News Izak Rankine, Gold coast holding Rankine to Ransom- #FreeIzak

Mod note:

Opposition posters making outlandish trade suggestions to bait the Crows board will be considered trolls and dealt with in the usual manner

No one wants a repeat of the Gibbs thread

 

[George Kramer]

Mmm .....as soon as Dawson talk ramps up ...Rankine & Luko talks fade away ???

Of all the players we desperately need, Rankine IMO still is ahead of Dawson ....from a needs perspective

That’s because one player is confirmed as coming to SA, Rankine is contracted and nothing but rumour

 

[WaynesWorld19]

Why not both?

Rankine and Dawson would be a huge get

Just got my popcorn at the ready ......how I love AFL trade periods ...expect the unexpected

 

[Mismatched]

So going to ignore playing to take up a development role ? .....sounds like mother lynch doesn't want to uproot from SA ....or doesn't want to go to GC

I wonder if he takes Wrights role as playing development coach in SANFL, or has Wright agreed to continue there?

If I was a betting man I'd say yes .....is it 3 years that Wright has played SANFL ? ....that's enough & Lynch would have a bigger impact as playing Capt

Yep 3 years and impact appears to be waning, although that could be role dependent. Would be great to have Tom Lynch in that side.

I'd like to see Lynch as playing Coach of the SANFL side ......better longterm Coach than Godden, who's marking time

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Is Lynch even allowed to play for our SANFL side next year? Thought there was some stupid rule about not going straight from AFL to our SANFL team

We’re allowed that one marquee player still I believe, currently held by Wright. If Wright finishes up, Lynch could come in.

I thought Wright had to have been out of football for a year first or something?

Maybe I'm imagining it

No came straight from Carlton where I think he was their leading goal scorer

Does Wright have to finish? He hasn’t been an AFL player for a few years now, surely there’s a time limit on it?

I think that is correct. PA I believe done that with Sutcliffe. We just have to name Lynch as a Marquee and Wright just a normal player.

What's a normal player though? Don't know for sure but think we only have AFL listed players, top ups and the one marquee player playing for our SANFL team and Wright probably wouldn't be allowed to a top so soon?

Don't know if there's any updated rules but Wayne's post here has the 2019 rules.

Wright should be eligible as a top up player. Does anyone know if he also has a coaching role at the club.

yeah, Matty Wright has a development role. IIRC, he is the SANFL development coach abs top up manager.

How did Daniel Jackson play SANFL for us?

Give Wright an off field job and have him play under the same conditions Jackson did.

Think he hadn't play any football after retiring from afl for quite some while.

One pf those things that slipped between the cracks rule-wise.

 

[Iva Bigun]

we should actually have given The Suns a pick for taking that absolute spud off our hands..

they did us a massive favour.

Correct, many Suns fans were questioning why we would chase him at all, seems they knew better than our trade team. Atkins is an absolute spud and has 3 years left on his contract. Whoever put this together should be fired

Port might be a good place to go shopping for next year

Have you any intel that Godden is a bad coach? His SANFL record is good at WWT. His role is development. Hard to have a winning team with fill in players of country standard.

No I haven't any intel .....but I do think Lynch has the makings of a good asst Coach, and Godden was demoted from that role ....Lynch would have far more AFL gamestyle knowledge

 

[aabp1978]

So question- end of next year comes around. Rankine and Pickett out of contract. Who do you take? For me Pickett everytime. Rankine has more talent, but I doubt we will ever see it realised. Pickett gives you impact bow and for 10 years following!

 

[Sanders]

Pickett easily.

 

[Redline]

I am sure the club are doing everything they can on this but I wouldn't be waiting for next year for Lukosius. I think we have seen the player always holds the upper hand in these scenarios.
