The Eddie Betts show will be remembered. He brought it to every game he played, an absolute gem of a player and leader.
I will love Eddie wherever he ends up, pure footballer and a gentleman.

A bigger deal out west.
Sad, but completely necessary.
I'm sure we're willing to offer him a coaching role, but if he wants to play on, it would be a terrible move to deny that chance.

Do we know how true this is? Is Rowe reliable these days?
If it is, thank you for your service Ed, you brought us lots of joy all throughout your stay here

He's contracted. so we pay him out or HE wants to leave.
what was the convo?

Rowe said news from the exit meetings with players is that Betts has been told he's played his last game for Adelaide, his manager is looking for a new home for him.
Interesting, about 3 or so weeks ago Betts said he had a chat with the club and they told him he's absolutely a required player next year.

Excellent.
Sentiment should never get in the way of the club.
Hope this is true.
Love Ed but it's past time.

Sad day however Eddie has rapidly declined since the 2017 GF

Do you know how long it took for us to get a reliable small forward?
Finally we get one and waste the opportunity.

Holy shitbags if we've moved Eddie on and not considered even getting him into a coaching/mentoring role at the AFC, but then re-sign DMack, I don't now what I might do.
If they let Eddie go and keep someone like Mackay it won't look good

We’ll move D Mac into Burton’s role, Burton into Smart’s role, and Otten and Douglas into mentoring roles.
Smart, new chairman.

I would be happy if we carried him for another year just to get him in a coach/mentor role.
