Reckon Petracca wants out and they're going with a Melbourne fantasy of getting an equivalent back.

The McKay stuff is fantasy stuff, but the fact that Petracca has told them in an exit interview he wants to leave, and is getting icy looks from teammates at functions - is huge news.
It will all come down to if Petracca formally requests a trade and nominates a team. If that happens, and if its us, we hold all the cards, and it won't be McKay.
What are they going to do? Keep him at the club where some of his team mates are turned on him, he doesn't want to be there and they're paying him $1m? No way.
Well bad luck Trac, you've signed a lucrative 7 year contract(similar to Houston), now you've changed your mind.
Petracca wants out and a star Blue could unlock his potential trade
Despite public guarantees from Melbourne that Petracca would not be traded, the Norm Smith medallist reminded his teammates on Saturday night, and the club during his exit interview on Monday, that he wants to play for a rival Victorian club in 2025.www.theage.com.au
Sounds like a Demons' fantasy
And some hare-brained journo thinks Harry, with his binding, recently signed long term contract would suddenly prefer to be at Melbourne, **** off.
You sign a long term contract, then the club and player are obligated to see it through.

I bet the talk of Harry or Charlie is just some bluster from Melbourne big wigs

Would be on similar crazy levels to releasing Josh Kennedy for Judd.

I see you watching me watching you
Iām sure Harry would love to play in front of 16k fans each weekā¦..garthp!!!

If Petracca wants to leave, it would take a top 5 pick equivalent.
His age being the only thing which reduces the value.
I can't see it working for us

Re: McKay - agree - I'd like to look like Brad Pitt but it ain't going to happen.
Good get from McClure on Petracca getting frozen out and maybe wanting to be a Blue but then to just throw Mckay as the 'name' is just sensationalism.
It's like Sam has read the Demons Big Footy trade page and taken the 'Give us McKay or GTFO' as some form of credible info.
No, it would be orders of magnitude worse

Harry is untouchable, Iād lose Curnow before I lost Harry.
But both are untouchable. 2 Coleman medalists are pretty hard to get, if you find you donāt trade them.

Dan Houston wants to play for us. Would rather we invested in him.
Cerra and picks and i'm in.
We don't need a half back flanker more than we need an explosive mid.

They can want those two.. it doesn't mean we would trade either of them and we won't. If the reports of his situation being untenable with his teammates (only rumour from the article at this stage) are true then he can't go back next year and we'd know that. They'd have to trade him or risk fracturing the group. How have things become so messy there.. what a debacle.
By the way Essendon have delisted Nick 'Better than Saad' Hind.
also elite users which Dan is

Everyone wants to play for us and why wouldnāt they
It is rear vision mirror stuff when SoS has been gone 5 years. SoS was not perfect but I don't think Austin has been much better. Infact before the last 2 weeks with the performance of Lord, binns and Moir, Austin has been disasterous
FWIW SoS: Cotrell, Owies, Pittonet, Newman, Kemp + TDK

I donāt know what version of Petracca will be playing next season. I wouldnāt even be sniffing at it unless we get to see him play at a high level again.
Petracca is just getting sucked in to a saviour narrative once again. Please No.

If true, then they may lose out in gaining a maximum deal Melbourne
Give up Harry before Charlie
