News Brad Crouch to Saints (STK make offer; Band 3, ADL to match?)

[Mego Red]

Nah you're way off base here. That deal is awful, worse that not matching.

I will contribute to a truck of chicken sh*t if we do that, who's with me?

Sure, getting 17 for Crouch and 39 is less than we want.

Do we really want to send Crouch to the PSD?

There's no one interested in giving anything up for him. No one wanted him for free.

 

[Maddogmetro]

Lol, you're still wrong. You're counting what St Kilda receive, not what we have.

We have Crouch and 39.

We don't match Crouch and give up 39, and we get 17.

You can't count Crouch and 23, because there's no reality where we can have both Crouch and 23. To can only think of it as Crouch OR 23.

Do you understand now?

Pick 23 doesn't just disappear in your proposal. It goes to the Saints.

So we give up Brouch, then get pick 23. Then give up 23. So we have given both away. The fact that we don't have it now is irrelevant. These are things that we would give up in that trade. Plus pick 39. And then we get 17 back. It is a terrible proposal.

 

[Kenny Dee]

We give the compo pick back to St Kilda, so we lose that along with Brad.

The net result for Adelaide is

Out:Brouch, 23, 39
In: 17

That is literally fact.

F*ck that!

 

[Crow till I die]

F*ck that!

+ 1

 

[Crow Envy]

So Tom Morris going with the offer only being 4 years, $600k of guaranteed money and that’s all we have to match.

WTF are we waiting for???

Do you understand now?

I understand what you're saying, but we still lose Brouch, 23 and 39 for pick 17.

There is literally no way to argue that is not the case. It is fact.

I would have rathered try for this.

We do a deal for the Atkins pick + our 2021 2nd for the saints 2021 1st. Then allow Crouch to go for band 2 compo pick

That way we lose the Atkins pick but get the upgrade to a start of 2nd round pick and we upgrade our 2021 2nd to a 2021 1st. It should look ok from the saints perspective as they would factor us as a bottom 4 side and they would fancy themselves as a top 4 side - so not a huge place drop to get a pick in this years draft that might just help them get Higgins in..oh and they keep pick 17 this year

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Look how the bombers have ended up with Daniher....

We can all be happier if we keep him and move him on in 2021.

This will also help our midfield until Holland's is ready to fly

Daniher's market value had not changes over the past 12 mths despite playing very few games, the reason is the market is willing to pay for his match winning potential

In terms of Brad in 12 mths time he will still only be a good B grade midfield that compliments your midfield, he is not elite, he is not a good user of the footy and he accumulates possessions rather than hurting the opposition

I doubt Brad's market price will change in 12 mths time

That's not a bad suggestion all round. Do the points add up enough for the AFL to approve it?

not sure - I had not looked at it from a points perspective but it should pass the sniff test as it is 2 x 2nd rounders for a first (and surely the AFL would look at where the 2 clubs finished this year?)

Dont know if this has been posted yet but says rival clubs got wind of the salary dump and complained it went against the spirit and maybe even the rules,
this pick 23 crap has AFL intervention written all over it

I don't think it will increase but we may have a new likely suiter that we can trade for that's better than the compo pick.

1 year of Brad in 2021 then trade and get a pick in 2021 between 15 & 25 and I say that's a win over a pick near the 30's in a cloudy draft year

I knew something like this happened, we got fked over, teams do this every year just this year it was going to result in pick 2.

Really Brad needs to sack his manager.

 

[Vhaluus]

I'm suddenly not so concerned with this trade, US elections putting things a bit in perspective for me.

 

[Dangerousfield]

We read the whole scene incorrectly, the Brad does a really stupid thing, now we are where we are.

I'm ready to just take the compo pick, move on from this mess and start bundling picks to move up in this and next years draft.

Pick 1, in some ways a nightmare pick

And being a contracted player, if he doesnt agree to a trade?

They can renegotiate his salary for 2022 onwards at a higher rate though?
