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

So we're short one individual who didn't buy in to the team first culture, and we have $1M to spend in trade week.

Seems alright to me. As Phil would say, "next man up".

I heard and said the same thing 3 years ago!

This!!! ......Phil wouldn't have worried ....As long as we're fairly compensated ....fair's fair

2 first round picks (this & next) and a player ......plus our own first round picks really adds serious talent to the list

And Lynch.

Danger and lynch I think. Not jj.

I reckon we have closer to $1.5 million to spend. I reckon we reserved around $1.2 million for Danger's contract and an extra $300k to lure in a player this trade season (eg. Aish)

We'll it's more of a 20% win.

Lose: collateral in draft picks
Lose: a gun player
Win: didn't strengthen a rival, and has potential to compound Carlton's woes (The whole buying players thing)

Admittedly, i think Geelong will go similar to Carlton with Danger, just can't get over that messiah complex they seem to have with him. That never works, and I've followed a few



Well, no, it is a hobby for most supporters, something to do on the weekend kind of thing.

We're die-hard supporters for sure, but it's still something we just do for enjoyment.

Nah! No enjoyment at all. Its not a hobby its a religion....Jihad more likely! and its definitely not restricted to the weekends.

We have to match no question. Two first round picks is for my mind a fair outcome. Not market value, but its not an open market. Happy to give up 14 if we have too.

Absolutely disappointed in Paddy for so many reasons.

Everyone can recall at the end of last year him saying that whether we played finals etc would determine whether he signed on again this year.

The club kept its part of the bargain. Paddy hasn't.

In fact, he shamelessly changed the goalposts during the year from team success and finals to family reasons.

Unsaid is that he is prepared to renege on his own word and integrity under pressure from Mardi IMO.

What Mardi should realise is that she could not live the lifestyle that she does without Patrick and his football ability which has been developed over 7 years ( not 8) in Adelaide at the AFC. Signing on for another 2 years would not have been the end of the earth and the Dangerfields could then have moved back to Geelong without any stigma attached to either of them.

Another thing about this whole fiasco is that Paddy has compromised his own integrity publicly time after time with the same old crap being trotted out time after time. "I haven't thought about it. We'll leave that until the end of the season blah blah blah blah fkg blah!!" Right Paddy - you hadn't even thought about it until today had you - hahahahaha.

And as I mentioned above he has only spent 7 years AT the AFC by staying the first year at home for study purposes - you've short-changed us there Paddy and that leaves a big hole in your integrity IMO.

You're a great player Patrick and you've given us everything you have on the field so there is no argument there. But we also paid you in full every year as well so both sides have fulfilled their side of the deal.

Now that Paddy has decided to short change us I want my club to play the hardest ball that has ever been played with a RESTRICTED Free Agent.

Patrick has elected his right to seek to go elsewhere.

Adelaide has the RIGHT to match whatever offer Paddy receives from Geelong or any other club, so to Frank Costa plus all the various Vic journos who are talking about the spirit of Free Agency and we should let Patrick go - that is a sheer invention on your part and I suggest you read the rights of BOTH
parties.

I want and expect Adelaide to match and screw the best possible deal in exchange for the clearance of Paddy if he continues to maintain that he wants to leave.

I am so sick of losing quality players such as Tippett Gunston and now Dangerfield I want my club to hold firm even if it means Danger decides to go into the PSD - (he won't) - and Paddy ends up at Carlton or even hopefully Brisbane. Gary Lyons said that Melbourne would snaffle him up in a heartbeat but he wouldn't even make it that far - Paddy wouldn't dare go in the PSD so any threat about that is nothing more than pure chicken shit.

Time for the AFC to show now that it has the biggest ugliest set of balls around, match the offer and screw the best deal possible out of Geelong.

Amen

Well said Macca - now send it to Fages just to make sure.

 

[Godallblighty]

No need to Gary Lyon has already declared he will take Clanger if he is available at their pick.

Channel 9 have a pick in the draft?

 

[hey shorty]

So does our offer for Menzel go up ?

 

[feenix67]

I think we would have more than $1m. Im guessing, I dont know for a fact.

Yea mate I wasn't trying to be accurate, just figurative. Way to catch context

 

[GROTTO]

The Footy Show.

In all seriousness, he said Melbourne would take Danger.

 

[little graham]

Whilst it sucks for you now, who knows what might happen in the near future when you get compensated for losing Danger.

I vividly remember hearing the Judd news on the radio in 2007 while driving my car. Was gutted. The trade we did for him 8 years ago helped put the Eagles in the position that we have today.

Chins up.

*edit: come to think of it the similarities between Eagles 2007 and Crows 2015 are a bit scary. That year Mainwaring passed away, and the Eagles were knocked out of the finals in the semis. 2007 felt like rock bottom.

Appreciated.

ffs, I wasnt taking a shot at you dont be so precious. I said I didnt know myself.

 

[Crowked]

Good, he's gone. Don't let the door hit you on the way out Kurt.

 

[Kerleys Ghost]

**** him and his dog

She has a name...

Mod comment: not on

That's what we want to hear.

Means, should we match, PSD is out of the equation.

Youre lucky Danger left today, I have no spare contempt to give you.

 

[PrideOf]

Josh Jenkins. A hard man to the very end.

 

[Mike Smyth]

And?

We would if the shoe is on the other foot.

I'm talking about the players.

 

[GROTTO]

Definitely match and play hard at the table with the Cats. They are totally desperate for him. Market value arguably states he is worth 2 draft picks ie top 10 and a player. That should be our starting point.

 

[StonesThrow]

Have to say I'm pretty upset that my favourite player since his first few games all those years ago, is going before he really enters into his best footy years. Disappointing. Really hurts when I think about it.

I'm finding it hard to be angry though. Everyone has their reasons to move etc. It's his life. I think people are being pretty harsh on him regardless of how he supposedly 'baited' us into having hope of him staying.

Played his heart out for the AFC this year and every year. Put his body on the line more than any other player over the last decade.

It was good while it lasted Danger

Disappointed I won't be able to yell that name anymore

 

[Golumless]

Ah right, i'm used to you being one of those people that care what the pond scum (the original pond scum, not Carlton) think about us.

Plus, again that's a who cares thing.

 

[Orange]

That's a disgraceful comment.

Wow. just wow.
