    Traded Jordan Dawson traded to Adelaide for F1 (Melb)

    Ok, let's round it up to Band 2 compo, which is end of 1st Round, pick 19-20 or thereabouts. Based on that, Crows offers have been more than you'd get at FA.

    Traded Jordan Dawson traded to Adelaide for F1 (Melb)

    Can we stop saying "front end the contract so we get him through the PSD". When nominating for the PSD, players only nominate a length of contract, and a total payment over that contract. That is all that needs to be matched. Crows can then front end that, North could back end it, to fit in...

    Does anyone else want our lunch money?

    Someone once told me that "you don't paying a sex worker to sleep with you, you're paying them to leave right afterwards". Same with Eddie and JJ. We're not paying them to play for the opposition next year, we're paying them to leave the club when now we're done with them. They'd still be on...

    Don Pyke quits. Or did he?

    While technically true, the AFL do 'appoint the Board members', but only after the Recommending Committee comprised of the existing Board members makes a recommendation.

    Game Day AFL 2019 Round 17: Gold Coast v Adelaide, 7:25pm AEST Metricon Stadium

    How was that HTB against Knight? GC players didn't even tackle him.

    Bring back the sub, but only for injuries

    No. We tried it. We all watched it. It sucked. Injuries happen. 1 Injury is not the deciding factor in a game.

    Analysis Pick 5 - 2018

    I'm not imagining it doesn't happen (double negative, i know), but its still draft tampering. Part of the whole Kurt Tippett fiasco was that we promised to trade him to Qld for a 2nd rounder in a few years. It's comparable.

    Analysis Pick 5 - 2018

    Can anyone here say "draft tampering"?

    Traded Lachie Neale [traded with #30 to Brisbane for #6, #19 and #55]

    So it's actually Freo's best 3 players have been South Aussies. ;) 4 if you count Chris Groom.

    Mitch McGovern 2: As The Worm Turns (read the OP)

    If anyone thinks Danger didn't leave for money, they're kidding themselves. He will earn "multiples more" in his life as an ex-Geelong player than as an ex-Adelaide player. Literally every player who has left in the past few years has left for money or opportunity. Also I'm reminded of one of...

    Traded Mitch McGovern [traded to Carlton in a three-way trade involving Sydney and McAdam]

    Not worth my time if you can't see it already. As I have already pointed out, you don't even know what type of player McGovern is. How can you know his value?

    Traded Mitch McGovern [traded to Carlton in a three-way trade involving Sydney and McAdam]

    Firstly, you don't even know what type of player McGovern is, and what he can do, do you? Only Himmelberg and he are playing the same role. If you'd mentioned Walker, Jenkins, Fogarty and Himmelberg you'd be a lot closer. Also, I'm 99.9% certain McGovern will be a better player than McAdam...

    Where do you mention the need to pay 'overs' for a contracted player?

    Traded Mitch McGovern [traded to Carlton in a three-way trade involving Sydney and McAdam]

    Forgot to add on the fact that you need to pay a premium for a player with 2 years on his contract. So bump that low second rounder +McAdam up a bit more and we'll all be able to agree on these 'facts'.

    Mitch McGovern 2: As The Worm Turns (read the OP)

    I've seen the Shouter use "we" in regard to Carlton stuff before, so it could be Sam McLure.
