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

[F_therest]

This is the thing im finding. Some supporters are getting impatient, while others realise you're still a way off.
Just disappointing you couldnt nail one of your potential recruits. Would've made it a lot easier to let Gibbs go.

Probably done by now if we had gotten Rockliff.

I blame Port.

Gibbs to crows is 100% happening.

I've got exceptionally good mail on this.

Any idea of the deal make up? cheers

I don't sorry. I trust my mail on this one. All I've been told is that it will definitely happen and most probably on the last day.

So have we on the Carlton board. Still, it is delicate what SOS is chasing so best to wait and see.

 

[Fitzroy bears]

Its interesting, both parties saying nothing is happening but it keeps resurfacing.
Who is running with it?

Tbh I think it's quite obvious. Adelaide doesn't want to chase gibbs cause carlton will ask for a premium and carlton don't want to offer gibbs up cause it will lower his value, but Adelaide still want him and when asked privately ( off the record) they confirm their interest, the blues want to trade him and privately they confirm this intention and cycle continues.

The problem is both clubs are coming from a position of need. Yet neither want to make the first move. Carlton need to trade gibbs to complete the Kennedy deal and Adelaide need gibbs to complete the cameron deal. The cameron deal needs to be completed because the cameron camp made things too public and carlton need to complete the Kennedy deal because they made a commitment to him.

Edit: Adelaide should engage brisbane to negotiate a 3 way trade with picks and players, then both clubs save face and all deals get completed

You are right about what is happening behind closed doors but we don't need to trade Gibbs to get Kennedy.

Sure no problem - two first round picks for Gibbs and pick 40

 

[FlowersByIrene]

Some posters on here are going to be furious when the Crows cough up 10 and 16/18 for Bryce on Thursday morning... i cannot wait.

The fact that Kennedy nominated you a while before the trade period started and it's 48 hrs before it closes and deal hasn't been done suggests otherwise, but I am not here to argue. If it can be done without gibbs then so be it, I come in peace, it is just an opinion

Don't be cynical. Just an assessment, but hope you get it

And if they don’t? You will be in hiding for a few weeks?

Our 2018 2nd is sitting there. We don't want to give it up but it is there.

 

[sonnywalters]

So effectively Gibbs for Kennedy

haha

Yep.
But Gibbs can walk next year and you will get pick 20 only if you are lucky. He turns 29 in March.

Dreaming.

2 years.

Try again Sonny.

 

[La Dispute]

Actually he's contracted for 2019 too.

Given we're reluctant to give up even a second rounder for Kennedy and wont budge on two firsts for Gibbs a straight swap wont be entertained.

16 & 18 and we get back Carltons future second rounder

Did you miss the memo on this? Going early is ripe for a backfire.

Fair enough, but as you said if carlton wanted to use it the deal would have been done by now, but you are right they certainly can offer that if nothing else presents and would be more than fair for Kennedy.

 

[davis_756]

I must admit I was surprised when it popped up on our board 10 + 16 has been offered. They really must not rate this draft or something on our end was left out like a 2018 2nd or 3rd.

Be interesting to see what happens now.

I think they are attempting the 3-way at the moment.
You know its silly season when reports surface that the crows want Zorko for Cameron lol

I blame Port.

They overpaid, dont be dismayed, not many good games lately has little Tommy played.

Oh dear.
If it was that easy we would've done it last year.
He doesnt go UP in value after another year.
