Delisted Callum Ah Chee - Joins Adelaide via the PSD

🥰 Love BigFooty? Join now for free.

We were not trying to lure Brisbane to join the crows, whats offered in a contract to the player is completely different than the trade negotiation with a club whose player is OOC. Its not our fault that your club has had such a leg up of late with sheer luck on the father son front and the AFL northern academy system that has gifted you almost your entire premiership midfield that you can afford to NOT value 2nd round picks
What relevance does any of this word salad have to the discussion I was having with the other poster
 
We offered a pick in the 20's which you declined as you got greedy wanting our 1st rounder or a 1st round slide & our supposedly useless future 2nd.

Yes, we refused to use our 1st rounder, but stop peddling BS that we only offered a pick in the 40s. The media reported the different offers, so why do you keep repeating the same lie? Trying to justify Dom's **** up of losing him for nothing?
Adelaide optics strike again. Why can’t you just accept you were being hard asses at the trade table? I mean it worked in the end didn’t it? There’s no reason to lie about what happened

I realise ai can be wrong, but are you able to provide any evidence that a pick in the 20’s was actually on the table? Have heard this thrown out a few times as if it is fact.

It’s an extension of the lie Reid mentioned in one interview that no other article has mentioned since. There was also a Facebook video floating around with Riley Beveridge saying it during trade radio but not a single source that actually ran with it after that. Looks like Adelaide pushing that lie to make them seem more reasonable when it’s clear they offered no more than a future 2nd and 3rd pick

You offered us a pick you didn’t hold?

You offered us a pick in the 40s. You wouldn’t even do a 2026 2nd (pick 40) and 2027 (compromised draft) second (likely a pick in the 50s).

But youre then willing to believe you totally offered us a straight pick in the 20s that you didn’t even hold.

And I’m sure we weren’t having to give anything back either. I heard Reid was begging us to take it and we just said no to spite him

Where is pick 40 coming from?. More likely pick 30-35

"We had a trade lined up with Port for pick 29, but you wouldn't accept it!!!!"


No information at all on what the other elements of the deal would have been. Port got Carlton's future second round pick out of the deal that happened, which is likely worth a lot more than the Adelaide future second. Port also folded in the Corey Durdin trade with it.

What else were the Crom going to give up to make that three-way trade more appealing to Port? Their useless future third round pick?

So we haven’t established Reid is a master trader, probably one of the best in the business, if he is able to get quality players for free

What else do you have to add

The master trader Crom wanted to give up two firsts for Harrison Petty but were saved by Melbournes idiocy.

The master trader Crom wanted to take on Clarrys contract and give up first round picks but were saved by Melbournes idiocy.

The master trader Crom want to improve their one dimensional midfield but continue to be rebuffed.

Yet all the Lions have is Dom the prick ruining our list. Sad!

Maybe he's good maybe he isn't. To be honest I hadn't heard of him before this trade period. Adelaides biggest issue seems to be actually attracting good talented players rather than their trading but that is a different discussion.

My whole point is that crows supporters are far more concerned with optics than reality. You seem to be an exception who is happy to say they acted with the clubs interest at heart which included sending him through the draft, rather than trying to make the Lions out to be the bad guys with outright lies and hysteria. So kudos to you but some of your fellow posters need to take a breath

Why would they run with it any further, Reid organised it with Port who were agreeable at the time.....Ambrogio refused it so all over Red Rover.
Port later used the pick on Durdin when he became available.

Oliver wouldn't have been able to mentally handle the SA media TBH, there's reason why both clubs can only attract quality players who are from SA and massive Crows or Port Power fans growing up with exception like Ryder who wanted to escape Victoria after the Essendon drug saga or Carey who wanted to escape the Victoria media after his affair. This isn't Brisbane were the media doesn't give a shit about the Lions, what was the media like compared to the Broncos winning the NRL premiership........
not many players can mentally handle having intellectual titans like rowey, rucci and ricciutio spend inordinate amounts of time blowing smoke up their ass. real tough.

Lions supporters seem to struggle with the concept that more than 2 clubs can be involved in a trade.

The pick 29 offer was readily mentioned in the media with links in this thread. This was not denied by Dom, rather he rejected it as wanted our 1st round pick or a swap of 1st round picks with a future 2nd.

We also had future 2nd & 3rd rounders on offer.

The talk that we were just offered a pick in the 40s is complete lie made by many Lions supporters in this thread, because deep down they knew this was reasonable & Dom has ****ed up losing Ah Chee for nothing.

Anyone with a brain doesn't listen to any of these 3 nor the Cornes.
