Trade Requested Alex Neal-Bullen - Wants to become a Crow

[Trent the flight Steward]

I think you seriously have no idea about how contracts work.

Onus sits on the Neal Bullen camp if they want to break it, it isn’t the Dees problem.

He's contracted so the dee's have it budgeted in their system already. Not sure port or crows had him ever on their radar and I'd be doubtful they've given he's contract probably 4-500k any scope to be on their books. So the onus is on melbourne to either be the good guys and do the trade to a loyal servant or keep him on their list for 2 more years

All clubs delist a few players to ensure there is budget for new players coming in.

Dees will prioritise other deals and leave this for ANB camp to coordinate/sort out as they are the drivers of it. lol @ onus to be the good guys. Talk about scraping the barrel.

How about being the good guys for an incoming player and not pissing them off on the way into your club? I would rather look after players on the way in, not on the way out.

What prioritise petracca or Oliver trades?

Or will you guys look for the next schache, billings, Hunter, Fullerton to add on to that great squad of yours

Yep, why would we prioritise a trade for a bloke we would rather stay.

He can sort that shit out for himself.

You're being ridiculous. Your club has come out and said they'll coordinate a trade.

Just relax.

Where did they say they will co ordinate a trade? Link?

Doesn’t say they will co ordinate, says they will work with SA based clubs to ensure best outcome for MFC

Best outcome is a first rounder for a contracted bloke whose one of the first selected week.

play on a wing? That is one position that both SA clubs could do with upgrading.

Delusional. What do you think work with means.

Hint.

Coordinate.

Lol, Dees have agreed with ANB to trade him home to Adelaide for personal reasons.

This will happen despite what you think in your postings & it won't be for anything like a 1st rounder as that is delusional!

This is the absolute peak of delusion. Not even you believe any of what you’ve written here. Come off it.

Can Alex Neal-Bullen play on a wing? That is one position that both SA clubs could do with upgrading.

He was one of many tried on the wing in 2019 and perhaps a bit of 2020 also.

He has a lot of the attributes you’d want in a wing like endurance and discipline to stick to a task.

But for whatever reason he wasn’t very good when tried on the wing.

You’d want a better kick ideally from a wing and he’s just solid for foot skills. He’s also not a great mark so wouldn’t be that effective dropping into the backline as an extra.

He’s a good tackler so that’s also a bit wasted on the wing.

Today he had 22 touches at 100% with nine score involvements including three goal assists. He attended roughly half the centre bounces so mostly played as a mid. A bit different to how he’s used if Petracca and Oliver are fit. Sparrow also went out injured during the game.

 

[Mostyn]

He's a late second in actual value - might become an early third if Melbourne want to demonstrate they prioritise player welfare.

Or the Crows may end up with a late 2nd that could work, depending what they get for Berry.

It seems unlikely Melbourne, after announcing publicly that he's going, are going to go full-Dodoro and say that he's staying if they don't get overs.

 

[danster168]

It'll cost Adelaide Pick 25 with Pick 38 coming back. Really odd on the crows board reading that they think they're going to get him for nothing. lol

I'd be happy to get him always been a big fan of what he brings on the field.
I'm not going to bother with his value as I've got no idea what the club will do hah!

 

[Cleric]

Bottom 4 club playing McHenry and Murphy doesn’t need a premiership player to free up Rankine to maximise his output?

Ooookay then.

Why would Dees pay his contract? He is walking out on the club. If you walked out on your job do you think they would keep paying you? That’s a comical take.

Look, he's not the prize pig at the Royal Show, and is 29 before the season starts. You think that is worth a high second round pick?

 

[Beats]

Will be sad to see him go, but the circumstances are understandable (family health concerns and no family support network in Melbourne for either him or his partner).

Elite runner that’s clever in traffic with solid foot skills and tackling. On and off field leader. Ideally suited as a high half forward (pressure/ link up player) that can do a job or give a chop out through the midfield.

Worth more to Melbourne than we will get in a trade, but club will facilitate under compassionate circumstances. Anticipate it will be for a pick in the 30s or a 20s pick with Melbourne giving a late 30s early 40s pick back.

Fun fact - he always looks gassed because he has an issue with his nose (from birth) and can only breathe through his mouth as a result.

you thought McAdam was worth that...and he's significantly worse.

 

[OccamsRazorRay]

McAdam was quite good when you drafted him, you also had a need for forwards so paid the relevant price. A future 2nd at the time was looking like Pick 35-40 for us.

the only ones spruiking McAdam were Adelaide fans. They clearly overrate their own players. He's been a spud.

I haven't read that at all on our board, weird

 

[ABAB]

McAdam wasn't contracted so you didn't absorb his contract and a F2 at that time was seen as pick 32-34.

Uh oh, seems like you're confusing McAdams performance AFTER he was traded to Melb, with his performances whilst he was with the Crows, which were quite serviceable.

Injuries and the forward line has even been worst this year under Goodwin's game plan.
