Called Eddie. Look at any of her interviews discussing it, and he has talked about how the Crows offered more money and if Carlton upped theirs a bit closer (not match) he would have stayed at Carlton.
Stop bignoting yourself.
If you really know him call him again and ask him what he thinks of MicK Malthouse.
Even if you do I would not expect him to give you an honest answer as he is too polite.

Poster on our board being told from someone within our club that the discussion at the moment is Gibbs and #24 for Lyons and #13. I personally think it's probably leaning your way as a great trade, but not something I would spit the dummy over. IMO, it should be Gibbs and our third pick for Lyons and 13.

Not a 'done deal' at all - just apparently where the discussions are at for the moment. Take with as much salt as required for taste.
Thanks for the information, I agree that it's quite a favourable deal for us; it looks as though Carlton are quite intent on getting something for Gibbs rather than having him reach the end of his career at the same time as Murphy, Kreuzer and Thomas, which wasn't something I really expected going into the off-season.

There's no way Carlton do that. None.

lol wut.

The question was 'you have sources'
Answer 'called Eddie'

As in, the source is Eddie because he has said as much in interviews, not because Nikki knows him.

Would be a good result for all but I'm sure we would also need to do one more favour to even things out

Maybe it's to offer a safe and easy passage to Carlton for a Mitch Grigg or someone similar

How so ? .....you know him ? ......you seen him work??? ......you know why he failed at every senior coaching job interview ......so why is it "big get, Big, Huge"
There are coaches best suited to being assistants rather than head coaches, they perform better with focused and defined roles.

Sorry I'll translate it into your gibberish so you can read it.

Start the car on that deal.

Then ontrade #24 to GWS for Steele.

Gibbs + Steele
for
#13 + #24 + Lyons
I was thinking hang on to 24 and use the potential compo pick we could get for Hendo... but still it's effectively 13 and Lyons for Gibbs and Steele, that's pretty ******* good and something we could all be happy with.

I wouldn't necessarily start the car, but I'd at the very least be searching around for the keys.

Guys I hate be the bearer of "bad news" again but like I have said a month ago, we have no interest in Rockliff and I would be shocked if we did trade for him.

Having said that, we seem to be balls deep into trying to get Gibbs. I think Gibbs would actually be a better fit for us, even though he is a year or so older.

Well she was wrong there as it was just announced in a news article that he is going to coach the WA under 18's on a 2 year contract and has declined Adelaide's advances to be an assistant.. Wonder who we are actually speaking to for that role, has been a while now.. Surely something is happening.
Originally we were talking to Craig Vosso - the highly respected Football Manager at west Coast - as a direct replacement.

Fagan was then looking at a re-structuring of duties, with Justin Reid taking over List Management out of Noble's duties, with the role becoming more involved in the day to day football activities - hence the talks with Sumich.

If Sumich is out of the running , then we might well revert to Vosso He could certainly do the job, and Pyke and he have a good relationship.

Depends how much they now want the role to be of a football advisory role to Pyke, rather than the previous traditional Football Manager's role.

Do you have any below average ginger midfielders you could throw in to the deal?

I'm sure I read somewhere this week or last that we had looked at vozzo but he decided not to move from west coast? I'm sure it was quoted or something like that but seemed it was he and not sumich we were after but he declined.. Interesting with what they do here now anyway.
