If crouch is after coin he needs a contract this year or he will be tearing up $400k to $500k this coming year

If that's what he is after his manager will need to work for his commission

That is what I am getting at, Crouch never want to play for GCS but just a money digger to up his contract. I don't mind giving top pick but his salary is the issue. Look at Gibbs, every teamate look at him as money digger, instead of teamate.

Mediocre contested/clearance player who turnovers the frequency with his horrible disposals.


Purely based on volume crouch is probably worth a pick in the 12-20 range... Probably a bit higher given what Adelaide can get from FA next year if he does leave. But Crouch is not worth remotely close to pick 1/2 let alone pick 1 + pick 15.

Then he can stay and make less this year and go as an RFA next year

Crows will be bottom 4 in 2020

You guys have got a long long rd ahead

Tell me why we have a long road ahead?
Because we're trimming a bunch of dead wood and fringe players.


Betts (32) - dropped - arguably best 22
Jenkins (31) - dropped - not best 22
Greenwood (28) - dropped - not best 22
Ellis Yolman (27) - not best 22

*note - ages are at start of next season.

Keath is the only one that we wanted to retain but we have a bloke called Doedee who is even better waiting to return from injury.

We will be in a similar position next year I'm willing to bet. I know we wont be competing, but our demise is greatly exaggerated.

After all of your pious pontificating on the Tim Kelly thread, surely you’d support Adelaide letting Crouch go for massive unders, purely out of the kindness of their hearts....

I think its the other way around.
You're after like 47 first round picks.

I think cats fans can suck eggs if I'm being honest.
You have consistently got players for unders and tried to top up with mature age players.

Now someone wants to leave and you're all losing your minds.

And Tim Kelly is good...but he is no Dangerfield

Mate he's won 2 flags and decided time to finish up looking after himself and topping up the old bank account.

I reckon Richmond are looking ok at the moment and are unlikely to miss him.
I thought hawks were screwed when Franklin left but another two flags came...
 
Don't worry, we will keep our B&F winner with a new deal on much less than a $1M per season.
Might have to pay him $2m to fill up the cap space after all of your players leave

Crouch surely is only worth $600-700,000 at Adelaide.

Still don't think GCS should pay him more than $700-800,000 surely...

If you notice my post says 'Could'

I love a bet but something im confident in not something that could 'possibly' happen
But happy to bet you wont make finals

Now thats more like it.
I honestly think we'll win 1 or 2 less games and finish 10-14ish

We have only lost one player from our top 10 B+F
