Daniel Rioli asked to be traded to the Suns.

They’ll need to offload plenty to fit under their salary cap

I'm not sure he'd play forward when checkers and mcstay are fit.


Howe yes, not Murphy. Lukosius may be tall, but he's not a KPP, that's why he can't nail down a position.

Is he the answer to their problems, or is it just a job for a mate?

He's always been the gold coast where ever we need him player.
Centre half back for us would suit him to a t.

Probably why they are still finals virgins.

He is not a key position player.

Not sure that's the issue.
Like all players you just want to focus on playing one position and getting that right.
I think all his previous coaches have moved him to an area of most need in game.
Lock down defender one minute, then oh we need you at full forward to kick us a score.
Then nek minnut...oh go to a wing we need someone to kick straight to a target.

His best footy should be just ahead wherever he goes. Good get if we get him.
Can't see us getting a Petracca deal done, but hey weird shit happens all the time.

Real weird one that.....

Cant help but feel maybe something behind the scenes was going on. Not sure how you go from being in the best 22 for 19 games and then not worthy of a spot in the 50+ squad. Maybe being 27 years old hasn't helped but surprised by this one.

Jack Hayes not delisted as yet either. Almost certain he will be part of a trade to the Crows.

“Whilst John is contracted, we understand the importance of family and will take this into consideration as we work through the trade period.”


I think he's over-stepping the line.

Petracca, Neal-Bullen and pick swap for Marshall and Houston then Power bring in Lukosius to play 3rd tall forward behind Georgiades and Lord , possibly even throw in Soldo since it sounds like he is now unhappy in SA as a back up for Gawn if Melb throw in decent pick or another player to the deal

Why isn't Petracca expanding his brand by coming out and speaking publicly?

There has to be more to this story and the Melbourne issues than we know.

Don’t think the Crows and probably anyone else would trade for Hayes.

29 next season and has been plagued with injury .Too big of a gamble.
