Maybe the fact that the AFL banned clubs from negotiating new contracts until recently, due to uncertainty caused by the COVID disruptions?

The contract freeze only ended on 21st July:

Even Rowie can get one right now and then
Where are we putting the tipping point on a Crouch contract?
Considering the AFL doesn't announce compo until after the transaction is complete, is there a number we're working with as the yay or nay point?
700k/5 seems to be the number most people are working with. I don't think there's many teams out there who would throw that at him. Especially given his injury issues this year.
Realistically, I'm expecting him to still be here next year, unless he flat out demands to be let go, which he hasn't done yet.

No, completely wrong.
There was nothing that Vince did off field that would make any club want to run him out.
He was traded for the obvious reason. He had been under delivering but still held an attraction to other clubs who knew what he could do once he was focused and motivated again.
He had trade value that was higher than what he was actually delivering on the ground.
That's the reason. The only reason. He was an asset that would benefit the club more by trading than keeping.
That's what clubs do, and you'd have to be a fool or extraordinarily naive to think anything else.

I've never seen someone spout so much ignorant shit and then insult others. You are the Donald Trump of this board, if Trump was a mid-level public servant. You think you're playing 4D chess, but you haven't even opened the box.

It wouldn't surprise me if a team payed that and front end loaded it. If Jared Polec can get 700k/5 years then B.Crouch should be able to get that as well. North had to trade for Polec as well, any team can just pay B.Crouch and give up nothing but cap space. Dion Prestia's last 2 season with the Suns weren't very good, had some injuries but the Tigers payed him 800k/5 years from memory.
At the end of the day these contract are just rumor because the AFL don't disclose players contracts unlike every other league in the world. Crows fans will only know if he his contract is going to be band 1 compo once the crows get it. I remember when the Crows and Port were after Motlop and he chose Port, people thought Geelong would get Band 3 but they got Band 2 either Port payed him 600k per year or the AFL did one of their dodgy deals so G.Ablett could get back to Geelong.

LOL
There's some absolute "eggspurt" Play Station traders on here that put forward some of the most ridiculous trade scenarios possible....especially regarding contracted players at both ends of their play station deals.

I'm not sure why people would want fewer trade suggestions in a trade thread.
I've enjoyed those that people have posted, even the crazy ones.
I'm not sure which of mine people thought were unrealistic?
Of course, if someone had posted Wingard for Burton, a first and second you absolutely would have had the anorak brigade calling that a PlayStation trade.

Here's my crazy trade suggestion
Out: Brad Crouch, Matt Crouch, Smith, Lynch, Brown, Atkins, Hartigan, Kelly
In: Four first round picks, two second round picks
Convert some of those into 2021 picks.
Take a shit load of picks in the draft

You'll be paying big, big overs for 2021 1st round picks...and I mean big, big overs.

PlayStation trade is a way of saying the trade would work in a video game.
(which would have a points total working in the background)
E.g. a second round pick and 2 spuds add up to a gun player in points, so it would work on the old PlayStation sports games.

I remember the old football manager games where you could offer like 10 reserve players in a trade to get say Ronaldo and it was usually accepted.
I guess f/s and nga bidding and matching is similar to this.
Kornes with an article in tomorrow's paper saying how we have to put a team together for next year that can win 10 games (why?) Then says we should bring in Toby McLean, Luke Dunstan, Jack Graham and give Peter Ladhams a 5 year deal to get there. Yikes!
