Makes you think they have Keane locked in, or the salary being asked for too highInteresting that we seemed to never be seriously in the hunt to get him. I wonder why not?

Ahh what’s a contract worth these daysYou mean CJ?
He recent re-signed with the hawks
I don't think Trac has anywhere near the same mental issues Beams had.I’m getting big Dayne Beams v2.0 vibes about this whole situation.
Petracca increasing looking like damaged goods, perhaps mentally and physically, yet is at a pristine showroom-condition price in terms of both dollars and picks.
Caveat emptor!

So a normal trade, but with more words. And fwiw, no they wouldn’t be accepting less in a trade just because they’re not paying some of his salary, this isn’t a salary dump.
You've got to remember some of these guys are signing as long as possible to secure their lives; job security, mortgages, etc.
Not everyone will love everything about their club or the city it's in.
But anyway, in all seriousness... at this point Melbourne may as well just merge with St Kilda and be done with it.

I just don't get it either. They seem to pick up one or two players every preseason as do Geelong and Sydney.
Why don't we? And this goes back long before the Treloar debacle.
Some guy on SEN just said Brand Petracca's entire family are mad Collingwood supporters and the family influence will be strong and it would be Brand Petracca's dream to pull on the black & white. This along with the Derrimut cafe meeting is enough evidence to call it.
Welcome to Collingwood Christian Petracca.
In AFL trade period possibly not muchAhh what’s a contract worth these days
I think they learnt their lesson from Bowes. They had clubs lining up to try to get Bowes to nominate them. They didn't need to pay as much as pick 7 to get him off the books.A first rounder for Lukosious? Tell them they’re dreaming.
If Melbourne pay the 1st mil.Surely with Noble and Richards heading out we can find some currency for Trac. We gotta get creative, we can’t let him get to Carlton.
I'm more inclined to think he'll stay. Dees have done him dirty with their leaking to the media, similar to what they did with Oliver."Work needs to be done, and it won’t be easy, and despite all the weirdness, the odds of Petracca playing at Melbourne next year are better than what they were a week ago."
Yeah.I'm more inclined to think he'll stay. Dees have done him dirty with their leaking to the media, similar to what they did with Oliver.
Yet despite this, Petracca was the one who addressed his team mates last week, attended the Dees/Pies game & sat in the box with the rest of the players & was on the boundary to farewell Ben Brown.
They'd be better off moving Roffey, Pert &/or Goodwin on.
Plus he doesn't play as a tall.You mean CJ?
He recent re-signed with the hawks
Not a lot of takers for that bunchThey'd be better off moving Roffey, Pert &/or Goodwin on.
No trades required either. Easy peasy.Not a lot of takers for that bunch
Trac the player is perfect.Players get over stuff pretty quick when an absolute gun walks in the door.
Trac is perfect for us.
Spot on! This is why I'm against it, I don't want us to risk it.Trac the player is perfect.
The trade needed.
The contract 5 years for about 7 million.
The age of 29.
The injury/mental complications.
Are not ideal and could leave us in limbo financially and draft wise for years.
Fly comments on it were spot on imo.
Maybe Roffey won't be there next year.Listening to part of that Roffey interview on SEN - She is more delusional than Hoynie from Champion Data.
No chance he is at Melbourne next season. Might not be with us I concede on that.
No current season stats available
Sorry, I can’t type any slower to assist you with your understanding.I get it and you've added quite a few layers to your original post. If we trade next years first you can guarantee a bottom 3 finish is what you said. Utter nonsense not even factoring in conceivably getting something really good for it. Next years 1 will be traded, the club has a plan and its better than yours, it's just the truth.
Probably because we didn't want to pay overs of 900k+ to lure him away from what the Hawks were offeringInteresting that we seemed to never be seriously in the hunt to get him. I wonder why not?

Might have to get Ben Reid in for a chat with Richards.Richards still unsigned tells me he will be in Teal next season
