I read the sports section of the age today and find carlton are taking some kid called bryce gibbs with pick 1. how come they are announcing it so early, is this normal? also, if this kid slipped through to pick 13 would Adelaide draft him?

Who?

News to me.
 
Bryce who? Poor kid, guess they want him to know now so they can avoid the look of shock and dissapointment when the camera's are on him on draft day. Get him through the 5 stages of grief now sort of thing.

Stage 1

Denial-"this can't be happening to me" Not accepting or even acknowledging the loss.

Stage 3

Bargaining-bargaining often takes place before the loss. Attempting to make deals with the player who is leaving, or attempting to make deals with God to stop or change the loss. Begging, wishing, praying for them to come back.
 
What about Murphy? Did you tell him early last year too so he wouldn't break down on draft day?

Carlton = Rabble - chances are anyone you pick up will try to walk out of the club after a year or two anyhow :rolleyes:

Im sure James Fantasyland really cares that we pick up Brye Gibbs. And deep deep down so do the majority of Crows Supporters. He has been pumped up so much by everyone from Fantasy, Kevin Sheehan and other experts, that you have been salavating since hearing his name. And Cursing since you found out you wont get him. Sure in 3, 4, 5 years, you will make a play for him. Either you wither out and finish last or pay a vey hefty price. Thats the way it goes. The best talent goes to the worst performed. And that is definitely Carlton.

Who cares. Wow... I'm salvating that Josh Fraser was a number 1 pick and he's soooo good isn't he/ He hasn't set the world on light yet but he's a ruckman. Just because he's the first pick doesn't meen he is gonig to be CHris Judd like. I can safely say he won't live up to predictions. Also tell your supporters to calm down and stop making threads about would you trade the Number 1 pick for Chris Judd.

You feel great about finishing 16th 2 years in a row;).
 
Im not trolling, nor saying anything disparaging. Just stating facts. You guys have all bemoaned the fact you aint getting him. He will sign a 3 or even 4 year deal. And when he does come out of contract you wi;ll make a play for him. I have no doubt. But in that time he will cost. Whether it be in draft picks and players or payment to him contract wise. Or you can be as bad as us, grab the wooden spoon and claim him in the year he comes out of contract. Yes we are a rabble. Yes we are crap/ And i hate the fact that we are. But its that fact that will let us grab a Bryce Gibbs, And he is ours

When were we bemonaing? If GIbbs was only a top 20 prospect then there wouldn't have been all this drama and the AFL would have changed the rules so it is FAIR. The father son rule is a joke for us and some other interstate clubs. We want the rule to be changed, who cares about Bryce GIbbs, its done and dusted, we WANT THE RULES TO BE CHANGED so it is fair.

Well good on you mate. Take your trumpet and blow it elsewhere because we don't care.
 
Agree that the rule has to be changed. I cant see any interstate club bar Lions and Swans Benefitting from the rule. If POrt didnt squeel to the AFL would they have actually known about it?

Just to know, what does qualify the Crows Power etc to father son selections?

Pointless signing him up for 3 or 4 years. There is absolutely no way he will be at Carlton in 3 or 4 years time. Infact Carlton won't even be around, you will be bankrupt and be forced to fold. Goodbye Carlton.
