List Mgmt. Our Trade/FA, Suburban & Country Town Thread

[sideswipe]

No way is he worth JDG + draft picks. That would be a shocking deal. I rate Petracca, but I rate JDG more.

As much as well all love Jordy, he is about four AAs, 2 club Bnfs and a Norm Smith behind Trac.

 

[JLC]

Only if we change our style. Unless Oleg gets his mojo back, we're really short on flankers with pace - like none.

That might now explain why Markov was given a 1 year contract. Take time off and be with your family but come back ready for next season as we need you.

 

[Pistol Night]

TBH I'd be surprised if Melbourne did any deals with us after we put Trac into ICU and basically killed Brayshaw. I would be surprised.

Ungrateful flogs. Bruzzy brought Brayshaw some flowers. What more can we do?

 

[Bramax]

Well when you put it like that, maybe it's not such a bad idea.

I love the way you think.

You don’t think almost knocking off 2 of their favourite sons shows that WE MEAN BUSINESS?

Petracca is a better player than De Goey, how on earth can you argue that?

 

[Bramax]

A midfield of Daicos - De Goey - Petracca - LDU would be ok

Engrave the cup.

Bloke at work just told me his brother saw Leppa, Pendles, Darcy Moore and Petracca at a cafe having a meeting on Sunday! That would be our new list manager Leppa.

Has to be BS. Why would they meet at a cafe in the midst of a media wildfire when they could easily meet confidentially in a million other private settings

There's a bloke called Josh Daicos that's shown a bit off half back lately. Just saying

 

[Professor Knowall]

Would we be looking at Caleb Daniel?

If so, we would be looking down at him.

 

[Bramax]

At one point this morning Garry in frustration suggested that MFC should hold Petracca to his contract for a couple of years and then attempt to trade him to the new Tassie team. I bet that was noted in the Petracca household.

He’s been banging on about that the last 2 episodes of On The Couch.

Aren't they mates? Not strange for players to go out for coffee with oppo club mates.
The more strange part is Leppa in the mix.

 

[Timmy from Thomastown]

They all left a year later, if someone wants to leave what’s the point in keeping an unhappy player who will just try and leave again the following season.

Yes.

 

[partypie]

Reckon we could get Petracca if we offered:

• next year's Anzac Day game
• one year's free servicing on a snow plough
• a short video on "Insights into a real football club"
• a week's respite care for Max Gawn

Might need to throw in a few lift passes and an artisan cheese board to get that one across the line.

denial: stage 1 of the 5 stages of grief after break-up

denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance

Melb fc will need time to work through the other 4 stages but eventually they'll get there. End of official trade period may hasten stage 3 ..


Reckon Trac maybe ends up at Ess

2MP + 1st rounder + other residual pick swaps, might get it done.

[JLC]

Yes you are right.

Josh is generally a better ball user but lacks the genuine leg speed of a Noble/Markov. But maybe the better ball user makes sense.

 

[Bramax]

Who needs enemies when you have friends like Garry and his big platforms on fox footy & sen to blab his emotional rantings.

Can't imagine how frosty the next encounter between Petracca & Lyon would be. He's making it harder for both parties to mend their ways.

Lyon isn’t doing Melbourne any favours at present.

 

[Anzacday]

It's a strange expression that has always flumoxxed me. Barge poles are used to push the boat away from the thing you want to avoid - so with your view, you'd be better off touching him with a barge pole to keep us away from him.

“Barge-poles are the long wooden poles used to push barges along when the usual power source wasn’t suitable”

 

[Rorzza]

GC will want picks in next years draft to cover what they have coming through junior ranks.

Good work John, buy low and sell high!

 

[sherrife]

People don't seem to understand that getting lynch would only be an option for us if
a) we have spare salary cap room for a year
b) we get a first round pick with it too.

If both those things are ticked then his wage doesn't matter and whether he plays a single game is irrelevant, as it would be a total bonus to the pick purchase.

 

[sr36]

“Barge-poles are the long wooden poles used to push barges along when the usual power source wasn’t suitable”

And to push away from the banks and other vessels.

 

[JLC]

Bloke at work just told me his brother saw Leppa, Pendles, Darcy Moore and Petracca at a cafe having a meeting on Sunday! That would be our new list manager Leppa.

How reliable is this bloke at work?

 

[South of the Yarra]

Plain and simple. Petracca wants to play at Collingwood. Get it done.

 

[Anzacday]

The more strange part is Leppa in the mix.

I thought the Derrimut bit was stranger.
