Squiggle tips Saints at 51% chance -- What's your tip? -- Team line-ups »
re Greenwood - if I was the crows I would be going to the AFL and screaming at them to make GC cough up a decent pick at the end of 1st round / early 2nd as recompense for what they did to us after we live traded our way to pick 3 - now shunted to pick 4. I'd also be using the line that we have less bargaining power with GWS in terms of bidding on Green if we had pick 3 - knowing GC will take Rowell and Anderson guaranteed with picks 1 & 2. At pick 3 we held the whip hand - now melbourne do and it has weakened our bargaining position. Our club should be banging down the doors at AFL house to ensure GC don't f*ck us here..The AFL owe us big timeI wouldn't. The statement would just be that we're stupid, especially with how many players we are losing.
Unless either of them are trying to get them for fourths, I'd end up accepting.
I'd hold out for the entire trade period, only completing it in the last 5 minutes though.
Restricted free agent out of contract, we could have been left with compensation only.Nah
Just shows how bad, how gullible we were. Geelong absolutely ran rings around us
That’s on us, not them
That’s all well and good. But if we do that we can hardly complain when Gold Coast do the same thing with Greenwood.Well now that FA is done, you just say no deal, Sam can go into the draft.
What do we lose?

Was Justin Reid even with us then? I thought he joined the club end of 2016?Nah

Our bust was Gore, was a shinning light that never turned on

Gold Coast is chasing Brisbane's pick No.21 in exchange for speedy defender Callum Ah Chee.
The Lions have offered Ah Chee a long-term deal at the club and prised him out of their crosstown rivals after an injury-riddled year.
Ah Chee was pick No.8 at the 2015 NAB AFL Draft, and has managed 45 games in four years at the Suns. He made only one senior appearance this year.
Oh I agree, we should have been anchors too.Nah

Good administrator, poor negotiator.Yup, that one was the work of David "I have a Harvard degree" Noble.
If the AFL don't like it, they just need to get rid of the PS draft, or only allow players in it if they have been in the national draftAFL will not let GC go down the PSD route. Esp as they own them.
Damien Barrett spoke about the PSD threat this morning and he said any club that would dare do it again would ruin relationships and basically said the AFL wouldnt allow it.
The token pick?Well now that FA is done, you just say no deal, Sam can go into the draft.

Not quite as often as you get them in the top 6 but if you had 3 cracks at it you're probably more likelyFyfe is a generational player, and if not for his only weakness of average footskills, would be in the Leigh Matthews category. Getting him at 20 is amazing, but how often do you get players like Fyfe with pick 20?
You can denigrate Martin all you like, but the fact is he is a top tier elite midfielder of the competition. How often do you get players like that with a top 5 pick? The answer is often.
From what I recall it was very similar. Gold coast recruited a bunch of individuals as their mature age players (ablett, Bock, Krak) while GWS went for young leaders (ward, Davis, Scully)You sure about that, without checking I'm sure I've read plenty of articles where GWS got more generous concessions than the GCS? No doubt they've handled it far better, that's certainly indisputable.
So still all the below to be done, it feels like we might run out of time. It would be good to at least get one done tomorrow.
Jacobs
Betts
Keith
Greenwood
Jenkins
Knight?
So when it comes out we aren’t getting 48 for Betts but a late future pick and we are going to pay some of his contract, how we going to feel about Betts and the club?
Seems like the Rory Laird rumours have all but disappeared
You would think with the arsenal of picks Geelong now have those would have ramped back up again!

Lol, you did!Wow. You went there
You think a restricted free agent (Danger) puts us in a lesser position in comparison to just an uncontracted player (Kelly)
Just wow
Particularly after we lost plenty of points with the GC priority picks.AFL will not let GC go down the PSD route. Esp as they own them.
