How Crow Can You Go? An Adelaide Football Club Saga

[gandaal]

But we can still finish above North

Which would be awesome. They have two relatively easy games though, while we are playing two of the best teams in the comp.... and St Kilda. They have Port in Melbourne and Melbourne in Melbourne.

True, but the way they played last night it is still 50/50

Port are hitting some form, Demons can still win one without jeopardizing an early pick

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

If Freo win today they are almost certain to finish above Adelaide (if the Crows go winless).

The good old Aints will probably stitch us up again though

Pick 3 for Pick 10 and Stocker lol ... Jesus Reid you are like father xmas lololololololol

Could be Pick 4 for Pick 10 and Stocks by this evening if we get up.

I'd still do that trade if I was Adelaide. They obviously didn't rate Stocker, and he's shown little so far to prove they were wrong.

And they desperately need high draft picks.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Stocker has shown little?

Please.

 

[FitzroyBlueBagger]

Could be as good as
Stocker and pick7 for pick4
Stocker Papley and change (pick/player)
Bravo SOS Bravo...

 

[gandaal]

Stocker has shown little?

Please.

Like most first year players he's got a lot to work to do. That's totally normal.

I like him, I think he will be very good. I believe he'll make Adelaide regret this trade by himself, but I'm not so one eyed to suggest that his performances so far would be making them doubt themselves. And the same can be said for us.

I always prefer 2 over 1

 

[Newton Blues]

How good would it be if Stoker won the rising star next year

 

[footyfan1978]

How good would it be if Stoker won the rising star next year

oh *, due to injuries he will still be eligible next year as he will not get over 10 games this season. That is awesome to consider as some more fun to look forward to.

 

[Robertio]

At current ladder positions the trade is reasonably close but probably a little in our favour whether you look at it based on points or the quality of players historically drafted with the picks swapped.

However, if the pick differential moves any closer, with each pick it becomes significantly more in our favour.

I honestly think that by the end of it, the player they pick up with pick 3 or 4 will be no better than Stocker OR the player we get from trading their pick.

Feel like it will end up a 2 for 1 deal to us.

It was, from day 1.

 

[Just Kreuzing]

Adelaide v bulldogs last round should be good

In sunny Ballarat...

 

[Robertio]

Crows will surely be in tenth position tomorrow night. How low can they crow

They stopped crowing after we beat them.

Don't forget Gold Coast could well be gifted a pre-1st round priority pick. Caro has been harping on for the last couple weeks about it, likely she is playing the AFL stooge to soften up the public to it.

If so, that would shift everyone out by one.

So at the end of our GSW/St Kilda/* horror stretch the Crows were headed for pick 1.
In comes the Teague train and currently they appear to be headed for pick 3, but with a GC PP that shifts to pick 4.
With some luck that could even move out to pick 5 since the Swans look bad.

AND this is a far weaker draft than last year.
Crows are dreamin' if they think this lone pick will rescue their sinking ship.

By the way, we drafted Crippa and Curnow with picks 13 and 12, we can pick in the teens quite well

Don't forget the prospect of the Suns or Melbourne getting band 1 compo if they lose some high profile free agents.

EDIT disregard as there are no likely players that would warrant such a pick

Who?
Last year everyone knew Tom Lynch was leaving.
This year I haven't heard of any prime movers from either.

I thought Martin was a free agent. Guess I was wrong....
