Really can't see how this will get done guys, Tippett (seems like a douche) probably trying to get GC to up it's price.

Just heard on the local radio that GC is low balling because they expect to pick him up in PSD.

Looks like its out of us and Brisse, and im hoping to hell he goes to Brisbane although you can give you Jessie white?
 
Just a side view of this fiasco if true Josh Kennedy not signed and knowing how much money being offered Tippett , what sort of $ would he be demanding now.
I also think if Kurt was to choose a non Qld club he will regret it and forever tarnish his name ,but not that worries me as already lost any respect for.
But much prefer either Qld team with a player ( non proven probably ) + as highest draft pick can obtain.
LIONS -- Redden or Polec who although not AFL proven yet was a greater talent than Brodie S
SUNS -- Gooringe or another tall which they have plenty . Not sure chase Day too hard as pay too much and not sure has mentality to ever get best of talent out of .
Finally $urt please hurry up and make up your b---y mind you lying money hungry -------

CROWSURFMAN!

Able to seduce Million $ contracts at will and it would seem slight draft picks in return!!!!

FEARED BY ALL!!!

LOVED BY NONE!


Where did you get this picture, I am sure I dated this chick :eek:
 
honestly, I don't know if it because he left, but Tippet to me is becoming more of a ******** as this stretches out.

all of the "it's his future" and "what about the concussion" excuses are out the window, what a selfish piece of shit.

I think it's his Manager as much as anybody, and Kurt isn't strong enough to stand up and make his own decisions.

Said it earlier, it appears almost certain like he was planning to go back to the GC, but his Manager has tabled his contract demands thinking they'd pay him anything he asked, and the GC have baulked at it.
 
Was thinking the same thing. If Sunny, Ivabigun and Supernova are typical of Suns supporters it's given me a much more positive view of the club. Their contributions among our 7,000+ posts (over two threads) has been most welcome.

Just out of interest, did you guys have other AFL clubs before the Suns came in?

Yes, grew up in Victoria but moved to up the East Coast with various stops on the way. Started to support the Suns (at inception) as I wanted to be able to take my kids to the football just as my father had done with me and for us to support 1 team.

The Suns staff and players have been fantastic, Gary even recorded a birthday suprise video for my wife a few months back. I can't say enough about how the club has tried to embrace the community.
 
We have Grundy covered with Shaw and Otten .......need a taller KPD to cover the biguns like Tippett and Danniher that are coming onto the scene

Seriously - he will be groomed as a KPD and we will be looking for options to replace him in the ruck/up forward (Giles/Gorringe/anyone)
 
Kerr said that big and imposing forwards such as Tippett remain the most prized catch in the Gillette AFL Free Agency Period.

"They're a rare commodity and important to the way teams structure their forward lines. Game-plans are built around them," he said.

Hi. Been lurking for a while but first time poster.

Good to see the Brisbane Lions list manager is talking up the value of TURKey in any future trade deals.
I would think that would put Redden on the table in any future deals.

Redden wont come, that is a pipe dream, supposedly good mates with Rockliff and is well entrenched in their side. I doubt Brisbane would even consider parting with him.

Polec is far more likely, from memory he was best mates with Brodie
Smith in their time at WWT and is not yet a regular member of their best 22. Is also probably the exact type of classy, outside mid that we'd be after.

If he does choose Brisbane and I can see them making one last, final ditch play to get him (they probably need him most), I would hope that we could secure Polec and 8, for Tippett, 19 and I'd even throw in our 2nd rounder, for what it's worth. I really don't think Brisbane are too far off challenging again, but to do so they really do need to find a player such as Tippett who can take over from Brown.

Totally agree. Unfortunately I get the feeling that the team most in a position to offer us what we want is no going to be the team of choice for Kurt.

Yeah its either poor player management, or poor human being. I do agree to an extent.

For some reason my gut feel is it's Blucher's doing though.

I agree. I reackon he's led Kurt up the garden path. Turned Kurts honest desire to go home into a highest-bidder-wins situation. I hope there arent too many of our players represented by him.

I know Blucher is from Velocity Sports management team which is Alastair Lynch and Michael Voss' player management company. Pretty sure Vossy is a half partner with Lynch?

I think it is just you and a handfull of others Cap.... I have despised him for 3 months now.
Losing him will be the turning point for our club.. A united change room and money to invest.. The quality player we hopefully receive in compensation is just the bonus.. The most overrated player since Kosi and the Holland brothers

Welcome to BF.

Swans will have something to offer. Too professional to mske a 1m offer and not be ready to seal the deal at the trade table. It's just not as obvious as Brisbane.

I would think that while that would be an ideal stance from a revenge viewpoint, it would be trading suicide from a club viewpoint. We need to know where we stand before trade week starts so we know what moves we can/can't make.

Oh come on Jenny.. Dont rush him... He needs to be able to think, especially after those nasty concussions
 
Just because Brisbane rate him highly, doesn't mean they won't use their position of power to get the best deal for the club, especially if he decides Brisbane. They will know Tippett's leaving regardless, therefore Adelaide would ideally want a deal to be done instead of leaving him to go PSD. Are Adelaide going to get a better deal than pick 8? It's what Brisbane was prepared to offer him this year, and with his concussions, is his value really greater than it was last year? Brisbane got pick 12 for Clark, and he kicked a similar amount of goals in 2011 to Tippett this year, playing a similar number of games. We said no to two of Polec/Redden/pick 8 last year, and I don't see how that's changed this year, except Tippett is now out of contract and has concussion issues.

EDIT: FWIW I still think Tippett will end up at GC, and this is all his manager's work to get GC's offer up. GC know he wants to go there, so are likely offering him the worse deal of all teams,

Poor little 8 year old Kurt wants to go home but the big bully is forcing him to go to Sydney or a highest bidder..
I suppose Blucher was the one that made him leave Adelaide too, because Kurt couldn't make a decision that big all on his lonesome..

Kurt knows what he's doing, he and his manager are doing this together..
