Can Adelaide just tell North to get stuffed, and have Carey nominate for the pre-season draft where they can get him for free, or is it more complicated than that??

Then Adelaide have a problem in that they have a chance of losing out on Carey that way.
Carey will lose out because he can't dictate which club he has to go for in the pre-season draft if he puts his name in the hate. Basically he'd be compromising the draft & should be disqualified.
You can bend the rules, but you can't bend them all the way.

True. But why would a club want to draft him, knowing that he wants to go to the Crows?

It better work out. I want sufficient compensation for him, and draft picks and perhaps some younguns will do nicely.

Well a recent bigfooty thread says the Carey deal is done. Well are you pleased at how it went mate in terms of who you got and had to give up?

Hmmm...
I think you got less than you wanted.
We gave away more than I would have liked.

In all seriousness, Adelaide gave up what it needed to buy the chance at a flag. If Carey plays good footy again, we have a fair chance at a flag. A flag would more than justify the means.
All the best with your draft picks. I hope your lot does well with them and the future is bright. You club went through a lot this year, more than mosts worst nightmare. All the best.

Compensation??????? does that mean the kangas would have welcomed him back next year????
I don't think so.
An interesting sideline:-
IF the Crows had traded Johnson to Carlton for pick 1 instead of Richmond for pick 4, then wouldn't they have had North by the balls in terms of negotiating a deal for Carey?
It is only a matter of time before this situation arises.
