Gibbs requests trade to Adelaide

[Elite Crow]

This obsession of crows supporters with high marks is ridiculous.

1 per game.

Jeremy Howe was a goal a game forward. Gov is 1.4.

He is not the difference between a flag and no flag. Our midfield is.

Our midfield is obviously the key but that doesn't mean McGovern is average as you are saying.

First season and he's kicked over 30 goals. You need to settle down a bit.

 

[Red mist]

29 is Port's pick that GC got in the Dixon deal last year

IMO that could be the go

Would we trade next yrs first again?

 

[GROTTO]

And Ryan Reynolds cheated on Scarlet Johansen.

Madness.

Hugh Grant cheated on Liz Hurley. That was even more bizarre. He got arrested for it too? I think.

 

[NikkiNoo]

and here I was thinking that compliments might have been my ticket onto the Crowcast, looks like I might have to come up with a new strategy

I've added a bit more to explain the yes and why I feel uncomfortable about it (and have for years with comments I have read on here). This also explains why my ignore list is a certain size so I don't have to read comments from people who continually make me uncomfortable to read.

Offer it back to Port for HH?

For once, Rowey talking sense. 'He ain't no Judd. We're not going to sell the farm for him. I'm happy to pay a premium but not the whole bloody farm.'

Muppetangelo is saying that the Crows (and I quote) 'should pay overs for him.'

There's only one club in this state that is very good at paying overs for players...

 

[MRB37]

Our lowball, apparently insulting offer to Tuohy was 300k pa for 3 years. He shopped around and chose his club. He's top 10 at any club.

Lyons was offered half that and no one is willing to offer him more. He sneaks into the best 22 at most clubs

Rumours of him being offered $400K for 4 years by North. He'll get a decent contract if he goes elsewhere.

 

[Jedistar]

I'll be the only one that will say this, McGovern would be better to keep than a trade for Gibbs

The upside with McGovern is huge

 

[Dixie Normous]

I am a bisexual, white, Anglo-Saxon male who finds women attractive but never expresses it because it is not human nor courteous to display these emotions as it infers that women are merely sex objects.

As I have also fornicated with men, this also gives me the right however to criticise Bryce Gibbs for looking a tad effete for having that silly 'man bun'.

 

[footylover18]

He can stay unhappily at Carlton and play out the next 3 years. Not our problem, we don't need to pay overs to remove what will be a disaffected player from Carlton's list.

To be honest, it is your problem. Your midfield is exactly your problem and unfortunately A Grade mids dont grow on trees. Dont pretend as if missing out on a player of Gibbs calibre is all good.

 

[Malifice]

Seriously you guys need to respect that Gibbs has only 4 years left at best

He's 28 for all of season 2017, 29 for all of season '18, 30 for all of season '19 and 31 for all of season '20.

If Bryce Gibbs retires at 31 I'd be shocked. Should play well into his early 30's.

 

[GROTTO]

Okayyy. Don't see why you'd quote my post for that rant though

Fair enough. I wont hassle you. You have been polite on here.

 

[footylover18]

Gibbs wants to come home for personal reasons. Might as well be uncontracted, we shouldn't be overpaying, which is what that deal would be. If he was 2 years younger, it'd be about right.

I guess that's where we disagree. 13 + Lyons is not overpaying imo. You take that deal and run i reckon.

 

[CutAboveTheRest]

Carlton are very good at low balling players and then whinging about them when they end up dominating..

Makes me wonder how Daisy's end of year break is going...

Men suck.

Or as Chris Rock puts it: 'A man is only as faithful as his opportunities'

For Lyons? I'm shocked he hasn't nominated North then, that's a 1.3 million dollar pay rise

lel. Of the top 8 club's he might be top 10 at North. But North hardly count as a top 8 club.

I don't think Gibbs value should go up just because a few Carlton supporters think he's the next Boomer. For every player like Harvey there are a 1000 guys that retire at age 30-31.

 

[Paladin]

I'm not advocating paying overs for him at all. I'm just saying that Carlton have no need to rush it because it's not like this is holding up any other deals. They can leave it until the last hour of the last day if they want to, and hope that in the meantime the Crows blink and up their offer.

Carlton need currency for their GWS raid. It could be in their best interest to get it done.

 

[hey shorty]

McGovern is a must keep in this situation. You give him away with 13 for an elite player, not one as good as Gibbs.

He's our best mark and in his first full year he kicked 30 goals with our midfield delivery.

Hugh Jackman says hi

 

[Red mist]

Don't want Gibbs if it means throwing Mclovin in the trade. They can gagf.

Have you seen Tuohy play? Had 25 touches & kicked 3 goals against St Kilda from the back pocket. Had 35 touches the week before against Hawthorn. AFLCA team of the year last year. He's worth around pick 20-25

 

[GROTTO]

Some men are genuine arseholes to women, thats not to say however women are completely innocent either.

 

[MRB37]

He's shown tremendous loyalty to us and is still probably hoping we'll reciprocate in kind. We haven't shown we'll do that yet.
