Cameron for pick 18 surely.

Haha Crows board in meltdown over the Gibba deal.

As in bad? Because they really got desperate on that one, the Blues will be so excited because they initiated the trade AND ripped the Crows off.

I would be. Ridiculous price to pay for a guy who is universally overrated.

 

[Hollow Knight]

They got overs for Lever, and paid overs for Gibbs.

Another one of those situations where it's okay when you look at the whole body of work. They clearly don't rate this draft.

 

[Crawb]

In fairness to the Crows they just got to win a flag and they're also winners from the deal.

But two first rounders for a guy who is 29 by the start of the next season? Yikes.

And they gave him a 4 year deal as well.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

The Crows have been blinded by the idea that their Premiership window is open. For that reason I think they'll want to keep Cameron for one more year.

 

[Hollow Knight]

That trade is a really damning assessment by Adelaide of this year's draft, If we rate this draft similar to them, pick 12 genuinely could be on the cards for Cameron.

 

[BigHippy]

If both teams finish in the same positions as this year, it's 10 + 16 + 36 + 77 for Gibbs + 22 + 40 + 77.
Equivalent to pick 7. I don't particularly mind it from a Crows perspective as they need to shoot for a flag while they can IMO, but it's pretty funny considering only a few days ago I had several Crows supporters tell me Gibbs wasn't worth pick 16.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Having just poached a contracted player, pretty hard for Adelaide to stay on their high horse about our quest for Cameron.

Still think with Cameron, Hodge and Ballenden in we could trade up and just aim for 2 high picks. We dont need 4 draftees this year unlike last year. package them all up and try land 2 top 10 picks.

Good in theory... lots of clubs trying to trade up without success though... I guess Saints are our only option?

I think there is a fair bit of scope for some horse trading in the top 10.

Don't bank on us having pick 1 by 2PM.

More so that crows want in on next year where's there's quality SA kids available. Not sure they will have low enough picks to get them. But in nxt yrs trade & if live trading comes in they might be able to do some sort of deal

 

[Eons]

IF we give up pick 12 and get something back for Cameron they would be hoping Fogarty is still available at 12.

 

[chopperduck]

Saints have said the entire trade period that they were keen to try up the order. They have 7 & 8 so there isnt much higher to go. Trades for just picks will be left til the end. Sounds like 18 might be used for Cameron, so that gives us 1 12 and 20 to use to trade up the order. Id try move 20 back to late 20s and move 1 and 12 up to the top 8.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Trading down from 1 to 7 and 8, even though it nets us two for one, is a big call in a weak draft.

The weakness doesn't really seem to kick in until we get outside the top 10. If it doesnt suit our needs, we don't do the trade. No gun at our head.

Could involve more than just Brisbane and St Kilda. May not happen at all. But anything is possible.

 

[WhiteLionFeva]

Cameron's manager suggesting 20 and a future pick could be the offering.

Would have to be a future third at best, surely. Happy with that.

 

[Crawb]

I think 1 & 12 are fine. But does seem to start to drop off after about 14-16 and completely by the early-mid 20s.

If Cameron deal involves Schache hoping we package 18 & 20 up.

 

[jackess]

Would us sweetening 20 with a 2018 pick indicate we have plans for 12 and 18?
