Balance it out over 2 seasons. For the set games (ie Anzac Day, queens birthday), this is still manageable - just alternate the home team.
I also hate that we waited until round-24 to play Essendon… but i’ll get on that soapbox some other time!
I've been arguing this for years. I've loosened the idea out to 3 years to play everyone properly home and away. Its not perfectly balanced but feel that still gives the AFL enough manipulation of the fixture while still balancing out as much as possibleThis is another bullsh*t part of the AFL’s fixture.

A Vic club apparently offering Mac Andrew 8 years at 1.5M a year.
St Kilda or Norf? Makes sense for Norf who have no backline

Gerard didn't have Carlton in his seeds today. Goodness me, what is the world coming to.No changes to the seeds in the end, altho for a short while there on Sunday it looked like Hawthorn would be barnstorming their way in!
#1 - Sydney 129% (#1 in attack, #3 in defence - up 3)
#2 - Western Bulldogs 128% (#3 in attack, #1 in defence - up 2)
#3 - Brisbane 125% (#2 in attack, #7 in defence - up 1)
#4 - Greater Western Sydney 116% (#6 in attack, #8 in defence - down 1)
Carlton finally drop out of the seeds in attack. Maybe a bit unlucky, but the model does not take injuries into account. They drop to #5 here. 106%, #9 overall and still #13 (up 1) in defence. They're replaced by Geelong at #4 - 109%, #7 overall and #12 defensively.
On the defence side, St Kilda drop back to #2. 95%, #13 (up 1) overall and #15 (up 2! ) in attack.
Hawthorn drop out of the defensive seeds, after eventually letting a pretty ordinary Richmond team put 68 past them. Back to #5 (down 3) for defence, 111%, #6 (down 1) overall and #10 (down 1) in attack. They're replaced by Melbourne who sneak into #4. 105%, #10 overall, #13 in attack.
The model has us beating Essendon (#15 overall, 91%, #11 in attack and #15 defensively) by 30 points.
I will accept a 16-point win only if we were 35 points up at 3/4 timeGerard didn't have Carlton in his seeds today. Goodness me, what is the world coming to.
Meanwhile my seeds remain as is, but my word it's tight at the top!
#1 - Sydney 129.86% (#1 in attack, #5 in defence - down 2). Leaking 90 points to an underwhelming Adelaide attack arguably not the best finals tune up.
#2 - Western Bulldogs 129.79% (#3 in attack, #1 in defence). Impressive against an albeit understrength Giants team. Just 0.07% separated them reclaiming the top seed!
#3 - Brisbane 125% (#2 in attack, #4 in defence - up 3)
#4 - Greater Western Sydney 116% (#6 in attack, #8 in defence)
With only 6 teams alive this time next week, this will be the last time I do the attack and defence seedings. Do yer own!
Geelong retain their #4 ranking in attack. 109%, #8 overall (down 1) and #12 defensively. Good to see the model doing what it's supposed to, and not getting sucked in by an annihilation of one of the bottom 3 teams.
On the defence side, St Kilda have finished at #2. 96%, #13 overall and #15 in attack. Hawthorn have rebounded back into the defensive seeds at #3 (up 2). 113%, #5 (up 1) overall and #9 (up 1) in attack. Melbourne slip back to #7 with a very poor performance in the final round. 102%, #12 overall (down 2) and #13 in attack.
The model has us beating Carlton (#11 overall, 105%, #5 in attack and #13 defensively) by 16 points.
I have a feeling we're going to bury them.I will accept a 16-point win only if we were 35 points up at 3/4 time
The closer we are getting to the game the more I am thinking that everything will click in this game.I have a feeling we're going to bury them.
That’s finals footyReckon we're gonna see some pretty low scoring games this weekend. Will not be surprised to see no team hit 3 figures. Most teams have been really nailing their defensive structures over the last few weeks.
I doubt only 2000 tickets available unless Ticketmaster/Ticketek messed up big time.Heard this morning that the Geelong management aren’t happy, either because their Members were only allowed to purchase 2000 tickets to the game tonight or their Members weren’t prepared to travel and only 2000 tickets have been purchased by their Members for tonight game.
Either way, that’s pretty shit.
Especially when we will likely have between 10-15k Carlton fans at our game on Saturday night.
Honestly wish we were on that side of the draw. Definitely seems easier to beat the lower of this game than either of the Sydney teamsTom Stewart a late out
