Rumour 2023 Rumours and Speculation (Rumours total 33!, 1 BIG FISH ALERT last October 4th) (7 confirmed! 11 Busted!)

[Kane McGoodwin]

TT and Fog would have to agree to be traded.

and Fog wont… There’s always been strong rumours that Fog would never leave SA to play footy and TT grew up a massive crows supporter and never wanted to play for anyone else. He said so himself when we picked him.

Both loyal locals... won't be going anywhere!

We have so many picks...

 

[1990crow]

Today has been so much fun, I'm 95% certain tomorrow normal service will resume and either a massive scandal will break for us, or Oliver won't be traded by Melbourne.

05.10.23. Andrew Dillon announces Victorians hate South Australians and have made the executive decision to relegate the Crows back to the SANFL and bring in the Beaufort Crows with Matt and Brad Crouch to be their first signings.

NTRabbit has been sent a membership request form.

 

[WAG]

Justin Reid is salivating right now!

Reid and co. in the coming weeks...

 

[GROTTO]

Crashing Jibroni funeral?

 

[Crow till I die]

Possibly but Tim Lamb (Dees List Manager) or someone will need to lose their job unless he is traded for a mint factory. Milera is a good player but unless were getting Pick 1 or someone like Harry Mckay this is a waste.

I imagine Swans, Suns, Crows and Bombers will come knocking once a decision has been made.

Yeah..maybe though the suite of picks we give help you get pick 1 and therefore Reid and you get milera and mcadam as well?...its not a bad outcome?

 

[ams4crows]

Not true!!


Once it got reeled in 12 months late, and cost twice as much as expected, and then only had one good year left in it...

Very true.

Can't count Dawson because he wasn't a league wide superstar until he played for us

Rankine was a great fish but not the big fish Vic will be jealous that we landed

 

[Mutineer]

Imho

High draft picks are always overrated...ie imho... everyone is overrating Reid. 3 first rounders is crazy talk. If you pick correctly... 3 great calls on draft night could build a Dynasty

Nobody is overrating Harley Reid. The general consensus was Harley Reid would have been a real chance at going pick 1 last year if he was eligible.

 

[jenny61_99]

I think most are wary as we don’t usually attempt this.

I agree with you this makes us better but the audacity of it screams everything other than what we have known the Crows to be recently.

Didn’t we offer three firsts for JHF?

 

[1990crow]

Nobody is overrating Harley Reid other than you. The general consensus was Harley Reid would have been a real chance at going pick 1 last year if he was eligible.

Seems like he wants to stay in Victoria and West Coast will trade pick 1 due to that risk.

 

[Jibroni]

Of course its going to end in tears, but trade period is all about the journey, rather then the destination.

The other irony Grotto is McAdam wants to leave Adelaide because of mismanagement by Burgess and Oliver wants to join Adelaide because he loves the guy (and mismanagement by Melbourne) .

 

[FR0GGY]

Nothing against you guys but this is like watching a car crash in real time.

We’ve been there with danger, didn’t drag through trade week though.

 

[Mutineer]

Yeah..maybe though the suite of picks we give help you get pick 1 and therefore Reid and you get milera and mcadam as well?...its not a bad outcome?

Milera would have to be one of the least chances to want to move himself and his young family interstate IMO.

 

[hippyhippy]

The other irony Grotto is McAdam wants to leave Adelaide because of mismanagement by Burgess and Oliver wants to join Adelaide because he loves the guy (and mismanagement by Melbourne) .

That's perfect . ... everyone is happy

 

[croweater 41]

Didn’t we offer three firsts for JHF?

We did.

I seem to have shelved that seeing as to where he went and what we ended with.

We’ll still good to see we are finally trying to bold rather than vanilla

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

We don’t ever have anything like this happen to us. That is he even mentioned in a thought of a trade for a player of Oliver’s talent.

We usually just pick up the Sam
Gibson and Chris Burgess’s of the AFL world and think that was nice.

Rankine & Dawson last 2 years, so we have improved on this front...

 

[ams4crows]

The other irony Grotto is McAdam wants to leave Adelaide because of mismanagement by Burgess and Oliver wants to join Adelaide because he loves the guy (and mismanagement by Melbourne) .

McAdam has a limit and knows what that limit it is and won't push past it just because a trainer tell him to

 

[GROTTO]

This is an Adelaide board tradition of getting excited over a big fish that never I repeat never gets reeled in

Crows are fishing tonight, its beginning to feel like Xmas..........

 

[Crow till I die]

The other irony Grotto is McAdam wants to leave Adelaide because of mismanagement by Burgess and Oliver wants to join Adelaide because he loves the guy (and mismanagement by Melbourne) .

Hang on..does Oliver WANT to join the crows?..this has escalated

 

[I Lost My Keays]

Are players are allowed to nominate a club before trade period?

 

[hippyhippy]

Hang on..does Oliver WANT to join the crows?..this has escalated

That's what everyone is reporting...

I won't believe until something is official... AFC is the club everyone uses to drive up players prices

 

[Danger in Texas]

Hang on..does Oliver WANT to join the crows?..this has escalated

‘Open to a move’

 

[cleanhands]

Today has been so much fun, I'm 95% certain tomorrow normal service will resume and either a massive scandal will break for us, or Oliver won't be traded by Melbourne.

And this

Its official the moment its posted on Bigfooty.

I'm sure it was the SANFL fitness staff and not Burgess, McAdam felt he wasn't right but was sent back and then did a serious injury in the SANFL.
