[1990crow]

Really upset we didnt get Ash Johnson, especially given he was in SA too.

To be fair probably struggles for a game in our 2023 forward line

Don’t need him really? TT, Fog and Welsh in the future.

 

[GROTTO]

Dont disagree with you, its already packed to the rafters now.

Plays best as a deep forward for the Pies, there is a lot to like about him. Great kick too.

 

[Geoffa32]

Rumour thread crouch to stay? really? I guess having a baby on the way it’s hard to uproot the family but clearly he ain’t in nicks plan

I guess no other club want him?

No one wanted him last year.

What will we get for him do you think? 2nd rounder?

Its a real hard one..who knows

Who was that potato that we got from the Blues that we gave up a 2nd rounder for a few years back?

Its time to get that back.

We need the SOS, Footy Classified meme in here, stat!

'If a player is in contract....'

 

[GROTTO]

Menzel

Thanks, forgot his name given the forgettable time with us.

Look at the trade that got done, Blues absolutely again raided GWS and it was talked about in a positive manner.

WHO GETS WHAT?

Carlton: Pick 8, Sam Kerridge, Lachie Plowman, Liam Sumner, Jed Lamb, Andrew Phillips

GWS: Picks 28, 77, 95 and Geelong’s 2016 first-round selection

Adelaide: Troy Menzel

WHO LOSES WHAT?

Carlton: Picks 77, 95, Geelong’s 2016 first-round selection and Troy Menzel

GWS: Pick 8, Lachie Plowman, Liam Sumner, Jed Lamb, Andrew Phillips

Adelaide: Pick 28, Sam Kerridge

AFL trades 2015: Troy Menzel, Sam Kerridge, Lachie Plowman all traded in three-way deal

Blues secure five, lose Menzel to Crows

[Rory Walkerfield]

Thanks mate,

Can you see him as a full time mid in the future or will he always be a pinch hitter?

With fitness he is a full time mid. And an exciting one at that. Unfortunately we’re still talking potential though rather than actual delivery

 

[LeftyLuke]

If we do bring in Hopper what does that mean for Sloane, Schoenberg, Pedlar and Keays?

You would say Laird and Berry are centre square midfield locks.

Assuming we split pick 5 and get Rankine and Hopper with the spoils of it, are people happy with that??

Sloane would be in the forward line if he plays regardless whether we get Hopper or not imo. If we got Hopper it would probably be Soligo that gets shuffled out to wing and Keays may not get a game with a fit forward line of McAdam, Rankine, Rachele. I think our midfield would be Laird, Hopper, Berry unless they played Soligo over Berry in there. Now that I think of it Sloane may not even get back into the team if everyone is fit.

 

[skittlebrew]

Which was confidently predicted here, I believe, should we have taken him.

I assumed he was looking for a trade for further opportunity but nah he's played a fcuk tonne of games.

 

[skittlebrew]

Sholl/McAsey not joining Carlton.

Is McAsey possibly back on the menu?

Edit* not taking the piss or saying you're wrong, I'm just curious given recent articles.

 

[rabidcrow]

Watching a few of the you tube trade rumour vids made by randoms and they all seem to be mentioning Yeo to the crows. These vids are rarely accurate but anyone heard this rumour? He seems a bit cooked to me. 28 yeas of age so not the age group I would have thought they would be targetting.

If you could get his body right could be an astute pick up. Perhaps Burgess influence?
Seems unlikely though

You do realise he played for Adelaide?

 

[rabidcrow]

Which then suggests did we make the right call to use pick 9 on him? Top 10 picks shouldn't be role players

Watching Sanfl highlights recently he will be a mid - of good quality - just needs to get the body up to AFL. Watch out either next year or year after

What?

 

[cm_perfect]

Rankine

 

[chazwazza]

What?

Pretty sure he was on Adelaide’s SANFL list before going to Sturt

 

[Mutineer]

Yep but never played, broke his arm badly in the Old Collegians Grand Final win and was in recovery the whole time he was on our top up list.

’s recent SANFL matches, fuelling speculation the No. 6 draft pick will join the Blues in trade period.
McAsey, 21, is contracted at Adelaide at 2023. But the key defender has failed to play a single AFL game in the past two seasons and it's understood the Crows would facilitate a trade.

The great unknown is whether the McAsey can play. The Sandringham Dragons product was drafted before the likes of Rising Star winner Caleb Serong

(Western Bulldogs) and Sam De Koning (Geelong) in 2019.

But he struggled to get a kick in the Crows‘ reserves this season. McAsey, who stands 198cm and weighs 98kg, averaged only 8.3 disposals and 47 SuperCoach points in 17 SANFL matches this season.

Last year he averaged 11.3 disposals and 62 SuperCoach points in 18 SANFL games without earning an AFL opportunity. All 10 of McAsey‘s AFL games came in 2020, his first season at the Crows.

But a fresh start back home could ignite the junior talent and the Blues appear eager to give him that chance.

The Blues had great success securing Lewis Young

How do they know he was specifically scouting Fischer, could have been any number of our SANFL players
