As far as rucks go, that's about as good as you can possibly get.

You can just about say the same for sauce. All Im saying is that Goldstein didnt finish he year as he started it. He's carried the brunt of the ruck for north, 28 now... I wouldnt give up 12 unless he was the missing piece.

 

[GROTTO]

I'm sure the 'its happening gif' is poised and ready to go.....

Just in case, we have locked and loaded another gif just in case.

Gibbs trade - likely to be a 3 way trade with GWS

I have always been open to a 3 way.

 

[earlsta]

Gibbs trade - likely to be a 3 way trade with GWS

Adel Pick 13 > GWS
Carlton Gibbs > Adelaide
GWS > Pickett & Marchbank to Carlton

 

[Jedistar]

What SOS is attempting is laughable

 

[Maddogmetro]

Adel Pick 13 > GWS
Carlton Gibbs > Adelaide
GWS > Pickett & Marchbank to Carlton

GWS will not give up Pickett & Marchbank for pick 13.

 

[ams4crows]

So we are giving up more than 13

Or we're getting a later pick back from GWS

 

[FR0GGY]

Kane being a champ on an trade radio

 

[GROTTO]

Adel Pick 13 > GWS
Carlton Gibbs > Adelaide
GWS > Pickett & Marchbank to Carlton

Thats basically what the Blues need to consider.

Is Gibbs equal to Pickett and Marchbank and keeping pick 5? The answer is yes, all day, every day.

The deal will get done, Gibbs is coming home.

He could possibly be on 300k per year at the Crows if Rezagun was correct about Gibb's contract being front loaded massively over the last two years, haha. Bargain.

SOS now needs a way to save face and avoiding a direct trade with us for 13 and involving GWS does that.

Even the New Yorker is getting in on the act

Maybe we need to offer Carlton a hippopotamus

Our best bet is doing a deal with Port to get Wines involved.

Silly SOSage

also need two third rounders and a medical with Carthage

Would Pies consider Otten?

Dont I just peed my pants a little hearing that.

Hartless is on $600k, stays with them and stuffs up their salary cap. We get Gibbs for $300k thats enough to make the Alberton thugs angry. If we could only lose 400kay, we could actually end up with Salary cap surplus from trade week. (ignoring the other delistings)

In: Gibbs $300k
Out: Mackay $400k

We get a superior player and we save $100k.

 

[Red mist]

Gibbs contract would be renegotiated with another year maybe added on.

 

[GROTTO]

Gibbs contract would be renegotiated with another year maybe added on.

That would be foolish to do that, if his reasons to come home are genuinely personal we hold leverage in that regard too.

I would let the last 3 years of his contract on possibly $300k play out first. He will be around 31 when his current contract expires.

 

[MRB37]

Would Pies consider Otten?

Or Kelly given the Pies connections.

 

[BunjiMC]

Maybe Carlton want a player from us (and we pay some of their salary) as compensation for the Gibbs front ended contract.....give up 400Kay, 13 and pay 200k of his salary in exchange for Gibbs at 300k a year??

 

[NikkiNoo]

Care to share?

When someone is selling a nice car for pennies you should ask more questions, not mutter bargain.

There are probably numerous factors at play.

Giants gave him an extension, he is contracted for 2017 with a salary of around $300k (which I assume we are going to carry) and he isn't going to play in 2017. That frees up the list spot and some cap space.

Players with serious injuries that require a lot of rehabilitation also take up a lot of time and resources to manage that a fit and healthy player wouldn't.

Giants don't have a shortage of talent coming in, at present, they could realistically have asked a lot more for Ahern but they likely wouldn't have used the pick they got on anything other than academy fodder and they will likely have more than enough points once they clear out a few more players.

Ahern wanted to return to Melbourne.

Giants probably don't see our club as an immediate threat for their current side, they would probably rather trade him cheaper to us than for him to end up a club that might be in competition with them over the next few years.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

If the Gibbs trade isn't close to being done by this afternoon, we should offer Brisbane our 2017 2nd rounder and Mackay for Rockliff. We get Rockliff for cheap and remove Mackay's salary from the cap, Noble gets rid of a troublemaker and bring in a senior player to set professional standards.

Trading next years pick means SOS can't ask for next years first, so unless he want to trade pick 5 for Marbank he'll have to settle for pick 13.

True.

That reminds me of #geelonglogic we cant hand over fair value for Danger ie two first round draft picks because we already gave a future one for another player.

Interestingly, the Cats not giving us a first rounder this year for Danger may have saved us having to part for two first rounders for Gibbs. Lets be honest, #sillysosage would have been asking for this right off the bat if it was available.

Or Kelly given the Pies connections.

Might be worth a chat seeing as most of their defenders have left
