Do they have a cap issue?
They shouldn't have, they recently lost a highly paid player who's payout will almost be entirely outside the cap. So picked up a fair chunk of space.

Do they have a cap issue?
Nah. It's quite clear, and on record, that we signalled that we were no longer interested in him much earlier this year. This is the confirmatioon and natural consequence. His salary will have taken a drop too.
I wonder if Melbourne have the funds to sign up Petty because they've got a deal to get Oliver off their books?
With what he's shown this year, shouldn't require much funding.I wonder if Melbourne have the funds to sign up Petty because they've got a deal to get Oliver off their books?
LOL ....Petty doesn't deserve a Contract increase according to you, based on his 2024 outputWith what he's shown this year, shouldn't require much funding.
I wonder whether we'd have another crack at Oliver. Get a proper pre season into him and there's no reason why he can't get back to his best.
Oliver has shown to be 10x the player petty has ever been though.LOL ....Petty doesn't deserve a Contract increase according to you, based on his 2024 output
Yet in the same breath you're advocating getting Oliver, who has been deplorable
Do you not see the double standards here .....Oliver playing his normal role & sucking big time .....Petty a natural DEF being played out of position up forward & in the ruck
It's akin to judging Tex Walker on his year, if he played Full Back
Yeah that helping win a flag thingy. Kind of important detail.Olivier has shown to be 10x the player petty has ever been though.
Oliver has multiple years as an absolute champion of the game.LOL ....Petty doesn't deserve a Contract increase according to you, based on his 2024 output

The overall loss is negligible. Upside is massive.
It would be a smart trade by Port.

Can't ever recall seeing Mattaes sooking it up either on or off the field or giving away senseless frees because he's having a bad day?Negligible? Butters is a top 10-15 player in the league. Phillipou isn’t yet - most likely will be - a top 10 player for the Saints
It would be a decent set back - and Phillipou personality matching up with JHF. Interesting times

I do not see the double standards here, one has a fantastic football resume, the other is Petty.LOL ....Petty doesn't deserve a Contract increase according to you, based on his 2024 output

Did he play junior footy with any of our guys?What player would we "billet" Clarry with? Ben Keays?

2nd rounder given his form and we are taking on his entire salaryWhat player would we "billet" Clarry with? Ben Keays?
He wore poor old Maxxy Gawn down..![]()
Like he did with Christian Petracca? Don’t think that will help.Did he play junior footy with any of our guys?
Would have to have been with the Murray Bushrangers or Bendigo Pioneers because he never made the Vic Country squadDid he play junior footy with any of our guys?
How old?It’s his birthday today too. Hope the club sends him a cake.

How old?
This is tough one.
His best has been top 3 AFL midfielder but how confident are we that he can return to that and how much draft/trade capital do we offer up?
- Known/suspected drug issues
- Form has been a long way off this season. More than i think an interrupted preseason can account for.
- He's on a huge contact with a lot of years remaining.
- Does his age (27) align with our list demographic and when we expect to be competing.
A lot of it would depend on how much salary we’d be paying himThis is tough one.
