Trade talk - from August 2024

I think had he not come from there it could have been a chance.

Melbourne would be crazy to refuse.

And the result of that was to climb from the bottom four to eleventh. Making sure we stay middle of the pack at best.

They all end up at Carlton.

When is this misery for Essendon supporters going to end.

I can envisage McKay turning down Melbourne though, getting disgruntled and some how ending up at Essendon due to his brother.

Essendon: Petracca
Melbourne: Wright & Tsatas

He won’t go anywhere.

Melbourne will ask for an amount no team will be willing to pay coming off the injury he’s had.

Petracca will still play each week because he’s a very good footballer, and will still play well because he’s an absolute pro, but he just won’t do all the extra stuff for the club he may have once upon a time.

Blues have already said they wont be trading Mckay and that he’s very happy at Carlton i think

Sam Maclure at his rope a dope best this time of year.

Oliver and Trac

Dees should cash in while they can

They feed off each other. My bet would be Goodwin goes before Petracca. Supporters would be a little angry if Petracca goes

If the stories are true that Petracca was forced to return to the field after being injured, does he have a legal case against Melbourne? If so then he has strong grounds to ask to be released from his contract.

Don’t you love this time of year though. Spring around the corner and rumours everywhere.

Not sure if I could handle two Mckays on the list

It’s been well documented that Petracca is open to a trade to either Collingwood, Hawthorn, Carlton or Essendon.

But none of the clubs are willing to give up what Melbourne will ask for, as they have other priorities.

Cal Twomey said that its more likely that he stays

Dees without Trac are porridge, Gawn is not long for the game, and Oliver is one bad week away from a full on cousins it seems.
McKay went through the crap Carlton years, can’t see him signing up for the second wave of Melbourne’s.

That article today about a Trac and McKay trade is just a nothing article full of words like could, may, might, maybe, possibly.
