I think Rowey and Cornesy will spend 90 minutes on Pick 10 (8) from Brisbane for Tippett.

The Tippett saga isn't over just yet.

 

[BACCS]

richmond confirming they've offered second rounder for maric, compo and higher out of the question. no shock there

Have a feeling it will be the last deal that goes down.

 

[Elite Crow]

I thought he was a half forward - took a couple of good grabs and kicked a goal in the Legs v Dogs Qualifying Final. Possibly a Gunston replacement but smaller and maybe not as mobile. Looks like quality though.

Would like to have Pfeiffer also

Can play both

I think Rowey and Cornesy will spend 90 minutes on Pick 10 (8) from Brisbane for Tippett.

And 60 minutes on pick 24 for Ebert, "a steal".

 

[Freddy Bassett]

You were sooking mate, prematurely, like a lot of our supporters are. It is just pissing me off that our supporters are complaining about a deal which isn't even completed yet.

No complaining here mate. I am red raw

 

[Mad Fan of AFL]

Cambell's Chunky..if we get say 37 from richmond for Maric, why would you want to give them our pick 46 as well? =Ricmoind equals big winners there. No need to give up pick 46 at all.

yep, by the sound of the richmond guy (cant remember his name), made it look like adelaide were prefering to get the gunston/crouch stuff out of the way first. maybe if we can get a decent pick for armstrong too we could throw that in with maric (basically what chunky suggested) to get the compo. they seemed to be real understanding too of our situation so that's nice of them.

 

[King Elvis]

Maric for the compo is a bit rich; if we throw our second in there, then it should be alright.

Alternatively, what about;

#24 & Maric to Richmond.
#36 & Bock Pick to Crows.

Weakens our position in this draft a bit, but allows us to load up hard for next year...

I'd say Maric/Second will get it done though.

 

[PyroCrow]

When Rendell hears that we're getting Crouch...

No, you chose deliberately to only read half of what I said.

And you're the one who is pissed off. I'm cool.

I know things can improve from the Gunston deal. I don't know how many times I need to clarify this fact, but when you deliberately choose to ignore the nuance in my posts I suppose I'm wasting my time. But when you continually choose to mischaracterize and insult me, I take exception.

I'm just saying Adelaide got ****ed on the Gunston deal, which is a finished deal and a nearly universally accepted fact. Do you want to answer the question, or do you want to create another strawman, or continue to put me in with the ferals to fit your inconvenient argument?

 

[SydCrow]

What does a Dyson and Hooker have in common?

LOL I hear you

what does Dyson and a hooker have in common?

 

[TheDoctor11]

Silvagni just all but confirmed the Crouch deal on TWR, says 'very close' to completion.

I'm just heading home now......

 

[Hank93]

Steven Silvagni confirms Adelaide and GWS are very close securing the Crouch Pick 14/Pick 10, Compo pick deal.

No I mean to secure the compo pick instead of pick 37.

 

[Magma]

i assume the only thing holding up the crouch deal is luke brown then.

 

[Campbell's Chunky]

No I mean to secure the compo pick instead of pick 37.

Does anyone know..with our MD pick and assume we pick up Brad Crouch, is he listed on our list next year (take up a spot) or does he only get put on the list this time next year...

 

[Elite Crow]

Steven Silvagni confirms Adelaide and GWS are very close securing the Crouch Pick 14/Pick 10, Compo pick deal.

He didnt give up any details

 

[Mad Fan of AFL]

My apologies Campbells. Thats how i read it

 

[MightyTiger]

Steven Silvagni confirms Adelaide and GWS are very close securing the Crouch Pick 14/Pick 10, Compo pick deal.

The details weren't actually discussed, only said the deal is close to being finalised and should be completed tomorrow.

Good get for Adelaide and hope they don't over pay like I had been discussing previously.

 

[neddy36]

The player signs a 3 year deal. So I assume he will take a place on the roster.

If the player doesn't sign a contract, the club own his rights for 23 months.

 

[WALL-e]

He's external to the main list.

 

[Hank93]

He didnt give up any details

No official details, but is very clear that Brad Crouch will be Adelaide FC player in 2013.

 

[Deaneus!]

Also, what stops up playing Crouch next year if we see fit? I know there's a minimum draft age, but I don't know about a minimum playing age?

 

[jo172]

He's external to the main list.

So it's sort of like the NSW scholarship program?

You're not on our list but you're ours?
