Eddie Betts

[Crow-eater]

Now on Fox Sports News and the Age website in addition to the HS

4year/$2mill deal. Yeah, I'm very happy with that.

 

[Cringle]

I'm glad you guys ended up with Eddie, instead of Norf.

Anyway, did Adelaide say they were interested in a ruck/forward... Megan Gale is on the table?

 

[Elite Crow]

You beauty, okay so who else is putting in for the carton for redhorse source?

 

[Skippy231]

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssss, better get locker no. 18 ready!

 

[Tex200]

Where's all the crybaby, sadsacks now!!!?!

Lol - now that you mention I did have a sad sack post written out, but just for once thought long and hard about hitting the button and decided to let it go and await the outcome. Glad I did.

This might not rock the AFL world a la Buddy, but a very important addition for us. The addition of a proven 40-50 goal / top ranked goal assist forward, to a misfiring forward line is a huge boost.

Congrats to the AFC for getting this done and welcome to Eddie

don't we have to wait until tomorrow so Carlton can chose to not match it?

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

Yes great pick up lets get Polec cheap and get a ruck forward cheaply and screw some one and get good pick for smack.

Yea good luck with that

 

[Crowfoot]

Never in doubt! :-"

 

[Bacon8]

don't we have to wait until tomorrow so Carlton can chose to not match it?

Officially, yes. But there's been enough talk from Mick that they won't be matching it to get excited.

 

[The Sloane Ranger]

Where are all the drama queens hiding now

welcome Eddie to the AFC

 

[Bailey01]

don't we have to wait until tomorrow so Carlton can chose to not match it?

Yeah they said yesterday on trade radio that they wouldn't be matching any deal.

 

[Rollerball]

We can finally say hey Sydney, your Goodes is good but our Betts is better!

Welcome Eddie, now let's kick some arse.

welcome Eddie to the AFC

Like who?

I don't remember any drama queens, more like concerned members. So who are they?

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

Carlton won't be matching it.

 

[Elite Crow]

OMG you know what this means? Rucci got a story right

 

[Wood_Duck]

Carlton won't be matching it.

A million bucks short in fact.

interestingly, for $500k a year we are getting a guy who kicks 1 goal a game more that Pets, but is near identical in every other statistical measure

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

I'll miss Eddie, for a while during the dark ages he and Fev were our only real reasons for going to the games.

All the best Ed, happy he went to you blokes instead of a few kms up the road to North.

Ps. Lewis Betts is ours!!!

 

[NikkiNoo]

Woo! Welcome to Adelaide Eddie. Now do we have shorts big enough?

 

[C4[2]Yo`DooR]

A million bucks short in fact.

I wonder where that spare cash will end up? hmmmmm

 

[Crow-eater]

Carlton won't be matching it.

Very many thanks for your info on this stuff C4. It's been very much appreciated

 

[Stripple]

Betts you ripper! Made my day.

Betting on a good year now!!

Eh see what I did there?

Dominates against Collingwood though. Surely that's worth the price alone.
