Rumour 2023 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 37!, 1 (busted) BIG FISH ALERT last October 9th) (9 confirmed! 17 Busted!)

[BACCS]

I guess Petty has figured that Melbourne are still closer to a flag than the Crows next year, but 2025 and beyond? Potentially a different story

 

[Crowbling]

He said melb made it,s decision not him ? He wants to come home

Not to mention he had a round of golf that the media somehow found out about with two players from the team he is trying to be traded to.

The best thing he said about the Demons is that he is happy to be on an afl list

 

[BACCS]

I can’t imagine Melbourne are happy with that interview, maybe a last ditch ploy to force them into a trade this year?

Id say that may be the case to force the issue , maybe his manager set this up ?

Wouldn't him publicly asking for a trade go a long was l way to doing that?

This all just feels like made for TV drama without it

 

[rabidcrow]

This doesn’t make any sense unless they played Juniors together. There is a 1% chance this might not be over

They went to school for 2 years with each other and are very good mates. (Fog and Petty). Petty also played school footy with Hinge

He obviously wants to play for us, would be petty of the Dees to not trade him tomorrow.

14 + F2 should be the deal..He is a good player, not a topliner and 14 + F2 is a pretty strong offer

I'm fine with 10 and a F2.

 

[CrowToon]

That's kinda less than ideal optics imo.

Channel 7 interview:

He loves Melbourne, loves the players, loves the coaches, loves playing for the Red and blue. Might be there more than 2 years if he plays well.

They should trade him tomorrow

But they clinging onto winning a flag next year

So they should. Flag windows are short anyway and given he is contracted for 2 years not surprising they held firm.

If Melbourne can’t get Oliver back to his very best, their window is already closed.

Feels like he has asked behind closed doors and Melbourne have shut it down pretty quickly

Will be interesting if we have one more throw of the dice

Look forward to seeing how Damo spins this into being the fault of the Crows.

wants to go home, and the Crows are willing to pay him substantially better and trade overs for him. But the Melbourne Football club are clearly holding him against his wishes.

Then....... F**k Adelaide, and F**k Petty, serves them right for not being Victorian

Yeah true but they have gone out in straight sets 2 years in a row and appear unsettled

It could happen but I’m thinking not

 

[Amacca 23]

If we pull this off its been a good trade week and would eh then go ?

[1990crow]

Holding a player ransom, that is already mentally gone, is never a good look when aiming for a flag.

Then you combine this with the Oliver and Grundy fiasco coupled with their humiliating straight sets exits, Melbourne is in a state of disrepair.

Karma is a bitch. Say hi to Lever for us.

Petty is a professional. I'm petty sure Danger wanted to be at Geelong in 2015.

 

[George Kramer]

This isn’t that encouraging for us

He can still play for and love red and blue.

 

[Brett Cummings]

Melbourne are being pretty pathetic. Petty clearly doesn't wanna be there. You can tell from his body language.
