Sup guys, how is Callum's relationship with Stuie Dew?

Cal left the Suns to get away from Stewie and then Stewie followed him to the Lions. Stewie is off to Port and now Cal will follow him to the Power in the PSD...swings and roundabouts

 

[CarterS]

It seems Adelaide expected us to accept whatever their best offer was, even though it wasn't that good of an offer, just because it was their best offer.

 

[The Zork]

I was almost expecting the manager to pull out a pre-prepared note in his pocket to double check the kids names, comes across as small time operator working in a cramped windowless room at the back of a struggling laundromat who would spend most of his day fighting his non functioning printer Dennis Denuto style.

the last player to get to his club of choice through the PSD after a failed trade negotiation?

 

[dlanod]

Is Jack Martin the last player to get to his club of choice through the PSD after a failed trade negotiation?

Jackson Hately, to the Crows. Same M.O.

 

[Nathan Barley]

Sounds like we were happy to give 23 and Cal for 16 and a future 2nd

 

[CarterS]

Adelaide posters seem pretty keen to argue they "won" because they may get him for free through the PSD while Lions posters seem generally happy with the outcome too. So why the arguments if both sets of supporters are happy with the outcome.

The Crows supporters seem far from happy

 

[LongLion]

The Crows supporters seem far from happy

To say they are a little salty is understating it

can't believe the vitriol still coming from them when they keep say it will be OK they get him in the PSD.

Come on Port, do us a solid. I promise I won't hate you as much

I think we’ve shown we have little respect for the way Adelaide want to go about business. That us wound them up

That was the no brainer trade, but Adelaide even rejected two F2s which to me would've been unders.

Joke club.

 

[SpecialBruce]

More importantly, has this dud of a manager got any of our other players on his books?

Henry Smith

 

[Fagenslions36]

My god his agent was Ben who won first big brother say no more. Cal probably should of got a proper manager not some reality tv wannabe

 

[martinson]

The reality is what was offered isn't of much use to us and there's a small if unlikely opportunity to see if he wants to stay.

Almost assured he will ultimately get there through the PSD but if that's Adelaide's strategy to attract players when in the end they had only one to ink this year they haven't got much hope of attracting any more in future

 

[Fagenslions36]

Cal should of got bob sugar

 

[Viceregal]

More importantly, has this dud of a manager got any of our other players on his books?

Henry Smith

Are players locked into contracts with their managers or can they switch effectively at whim?

Is 'I became aware that my manager is an incompetent douche' grounds for making the change?

on SENWA urging WC to grab Cal in the PSD. Would laugh if it happened...

 

[T Rick]

Henry Smith

Henry needs a new manager!

 

[Haggis McHaggis]

Listening to Justin Reid on trade radio just now was putrid. Blows smoke up Cal’s arse until the aforementioned deal options we floated were mentioned. All of a sudden Cal ain’t ever been top 10 in a B&F, is old & ain’t worth shit. Apparently no club will be able to get hold of Cal for a medical etc. Stay classy Cows.

Did you catch his comments about the value of picks at all?

Feel free to make his case.

 

[martinson]

Cal's never sought the limelight and for him I don't think this would be a particularly pleasant time.

 

[ice444]

Another club (eagles/port) could bid for cal - that would be the funniest thing ever for he crows..

He is a 2 time premiership player, I do not understand the issues the crows had with offering fair value?

 

[Dalions]

Did you catch his comments about the value of picks at all?

Valuable to who?

 

[pjcrows]

Feel free to make his case.

Essentially, teams like Adelaide place a stronger value on raw picks because we have a narrower way of bringing in young talent than a team like Brisbane. We could go tit-for-tat on whether Academy processes are fair but that's a separate argument - and it is the rules we operate under - so I'm not going to argue that here. You've benefited from the rules, as all clubs would. You've also drafted/traded very well separate from Academy/FS recently, which is a big part of your flags.

The Crows will take Cal in the PSD for nothing and move on, as I'm sure Brisbane will when they take another Academy player next month.
