I trust Glenn McFarlane as a journo. He has been in footy a long, long time and if he says it is happening tomorrow, the lock it in!!!
My brother Olaf is a mad Demons fan with a mate in the Demon's coterie. The suggestion from those in the know at Melbourne is that Petracca will get to Collingwood at the end of 2025 season...
The thought of Perryman, Houston and, perhaps, one other at Magpieland in 2025 makes me very keen for next year... we are being aggressive and thoughtful in the trade window.
I would suggest Tomlinson will be added before 2025 as well
Floreat Pica.
Yeah it's possible.
But I truly believe Pies will have to give up De Goey.
Fans here don't like it. But to get a gun, you need to give up a gun or a lot of picks.
If Melbourne rebuilds, I think De Goey goes to St Kilda for picks. Those picks then go to Melbourne for Petraca.
If Melbourne wants to reload, gun for gun trade.
McCrae wants players who are clean cut and low risk of outside influence. Petraca is as as clean cut star as you can imagine up there with Pendlebury.
De Goey, although has changed, still has off field interests that can rise up any moment.
It comes down to needs.
Pies need to holster up their Midfield with classy decision makers next to Nick Daicos.
DeGoey is a bull but he's not a clean disposal type player in the middle. But Melbourne or St Kilda need a goal kicking part time midfield bull with De Goey.
