So if Crows offer more, he stays?
So I did make a couple of phone calls and there is now a leading contender for the services of Crouch and it’s the St Kilda Football Club.
“They’re leading the services for Crouch on a really good contract. What I’m hearing is somewhere between $600,000 and $700,000.
“I haven’t seen often a player deal with leaving a football club like Brad has dealt with it … Brad he just wants out for the biggest figure, he doesn’t care where he plays, which is unusual.”
this is backing up what marty has been saying right throughout this thread..the only caveat is that it is the 5 minute fireman and it is his intel
So if Crows offer more, he stays?
He wants more money I guess? Maybe Sydney was waiting for a offer to beat, or possibly considering Richmond still? All speculation of course.Wouldn't he already have nominated saints if that is true? Whats the hold up?
I think we both have egg on our faces nowThat’s a relief, should look good running around in your VFL team.
Adelaide will match. Where most teams cop a little loss. Adelaide won't accept 19 if they can fleece 15 out of St Kilda.Will be interesting what happens if it doesn't net band 1.
Saints have 15, 58, 71. Not a lot to play with unless any players end up being involved.

Well that is the thing, if Adelaide were willing to offer him this deal and Crouch wants to stay he would have just signed a contract.Adelaide will match. Where most teams cop a little loss. Adelaide won't accept 19 if they can fleece 15 out of St Kilda.
The interesting thing I think is what Brad does when they match i.e. do you stay?
Crows will be able to match from a "can" point of view. Would they want to pay him that? No.Well that is the thing, if Adelaide were willing to offer him this deal and Crouch wants to stay he would have just signed a contract.
The Crows may not be able to match it if Crouch wants to stay and just wants the money as well.
I actually think if the crows were offering a little less he still stays
But that is why they might not be able to match.Crows will be able to match from a "can" point of view. Would they want to pay him that? No.
The problem is when you match you make it the players decision, not the clubs.
I don't disagree with you, I just don't think Adelaide thinks that way. Adelaide didn't even have a contract offer for him on the table. They apparently told him to go find an offer.But that is why they might not be able to match.
Normally when a player requests to leave they want out, if it is true Brad wants to stay but just wants more money than can they match knowing they may have to actually pay Brad that money?
What’s that? an accumulator that doesn’t hurt other teamsExactly what the saints need actually
Actually yeah.What’s that? an accumulator that doesn’t hurt other teams
Well you know what you have to do to avoid a trade .Actually yeah.
We need a bloke that can get the footy in contested areas and to help Steele.
Honestly not the biggest issue that he can’t kick as our game plan half the time is bomb it to the square and bring it to ground.
Happy to get him as FA but if it was a trade then meh
