Malice.
We could but it wouldn't make any sense. If that was part of our plan we'd just trade him there (and he wouldn't accept and we'd be back to the first square)
If he goes into the PSD the risk is still that he gets picked up by GC, Port, Brisbane or then Us. No chance of getting back to Vic that way unless all those clubs pass him by (which they wont).
That said they could offer him a massive contract and cure his homesickness i'm sure.

Actually, brayds was the one who was correct about Gunston's ND & PSD options - not the Adelaide supporters.
Yes. Adelaide can always agree to give them permission to sign him - in which case we would receive compensation as per the AFL's secret formula.
He's only a 2nd round selection who hasn't set the world on fire just yet and wouldn't be on a mega-$$$ contract, even at GWS. My guess is that we'd be looking at Band-4 compensation, which is end of round 2 - not a great outcome, but better than nothing (which is the alternative if things have reached the point where Gunston has nominated for the draft).
As i said, i think it's pretty well in place to stop the new club ripping one established club to pieces by encouraging many of it's players to go in the draft..
It'd also make the new club a superpower, well more than they will be..

wasnt he saying gunston could enter the national draft, not the psd?
The rule is in place specifically to prevent GWS (and GC) from getting around the "1 uncontracted player per club" rule. Without this clause, there would be nothing to prevent them from taking a player (like Davi$), then luring another one into the draft and grabbing them there.
Yes.. and he's 100% correct. Gunston can nominate for either or both. What's your point?

wait, when the **** did they change that rule
sigh, 2008. cheerfully withdraw brayds.

Now we're talking business.
Not unless he continues the bitchyness.
Haha, now your thinking.
We just authorise GWS to select him.
Gloves off It's designed to stop the poaching of more than one player by an expansion team, didn't really consider situations such as these.
Business
I'd say Band 3 miniumum myself, but it would depend on any potential conract.

Sigh. I'm taking the piss because some Essendon supporters think that's an adequate offer.

Can we not start the shit about PSD just yet?
He'll be in demand from a number of Clubs, he has currency, we have options.

Haha. I'd expect the club, if actually interested, would offer our first rounder.
