Gee the syd fans are becoming arrogant in this thread, don't blame Adel for wanting to dump tippet into the PSD.
Hopefully Tippet goes to a club he doesn't want to go to and it'll teach him and Syd a lessn for trying to screw over Adel.
Hardly. It's not arrogance if Adelaide supporters keep dismissing our list and we want to defend that.
If Adelaide choose to go down that PSD path (which I doubt) then I would be disappointed if Sydney had done the same in their position. I'd expect the professionalism from a football club to not override common sense with emotions. It's not really much of a point they'd make if Tippett was to eventually join Sydney via the PSD whilst Adelaide had the opportunity to at least gain a first round pick + player (or whatever the deal is.) If he does go down the PSD and doesn't get picked by Sydney, then they still lose, but don't strengthen a current premiership contender. Either way, neither of the options are as beneficial as a pick/picks and a player.
I also don't understand where we are trying to 'screw over' them. No one on this site has any factual evidence what Sydney have offered, and the only thing Sydney have done is spoken to a promising KPF who has stated he wants out of Adelaide and to go home
after fulfilling his contractual obligations. I'd expect any club to continuously better their position and you'd be silly to think other clubs' haven't contacted him prior to his statement he wants to join Sydney.
The implication I have drawn from the statements from the clubs' are that both party are attempting to work towards a fair deal so I don't know where your Sydney are screwing Adelaide line is coming from.
Adelaide supporters have a right to be disappointed with Tippett because if it was Reid for example I'd feel the same way. Nevertheless if he fulfilled his contract and wanted out of Sydney, whether or not it was overtly stated, I would wish him the best despite being disappointed because it's hardly as though he owes anything to the club, or anyone at the cub. At the end of the day his life and lifestyle decisions are his own, and I don't really think anyone has a right to degrade him because of it. I would maintain this for my own player too.
