Confirmation

[-VC-]

I think Didak is one of the softest players in the league and I hope this trade does not happen.
The only time I've seen him put his head over the ball he ended up out for about six weeks. It took him a few years of AFL footy to do it once and never again since then. And before you start questioning how much of him I've seen him play just bear in mind which club he plays for and the fact I don't go out on Friday nights.
He could turn out to be that goal sneak we're looking for, but when it's his turn to win the hard ball he better bloody well go for it.

If you guys pull off this one, it would be a big statement about your recruiting abilities. I know some may be quick to rubbish Didak as a softy sooky blah blah blah but I dare say his best football (which is still ahead of him) can fit into the first 22 of any side in the league. I really rate him as a player. That he's still reasonably young and C'wood are rebuilding, and you guys get him would be, well, amazing to say the least. Good luck with that one.

We have been talking about it for a while. We are reasonably close," Collingwood football manager Neil Balme said yesterday. "It has not been signed but it is pretty well there — we are just finishing off the last bits."

Interesting aint it??

yeh...might be like the Luke Power one where it was basically publicised and broken that he signed about round 12. It turned out he hadnt actually signed and had delayed it until last week.

The discussions Adelaide had with Collingwood roughly 10 days ago involve Alan Didak coming home to Adelaide. Does not want to go to Port.

The only issue in regards to the deal is whether we give pick 16, a player or get involved in a 3 way trade (likely).

I'd be very happy with Didak.

He signed a three year deal last month, why would he want to go back to SA a month later?

 

[Cove Cobra]

My mail is he is CLOSE to signing, hasn't signed yet. Could be very wrong though.

We will have to wait and see.

....sooo, if hes close to signing why would he come to adelaide? is it a case of he is close to signing, or was close to signing?

 

[Gets!]

Yeah im confused now, what's the go CC?

We gonna have Didak next year? (I really hope so)

Ahh, okay. I thought I read he had re-signed, might have mis-read it. Not that I tend to focus on Collingwood news very much but it tends to be prostituted as much as possible in Melbourne.

Shock, horror, no. By anyone special we'd know here.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

So is this bollocks or what?
Can our pick 17 be used to get him?

Dont want to doubt you CC but I struggle to see this happening.

Pick 16,17 & probably our 2nd round pick as well, Fevola is just not worth that plus what we would have to pay him on top of it.

I thought this thread was about Alan Didak?

I was talking about Didak, I am interested in him but after the precedent set my the Watts trade it might be a little hard to pull off.

Why would u want Didak ? Very inconsistent and overrated player

Well when one puts ones foot in it one should make a hasty retreat from the fray.


ps, Didak for pick 17 is something i could live with.

 

[Blue Red and Gold]

I would be very happy with that, but I would assume all Pies supporters would be seeing we are having a whinge about using pick 14 to get Fungus only to recieve 17 in return.

 

[Murray]

No - You said it was a CERTAINTY that Didak would be playing for Adelaide next year.

Balme on SEN yesterday said
"I haven't heard about any Didak trade rumour and he is not going anywhere anyway"

I told you on the main board the day YOU started this crap you would be made to look a fool.

Can you backpeddle any faster?

How could anyone be so stupid?

Ok there is no way in hell!! Didak will be traded for not even a top 5 draftpick let alone "gun" player..
Collingwood have put too much time into him and he is being touted as a future champion of the club.
If we wouldn't trade him for Nick Stevens, why would we for pick 16!
I think you crow boyz are just looking at bonus's rather then reality!
Nice try!!

 

[Murray]

Day three of trading virtually over and still no Didak deal.
Hmmmm, but this was a certainty.
What the hell is going on?

Now that Neil Balme has said on SEN that Collingwood will not take any further part in trade week.

How do you propose to get Didak?

What a bunch of Liars, Frauds and Fools you are

Spell - yes.
Living in a dream world - yes

Didak - not as long as your collective arses point to the ground.
