[Jeffcrowe]

Does it? That just seems like due dilligence with any highly rated SA talent in the hopes of getting a trade request down the line.

Definitely part of it

But just like bidding on academy kids …. If you’re also offering up a future 1st round likely top 10 pick in a strong draft you need to be prepared that it might come off

So there is also more to it

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Small frame, not quick and probably not considered very damaging would be my guess.

Good sanfl player?

Wouldn’t surprise me if he ends up getting taken down the line

Mid season draft option will be interesting

Re Kobe Ryan

 

[Mutineer]

Does it? That just seems like due dilligence with any highly rated SA talent in the hopes of getting a trade request down the line.

Much more than just due diligence we truly rate Mattaes highly, club's in the bottom half of the ladder don't put future 1sts and 2nds on the table unless they think they have a chance at the player..

You are correct that the genuine interest we showed in trying to get a deal done so he could remain in Adelaide will not have been missed by Mattaes, his family and management mob headed up by Ned Costello for future reference.

 

[Mostyn]

You believe what you want to believe, I also heard we had very big interest in Mattaes early on and hoped we could facilitate a deal but Izak was always our number one priority. As for those that claimed we didn't rate him and we had red flags on him....brahahahaha.

As it turned out Essendon were very very unlikely to accept the deal because they had settled on taking one of either Tsatas or Phillipou.

You have your source who said we were willing to give up a future first and a pick 20; Twomey has his source that said we were interested in Phillipou if it was a future first; Volbeat has his source that said we had red flags; and I know someone who heard directly that we had concerns.

Maybe it's all true and maybe none is.

I do know we put our pick 5 on the table the first day of trade week. I guess that means whatever people think it means?

You were wrong just admit it...!

TAFKATMS word is good enough for me and backs up everything I'd heard..

You can go on believing whatever you want, you said we had no interest which has been well and truly blown out of the water.

Was posted on afl.com on 23 Aug that Izak asked for a trade to Crows and Trade week started 4 Oct - just sayin' ...

 

[Sanders]

Also backs up the info mutineer received re the crows rating Phillipou and the fact they met with him multiple times in last 2-3 weeks pre draft (yes they rated Rankine priority )

Haha it certainly does not!

 

[Sanders]

TAFKATMS said one of our 2nds was also on the table and I'm taking his word for it every day of the week and twice on Sundays. I remember several posters at certain stages were calling it bullshit we were even interested in facilitating a deal to get Mattaes. Red flags my ass.

That makes it clear we weren’t right in the mix, and Melbourne was not dangling 3 firsts, and we weren’t serious players at all

That article blows you out of the water. Delusional to think it supports all your fantastical spam

Splinters you’re delusional

 

[Jeffcrowe]

Haha it certainly does not!

Come on hotshot

You’re the one that was saying how good next years draft is and how clubs were fighting to get in it - all of which is true to some degree

But how do you explain us trying to get out of our potential top 6 pick in next years draft for a pick as low as 10 this year to grab Phillipou ?

You won’t answer so I’m wasting my time

If you want to refute what Twomey is saying then tell us the story according to you and some evidence to back it up

Stop being such a fence sitter splinters , give us an argument and back it up big boy

 

[Jeffcrowe]

[Danger Zone]

Amazing that MetricSystem and Volbeat were the actual ones posting rumours from sources, but it's you porkchops still on here arguing about it. Makes you wonder why more people don't post what they hear.

Exactly what I’m doing , backing up Metric systems info which was spot on from start to finish

I also heard the same story re Phillipou from one of the analytics guys pre the draft and shared it privately with at least 3 posters … lined up exactly with what metric system was saying

Yep as usual TMS is da man!

 

[TAFKATMS]

I must have read the wrong article. I said Adelaide had offered a F1 and (NM) F2 to Essendon for their pick 4.

Where in the article is that refuted aside from mentioning that we offered a F1?

Exactly one week before the draft Justin Reid called Dodoro and offered the F1 and NM F2 for pick 4. Dodoro said it was not enough. I'm not sure we had too many options up our sleeve after that.

 

[TAFKATMS]

I think I've provided enough info over the years to suggest that I do have some sources but some posters still feel the need to be snide, dismissive and condescending. The usual suspects.

If you don't believe it, fine. Move on. I'm passing on information I've been given that's come directly from sources at the club about what is going on behind the scenes.

 

[Mostyn]

Well, we know from what Twomey said that what you and Metric System were saying is wrong.

We only offered a first, nothing more, and even then we don't know if we wanted anything else back. We DO know we weren't offering any more ourselves.

Just admit that you and Metric were wrong and got over excited.

You should call Twomey and tell him he's wrong.

Poor old Kristof now doubling down to look even sillier...fine by me.

We offered a first and a second. If Volbeat was here he'd confirm that, but he's not. Wonder why??

Almost ready to block you, like talking to a child.

Cal is not wrong, just didn't include all the info.

 

[StonesThrow]

We have to get to the bottom of this

I've never meant to be disrespectful to you.

I know that Volbeat's source was sitting in the draft room that night, and I've felt all along our actions made it clear that we weren't THAT desperate to get Phillipou, such as our eagerness to put pick 5 on the table. That's why I always felt there was some truth in us having reservations about Mattaes.

Maybe that changed, or maybe we felt a future pick was still worth it, if that made it happen.

I guess it's impossible to know - the only actual facts we have is that we got Rankine and didn't get Phillipou.
