AFL 2025 Silly Season

[stan]

Looks like Melbourne are rolling out a no DH policy, better late than never I guess.

Oliver is on his way to sydney (not sure which club or even if he's meeting them, just know he's on his way)

Saw him at the airport?

Telling the reporters to **** off
He hasn’t learnt much over the years has he

Mitch Cleary was bit of a tool about it though.

Tom Morris :

Christian Petracca has chosen the Gold Coast Suns.

[Fricky]

Do the Crows put effort into Oliver now? Although it appears the Giants are front runners

Logan Mc to WCE. Curnow to Sydney

Trac will end up on the GC

Every club talks about how important culture is, given the way all 3 Melbourne players who have been advised to look elsewhere have conducted themselves at various times they come with a massive risk associated with them and for mine, in order of most risky :

Oliver
May
Petracca

Adelaide should go hard for Merrett, watching the clips from last night's B&F was like watching a hostage situation...

Interesting from Cal Twomey…

Christian Petracca wants to be traded to Gold Coast.

Adelaide walked away from the prospect of a trade for the superstar Demon.


Wonder why they walked away?

[wenchbarwer]

Too much money maybe?

Melbourne have offered to pay $700k of Oliver's deal which means they're not paying anything of Petracca's wage, so Adelaide would take on the $1.2-1.5m and have to trade capital they don't have.

Geelong have signed Hawthorn free agent James Worpel.

Which option do we think?
1) - Crows didn't want to pay a decent amount at trade table + $$ to Trac
2) - Reid, Nicks & co are idiots and didn't want him
3) - Didn't actually pull out but are pushing that narrative

Think Flanders will end up at Melb now as well, will make the trade somewhat easier for GC
