They told Petracca they wouldn’t be trading him and he pussed out. If he wanted out he needed to go to arbitration but clearly he just took it on the chin.
Lost a bit of respect for him tbh.
He clearly wanted out and then rolled over

Yep. Things may well be different in 6 weeks time, but this is 100% damage control due to the Roffey train wreck.
Carefully worded from Petracca.
What's Finbar up to these days?
Yeah,nah..... relieved because he sounds like such an entitled flog
Absolutely, the wording and specifically timing, is everything.
I'd do 2 years. Could be a VG Impact player.
Has done pretty well this year and would be damaging for us considering he has 2 keys to take most of the heat.
Also shows he has no love for * if he's willing to look elsewhere for 1 additional year.
Don’t go early.
A few others may need to pull their head in at Melbourne now. Petracca put it all on the table and Melbourne have chosen who they’re backing. Anyone that asks to leave from here will be for ‘cultural reasons’. We need to steer clear.

Nah more like Carlton said no & Collingwood don’t have the required picks to get a deal done

As much as I like Trac, he’s 29 and is as slow as our other midfielders. Not the point of difference we need. Would have been handy forward though.

What was posted on social media yesterday Wickz?
I think we do. I think the hard edge he plays with is just what we need. I don't doubt he's be a good contributor to our on-field performances if he keeps his skin folds under control.
And he can kick them on the run outside 50, which we struggle to do.
I honestly don’t think anyone could get a trade done here without burning their own castle down

Realistically, no contending club could get this deal done, not this trade period anyway. Hence why this will most definitely be revisited imo.

Ok … so it’s Stringer then?
You also don’t know how he will return after such a serious injury
This isn't over imo. This will be a huge watch for the next 12 months and we've got to sort our shit out big time.
I saw this as pure and simple there just wasn't any appropriate deal out there that suited the Dees so Petracca had no choice but to stay.
I have no doubt we'll be discussing similar stuff this time next year if we don't make finals.

I'm actually pretty pleased he is staying for next season. Taking the best player out of their side would cruel them. Hoping his decision to stay comes with a few strings so they can make the necessary off field changes, and hope our team stays in touch so we can nab him next year if things don't improve.
