paul van der haar?Will you take Ricky Dyson and 3rd rounder?
I'm not hearing a 'NO!'paul van der haar?
EXODUS
need I remind you what your messiah said about having to pay a premium for contracted players. Bryce gibbs is THE perfect example here..a guy that has never been in the AA team attracted 2 x 1sts with a 2nd coming back - picks 10 & 16 from memory. Laird is worth considerbly more than gibbs as a player and he is younger than gibbs when he was traded. now don't tell me you think SOS was wrong as that certainly wouldn't fit the carlton supporter narrative would it
why are you ..i'll quote 'really hoping' I am not trying to make a case that a contracted 2 x AA ball magnet defender is not worth 2 x 1st rounders. Your club was stupid enough to cough up 2 x 1st rounders for a 3rd tall intercept player. So, a contracted 2 x AA ball winning defender is worth more than a guy that will never be a KPP and has not made the AA team
SOS disagrees - he thinks you have to pay a premium for contracted players and your board thinks the sun shines out of his you know what. Reid thinks the same in that way - see Lever (oops, my bad, Lever was out of contract and attracted 2 x 1st rounders)We all know you paid overs for Gibbs
Laird is not worth the same currency as Shiel or Neale
my case is laughable? - now I have heard it all. So you are comparing out of contract players with in contract players - come again - who is laughable. BTW, do you have any idea what an out of contract Lever WAS traded for?? - it was 2 x 1st round picks with a 2nd rounder coming back hahahah.Your case is laughable. Laird isn’t worth more than Lever was at the time and if Laird does indeed get traded, I can guarantee it won’t be for more than what Lever went for. So essentially, no. He is not worth more.
Also, if you’d have bother to checked... I’m actually a Lions supporter, not a Melbourne one.
wow all 17 other clubs are circling pretty hard at the Adelaide players
There is something seriously f’ed up there at the moment

SOS, Reid?Way too emotional, that's how bias happens
SOS, Reid?
really - you know he aced it with Lever and McGovern. He also got pick 12 for Charlie Cameron when EVERYONE was saying pick 19 will get it done (although Charlie has gone to another level now which at the time was doubtful he could become as consistent as he has done) and since he is still in his role, good luck to anyone trying to pry out LairdOkay, if you really want to discuss it, please tell me how Reid got overs for one of the players that wanted out
I'd take it for the Lions, but realistically the latter pick would be going the other way because Laird is contracted. That usually attracts a premium. I can see Adelaide demanding more also, we paid full price for Charlie at the time (though it's a bargain in hindsight) as did Melbourne for Lever (and I'm not getting dragged into that discussion any further).Brisbane Receive: Rory Laird and 2020 3rd Round Pick.
Adelaide Receive: Pick 15 and Mitchell Hinge.
Hinge has played two games looked decent
For the lions. Is a local SA Boy. Could be good.
I think the two firsts are reserved for your Judd, Treloar and Lever types.
Whilst Laird is elite at his position, he just doesn’t have the same sort of worth as those guys do.
makes me nervous when the hawks / hawks supporters start praising your playersDifferent positions but I rate him higher than Lever. All Australian, ball magnet, generally a decent user, courageous. I believe he wants more midfield minutes as well but doesn't get it with Sloane and the Crouches unable to play anywhere else.

Don't be more money for his contractI'm gonna feel so bad for Sloane if all these good players leave the Crows.
how exactly am I hanging s**t on anyone?People in glass houses and all that...Melbourne are in no position to hang sh*t on other clubs, lol
how exactly am I hanging s**t on anyone?
Reports keep floating about heaps of clubs looking at trying to poach Adelaide players and not just the old ones such as Laird & Crouch.
Add to the fact the rumblings coming out of Adelaide and it legit seems something is unsettling the team.
Melbourne had a s**t year, I am well aware of that but there isn't the same noise about our top players potentially looking at leaving
not what I remember - you were saying 2nd rounder and I said a top 10 pick. I recall you admitting I hit closer to the markLever you got a mid 1st and a late 1st, ironically you gave us that pick and we took Stocker. That trade wasn't overs, it was market value for a 21 year old who will be a very good player
McGovern was what I predicted at the time, which you know, that too market value
You did well with Cameron, slight overs I agree, but nothing outrageous and his form suggests you now got unders, but that's hindsight
So I will suggest/predict for the last time, if you trade out Laird, his total value is a pick in the 14-17 range
my case is laughable? - now I have heard it all. So you are comparing out of contract players with in contract players - come again - who is laughable. BTW, do you have any idea what an out of contract Lever WAS traded for?? - it was 2 x 1st round picks with a 2nd rounder coming back hahahah.
