Good deal for the Crows on the basis of what he cost.
Pick 43 a few years ago and reportedly on a decent contract relative to his output.
He's a talented guy and they'd have preferred he was a long termer but if he doesn't want to be there then pick 13 is a good result.
Should be a good player for Carlton. Not so old that his output is 100% predictable but not so young that he's another kid that will be in and out of the VFL.

We gave up 2 seconds and McAdam for McGovern and a third. We never had 13.
Not too bad considering McAdam was a freebie.
TBH as much as I like Walsh, if Crows offered all 4 for pick 1, I'd probably do it.
Good grief. Ok then....
Summary:
Carlton IN: McGovern, future 3rd rounder
Carlton OUT: 2nd rounder, 2nd rounder, 5th rounder, McAdam
Sydney IN: 2nd rounder, 2nd rounder, 3rd rounder
Sydney OUT: 1st rounder
Adelaide IN: McAdam, 1st rounder, 5th rounder
Adelaide OUT: McGovern, 3rd rounder, future 3rd rounder
Yup, so you got a first rounder from Sydney and traded that to Adelaide. Agree with your summary, you traded a first.
No they didn't. For Sydney to accept the blues 2 x 2nd rounders for their 1st, we also had to cough up pick 40.
The blues paid 2 second rounders for Gov.
The trade was win/win/win.

You might want to read through the trade more thoroughly before you go any further because you obviously don’t get it.
To summarise; this was a three way deal.
Carlton gave up 2 x 2nd rounders, a 2019 5th rounder and McAdam.
SYDNEY gave up pick 13.
Adelaide gave up McGovern, a 2019 3rd rounder AND pick 40 this year (to Sydney).
Adelaide got a good return for McGovern.
I assume Sydney just wanted draft points?

Swans the winners from the annual Crows/Blues vitriolic shitfight, really don't want a version 4. Hopefully Mitch converts his talent into 22 game quality contributor.
And we got Sydneys 13 that was traded to Carlton? What part am I missing?

Carlton didn't get Sydney's pick 13.
Adelaide got Sydney's pick 13 with pick 40 & Carlton's two 2nd round picks (For McGovern)
Simple.

This is correct
Adelaide gave 2019 3rd to Carlton
Carlton Gave McAdam, Pick 26, Pick 28 and 2019 5th to Adelaide
Adelaide gave Pick 26, Pick 28 and Pick 40 to Sydney
Sydney gave Adelaide pick 13
Being factually accurate doesn't make me feel anything but factual.
I didn't know that the Crows traded with Sydney.
The way I understood the trade was as this:
Adelaide need a $10 note. Carlton have 2 $5 notes. Carlton swaps those with Sydney for a $10 note. Having obtained that $10 note it swaps with Adelaide for McGov.
So Carlton traded a $10 note for McGov to the Crows.
They way you describe it is that Carlton gave 2 $5 notes to Adelaide which then swamped them to Sydney for a $10 note.
Now facts actually matter. Which happened? And yes, I accept we are talking semantics. But as everyone seems so passionate about semantics, it's hard to accuse me of being petty.
The crows had to trade with Sydney to include pick 40.
The way you are suggesting means
Adelaide traded with Carlton to get Mcadam
Carlton traded with Sydney to get Pick 13
Then Carlton had to trade again with Adelaide to give them pick 13
It just makes no sense
Sydney didn't give us pick #13 for #26 and #28. Sydney gave up #13 for: #26 (Carlton), #28 (Carlton) and #40 (Adelaide).

Adelaide need a $10 note.
Carlton have 2x $4 = $8
Sydney have $10 note
Adelaide give $2 + Carlton's $8 to Sydney and receive a $10 note.
Get it?
Blue and Silver
Brownlow Medallist
It's more like this:
Adelaide have a book they will sell for $10
Carlton want the book, and have two $5.
Adelaide doesn't want two five notes, but a single note.
Sydney has a $10 note.
Carlton offers the two $5's to Sydney, but they need a bit extra.
Adelaide have a $1 coin they are willing to get rid of, to get the deal done.
Carlton agree to swap another, less well-regarded book to Adelaide as well for an increase from a 50c piece to a $1.
Make Sense?
No?

No use selling the farm for those two lads...
They’ll end up at the suns... and we’ll get them back at the end of their first contracts... or, given how little players care about contracts these days, maybe next year!.
We should use all four picks to just grab the best player at each pick... there’s potential top class guns all the way to pick 20.. I would love to see us nab smith though.. and that Butters kid looks a gem.
