These comments by Noble were a little odd??

“Having worked with Kurt, I know he has at times struggled with his ability to make decisions and work his way through certain situations. So, I have to take him on face value (that he only made his decision last weekend). There were some weeks where he’s been around and we’ve thought, ‘Yes, he’s definitely going to stay’ and then other weeks where you think, ‘crikey, he’s going to go’ and that’s being brutally honest.”


Makes Kurt sound a bit Rainman.

As I said earlier, half the boys thought he was staying, and while my two sources didn't think he'd stay, both were adamant he hadn't made his mind up. Perhaps he's just a little bit simple? And I don't mean that nastily (or maybe I do o_O ) rather he perhaps processes things quite differently?

GC are going to give us sweet FA when they know they can get him for nothing in the PS draft. Do you think they would be playing the same games if we were Collingwood.

So yet again we will be known as trade weeks doormat. FFS this is beyond a f*cking joke. Every October the other clubs get to take in turns at playing the game "Lets screw Adelaide"..

GOLD Coast is determined to sign want-away Adelaide forward Kurt Tippett, but won't entertain giving up highly-rated South Australian Suns Sam Day or Daniel Gorringe to get a deal done.

He said that the Suns are "very interested" in securing the 202cm forward, but would not deviate from their policy of protecting the young talent on their fledgling list.

"[Sam and Daniel] are both contracted … for next year - Sam even beyond that - so as far as we're concerned they're part of our club for that period of time.

"We've always spoken about not wanting to compromise the growth of our young list. We want to make sure that we keep our young players together for as long as we can and we don't want to compromise that.

"We'll look at options to make sure that we get a good player like Kurt into the side, but not to the detriment of breaking up our young talent."

Won't deviate from protecting the young talent? Cool just send over Campbell Brown, fair trade..
 
I hope the club has directly targeted one or two of the GC boys and make it known to them that we want them to come home. Throw a bucket load of money at them and put the pressure on them to be included in the trade.

It's time for an outright sales pitch to go ahead and get on the front foot. Be proactive, not reactive.

Have you not been reading this thread? They can't get him for nothing. If he drops to the psd, we can do a deal with GWS. Vader has posted the various rulings on all this.

Makes sense. Until we get people with a spine in our front office, why shouldn't they sh*t all over us. I've had a gutfull of the Trigg and co. policy of turn the other cheek and lets not rock the boat. Time to rearrange the front office get rid of these guys.

Did Trigg kill your cat or something? This hatred you have for him is ridiculous.

Don't need to deal. GWS can take anyone this year. This also most likely means no compo for us but yeah, PSD really isn't an option.

So what the hell are they gonna give us? If they aren't available, pick 2 becomes a serious option. No way the Caddy pick will be enough

So glad the PSD isn't an option for them now
Click to expand...
There's really no hope of pick 2.. That's for elite young talent..
Tippett's age for a start makes it a waste for them..
Unless we give them something else of value..

This is all looking like (dare I say it) an AFGM stated mid to late 1st round draft pick :eek: :eek: :D

And I thought Stephen Rowe was the most gullible person I've heard today. Like, this is really going to happen. We will meekly accept a pick of about 22 or lower and give Kurt an easy path to his desired destination. The guys running this club have the balls of a Eunuch.

There goes that threat. No way GWS would pass on him

Why is everyone so sure they'd take him over Whitfield etc? I hope you're right though.

But how much under? What if we get offered something that is 93% about right?? Or 82%?

What's your imaginary line where 0% > x% ?
 
So basically the Suns are saying 'we want Tippett bit won't give up anything of value to get him'. Bunch of w***ers. As usual we'll get nothing decent
