[Kane McGoodwin]

Basically the get the Dons 1st, we would need to offer future 1st and a 2nd?

At least... & not worth it imo.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

And then Bombers take him at 4

So no change... he is still going to the Bombers.

 

[pjcrows]

If we had Pick 6 and our eyes were absolutely set on a specific tall mid, what would we be asking in return if someone else wanted him? Probably two 1sts. That's what we'd need to offload for a crack at Phillipou.

 

[pjcrows]

I think Rachele can turn in to a Sidebottom type.

Rankine I honestly don't see as a midfielder. Will be a jet in the foward half though.

Afraid so and then it would depend how locked into the same player the club with the required pick was.

 

[Panther Blood]

Interesting theory...

It's the air down here mate. It's cleaner. We also have trees, wildlife, rivers, ocean etc ....

Our brains aren't polluted, nuffies think we're strange but we are the clear headed ones lol.

And yet you are still a supporter

 

[Panther Blood]

And yet you are still a supporter

Absolutely.

I will NEVER give up. Ever.

Souths and Adelaide are my 3rd and 4th children.

Souths will be first and foremost before Adelaide always. I miss the days of top grade SANFL. When football WAS football.

I miss Panther Park. Was grassroots at its best. It get blowy out at Noarlunga.

I was a runner during Souths last "Premiership" ... the 1991 Foundation Cup. Many beer tickets were handed to me by the boys. John Reid is a bloody good bloke, love him.

I used to be a Woodville man until they decided to merge with absolute filth. Ditched them like a hot spud. I was at the game when they abused Robbie Muir until he cracked. That incident was not Robbie's fault.

 

[crows dude]

So why did Suns never play Rankine in the middle then?

Cause they were idiots

 

[Tigerlaird]

I'm all for South Adelaide to become the 3rd SA AFL team.

Why not Norwood? Because out of all the SANFL clubs, we have the largest territory, the largest population and the most unique mascot. There has never been a Panther team in the WAFL or VFL.

Once we find an investor to back us, we should make a proper AFL bid in the next 15 years.

It's ok mate, I've the winning ticket for lotto this week, I'll make it happen ...

Then I'll do the "pigs arse" Elliot and hand out brown paper bags and stack the Club, if I've gotta buy one I'll * do it.

has heard Adelaide are trying to get back into the pointy end of the 2022 draft just like TAFKATMS has said....obviously that player is Phillipou. They're trying.

The mighty blue and white forever mate. Let each and everyone one here sing!

 

[Crowked]

Unfortunately neither or both picks together would get us near our No.1 target..

Number 2 target absolutely would be in the ball park but 14 might be a bit excessive.

We always seem to get the number twos

 

[Panther Blood]

The mighty blue and white forever mate. Let each and everyone one here sing!

Yep, * yeah mate.

Looking forward to next season. Always do.

We'll keep in touch with each other about OUR Club and the goings on. Hopefully we can catch up at a game or 2.

No worries mate, I'll fly down to Adelaide to see a few games with my old man. As a proud Kingstonian we'll be fighting for the right to return the flag to South Adelaide yet again.

 

[Sanders]

We don't really know who target number 2 is though, it could be someone we're not thinking of currently

It’s Barnett

Not a very compelling argument, but hey good luck, try get a few premierships in the SANFL then make a bid

 

[Eagleboy2011]

I think Rachele can turn in to a Sidebottom type.

Rankine I honestly don't see as a midfielder. Will be a jet in the foward half though.

I'm hoping a Toby Green or a Shai Bolton type.

 

[Sanders]

Which they did not want...

Here's the reason...

Five GC SUNS Academy stars named in NAB AFL Academy Squads

Five up-and-coming SUNS Academy stars have been selected to join the NAB AFL and AFLW Academy squads for 2023.

They didn’t want to lose him either. Sometimes you don’t always get what you want

There you go Mark Bickley has heard Adelaide are trying to get back into the pointy end of the 2022 draft just like TAFKATMS has said....obviously that player is Phillipou. They're trying.

INTERVIEW: Mark Bickley - 25 November 2022 - The FIVEAA Sports Show

omny.fm

Here's my take .....if this were a reality, the Club wouldn't tell Bickley ......if it's propaganda spreading to woo Phillipou back to the Crows, Bickley is a perfect vehicle

 

[Sanders]

If pick 5 was overs for Rankine, how was pick 7 to NOT have Bowes?

Maybe we should take more notice of what the Crows have actually DONE, which is quickly put pick 5 on the table for Rankine, and greedily grab NMs F2 for pick 23? We may not be right, but I don't know how much clearer the Crows could have made it. They don't rate this draft.

I mean this is so obvious even the great disliker should be grasping it.

What would our actions look like, and how would they differ if our views were otherwise

That said, it is also possible that having seen the league make a mass migration out of the draft that we might think the overcorrection has gone too far and there might be value now that wasn’t there before

 

[Sanders]

There were 800,000 reasons for that...

Not really. Losing Rankine freed up plenty of space

 

[Sanders]

Norwood were the first SA club in the AFL, they just rebadged the license

 

[WaynesWorld19]

The draft, while important, is no longer shaping the destinies of teams, in terms of winning games and finals, in the way that it did, or as intended when it was introduced, alongside the salary cap, in 1986. It is important, but less influential than a decade ago.

“The draft is almost irrelevant to the top four or so clubs,” says Gold Coast chief executive and ex-Hawthorn and AFL football boss Mark Evans. He notes that the draft has been weakened, as an equalisation measure, “given the increase in player movement and players wanting to play at clubs in premiership contention”.

Senior club figures and list managers note that players these days are more willing to leave, as Horne-Francis and Henry did; that the best players pick the good teams higher on the ladder (see Tom Lynch and Jeremy Cameron

), that they nearly always get their wish; and the club that loses the player usually cops whatever “collateral” is available.

Players have always largely been able to get to their preferred club. “But they’re doing it more and they’re doing it sooner,” says Wayne Campbell, the ex-Tiger great, current Suns and former GWS head of football.

This leads to another important shift that has undermined the draft’s mission of comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable: That the better teams can pay players less than the weaker ones.

Lynch and Cameron accepted pay cuts to cross from expansion teams to Richmond and Geelong. Lynch accepted $400,000 a season less at Richmond than he might have received at North. At expansion teams, first-round picks who’ve done squat are handed $400,000-plus in their third year.

Why the AFL draft isn’t working

The draft, while still important, is no longer shaping the destinies of teams the way it once did.
