Bryce Gibbs staying at Carlton - Silvagni in the no blinking zone

[Navara79]

When's the last time a player requested a trade with 3 years remaining on their contract?

Dayne Beams

 

[Sam_Malone]

How would you know?

I don't

 

[Red Bull]

What's this AFL mediating garbage I'm hearing???

Contracts scrawled on beer coasters aren't valid???

Bundles of cash tied up with string splashed across the kitchen table ...

I wouldn't be trading down pick #5. With that pick we get a shot at a Brodie or Taranto. Very important for us.

Take #5 and #13 to the draft. They should be our key untradeable draft picks.

#5 - Brodie/Taranto
#13 - Scrimshaw/Venables/SPP

All 5 could really add to our side. A pick in the 20's could land us Clarke/Kerr. #43 I'm hoping we get Sproule.

Next year we're in a good position because we can trade our 2018 1st for an additional top 10 pick.

We know where picks 1, 2 and 3 are already going. McCluggage, McGrath, SPS. We just need to ask Gold Coast who they will be selecting with pick four. With their need for established hard bodied midfielders my gut tells me Brodie.

They would be happy to trade our pick five for their pick eight and a second rounder.

 

[Navara79]

I don't

Why would you say she is off the mark if you didn't know? Doesn't make sense

Poaching is still a no-no.....

Or is it except for Good Friday and Christmas Day??

Cows have broken all 3 remaining Trade Rules in the book.

Gibbs family reasons notwithstanding.

 

[Kramer1]

Maybe she does but I feel her emotions have gotten the better of her this time.

Look, the crows as a club are far from perfect (we had Trigg for 15 years FFS) but the tweet of hers was far from correct.

Emotion over a club she doesn't follow?

Sounds legit

 

[Sam_Malone]

Because no one from the Adelaide Football Club or Carlton Football Club has said anything - no one can attribute a quote backing her statements up.

Dayne Beams

Wasn't that because his father was ill?

Legit reason if it wasn't an excuse to play alongside his brother.

Brisbane also paid up for it.

I know Dayne is younger but he's not the same calibre as Gibbs either.

I'd still rather Bryce was uncontracted and we get band 1 compo for him. Pick #6 sounds a LOT better than #13 and a 2nd rounder.

 

[teagueyubeauty]

Uhh, we'll it's the biggest think to happen in Adelaide since Rodney Fox had a chunk taken out of him by a shark, but lived to open his own Rodney Fox shark museum in Glenelg.
I don't know .....

Been there...probably the most interesting part of the whole stay in Adelaide!!

Where does she even mention Carlton on her profile?

It's my point...you just made it.

But Taranto is quality. He will be taken before #8.

imo we need to obtain one or the other. Brodie or Taranto.

ffs IF Bryce was a FA we'd be getting pick #6 and could get both grrrrrrr...

Free agency compensation is based on the players age in addition to other factors. There is no way we would get band one for a 30-year-old player, and there is equally no chance that he would be on a contract worth more than around 500,000 at that age.

It would be band two. Pick 19.

Nat Southby is as solid as sources get when it comes to Carlton.

Since when is Bryce 30? Come on mate, he's 27, in his prime and on BIG $$$. We'd no doubt get band 1.

Sammy, you don't have to believe it but trust us when we say that if she says something about Carlton, it's coming from inside the club.

I would never have give that article any credence but I certainly do now.

That's cool.

Lets see what happens next week in regards to the Gibbs trade.

Except she didn't mention anything about Carlton, it was Adelaide she was referring to?

must be the water

 

[The Flying Doormat]

Power definitely have no cap space - Picked up Dixon and Ryder last two years with their firsts (and would be on decent money), Hartlett and Lobbe on long term deals (and Hartlett on good money also reportedly).

Would assume R Gray and Wingard/Boak are on decent coin also.

Made a play after 2014 for a flag and didn't come off, now they need to offload Hartlett and Lobbe to free up some coin and get back into the draft.

Without repeating myself, read my earlier post and see how they are $1.5 million better off in 2017

Gold Coast will be dead keen to get pick five off us. It removes any chance of a bid being placed on bowes before pick 8. It also allows Gold Coast to use picks four, five and six on best available, and then select bowes with the points from a few second round picks.

We already know that Fremantle will use pick seven on English.

We can enter into an arrangement where we agree to give pick 5 to Gold Coast, but only if they tell us who they will select with pick five and six (Or if they agree not to take the player that we want with any of picks 4, 5 or 6 - wink wink). That way we will know if the player we want will still be available at pick eight or not.

Gold coast would pay massive overs for pick five. massive overs.

 

[OldCarltonKnows]

Time to come back down to reality Harks. We're talking about people here, not unthinking and unfeeling machines. Being able to just say LOLNOPE CONTRACT isn't always possible in the real world.

Bull****. A contract is a contract. If you're not prepared to honour it don't sign it. And this is serious money here not chump change. The only one looking bad in all this is Gibbs himself; says a lot about his character. Hold firm SOS: trade Gibbs at our price or no deal.

 

[The Old Dark Navy's]

I think it's more or less accepted that we'll get pick 13 and a second rounder [if they can get that for Lyons] off the crows.

If Zac goes we should get a second rounder for him as well.

We can then trade two of those second rounders to the Giants for Marchbank and pickett, or ontrade them for another pick in the low teens and give that to the Giants.

That leaves us with pick 5 and pick 13 and a spare second rounder in the 20s left, in addition to the Giants lads. Plus all our 2017 picks are intact.

Problem is we have to do the GWS deal first so they don't hold out for more.

Well he's not a free agent now.
