I'm hearing a deal was done in principle after last years trade deadline with adelaide and hawthorn which sees Gibbs go to adelaide, sicily come to us and an adelaide player go to hawthorn. Not sure on what picks change hands just yet. Will try and find out more in a couple of days.

HAW- Out 2018 1st rounder & Sicily, In Lever
CAR- Out Gibbs, In Hawks 2018 1st rounder & Sicily.

That is worse for us than what Adelaide reportedly offered last year.

 

[Lace_Out]

A top 5 pick amd Sicily may be as good as it gets.
I'm seeing it as Adelaides 1st and instead of onr of their players they have dealt to get Sicily over to us instead.

Wouldn't be against Hawthorns first and Sicily for Gibbs, particularly if we can use the first to get Kelly.

If the deal Essentially ends up:

Out - Gibbs, 2017 First Rounder
In - Kelly, Sicily

 

[RattAttack]

If this years draft is what they say it is, I think I'd prefer Hawks 1st next year (possible top 5 pick) and Sicily.

2018 is meant to be a bumber draft

Hawthorn are rubbish and will only get worse with Gibson, Hodge, Burgoyne etc retiring.

Getting our hands on their 2018 first would be huge

 

[Lace_Out]

Agree

Hawks dont have a first rounder this year. Next years and Sicily doesnt cut it neither.

 

[Toddski]

Would welcome Sicily with open arms. Good versatile forwards with skill and aggression don't grow on trees.

 

[HavUEvaSeenTheRain]

On the crows board I see people saying they'd prefer Rocky over Gibbs as a player. I guess Adelaide like stat accumulating plodders. Rocky's 40 touches are the equivalent of 18 Gibbs disposals.

Even so, I want to keep Gibbs, trade for Kelly and have a midfield party.

I guess they are looking at it like this
Gibbs vs Rockliff, 2017 first rounder and 2018 first rounder. The Rockliff route looks much more appealing for them

Except he is not one.

Hawks are even using him in defence and they cannot score. Not convinced.

 

[Jabba73]

Adelaide can take Siciliy and give us a pick instead. Willing to swap their 2018 first for our 2018 3rd. Keep Hawks 2018 first and we are in good shape.

Out: Gibbs, 2018 3rd
In: Adelaide 2018 1st and Hawks 2018 1st

 

[My name geoff]

I mean us giving our first rounder this year and Hawthorns first next year for kelly

So 'essentially' Gibbs and our 2017 1st for Kelly and Sicily

Sicily is as good as McGovern and people seem to cream themselves over him

 

[The Flying Doormat]

Michelangelo Rucci is running a story that says the Crows have gone cold on Gibbs and they're going after Rockliff instead.

Once upon a time

Good on them... the kid is a plodder and a disease.

Gibbs can stay and help our young mids develop.

I think they were talking purely about on field ability. In terms of acquiring one, rockliff would cost less for sure

 

[HBF]

If you were SOS, would you chase Rocky?

No.
Too much trouble IMO.

Hawks would be flaming mad to give up a future 1st two years in a row. Can't see it happening.

Cats did. They also get Lever, better than the defenders they currently have.

 

[Foucault1989]

Hawthorn could finish last next year. If Hodge, Gibson and perhaps burgoyne retires. I'd take that in a heartbeat but I suspect Adelaide would want more than Gibbs for lever

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Ahh ok. Still, I don't get why we only look at 24 and under players if that's not all we're playing.

Projections for the future.

Also our over 24's only really include Gibbs, Murph, Cas, Kreuzer, Wright, Simpson, Curnow and Jones. Most of the team is 24 and under or a role player - e.g Thomas.

 

[Azul]

Except he is not one.

Hawks are even using him in defence and they cannot score. Not convinced.

Putting aside he has a very ugly head, how many 6'1" utilities that can play at both ends do we have?

 

[Big_Luch]

Rockcliff is a seagull, just accumulates loose chips(touches) around the ground.

Gibbs would be main target with rocky a distant second.
