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

[Scorpus]

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

 

[Bearded Clam]

He must have deleted it

Its still up.. I just googled “kane cornes tweet this is getting cruel”..

Kornes tweeted it last year when Edmond said he was sure Dawson was gonna chose Port.. so you have to search for it.. its not a new tweet from today..

 

[MRB37]

Posturing.

The 'ol "If we can't negotiate with the Crows we'll go to the Power" move, except I don't think the Power have the cash or the interest, especially if they've got their sights on Dunkley.

 

[LoBu]

GWS had no cap space, it's why they shed players every off season. Norf was in disarray but different this year with Clarko driving the club. Dodoro would be licking his lips.

You offer $4 mill over 5 years, you expect to pay at the trade table. Carlton for example target players with big contracts and are prepared to offer up high picks in good faith

AFL won't let it get done for unders, GC is their club, they are propping them up to make them successful, they won't cop us trying to low ball GC. AFL can control everything behind the scenes. They have the PP situation over Norf who will do their bidding if told. If we tried to pull the PSD threat in negotiations, you can guarantee years of s**t draws and s**t timeslots from the AFL, a sinister organisation who hold grudges and we aren't part of their boys club.

We've attracted Rankine, it's now on us to get the deal done quickly in good faith.

Yeah, nah - I don't believe your conspiracy theories. The only thing accurate is GWS has no salary cap.

I'm not saying PSD, but it's a crutch. A deal will get done.

 

[Redleg Crow]

We got pick 12 for CC, anything better than that is way overs

 

[Soggy2112]

None of which matters in the scheme of things....It's what North are prepared to accept for their CONTRACTED player and in that regard Powa have the upperhand IMO.

I think if we are offering big money to JHF (which if I’m putting money on it I’d say we are), we’re planning to do it next season.

 

[Betts are off]

If we're talking about a fair trade, yeah 12-15 would be the sweetspot IMO.

 

[pjcrows]

From here the AFL media engine will crank into overdrive suggesting we should pay massive overs for him and that it sucks for the poor Gold Coast and never should have happened

Meanwhile Victorian clubs pillage Gold Coast and GWS and that's all fair because they're "coming home"

Same thing happened with Dawson. It work out beautifully.

 

[Dewy006]

Carlton gave up pick 6 for Cerra, a player with MUCH better exposed form who plays in a premium position. Giving up Pick 5 would be malpractice.

 

[dani_giuls]

I have a feeling I'm going to be very active on Twitter reminding all the journos that they said nothing when Lynch went to the reigning premiers, nor did they have an issue when Rankine was heading to Essendon...

Already been on there responding to comment from someone feeling sorry for GC...........(just brought up Gunston, Lever and Davis)..

 

[Bovo]

Why does thread say requests trade to south Australia, when he specifically asks for a trade to the Crows?

Cmon Sanders you should know better than that! Even in Bigfooty land we need a bit of sensationalism and faux shock. Facts can be so boring so where’s the fun in that?

 

[SuperBashBros]

Trade period is 3rd - 12th Oct for anyone curious when our Operation will be completed

Genuinely excited to add Izak and Rachelle to our team full time next year.

We'll be onto part 3 of this thread by then haha.

 

[Rory Walkerfield]

Can we just take a moment to reflect on how exciting our round 1 FWD line will potentially look next year.

McAdam Walker Rankine
Rachele Fogarty Thilthorpe

Take my damn money.... I'm certainly buying that ticket all day long!

Surely Rankine has to work his way into the side via the SANFL!

That is a super exciting combination!

 

[I Lost My Keays]

This is exciting news! He’s that type player that can change a game on its head with limited possession. This move can promote Rachele into some time with the midfield?

 

[Bovo]

During the showdown the commentators mentioned Rowe could be playing his last game for us. I’m guessing the club has too many small forwards now? I was unaware of all this you see.

Click bait for Port Power supporters.

Click bait for Port Power supporters.

Pfft! As if they can even read!

CC was in contract. Pick 15-20 is fair.

There was some hinting yesterday on 5AA about going to Port, but that could just have been to shirt stir Rowey.

 

[LeftyLuke]

Gold Coast trying to pull the same s**t Sydney attempted last year of “we’ll just trade him to Port if you don’t play ball” when they know full well that isn’t an option.

From what i understand about trading the player needs to agree to a trade. All Rankine needs to do is come out and say that he will only be at one club next year.

I think he is going to the SANFL.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Pick 5 should be absolute off limits for an out of contract player. Id offer next years first pick or split next years pick and on trade that to GC

 

[Geoffa32]

Trade our two seconds to Brisbane for their first rounder. They need the points? Give that to GC

Offer JHF a similar contract. Offer North our 22/23 first rounders.

If JHF/North decline, draft Phillipou.

That's only allowed under special* conditions.
