Crows looking to trade Ladhams and Bode

[silky-smooth]

Strong romours that Adelaide want to trade Chris Ladhams and Matty Bode for a high draft pick or a key player. They need a key forward and another ruckman - possibly one or even both could be coming if the Stenglein deal goes through.

I have heard that the crows were choosing between either Ladhams or Bode to keep and have decided on keeping Ladhams. But its most probably only a rumour.

They are both up for trade but its not for draft pick. I think its likely to be player-player trades.

I think first priority is to get the Stenglein deal over the line then worry about these other deals.

Apparently Brett Burton is also up for trade.

Yeah heard about that. Hasn't done all that much last season, though he was injured for the majority of the year.

Fosdike for Bode anyone???

Seems reasonable

Burtons a tough one. Some times i think he is a good player and then sometimes he seems really ordinary. I think he would be a better player up forward than on the wing. Do you think we would get a good trade for him?

Why would anyone go for Ladhams? He's already cried homesick once and left his previous club with nothing - who would take the risk of him doing it again? It doesn't do to reward these players, or clubs that exploit them.

Of course if you're trading like for like (Ladhams for O'Bree), then it could work.

Didn't Craig recently say Burton would not be traded

Ladhams for McGough

Don't want either at the Dees. Though given the manner in which Bode was acquired one can understand Crows fans willingness to be rid of him.

With Scott Thompson wanting to back to SA its a great great shame that Ayres is no longer in charge - we could've got Reilly and Watts (throwing Luke Williams in as a sweetener of course)!
