Eddie Betts Quits Adelaide, to return to Carlton

[chunkylover53]

Good thing the Pies don't need EVERYTHING to go right for them to contend for premierships....

Carlton on the othe hand... (and this thread is about Carlton)

Do you know how we can tell it’s a thread about Carlton?

Because you’re here.

Crazy thought I know but maybe Betts would have kicked a few more goals this year if the Crows didn't wave a traditional indigenous heirloom at him during some dumb arse pre-season camp.

People generally perform better at their job when they don't hate the place.

How’s ur September?

 

[Toump Ass]

How’s ur September?

Not bad so far mate, thanks for asking . How's your wife doing?

 

[Red mist]

What, which one?

 

[Magruder]

Didn't Eddie say this afternoon he's contracted to the Crows until the end of 2020 and is staying at the club?

Yep and Bolton, Lyon, Richo have the full support of their boards

Looked cooked to me but maybe not enjoying football.

Probably not a terrible idea to get a mature head in Carlton’s forward line as that’s one area they don’t have one

 

[Sttew]

Great week for Carlton - Cripps MVP, Walsh RS, and Betts to return.

 

[Drewie11]

How is this thread title still going. Nowhere is there anything that says he has quit Adelaide and is joining Carlton.

 

[JackFlash]

The Blues would be taking a step backwards recruiting Betts...they are on the right track, why bugger that path up?

It’s on the Internet. So it’s true.

That he has quit the crows?

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Not what he said on 5AA yesterday morning, but I guess the Australian would know better.

Betts wants to make sure he gets paid his full value. The Crows want to get as good a pick as possible.

Maybe the belief is is that if we sign Betts it'll make us more attractive to J Martin and choose us over Dons and Dogs? We havent been able to sign anyone of note by offering buckets of cash so maybe the footy department is getting creative

Could be a sensible approach although Martin is on way too much $ at Gold Coast.

Not happening according to Carlton.

Is on 600k next year.

Nah Carlton just don't want to pay the full $600k. It's all ducks and drakes

In today's day and age, players fall off a cliff pretty quickly.

Eddie fell off the cliff this year. What can you possibly expect from him in 2020?

Could it be that it coincides with how s**t the whole team is and how poison the culture is atm?

He would not be taking any player's position and we don't have anyone that plays the role.

As min he helps mentor and we get future f/s.

Except what reason does Betts have to remain coy about it now?

 

[demondavey]

Yes

‘Weren’t my words’: Betts hits back

Adelaide Crows star Eddie Betts has rubbished claims he will be heading back to Carlton next year, the club he started his career with in the AFL.

www.news.com.au

Oh you mean the part where he said it was a load of bullshit?

 

[John Who]

What does it say on the Internet?

It says:
- he’s going and he’s staying.
- he’s cooked and he’s uncooked.
- he’s leaving because of bad culture, and he’s had some interests from bad culture.
- he loves Adelaide and he can’t wait to leave Adelaide.

From all the above, we can conclude:
The internet is lying.

It’s a media blowup. He’s staying at Adelaide.

Wash your mouth out!

Maybe as depth. Hell I would take him at Freo or 1 or 2 years.

Make Walters rotate on a wing and up forward kicking 30-35 goals

At least they went to a preseason camp unlike some other clubs
