So, anyone know much about our new recruit? Highlights etc?
All I know is that he can run through the midfield.
Sorry that's all I've got T2B.

Mate, we traded completely out of the second round next year and retained a disgruntled 27 year old player who would (at a minimum) rather play elsewhere.
We were asking for 2 x 1sts apparently. That's an insanely OTT request.
We could have traded back into the second next year AND picked up 13 this year AND scored a ton more cash for F/A next year.
Or, hopefully, he puts his head down, bum up and does a Dustin Martin (has his best year ever after an almost club departure).in a year pick 13 could be a talented young kid we would be excited about like we are with curnow or mckay and gibbs a memory. now he hangs around, takes up salary cap space and heads home in a year for even less.
Hey Mal chill.

Incredible result. A great great day for the club.
For all my posturing and bravado, I was convinced he was gone...
I'm relieved, grateful, ecstatic and emotional about him staying.
I know he has his detractors, and maybe sometimes he deserves a whack. But I get very attached to certain players, Gibbs struck a chord with me from day one and I couldn't be happier that he's staying...

Haha yep exactly. No Gibbs father sons will be playing for the CrowsEven, if as people are saying, he does the same thing next year - it will be 1 year later and just that little bit harder for him to notch up 100 games for the c....![]()
They pretty upset over at Adelaide...

But Gibbs staying will help with the rebuild in other ways...
I am chill.
We were asking for 2 x 1sts. They were offering a 1st and a 3rd. The obvious middle ground is a 1st and a 2nd.
That buys us back into the 2nd round next year AND an extra pick at 13 this year.
We just sabotaged our rebuild to retain a disgruntled player who would rather be elsewhere. It was a shocking move by the club, and I'm incredibly disappointed by our (reported) hardnosed approach.
