Definitely looking like a future pick for McAdam if we can't wrestle Petty free. And the Haynes rumour suggests it probably isn't happening.
I think it'll be McAdam for F2, but I've always thought that.

I'd also love to do Himmelburg and 20 for Haynes and 7. Bring it on.
 
We've surely got heaps of cap room?

Gone after Day, Redman, Oliver and missed out
Doedee gone, McAdam likely going

Not to mention Sloane playing for the bare minimum...

Well, if we're offering Petty $1m and now going after Haynes who is on over $1m next year, then yes, we have plenty of cap space. We just don't know if we have space for both.

Assuming MELB finish top 4 in 2024....that still makes it pick F32 at best, and that's B4 it blows out with compo picks, academy, and father/son .....not good enough for McAdam
 


Like seriously? It’s unbelievable this moron gets paid by so many for his opinions

Cornes did qualify the comment ....ADEL would never do the deal

It's all premised on what Petty has "supposedly" been offered .....you know, like we offered Redmen $800K PA

Unfortunately for Kane, as usual, his logic is also flawed. It doesn’t address a need for Adelaide at all.
Tex has 1 or 2 years left and so if we traded Tillthorpe and McAdam to Melbourne, we would have Fog as our only key forward, while having Worrell, Butts, Murray, Keane and Petty as key backs.

Depends how definite he is on going.

Not sure anything better than that is very realistic. That's about what Taylor Adams went for, and there's only a year difference in age.
 
It was interesting to hear Dodoro mention that he only expects about 40-45 picks in this draft

That's been the talk for a while, that's why 3rd round picks are almost worthless unless you need points and clubs are not interested in low second round.

For us McAdam has to be a future pick otherwise there is no point.

It's annoying that we've constantly lost players for money but now we have money, no one wants a bar of us.

Are we that stinky?

I don't get why people think what we are offering Petty is overs. He is 23 year old premiership player who can play a key position at either end. Also no flight risk come free agency.

Port would be all over him if they hadn't already committed to other players. We will have to outbid them next year.

Yep ....who would you prefer ..Ratugolea or Petty?

No contest really .....Petty by a mile
