Prediction 2017 Free Agency & Trading - go to the Gibbs thread if you wish to discuss Gibbs!!!

Think it's funny because we are dealing with GC in regards to CC

Lyons and a 2nd rounder

 

[Mego Red]

Thats incorrect.

Its used on and off. Its not widely used by most teams because in order to tag you have to basically sacrifice one of your own players to shut down another. Even now most teams do not tag. The successful clubs do not use it. They back their own players in to win it for them and beat their opponent.

Going in with a negative mindset, such as tagging, does not win you flags imo.

Hawks, Cats, Swans have never used it.

Look, I'm not going to worry about going back and forth on this. Almost no one else has tagged in the last few years. That's because teams don't run man-on-man defense. They run team defensive structures and you can't just lose one piece of that and have it work.

Lyons and a 2nd rounder

Christ almighty, we don't need Lyons. If we had Lyons we probably wouldn't have played Greenwood and I know which one of those two i want on the field

It was a joke...

Lyons and a 2nd rounder was classic bigfooty talk when we wanted to trade in someone twice his value.

So what has his club and his players been doing about Gibbs the past year and a half? Bit of the pot calling the kettle black IMO.

Notice how it never became public knowledge until trade week when Bryce requested a move ??

Your coach should concern himself with things closer to home

But we didn't know about Gibbs until a couple of days before trade week

Good. So sick of our usual "We'll do our best to work with the club of player's choice to do the best thing by everyone."

 

[Chief Crow]

Well I guess if Brisbane fans think they will get him for market value or unders, may need to rethink as pissing off our club isn't wise for a player under contract. We may just dig our heels in, especially if they use a threat like the McCarthy situation as rumoured.

This is the worst part of all that. There is absolutely no chance that Charlie would do a McCarthy and go home to his family and sit out a year. And we would know that better than Brisbane would.

I am still massively confident we keep CC long term and we also keep Lever and Gov, at least for another 2 years.

This is what I'll say and leave it at

Cameron will be playing at the crows next year "FACT"

I am so certain on this that If I am wrong I'll run naked with a port scarf around my neck through the middle of Adelaide oval next showdown

 

[Huntercrow]

You could've tried to find one of Rocky looking happy, but playing for that mob, there probably wouldn't be too many of those.

I think I scanned through about 500 pics and this was the happy one

Who to believe

 

[ad victoriam]

If we lose CC I have the Perfect trade,
Port 2017 1st round which is own by Brisbane,
We then select a top Kid who plays for 10 years allowing us to compare him to Ports Todd Marshall.

Just in regards to this now potential shitstorm between our clubs, this is what was actually said:

Caroline Wilson. "There is a lot of talk that Charlie Cameron wants to go home and move back to Brisbane. He is contracted but I think Adelaide struggled last time to keep him there. Would you...would you look at a trade for Charlie Cameron?"

Chris Fagan: "We're certainly interested in getting players to our club that can help us progress up the ladder and his age profile and talent would certainly something we'd be interested in. I’ll leave all that to David Noble and Dom Ambrogio, but from a coaching perspective if Charlie Cameron were to be available and interested in coming to Brisbane, we'd love to have him as part of our team."

IMO we're just seizing the opportunity to take a "tough" stance because you're Brisbane not Collingwood et al

Last time we took a stance like this (Aish) Collingwood threatened us with Restraint of Trade bullshit. Their whole club is a joke of old.

Good sign

Hmm

Trade Whisperer big "bombshell". Blues offering Tom Lynch (Gold Coast one) the Captaincy and $2 million a year.

Burn whisperer

Give up, what have they been doing?

I don't see them making any public comments about trying to get Gibbs

Do you?

 

[Huntercrow]

Lyons?

 

[Sanders]

Are you sure about that? This happened less than 6 weeks ago.

I don't remember Jacobs being a club official though, when was he appointed?

All I see is a guy engaging in a bit of banter about his mate.

Surely that's nothing like what you said.

Looks just as bad as reported

The last sentence is a doozy

I think the problem is that there are 2 rounds of football left and at least 1 of the clubs will be playing finals ..
