Oppo Camp Dangerfield's Gone (Zero tolerance to trolling) - READ THREAD LINKED IN OP BEFORE POSTING

Surely Crouch is off limits? 20 year old ball magnet.

 

[ManInTheArena]

And yet CEY is on the outer…I just don't get it.

I don't know why people keep saying he's on the outer. He really dropped off in his last couple of AFL games and deservedly got ommited. Then he wasnt outstanding in the SANFL except for one or two games. He needs another big preseason.

 

[Jack McKraken]

Shock horror, I thought Danger was going into the draft if we match. Funny how talk comes to trade. They know Adelaide holds the cards now.

So. Much. Posturing. Except for our club, much like the whole year

Unless he's wanting to be traded, he's uncontracted.

He's a candidate to improve massively after pre season. Was great for ten games, has shown he has what it takes and there is now a spot for him with Danger gone. Hoping for him to really step up next year.

 

[CrowsB4hoes]

Who cares what his manager says. It's completely irrelevant. What does his leg waxer say? We should match? You beauty!

 

[1970crow]

Genuine question. Why isn't Crouch re-signed?

He played most of the year. I assume he'd have had a contract sitting with him for 6 months.

I reckon he's gone. But I'm in the minority around these parts on that.

I hope he doesn't leave, upside is huge, which is why he's being courted.

It's all about value. If he's part of something bigger and he wants to leave - we do it IMO

 

[radiojake]

If Crouch wants to leave / Crows want to trade him, it'll make the Bernie Vince trade the most diabolical piece of list management in the club's history...

He had been good. Got dropped to the sub vest and came on and was critical against BNE. Then had one bad half and banished to the 2's. Compare that to the treatment of Wright, Dmac and VB playing shit game after shit game. And people wonder why the younger guys who have experienced this treatment remain unsigned. Like Danger, Crouch may have made up his mind well before he played out this year.

Mackay 4 years is still worse.

So is the whole Tippett thing.

 

[Moonwatcher]

In reality, trading Vince and signing Mackay is all part of the Tippett fallout.

EDIT: Soon after our draft sanctions Dangerfield started talking about the possibility of success being the major factor in any decision he would make regarding his playing future. Tippettgate removed any chance of Adelaide keeping Dangerfield too.

Depends what we get for Crouch in a trade. But I don't think he's going

He is off limits. All this Crouch talk is BS.

For sure - and probably you are right

but symbolically, this would take the cake. Traded out a club favourite, who did not want to leave, to get back into the 1st Round and right from the start Adelaide publically said they wanted Crouch (Party at Sando's?) - they got their man, and two years later there is talk of him being offloaded already? You can't script that shit

 

[Crowbling]

Duck Fangerfield.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

Well you are going to be disappointed. Geelong don't have two top 10 draft picks.

There might - 2015 pick #9 & their 2016 1st rounder is a good possibility.

And a very probable one IMO. This makes the most sense.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

What quacks .......sorry just saw it was Rucci ......

If you really want a laugh to lighten the mood on the board ATM ......do yourself a favor and have a giggle

Time for rooch to head to Italy, as this is just pure trolling.

Safe now I'm back from my trip.

No it didn't. It was a convenient excuse at the time. Didn't you notice that when we started doing better than Geelong success in footy suddenly went out the window and his family became more important.

 

[Jack McKraken]

But people are assuming that AFC and GFC are not running their ideas by the AFL before agreeing to anything.

This. IF a "dodgy" trade happens, it's in full view and with the consent of the AFL.

 

[Crowked]

Why isn't Connors using the compensation Geelong got for losing Gary Ablett? It would be a much more appropriate comparison than Buddy Franklin.

Also after giving Dangerfield the opportunity to complete his schooling first and then play 7 years of AFL football, you would think he and his manager would be more respectful. Pretty conclusive proof our no dickheads policy is failing.

 

[TheLeftFist8]

All this worries me.

Why are we trying so hard to dream up rubbish using the compo pick? Geelong will be the ONLY winners out of that.

No other fair trade (enough to pass the AFL tests) will come close to bridging the gap in value in the Danger for 14 crap. And it's not even Geelong's 14!

Please AFC, forget the compo! 2 1sts is unders for Danger…it's the minimum bottom line. I'd like to add Gore to that equation to make it a little closer to fair.

 

[Jack McKraken]

If he went to the draft he would be lucky to make it to pick 3, a club would grab him he would play there if he wanted to leave grab a couple of first picks for him if they could convince him to stay the likelihood of finding someone like him in the draft is about 2%

Draft is in Adelaide this year? Imagine the roar when traitorfield gets picked up before the lowballers can pick
