Adelaide Crows 2007 (TAR 2004)

[thomo]

With the trade game going on. I think i have finished with my trades, so i have put my trades into their respective teams.
I am going to make a Adelaide Crows story from it with these players.


Here are the trades i have done.


Lost: Scott Welsh and Bernie Vince to West Coast
Martin Mattner to Sydney
Ben Hudson and Michael Doughty to Collingwood

Gained: Sam Butler and Ashley Hansen from West Coast
Adam Schneider from Sydney
Leon Davis from Collingwood
Note, i did get pick 14 and 46 in the draft into them trades aswell, but there hasnt been a draft yet so i cant make them into the team.


Hope you enjoy, and lets see if them 4 players can make a difference to the Crows.

Coaches Views on the new players to the club,​

Ashley Hansen: A tall Centre Half Forward, who like Riewoldt, has one of the best engines in the league. A good mark on the lead, but his marking in contests can let him down at times. Can kick a bag of goals and is only 23. So we are happy to give the kid alot of game time this year, considering he doesnt injury himself.

Sam Butler: A South Australian, and a fan favourite in Adelaide. The backmen, i would call him, is young, only just turned 20 the other week and has a huge career ahead of him. Might not play many games this year because our defence is steady enough, but will get some game time if one player is injured.

Adam Schneider: Played in the Swans premierships, a small forward who can have a stint into the middle. We need him as a small forward not only to kick goals, but does what Matty Bode does and gives offensive pressure.

Leon Davis: Probably the pick up we really really neeeded. Like Schneider, is a small forward and can egnight the crowd with his goal kicking. But we need Davis to do what Davey does for Melbourne, and put defensive pressure on the defenders in our forward line.
