Traded Bryce Gibbs [traded to Adelaide] - (cont. in Part 2)

[royeca]

Do people even watch Gibbs? He is anything but an outside player these days.

 

[Kramer1]

Gibbs mentality is why he never became an A grader. Just can't handle the heat. Sook.

Hmmm...plays game of career in final in front of 95k.

Mental midget.

 

[Blue1980]

Adelaide have quality outside players waiting to get into the side that can play the Gibbs role. Seed, Hampton, Milera and even Greenwood is coming along nicely. Probably why we are not busting our nut.

Gibbs isn't an outside player. Hasn't been for at least 3 seasons.

Expect Jarryd Lyons to join Gold Coast for pick 43. May well be the first domino in the Bryce Gibbs to Adelaide deal.

 

[Sin City]

Well if nothing else happens at least Adelaide fans found out how much Lyons is really worth

How will this have anything to do with anything? Their giving us pick 43?

 

[Drama]

Gibbs is gone next trade period if it doesn't happen today.

Was wondering that myself, but that is what it sounds like.

Quite the opposite, if he sorts his family issues out then why not keep him?

 

[Navara79]

Why would gibbs go back to Adelaide in two years time the crows put his name through mud in the past 2 weeks?

Doubtful, club has been working hard to put measures in place to keep his partner happy. Sticks has been involved as well. Don't think the trade gets done and Gibbs will come out with a statement that will make supporters happy!

We put his name through mud how exactly?

 

[FyfeToAdelaide]

Judging by the Lyons trade we are way to easy to deal with and carlton is the problem.

Is it all just white noise though? I think the real reasons are being hidden with the usual family stuff

You wanted to pay him less than $200k a year, you pushed Lyons out (we did something similar with Tuohy and got unders). Surely Adelaide won't lose midfield depth this year, what a disaster.

 

[Blue1980]

Crows fans realise its 3 years remaining on the contract? Meaning why would we let him go for less next year? Just because you want something to happen doesn't mean it will.

Judging by the Lyons trade you are offering a player who you only rate as a third round draft pick and then acting shocked when our list manager says it is not sufficient to trade one of our top 3 players

Because he'll be a year older and a year less on the contract.. why wouldnt he have a lower value after that.

 

[ThreeLeggedCrow]

True I have not seen much of Gibbs work lately and only going on highlight reels ( all outside stuff )... makes sense he has stepped up given that Judd and Carrazzo have retired. Carrots was a prolific ball getter.

 

[BluesRule]

I am OK with that as the club can negotiate it properly and we will have 2 years to go on his contract.

happy if Gibbs stays unless we get overs.

LOL no, you essentially offered us pick 13 and a fringe player worth 43 for Gibbs
It was Adelaide who tried to poach Gibbs and used his family situation as leverage to orchestrate a trade in which you wouldnt have to pay overs as you normally would for a player like Gibbs who has 3 years left on his contract, you told him you would take him and now it looks like you have gone back on your word.

Its a win - win for Carlton.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

Justin Reid and Stephen Silvagni both need to be shown the door by their clubs if can't get a simple deal done. Getting annoying

Right. The success of a list manager is based on your patience levels.

 

[BluesRule]

Gibbs will not go anywhere ever again if this does not hsappen now.

He trusted you guys to get a deal done and you hung him out to dry on day one of trade period.
