He is tied to GWS for how ever many years he nominates, (minimum of 2) most likely 4 because that is the contract that he has been offered by the swans. Do GWS want to take the risk of a player who dosnt wnat to be there for 4 years.

Hint: Sheedy is still trying to sell it.
That's not right. If he declines to go GWS their hold isn't based on how long he nominates.

He can go back into draft in 2 yrs.

Which is why none of this will happen

It'll cost plenty, he will put a price on his head that will need to be bench marked for all the young "guns" they have, once they come out of contract they will expect/demand to be paid at that bench mark price, in turn it'll place undue pressure to retain,
Think for just a minute a Cameron/Patton ect really fulfill their potential in next year or two....
Future impact on GWS and that's the balancing act that looms in not to distant future...oh and If we miss Tippett guess who's got money to spend??
sounds like your trying to convince yourself

It's inspiring just when you think this thread is set to die a crow flog comes in once again to tell us how it's Gunna be.

There's plenty of other threads to jizz all over we don't actually give a shit about Tippett or where he goes we get him great he goes to GWS doesn't matter.

But if it's one thing that this thread proves its that Cassandra's you are not, blind yes, but that's about it.

then what are you worried about, and why are you trying to tell yourselves that GWS doesn't have the absolute upper hand? They hold all the cards not you.

No your the one coming in here trying to well I not exactly sure what your trying to do?

Surely you'd have more fun on your board wishing ill will on Tippett and the evil evil swans?

After all nothing for you has changed this isn't about us you are still after Tippett how much of a bad guy he is, he's your boogeyman so have him go to GWS where he, can't hurt you anymore.

Is that what this is about? You can't stand that people even entertain the notion that he may still end up at the swans? That he may still win out of this whole ordeal?

Not to smart are we.

Hang around. If you can shut up for a while and read you may actually learn something. GWS may have the upper hand but that dosn't mean they are going to play it. The trouble with most of you over on the crows board is you post what you want to happen.

Why only this morning someone wanted the afl to reverse the trade and give the crows 23 + Rohan. These things never happen.

Now tell me this. Why is Sheedy still trying to sell Tippett on GWS. Why is Davis texting him if all they have to do is take him in the PSD. You have to think sometimes. It is because Sheedy knows it is a huge risk to take him if he dosn't want to go there. It will be a four year term and that could completely derail GWS for the next 10 years if it backfires.

Most people on footy would understand this, though maybe not the crows board. They still want the afl to give them a small fine and a stern talking to over the salary cap.

So if you are going to stay, try reading more and posting less. Or come back when the afl have smashed you with fines and loss of draft picks for salary cap cheating and tell us how hard done by you are.

Gws can take Tippet we'l just offer Patton or Cameron a packet in a couple years once their body's are right. They'll regret signing spuds like scully when they can't afford these two

Both great examples for why GWS should take him. Good resale values if they want
Ignoring your other pointless posts but this is laughable. Pay a guy a million dollars a year for possibly 4 years because you might be able to trade him later? Wow, this whole debacle isn't exactly bringing out the intelligence of Adelaide supporters. You guys have just spent a month complaining about what we offered but in a year with GWS trying to get a million dollar player who doesn't want to play for them off their list we'll pay more? LOL.

Fascinating insight from the Brisbane Lions perspective, regarding, amongst other things, Tippett and their interest in Jesse White during the trade period.

Copied over from the Adelaide board (all credit to whatboutbob).
NB Rob Kerr is the National Talent manager for the Lions.
Thought you guys might be interested in the Lions' perspective on Kurt:
