Traded #42: Adam Saad - Traded to Carlton for pick 8 (with some junk picks)

[Lore]

There was no bad blood between Saad and Essendon, he just had to get out of the club.

Saad's manager also said it's not about Saad's role and not wanting to do a lockdown job, but then said that Saad spoke to Teague and Teague was really clear about what Saad's role would be at Carlton. So obviously the role Saad would play was something Saad was sold on, and was a consideration after all.

This whole interview does not pass the sniff test.

Go well anyway, Saady.

Saad told Teague what his role would be?

Go well indeed then.

Best of wishes Saad. I'm going to miss his dash from HB.
Great player.

You can wipe your tears with the highest pick ever paid for a back pocket (who is out of contract and 27 next year).

He is a star. Our tears are one of your concern.

He'll be well worth it. Pick 8 in a compromised draft doesn't really mean as much as people think.

 

[BomberARMY]

Now to hope he does **** all and plays like shit for the Blues..

 

[Bunk Moreland]

Shocked and annoyed when he wanted out but if you’d have told me then we could have pick 8 for him I’d be very happy. He’s a loss of course, but you have to give to get. Key forwards and decent midfielders are multiple times more important and this will help us get them. Very happy.

Gold Coast>Essendon>Carlton.

It's like the poor campaigner never wants to win anything.

 

[rusman]

Jeez that carlton supporter is under my skin now.

“27” and “back pocket”

Both statements are wrong or meaningless.

Zero idea and a strong opinions really grinds my gears.

Club hopper. Would fit in with the premier league

 

[Schnitzengruben]

Sad (or should I say Saad amirite) to see him go, but same with Daniher; at least we got good value out of him. All the best Adam!

 

[Saint]

People love to criticise Dodoro, but this and the Wright trade have worked out pretty well. Dashing half back flankers are a dime a dozen. Fingers crossed our first round picks are productive this year!

Go and watch him specifically from the last two years. The dude has been our best small defender since he arrived, and you're getting him for his prime years. I would honestly rather he wanted to stay, but at least a decent pick helps us reload.

[11kgm]

Hope Townsend shit mixes him next year

 

[Fin ice Smuggler]

Agreed.

I'm not dirty on him leaving, i'm dirty on the club for establishing a culture that made him want to leave.

And to the filth of all places?

How many seasons before Carlton hurts his feelings and he asks for a trade?

Blue Baggers got no balls.

What happened to their PSD speak?

Pick 8 bitches!!!!!

I was pretty close in what I believed the deal would be.
People may wonder about pick 87 but there is a chance only 50 to 55 picks may be taken this year so it may well end up in the 60 range.

Do those picks gain points value if clubs start passing on their late ones?
