I am a Melbourne supporter & it is going to many years before we are ready to challenge for finals and then hopefully a premiership.
Bailey said that he wouldn't give up our first three draft picks that we have but I'm sure he would be open to the idea of trading picks 17 & 19 or one of them along with a player to boost ourselves higher into the first round.
For example:
We trade pick 17 & Green or Bruce to either Brisbane, North or Adel.
in return
We gain pick 7(Bris), 9 (North) or 10 (Adel) along with a third round selection being 41(Bris), 43(North) or 44 (Adel).
We get an earlier 1st round pick along with a mid range 3rd round pick, to go with our priority of getting young talent
They gain a late 1st round pick, a very good versatile established player in their quest for premiership glory who has at least 3 - 4 years left in them.
Any thoughts??

Well I threw it up for discussion. In the AFL Draft & Trading Forum,there is an Adelaide supporter who would trade Green for pick 10 in a straight swap.
I thought it was fair trade that is why I threw it up. You don't think it is.
I'll wait to see what other crows supporters think
Jericho for Didak?
Punchy Melb - no way.
Green for our second round pick; MAYBE; but even then, probably not.
maybe Didak, maybe Varcoe, maybe Cleve Hughes.... cant think of anyone else who has really cuaght my attention in previous threads/discussions.
Punchy,
Forget it son, we dont want washed up has beens mate. (bit harsh, but his best is behind him)
hshaw39,
The only Rusling at AAMI will be the rusling of the trees in the wind. He's never on the park mate. He has very, very little trade value ATM. We certainly wouldnt entertain the thought of trading Knights for him.

Don't want Cleve Hughes. Soft on the field and a derro off it. Jericho >>> Cleve Hughes.
Griffen would be my player of choice as he is better than anyone we have in the midfield. Cooney goes missing in the big games. Butler or Hurn could be worth a shot but are not worth giving up 1st round draft picks.
As far as forwards go, Hawthorn have a glut of them. Boyle is not as good as Stevens so don't want him. Roughhead, Thorp or Dowler would be great but we'd have to give up the world for Thorp or Roughead in particular. Dowler could be worth a shot though. I would definitely trade Rutten if it meant getting Roughead though.

Griffen is a gun but who would they want? They probably lack another key defender that stays on the park.
Roughead for Rutten...where do we sign!! But they would never do that. They could also do with a little more coverage in the key defender area.
Would Rutten and pick 10 get either of these trades over the line?
Probably not.
Top level trades are very rare, unless a player is desperate to leave a club.
Come trade week, if we can land 1 or 2 'mid-level' trades that add value to the list (ie Moran) then I'll be content with that.

why do we want to all of a sudden trade rutten after one bad year? isn't he one of the best full backs? was he not All Australian? Is he not one of our most solid players?
I can't understand why we would want to get rid of him. Yes roughhead is good but we should look at other options if any.

Of course he has value for all the reasons you mention.
Roughead is better than good! He has kicked a swag of goals this year (yes he is on the 2nd best defender but he also gets less supply due to Franklin).
I would easily give Rutten and pick 10 for Roughead...in a heartbeat.
that supporter was probably me. I still stand by my decision. Green likes to play like the lose man in the backline or something like what mcleod does which would be good because mcleod does not have much left in him. green is also capable of going into the midfield and the forward line. he has kicked a few bages of 2 goals and 3 this year which would be good because adelaides midfeilders do not kick enough goals. he is also a strong mark.
I would do that trade in a heart beat. I don't think the Crows coaching staff would though. That is why I think this is alot fairer:
Crows Gain: Brad Green & Pick 17
Dees Gain: Picks 10 & 44
I think that is alot fairer to both clubs than a straight swap of Green for Pick 10. You seem to be the only one interested though

why on earth would we want green we don't ****ing want him! nor do we need him we will be keeping pick 10 so you can just forget about it!
Calm down mate! I haven't said I was going to take your first born child!
All I have suggested is a trade, that so far the majority of crows supporters don't want but at least one crows supprter does want.
This is a forum that is open to suggesting trades isn't it???
You don't like it but someone else does. What trades would you like that could be seen as fair & reasonable?
I would trade our first pick for Hurn
