Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
I will give you O'Keefe, he has been the measuring stick for forward flankers for the last few years.
But Kayne has averaged more possesions than Ebert and Jones, although less goals than both (not very suprising in top 4 sides), suggesting he is working harder up the field, and calling Travis a flanker is a stretch. However Kayne has the same average goals and more possessions than Travis so I would suggest he aint nearly as bad as you and Claw think he is.
I understand neither of you like him, but your predjudice is clouding your ability to make a rational judgement.

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
So Pettifer has kicked a few goals in our 2 win season, big deal. We all know his difficiencies of being soft, and barely ever a second effort, and I'm glad you mentioned Robertson because he's the same as Pettifer, unaccountable, soft, never gives a second effort when the opposition has the ball, stages for frees all night long, etc etc. Would love to see Pettrified gone before Schulz

So mediocre Pettifer is that he has matched Michael O'Loughlin from Sydney for goals this year, he is 4 goals short of Reiwoldt and Steve Johnson in the worst Richmond team in history. I reckon he should get a bloody medal for his efforts.
Probably the best comparison would be with Robertson from Melbourne in what is an almost equally crap team, who has 2 more goals for the season and I don't see him copping much criticism. On top of that Pettifer can push back much better than Robertson who generally plays deep forward and doesn't play the link man as well as Petts.
Far bigger problems on the list than Petts and I think you are all fiddling while Rome burns

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
If Pettifer put his body on the line just once a game every now and then we might forgive him. Unfortunately he never EVER EVER EVER has!
Whimpy girl of the highest order, we need to get rid of this type of player. Howat your next!
Disgrace to the jumper is he!

Pettifer has performed better once Brown has come back into the side.Pettifer is expendable at the right price.linuscambridge said:
Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
Geelong are first in tackles.
Richmond are last.
Petiffer is not a team player. He is extremely poor in both tackles and 1%s.
He is a one way footballer who refuses to work hard when he doesn't have the football.
This is why it's laughable to compare him to O'Keefe was busts his balls for his team mates and not only is creative with the footy BUT works hard without it.
Petiffer is part of our problem IMO. He is soft and lazy.
Definately tradeable.

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
Don't agree - he does put his body on the line - but obviously not enough for you Crack. A challenge! Watch the game Sunday and we'll compare notes on how many times you reckon he puts his body in and I will do the same............................
I'm not putting him up as some sort of body player - he's not, but I don't think he's as bad as some people seem to think - he's not Jonothan Brown - he's HFF - not quite O'Keefe (Syd)material but better than a current day Milne... so he's not the worst. ;D
Tradable? You bet - just like 35 others for right deal

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
Cracker, Oldie and Clawed, please give me 16 HFF you are happy with, one for each club, based on this year's performances. Most clubs have 3-4 they rotate through there, so it shouldn't be too hard to come up with the one you are happiest with........................... If you think a certain club has two u like, drop a club or two of your choosing - but all up 16 HFF that you would call good..........................

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
More mindless rubbish, do you check out his stats before you assasinate his character?
Pettifer was leading the AFL in goal assists earlier this season, not a team player? Garbage.

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
I got howled down a couple of weeks ago for daring to have a crack at Petts for his selfishness & the lack of one percenters in his game. In his time at the club, maybe the football dept have been drumming into him about the need to address this, maybe they haven't - the fact is he's been around long enough and his game is still as one dimensional as ever. The same deficiencies remain each year.
He won't take us to where we need to be.
Go thee to the trade table.

Re: schulz vs Pettifer: trade value
lol at assassinating his character.
You are pointing out his strengths, I am pointing out his weaknesses of which he has a few.
You seem to want to ignore these when you quote other areas where he does ok.
I thought he had turned the corner last year but this season he's gone backwards and has slipped into some old habits. Like many of his team mates he's been disappointing this season but Kane is of an age now where he really needs to be stamping himself on games. He hasn't done that often at all in 07, hence my belief he is extremely tradeable.
You are entitled to think differently but IMO he is not a team player.
If you think that's garbage well and good but I don't really care. I just want this team to get better.
Petiffer shows little leadership, willingness to do the hard things and rarely stands up when the team is struggling.
He's fundamentally lazy and has admitted as much himself.
