[Elite Crow]

Can you or someone also post this in the rumour (no discussion) thread for people who only read that

Done, all people need to do is copy the post over to it

She's the token female member so Chappy and his mates can say, "hey, look how progressive our board is having a female on it"

Linda Fellowes

 

[GreyCrow]

She's married to a flog called David Penberthy and thus lost all credibility

Hi David

Adelaide have been talking with Petracca.

Strangely, I overheard someone talking about exactly this on my train the other day. I suspected it would come up on here. I have no idea who this bloke on the train was, but it wasn’t your standard bullshit nuffie conversation, put it that way.

Did he talk back

 

[Crow till I die]

For a midfield role. Doesn't like playing forward and we have offered him a role in the midfield. We have had a hard on for him since his draft year.

Is he not a lot like greenwood in terms of how he plays?

 

[Thetrader15]

Hamish loves him.

I've suddenly changed my mind

God no, that guy is the epitome of Melbourne.

He has the talent, but is mentally weak and consistently goes missing when the pressure is on.

Very much in the mould of Jack Watts, could be anything but lacks the killer instinct and mental toughness to be an elite player.

And would cost a fair bit in a trade

Does he still live with his mum?

 

[huludicidal]

Wierd, don't think that's a good fit for the club or the player.

I disagree.

We have been playing the likes of Douglas in a half forward flank role, which clearly indicates that we have no viable half forward flankers on the list not named Tom Lynch.

It’s a need for us. Dees have reported interest in Jenkins. Maybe they would like Atkins too considering their glut of inside mids. Petracca’s value has never been lower than it is right now.

Moneyball.

If we promise to play midfield, and we play him in the Half Fwd role, it’s not going to end well for anyone.

I have been underwhelmed with Christian but as a swap with JJ I could manage to hope he becomes better

 

[radiojake]

I just texted my mate who works at Melbourne about Petracca.. his response

"Petracca leave his parents? I I'm more likely to kick 8 goals from the backpocket"

my mate isn't kicking 8 goals from anywhere...

Melbourne would definitely want their pound of flesh for him.

If that is the type of player that we intend to give up Pick 3 for then my membership will be microwave bound.

I wouldn't pick Christian as an Adelaide kind of person on what I've heard.

Does his Mum or Dad know anything about coaching?

We have been after him for years. Asked Melb for him in the trade for Lever if I remember rightly.
Hes not someone I would go after, but neither was Gibbs.

Are all the mummys boy comments close or other issues

 

[TexForPM]

The AFL uses a Points system to determine the Levels of Compensation, They start at the position a player is rated and surprisingly Jacobs is still rated in the AFL at a reasonable level as a ruckman.
Then for added Pionts, they take into account the Length of Contract, Level of Payment base rate evenly spread over the term of the contract ASA not included. And Becasue he is restricted and previously top 10 there is some extra points.
Unfortunately, we miss out on any age points as he passed 30.

History points to RFA's earning compensation.
So FFS do some bloody research Wikipedia does not explain all the rules. The AGE has a few good articles about Compensation and why some get it and other miss out, suggest you look.

You are flat out bullshitting mate, and it’s pathetic.

COMPENSATION

A club that has a net loss of players transferring to/from other clubs as free agents in one transfer period is entitled to compensation via National Draft picks allocated by the AFL.

The compensation formula produces a points rating for players based on:

1. The new contract of the free agent;
2. The age of the free agent.

Draft picks are allocated to clubs based on the net total points for free agents lost and gained during the transfer period.

Draft picks will be allocated to one of five places:

• 1st round
• end of 1st round
• 2nd round
• end of 2nd round
• 3rd round

In applying the formula, an expert committee reviews the formula outcomes. The committee has the power to recommend alternative outcomes to GM – Football Operations where the formula produces a materially anomalous result.

Big opinion of himself to go with the "close" family.
