As I've mentioned previously, Crouch actually makes for one of the more plausible targets for us, given our amicable trading history with Adelaide, Brad's desire to move on from that club and our need for another quality mature midfielder.

Let there be a pick swap involved- please, please, please............
 
fu** my brain just exploded. I'm no good with these scenarios.

Everyone you can rest easy I don't have anything to do with list management!!
Don't think you can trade both a future first and second. Stand to be corrected.
 
I don’t Crouch is worth more than one first rounder - even if he did win the Adelaide BnF. (Which to be fair didn’t have a strong field this year)

Our first rounder next year, say pick 10, would be correct value given his age and injury history.
 
What in that, gave any indication that the club is "finding it a lot tougher to snare Sydney's Tom Papley"?
Nothing at all, but I think overall its clearly easier to get Betts to Carlton then Papley. The biggest thing I took from this is Channel 9's reporter has outstanding facial reactions to everything.

The poor little journo fluffed about three of his lines - I’m not sure he’s a reliable judge of what Carlton can and can’t do.

I tell you what we will do - trade in Tom Papley. And that’ll be a great move.
 
Papley talks progressing well. Betts trade is almost too good to be true given how little money the club will have to pay him
One would hope so but trade radio this afternoon said Hawthorn are coming at Papley Hard now with Poppy's future uncertain
There's something big brewing. I'm still confident it involves Gaff (or atleast to that caper of talent). That's what I'm hearing.

Papley and Martin will happen.

Betts will happen for peanuts as early as Monday
I could stand losing Martin if we were to land Gaff, but if the Dawks manage to steal Papley out from under our nose I will have a serious meltdown... :(
We have more than enough draft currency for Crouch, even with Papley and Martin
Heard from Adelaide's list Manager on SEN yesterday arvo that Matt has committed and going nowhere but he didn't sound as confident on Brad, and didn't sound like he expected to keep him. Kept answering 'see how it plays out' to every player mentioned as a possible trade.

I would love Gaff - even at the expense of Martin (FWIW - before anyone chimes in - I don't think the Brayshaw incident was intentional - in that he probably meant to shove/whack him, but not as high or as hard as he did - just a brain fart I suspect), but he's an outside mid when we really need an in and under type.
