[Casual_Observer]

To be fair, Ross Lyin only accepts coaching teams after the rebuilt.

""We also understand the significant interest in our view on this issue given we were involved in a trade for a future first round selection which falls in the upcoming national draft."

This thread just keeps on giving.

Please never close.

Rotten Johhny reckons the only reason CFC want Eddie is because it would make for a feel good story. Am happy to tow that line until a trade s done; given they cant expect much for a player incapable of delivering anything more than a fuzzy feeling. But lets see how johnny feels after Eddie rips the Crows a lovely sharp new one when we meet them next season.

SOS is a genius..

One of my favourite tweets of all time

Young Reid looks like a person who knows he might have just done a massive blunder

But what about that “soft draw” they had?

Adelaide is looking at a Trade Period bloodbath next week with up to 10 star players all looking for a new home.

 

[HBF]

A genius on the Crows board thinks it would be great for GCS to give up Lukosius and Pick 15 for

Jenkins - who spent large chunks of this season playing SANFL (and on $600K for next 2 years)
Greenwood- spent large chunks in SANFL
Keath - good player but will be 28 next year and wants 4 year contract
and pick 21

I.e 1 x solid 28 year old plus 2 x SANFL players for Lukosius and an R1 Pick upgrade of 6 spots.

They really are ****ing nuffies over on that board.

 

[HBF]

I really hope we do another pick swap with the Crows when trade week comes around.

Can see us flying past them in 2020.

Not even "Young Reid" would he that dumb.

 

[HBF]

Lol!!

Maybe they can all ring in to 5AA and have a whinge about it....

Very kind calling most of them “stars” but clearly there are massive issues there.

And clearly it doesn’t end with the coach.

They remind me a lot of where we were in 2014. There’s a cliff fast approaching.

 

[BigBreakfast]

That's correct. Like Melbourne last year and Brisbane this year, we will have a chance to improve through a bottom half of the ladder draw.

My only issues with this are: playing the big inner city clubs brings in revenue and exposure, a view of self which is relative to games available not actual capacity (Lions straight sets) and the potential crash the following year ala Melbourne 2019.

On the other hand, getting wins under the belt and finals exposure is preferential regardless of the circumstances. Bottom line? Beat the challenge in front of you!

Apparently he won’t entertain the job..

Ross doesn't like to entertain.

I think their current list is slightly better than our list was in 2014, have more mid age talent/value

Interesting to see what they do, somehow I doubt they have the courage for a full rebuild, so they could remain a mid table side for some time
