On trade radio now.

Barrett speaking now --
Kerridge + 28 to Carlton for Menzel deal pending

Referring to Menzel's manager Ramanaskas on the radio earlier in the day lol.
Speaking about if Adelaide came knocking, didn't knock it back.

"But you never say never in these things..." his managers quote.


Wallace speaking now, one guy going home and another guy going home. Wallace critical on Menzel sitting in the forward pocket all game and needs to get fitter, especially as a first round draft pick, can't be too one dimensional etc.

Wallace likes Kerridge, says he's a better competitor than Menzel albeit without the natural football talent.

Barrett also believes a medical has been scheduled for Menzel at the Adelaide Crows, medical is expected to be done today.

Trade radio reporting Menzel almost a done deal ......would have enough sources to confirm
If we end up with Menzel, Hampton, the Seed, Gore and pick 9 and 13 our list is in better shape even considering the loss of Danger IMO

They're mentioning the Kerridge + Second Round Pick for Menzel deal on Trade Radio right now
The thing with Terry saying that Menzel's issue that as a first round draft pick he only plays one position. It wasn't Troy that picked himself/judged him as a first round draft pick. So instead of slagging off the player, he should be having a go at the list manager/recruiter who selected him!

Toumpas was a steal for you guys. Helps your depth. This would top it though..
I haven't watched a hell of a lot of either, given I'd rather swallow razor blades than watch those 2 teams play....

But yeah on face value it's an absolute reaming. Definitely beats the Toumpas deal for getting someone on the cheap.

You might be happy to, but I doubt there's a list manager in the country who would agree with you. Four year players, with 27 games, who weren't selected for a single game in 2015, do not attract picks in the 2nd round.

Quote from Rooch (in his online article today) who only writes facts! Kerridge was a No. 27 pick by Adelaide in the 2011 draft and has played 26 AFL games in three seasons, 14 this year.

Now who could be correct ?? Vader or Rooch??? I thought I saw all games this year but did not see Kerridge!
Played a non statistical role...:rolleyes:

So who still thinks Toumpas was the steal of the trade period? if this is true it seems pretty lopsided.

Definitely made up for getting unders in the Danger deal IMO.

I think it was only fair. Best of luck with Toumpas. Apologies for my behaviour yesterday.


Port can claim daylight robbery

Don't think we are going to trade Menzel for Kerridge that will mean we have given away another future gun for nothing.
You might need our pick 28 to help land all the GWS players you're chasing .....it depends on what Carlton net at the end of the trade period

Would Carlton be interested in doing the trade for Kerridge and 28 this year without the fear of losing him for less next year?

They then have picks 20, 21 and 28 to chase GWS for an early pick, eg. 7 or 8 or chase some other player.

Also IF we get Menzel in the Kerridge trade, and delist Wright, we then only have 1 live pick for the draft, without delisting someone else.

Would still want to use 9 & 13.
I think you're assuming we upgrade both rookies.

I agree, these players haven't even reached their full potential unlike Henderson, Selwood and co.
If they actually hit their straps this COULD be the final piece in the puzzle, our team would no longer be mediocre.
