Just hope Gibbs is amenable to staying so if a deal is done it favours Carlton (as it should). Adelaide pay a premium for their flag shot, Carlton improve their rebuild. That is how it is supposed to work in an equitable scenario. Of course, Adelaide will try and get him for the cheapest price which is their right...Carlton ask for pick pick pick.
After Eddie, Jacobs, I really hope we are on the right end of this one. Like most others, I also feel Adelaide is short a quality mid...and maybe one more on top. So close when other clubs will improve faster like the doggies and giants! Risk it all crowbeaters!

Treloar was pick 7's, Gibbs will be pick 13 and probably 15. A big difference. Would you accept an offer of pick 13 and 15 for pick 7?
If Gibbs was 22 you might have a point

Shaun Burgoyne begs to differ
I have vivid memories of the first rounder it was going to cost us to get Jacobs.

Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realise Icke and Swan were the exact same person as SOS.
I think you'll find that this won't happen. There will be some sort of compromise in the end.

Let's just hope he isn't in as much demand when he's eligible to be drafted then.
Shame Gov's manager said he ain't leaving
Yeah but how did that turn out?

I don't mind this. I do mind your avatar.
I know you are exaggerating but being the 50th best mid would mean nearly 3 players at every club are better mids which is obviously not true.
He would be the crows 2nd best mid if they get him
Also can't compare to a guy under contract to a guy with 3 years remaining, though that hasn't stopped every 2nd post in this thread doing so
Contracted player v non contracted player. Hands are a bit tied when it's either take what you can get or nothing and PSD
Inexperienced ex rookie pick v 200 game best and fairest winner.
Not very comparable
When was the last time a guy was traded with 3 years remaining on a 5 year deal?
If the crows fans think he's no good, maybe better off not getting him.
If Gibbs wasn't contracted 13 and a Lyons type would probably do it. But that isn't the case.

where not forcing you to take him. But if you do want him you will pay overs
Look I really like to see Gibbs playing finally for Crows but will be horrified and upset with Crows if we give up pick 13 plus future stars likeMcGovern, Cameron or Brad Crouch. that is just stupid and short term thinking and don't want to become another North Melb.
We payed way over for Menzel and not going to be sucked in again.
Whilst feel for Gibbs wanting to move for non footy reason like Danger ,it could be time to walk away and get a bargain deal with Rockliff therefore adding to squad not going backwards. Maybe look at a GWS over abundance of talented mids.
We have had to work through not having 2 years of losing top round draft picks don't want to see that occur again as already lost this years 2nd round pick .

A lot of us thought you were considerably in front with that deal; don't rewrite history.
He'd be amongst our top 4 mids; if you count Smith as a back.
Sloane
Crouch - Crouch - Gibbs
Sloane clearly in front; M Crouch probably second, Gibbs third, but BC should leap frog to second next year.
He's definitely what we need, and I'm sure a fair and equitable trade will be done.

I'd be disappointed if we included any first 22 players - we are a mid light so totally pointless to include Lyons as we would still be a mid light. From his manager's comments he also has no interest in facilitating that trade anyway.
Honestly if our first round pick this year on its own doesn't get the deal done I'd rather we walk away and try to make something work for Rockliff who might be more obtainable (even though Gibbs is closer to the type of player we are lacking).
Ultimately he has three years left on his deal, Carlton have every right to hold onto him IMO. He has nobody to blame but himself. He could have easily pushed a move to Adelaide through a couple years ago when he was out of contract. Funny how he suddenly got homesick when we got better...
