Player Watch Jordan Dawson

[jackster83]

If Sydney hand over that pick for Ladhams they are ******* idiots

We should hold off on submitting the paperwork for Dawson until 30 seconds before the trade deadline.

 

[Maddogmetro]

****ing hilarious how the Sydney supporters are taking this out on Dawson lol

He gave you many years, decided to go back home to the team he wants, who was also offering him the most money, after completing his contract.

Not his fault Sydney are idiots by making their fans believe he was worth 5 first rounders, and every Crows player's first born, while out of contract and when we have PSD leverage.

Eat it Sydney fans.

 

[hey shorty]

We could have had him for free and kept Melbourne’s Pick. Ergo, we paid overs.

We were never getting him for free, that was fanciful.

Clubs don't want to use the PSD if they don't have to.

Clubs don't want to use the PSD if they don't have to.

And the players don’t like it either

 

[GrommoT]

Booked in to get his left leg amputated next month. But don't worry, he kicks well both sides

Oooo! A burner account - Shidney or Poo supporter?

 

[Crows I Am]

Great result. Welcome to the club Jordan!

 

[Glenny83]

Reckon that is what is at play here. The two clubs have agreed but Swans don’t want Port to know about the future first in 2022.

Next minute!

 

[Murray2503]

Depends how Melbourne go in 22. I bet Rucci will be all over it if Melbourne somehow missed the top 8.

Melbourne will at least play in a prelim. They know how to win now. As long as they don't get numerous injuries they should go back to back.

 

[BunjiMC]

I wanted the pre season draft. But in reflection using it deliberately puts future players off coming to the club. This is the fairest deal for all.

and happily traded us their future 1st

 

[skittlebrew]

Please be sarcasm

You think we couldn't have pulled it off via PSD?

Even if we couldn't, we still would've kept a first-rounder.

 

[relapse]

Now we just have to remember what we gave up for the Melb. Pick and then forget we ever had the Melb. Pick.....

That's exactly right, the only reason we even went after that pick in the first place was for Dawson.

When Sydney knocked back 17, we brought another club into the mix and turned that pick into Melb's 2022 first rounder.

The pick was always going to Sydney.

 

[Cap]

Oooo! A burner account - Shidney or Poo supporter?

It was a joke

 

[Mr_Moogle]

We still have pick 4 and next years first. Reid gets a tick here afaic.

 

[skittlebrew]

Does it? We can really only use PSD while we're on the bottom of the ladder, so unlikely we would do it if we couldn't pull it off. Also contracts are more likely to have their contracts front loaded, which is a big win for them.

 

[FR0GGY]

AH ok. I pretty much always get close to what trades end up in reality. Dawson has more trade value than Saad did and look what he was traded for. Adelaide fans are acting identically to how West Coast fans did about the out of contract Tim Kelly when he was traded. Pick 14 is a deadset steal for a player as good as Dawson. That combined with getting pick 4 where you'll get the choice of either Hobbs or Ward depending on who Gold Coast select will make for a terrific off season.

Please do. I copped ridiculous abuse here for pointing out what every single non crows supporter is saying on bf.. No chance in hell a pick less than 15 gets it done in a deal for Dawson. This is just like the pick 5-8 for Mcgovern claims a few season ago and yeah that was most Crows supporters saying that.

Close but no cigar.
This will make a big dent in your big footy trade reputation.

We paid fair value.

Not to mention the campaignerery they pulled with Gibbs where they tacked on getting a future 2nd back at the very last moment...

The trade board has a few good laughs as well.

My current favorite is " I know they won but there was stuff all between 1st and 6th this season. "

This deluded fool thinks Sydney were almost as good as Melbourne this year.

 

[Soggy2112]

This is another big tick for the club since the Dunstall review.

Managed to convince Dawson to come to the club.

Held our nerve and didn’t give up more than we had to to bring him in.

Excluding later picks we basically gave up 23, 37 and 42 for Dawson and 33 which is a big win I’d say.

Long way to go yet but the club is doing all the right things.

 

[George CantStandYa]

Rendell said today that players often agree to come but want the club to get fair return, they don’t like going to the PSD. So our pitch to Dawson would have given him assurances that we would try and do you really want the message to go out to future recruits that we can’t get deals done?

 

[relapse]

I wonder who Sydney are going to draft now that they have Pick 4?

Oh wait

AND they also laughed at us for suggesting lyons as part of the gibbs trade..outside walsh, he would be their best mid with cripps a shell of himself...or even lyons would have saved some of the battering cripps takes

 

[hippyhippy]

Considering what we paid for Melbournes first.. this is a good outcome... we paid a 2nd rounder and some loose change.

Imho... that will turn out to be pick 15... so fair deal overall

I forgot about him there’s been so many

Essendon and Geelong are easily the worst clubs to deal with. With the amount of players Adelaide lose to other clubs (meaning we have little leverage and lose out on those trades), we would actually be one of the better clubs to deal with.
