Game Day Exorcising our Demons. Crows vs Melbourne Rd 19

[ABAB]

I've heard that before - 2017

We better see it next year.......might have seen it this year if we weren't playing catch-up all season (in terms of trying to win games, fitness and injuries).

They'll blame the football department cap. Except every other club has the same cap and isn't hamstrung into hiring spuds

pay the 50% tax - who cares!

 

[Thetrader15]

Are you ******* serious? No wonder we end up with the likes of Hart.

So we prefer to spend money away from football rather than trying to win a flag.

Shaun Rehn to be at the club next year...wait for it

 

[Thetrader15]

And there was mention here that Rankine has been saying he prefers to stay in SA in his interviews so he could do a Wingard and slip to pick 5.

pity we won't have pick 5

Tyson edwards got kicked out of port.
Scott thompson? Dont run to defend!
Bassett? I love watching port games at the moment. Jake kelly would approve.
Truck rutten?
Bring Bickey back from 5aa duties?

Remember if they played for us theyre automatically the best person for the job.

We will have pick 8.
Melbourne will likely give us pick 10 in my prediction. Combine that with a 2019 first, CEY and wilson to get us pick 3. Rankine.
Trade our pick 8, McGovern and Atkins for pick 1. Lukosius.

3 mid firsts, a player thats worth a mid first and a player worth pick 20ish. 2 players worth 3rd rounders.
Probably about right to get the two picks.

Then use our pick 19 and 37 to see if we can get higher and grab rozee.

so nett:

Out: ~10, 8, 2019/1, CEY, Wilson, Gov, Atkins
In: Lukosius, Rankine

I wouldn't bother mentioning CEY or Wilson - of no value

Finish 12, we will get pick 8 (due to Lynch FA pick) and trade pick 8 with Carlton's pick 20 and/or Melbourne's first to pick 5.

Exactly right

We should be aiming to pay the tax. It's a badge of honour for the club. Means that revenue generation is working - tick for membership, merchandise, sponsorship, marketing, alternative revenue streams etc

It's not like the tax is actually harming our revenue. You have to spend the money to get taxed. We just have to spend a bit more than we do with spending below the cap

Would swap for Hart immediately. Richmond insight.
