"If we get to the end of the year [and he's still not signed] we'd certainly be asking questions come trade week again whether he'd be interested in coming to our footy club."​

If so, what would you accept from the Lions as part of the trade deal?

He will sign in the next few weeks /thread

Polec and first pick......


But irrelevant news story anyway.

 

[cmndstab]

I doubt he'll still be unsigned by end of season.

Polec is already contracted to the end of 2014 I'm pretty sure.

Doesn't matter if he has signed. He can be traded if you want Tippett enough. But as others have said, wont' happen.

first pick, bartlett and redden hehe for tippett and symes

 

[Geoffa32]

I reckon they can chuck in one of them Premiership Cups as well.....



Oh and if he does go, Tip may want to employ his own firefighting service.....Tex wont be happy.

Aker can hand over his Brownlow to Macca too.

It won't happen. Tippo will sign a 3 yr deal. he'll be 28 then, if he goes back to QLD he will still have sum currency if he wants to leave then. Why would you want to leave when your surrounded by a good winning culture. If he did leave now, Brisbanes window will open after he retires, from where I see it.

 

[Smoooothy]

i wish you the best of luck with this

 

[Wood_Duck]

Whatever.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Not sure this needed to be a new thread.

Anyway, I also believe he'll re-sign with Adelaide shortly, why wouldn't he?

I'll just dream in the meantime.

 

[Geoffa32]

I hear Fev kicked 18 goals......Wonder if Crazy Voss heard as well??

 

[Heafy83]

Tippett will be signed with Adelaide within 2 weeks, you can bank on it

Inside word or vibe from all the released snippets?

It's front page news on the AFL website at the moment ... and with the Search facility MIA it's very difficult to dredge up relevant old threads on the topic. The justification for this being a new thread isn't great, but it's good enough.

Just a gut feeling. Got the same about Danger and said the same to a mate. Within the next few days Danger was signed. Expect the announcement to come on a Mon or Tues too. Seems as if the club likes announcing them early in the week.

Brisbane are nowhere near winning a flag and with GC and GWS likely to peak around the same time they're likely to be in a position to do so, Tippett would regret moving north at this point of his career for the rest of his life.

He's already one of the highest earners in the competition, and the Crows are in a strong position to win a premiership(s) in the next few years. This is a no brainer, Tippett will stay with the Crows and move back to QLD once our premiership window closes.

I'd like a young KPF, a 2nd round pick, and the 2001 brownlow medal.

 

[Hollow Knight]

Massive amount of sauce in that headline by AFL.com.au

Makes it sound like we've made some audacious, ambitious play for him, when in reality, all our football manager has done is directly respond to a question from a journo with a pretty straight bat essentially saying "He'll be loving life in Adelaide right now and it would seem very likely he will stay, but yes, we would be borderline idiotic to not talk to him on the miniscule chance that he was out of contract at the end of the year and wanted to come back to Queensland."

..........and yet you let parallel threads on Talia run for days.

Since when was his Rising Star nomination not worth a thread of its own?

 

[LC40]

Let's just make an offer on Bartlett anyway!

 

[Freddy Bassett]

Brisbane missed the boat.... They could of got him last year...

No chance he is leaving now....
