He was worth a late second, early third. Same as ANB.
When push comes to shove pick 42 is closer to his value then 25.
Traded Alex Neal-Bullen - Traded to the Crows in exchange for their 2024 R2 selection (currently pick 28)

nah. he's worth pick 30. That's 5 off 25. 12 off 42.
He'll come top 5 in our Bnf this year. He's done a lot more in his career than McAdam. Twice the player.
That's why it will be a F2 next year.

it could be, yeah.
Yeah, I think we’ll be heavily pushing for the F2. More likely to be closer to ANB’s value of 30-35. That said, it could just as easily be around the same mark as this year, so there’s upside in the deal for Melb

30 is too early. That's a mid 2nd.
36 or so seems right. 42 is fair, considering the Crows didn't even pursue him and are helping facilitate a player welfare situation.

F2 with melbourne's F3 coming back to usThat's why it will be at most F2 (wouldn't be surprise if it ends up being F3)

Yep. Depends on other trades though.

What am I missing here?
Adelaide mids are already one paced how does ANB help that?

ANB more of a half-forward than a mid

I cannot fathon why ANB + Port are just not organising a deal.
If im Port id be throwing Soldo + 37 at Demons and working towards trading F1st for some of Richmomds picks to get back into the draft +get Joe Richards still too

McAdam was a decent player before he went to the Dees... so irrelevant.

'helping facilitate a player welfare situation' lol. Youre a team that came 15th. Sure Dees had a bad year but he'll come about 3rd in our BnF. Who will come 3rd in your Bnf? Whoever it is, I'm sure pick 42 won't cut it.

Good SANFL/VFL player but cant transition to AFL. While he is pacey at the lower levels and exploits people with it, up at AFL level his pace is just okay at best and his game falls into a heap because of it. Outside of that, his overhead makring his poor, his kicking is atrocious unless he is 30m out from goal and his defensive ability while filled with effort doesnt extend to tackles as the bigger AFL bodies just shove him off and run away
Terrible trade for Melbourne. They should have aimed higher
Well I guess he will have to retire then.

Love ANB, really good player, has been awesome for us.
But given the situation, I'd be fine with just facilitating the trade for a F2 or F3.

Hope not, you'd think we'd have learned with stupid contracts that take players to 33 years old. Sloane, Smith & Laird all in our face right now as cautionary tales. If he wants to come home for personal reasons, honouring his existing deal should be enough.
Unfortunately we have a desperate and incompetent list management group and will no doubt overpay for any possible instant improvement.
I won't be surprised if our future first ends up going and being replaced with Lukoscious, ANB and a crappy future second. We're that bad and desperate and Suns and Melbourne would know it.
