Rumour circulating in Adelaide

[RooDog]

Hi Guys n Girls,

i was just wondering if any of you had heard or have any thoughts on a rumour that is currently doing the rounds in adelaide, i have heard this from three recruiting officials from three different clubs!

it is the Tarrant will be traded at the end of the year as Collingwodd think he is creating too much trouble around the club and is a distraction just like Hall was at the Saints.

Just interested in your thoughts and comments, what sort of player/pick would you want for him if it is true?

thanks

adam

S.Welsh, J.Smith and N.Lonie in a 3 club deal

i doubt he would come to adelaide, im not suggesting that im just saying rumour is he is leaving collingwood and not by choice... he was homesick in melbourne and that is atleast his home state!

 

[eddiesmith]

Didnt mean he would go to Adelaide, might go to Hawthorn in a 3 club deal where Hawks would give someone to Adelaide and Pies get Smith and Lonie and Welsh from Adelaide

I just want Lonie, Smith and Welsh and dont care how we get them

I'd want more than Lonie, Smith and Welsh for Tarrant.
Lonie wouldn't get a run in our best 22, Smith, while a great player, is getting on in age, and Welsh has flashes of brilliance but then goes dead.

Exactly, thats a disgraceful deal.

i dont think you really thought that one through.....
we lose a bit and gain not much in return

 

[grayza]

also, i wouldnt be surprised if that eventuates because he is a bit of a loose cannon, and eddie wouldnt want to much bad publicity for the club as a result of one player, although he could also easily turn it all around

wonder if port would have him for salopek and/or thustans and/or draft pick ???

So why not name all theses incidents Taz has been involved in.
I can think of two over 3 years.

Compare that to others and it is almost insignificant.

So IMO that makes the rumour bullsh1t.

i cant see collingwood trading tarrant - the guy is a absolute gun, and much needed in the collingwood forward line

 

[hotpie]

Wouldn't shock me if Tarrant was traded. You need leadership on and off the field and Taz is a loose cannon. We have plenty of talls to cover the loss, although none as good as him and none proven yet.

Having said that, it would be nothing short of the very best trade before we let him go. Something of the order of a straight swap for Chris Judd would be considered, anything less and we are giving him away.

Funny you should say that (Tarrant for Judd), that was the rumour going around from some W.A media personality on SEN the other week, he was fairly adament it was true

 

[Knowledge]

hahahah Tarrant for Lonie, Welsh, Smith would be the worst trade in the History of the AFL

Judd for Tarrant I could live with but whos judd gonna kcik the ball to?

 

[guess_who]

Very much dobt it, they will do any thing to hold on to Tarrant!!! Unless the right deal would come up! Such as Hodge, Hay and Croad for Tarrant! That will not happen, there fore Taz will stay put.

 

[F-U]

Mark Seaby and 1st Rounder for Chris Tarrant...... that would be the absolute most Collingwood could hope for. Being a loose cannon wouldnt increase his trade value so id half your expectations because thats probably what he is worth in the real world..

 

[Lonie_from_50]

Chris Tarrant traded - 50% chance, especially with the off-field incident with Mark Johnson. His marking and strength as a forward is a big quality in his game, but as a forward you need to kick goals, which he is inconsistant in that area. On Friday night he kicked 0.4 and missed 2 others. If he can improve his kicking I would say no, but If Collingwood are wanting something else, then I wouldn't mind, but it better not be for something low quality in return. Collingwood need to redevelop the side and by doing that, aggressive trading is the way to go.

I think this would be a quite a fair trade with West Coast Eagles - Chris Tarrant traded to West Coast for Adam Hunter, David Wirrpunda and Paul Johnson. Unsure about contracts at West Coast, and Taz is contracted at Collingwood at around $500,000 a year, so....

I would love to trade to the West, whether experienced or not!!!

are u serious........

 

[GreekLunatic]

every year its the same thing tarrant wants to go and he doesnt all im saying he will be a pie player next yr too

 

[Z_K]

Get it done Pie fans!!!

Tarrant's staying right where he is.

 

[rychenroller]

are u serious........

He couldnt be, no-one is that silly, not even our supporters.

 

[GlovemanGayfer]

For us to trade Taz we would need to get a big name or something worth while otherwise the fall out from the supporters and media would be unreal. Eddie and Mick are not going to let him go for a pick and a hack unless the pick is to 1 or 2 and the hack is James Clement mark 2.

 

[Lonie_from_50]

are u serious........

I am being serious, that it would be a fair trade!!! I have watched every AFL Game this season, and Adam Hunter has been brilliant, while Paul Johnson is a huge talent.

But... Chris Tarrant is not leaving!!!!

 

[The Clokes]

i've never seen so much ******** talked before
C Tarrant is staying put

lets move on


ps "lonie from 50" get off the drugs
