Speculation Christian Petracca [UFA 2029]

[tiger_tough]

Age is irrelevant to a guy like Petracca

He's one of the most professional players

Will play till he's 40 probably

That's what was said about Dusty. The end cam come quick.

When was that ever said about Dusty?

Yeah those trips to Vegas/Ibiza were meant to do wonders for him

Basically the fountain of youth

That he could finish up as a permanent forward well into his mid 30s? Often.

‘Bullet-proof’ Dusty gets to 250 non-stop

When the No.1 player in the game says he’s taking it one week at a time, he means every week. He almost never misses.

Huh? The post you replied to said Petracca could play into his 40s. Anyway not wanting to derail, I now understand what you meant

Yeah well 40s is obviously a bit of mayo and unrealistic. Who was the last player to do that? Dustin Fletcher maybe. A power athlete like Petracca would have no chance.

All g.

Yeah 40 is a bit of a pisstake

But he could play for a very long time if he maintains his preparation and recovery

Boak and Pendblebury have gone for ages

An explosive contested bull like Petracca is exactly the type that you wouldn't expect to have a high quality extended career. No idea what some of you guys are on about

Dusty has won 3 flags, there's nothing left in the tank no hunger, petracca has only 1

Did you watch danger on the weekend? Burgoyne was another that played 400

 

[captain bloodsport]

Pretty traumatic what he went through with the spleen, I'd be wary

 

[Trent the flight Steward]

The only clubs that have the draft hand and possibly be in contention are the sun's freo and maybe crows and north. Unless he's wanting to live interstate there'd zero movement

Lloydy played another 12 years

Danger is a perfect example for what I am talking about. Complete shadow of his former self

Plenty have a first this year and next.
WC will have pick 3 and 11 after Barass leaves
Carlton first + F1 and F2

Teams are good these days an moneuvering picks around.

 

[Tugga27]

We at wce would like to make it happen without selling our draft hand and our youth.

Melb what do we you want? We can give you salary cap relief, a whole list of our 25 plus year old players.

How about:

How about

Oscar Allen/Jake Waterman + TB + Future first + Salary cap relief for Clayton

For

Trac + Melb first round pick?

You're an absolute embarrassment mate.

 

[captain bloodsport]

Don't think Lloydy had surgery to repair it. Petracca said it was the most traumatic experience of his life.
Having that kind of surgery without a GA would be frightening

He’s 29 next season who is TBA coming off a massive injury.

I’ve seen some Melbourne fans tonight compare it to the Judd trade in terms of value.

Judd moved when he was 24.

I wouldn’t be comfortable trading more than a single top 10 pick tbh.

It’s unlikely you get 100 games out of this trade, so the value should reflect that imo.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Bit of noise around Melbourne wanting Will Phillips. Former number three pick, could it be a straight swap?

I heard they need a key forward and the big sphinx Pheonix Foster is in their sights

 

[CatToTheFuture]

Dees should look at getting rid of the coach before Petracca!

Correct

 

[CatToTheFuture]

I just had a technical expert conduct a root cause analysis on this issue and he came back to one thing

Simon Goodwin

Yep,
But I’m still trading pick 2 for him if I’m North. They have been chasing a big Fish for decades and they don’t get much bigger.

I'd be wary about taking him after a serious injury, Dusty was never the same after his lacerated kidney injury he lost a ton of weight & muscle lost his power he had some good games here & there, but he was never consistently dominant again like he had been previously before the injury.

If Petracca wanted out, I think he'd be too hard to move given his contract, coming off massive injury & the fact Melbourne would not want to pay any of his salary to go to another club.

People didn't say that about dusty
