Welcome Welcome to Adelaide: Daniel Curtin - Pick 8

[MrBarry]

Simply a huge win by the club after a pretty weak trade period, love it.

 

[StickerMan]

Has he got a nickname,
Torn, Final, Iron.

Beef

 

[Redleg Crow]

Excellent pick.

 

[Redleg Crow]

 

[Brett Cummings]

I get Jake Lever vibes, game wise - which I'd be pretty happy with if that's his ceiling in this draft.

I don't. He shits all over lever.

 

[Crowbling]

I re watched his selection and he looked perfectly happy to have his name called out by the crows.

 

[Drugs Are Bad Mackay?]

Has he got a nickname,
Torn, Final, Iron.

Barry?

 

[Bearded Clam]

They had no other first round picks this year.. GWS obviously wanted to stay in this years draft

How did our deal trump the eagles future 1st lol.

 

[Bearded Clam]

I wasnt into this deal the last 24-48hrs..

mostly cause I thought we were gonna have to give up the farm to get it done… and for a KPD that just didnt sit well..

but we actually gave up very little to get it done..

so I‘m happy with it.

does he play midfield from R1 next year?.. probably not but lets atleast give him a red hot go with the midfield group over summer!

 

[Burtonsgottago]

Can’t actually believe we pulled this off

About time we had a good plan and some decent luck

He will be playing round 1 just not sure where ? Maybe the wing

Nah, they’ll select Murphy ahead of him

 

[Crowman32]

I remember a few weeks ago on 5aa campo was asked who we should target with our first pick and he said Curtin. He said we need another big bodied midfielder and Curtin would be perfect. At the time I thought there's no way we will get near Curtin and campo is dreaming. He must've had some Intel regarding this.

Nah man.
Genuinely no one at the crows ever dreamt of getting Curtin til a week ago.

If we get Sid next year then the Curtin will match the Drapes

 

[BunjiMC]

Welcome Bontempelli Curtin

 

[Scorpus]

I'm kinda shocked at how little we had to pay to get him.

I know we only moved up our first rounder two spots, and our other first slid back two spots.

But it seems kinda crazy we could grab a talent like Curtin only giving up 10 and a future 2nd (effectively)

Yeah thought we’d have to part with F1 to do it. Absolute steal

The only downside for us I’m guessing is that we would’ve taken Goad, but North swooped first. I reckon we rated Edwards not far behind though

 

[1990crow]

If we get Sid next year then the Curtin will match the Drapes

What about window.
Window Curtin.

Especially when all things considered North should have taken him at 4.

I dont see missing goad and getting edwards as a downside tbh.. we needed a pure mid like edwards over a ruck prospect..

and goad is a crows supporter.. we can hopefully convince him to come home in a few years..

 

[Scorpus]

It looks like we effortlessly waltzed into a top 5 pick

 

[Viva la Mattner]

I’d o

If we get Sid next year then the Curtin will match the Drapes

If we can trade up for Draper, get Welsh as FS and recruit Petty that’s huge
Add in potential FA of Hayward, McCluggage (I’d throw $$ at him) it’s a chance to finish the rebuild

 

[Redleg Crow]

And given we got Edwards, gave up a second rounder only really

 

[FR0GGY]

Window Curtin.

Just call him Rod

 

[StonesThrow]

Has to be asked why he went as low as he did for someone with his skill set. He ticks pretty much every single box for a footballer except being from another state. Did we take a huge punt on something when others were more risk averse?

I like that we have taken a risk if so, but I hope we've done our diligence given our recent history.

Oh yeah I don’t see it as one, I’m saying the club might’ve, seeing how much noise there was about potentially picking up Goad at 14 before North’s picks

Reckon overall we balanced our draft haul nicely
