Surely an easy decision if he mainly just wants to go back to Adelaide.
Seems strange he would take less money to play at Port over Adelaide.

Not really, it seems your club is far better able to sell itself to prospective recruits than ours is. Something is not right with our recruitment team.
Agree but problems run far deeper than our recruitment team. Club deserves to be slammed if they miss out on Cumming.
Should be offering him 5 years too.

The crows are going to have to make sure to blow Ports deal away here. The optics of losing this deal are not going to be good.
Not that easy. Clubs still have to maintain the necessary cap space looking forward. Optics might not be good but the bigger picture is more important. I think Cumming may have already chosen Port btw.
100%. Unfortunately, "blowing Port's deal away" isn't in our typical MO. Our approach to landing trade targets has often been described as 'transactional' rather than 'making them feel wanted'. Often means we've missed out.

Just pulling a comment on our board
Sam Edmund 50/50 on Cumming to Port or Crows (said this today)
Chris Dittmar has been told by his contacts at the club that Port are not confident of landing him (said this yesterday)
Update: Listened to Tex on MMM this morning, interesting to hear he and a few Crows players had a beer with Ditts before the Brownlow on Monday night, maybe Tex was his source for that comment yesterday? Tex did get asked about it this morning and it was more the tone of his answer that sounded a lot like someone very confident Cumming will be heading to the Crows, worth a listen (initially gave a sarcastic answer to stir up Ditts and then finished with “hopefully he heads to our footy club and we will see how that plays out within a few days”).
Rowie mentioned that Tex had dinner with Cumming and his fiancee over the weekend while he was in town for the medicals. Cumming also didn’t meet with Ken due to their prelim commitments.

You haven’t chatted to enough of our supporters! If we don’t get him we are a terrible, if we offered more than Port we are a terrible club paying so much for an injured player. That’s crows life
I am Issac Cummings wife.. but he hasn't told me yet so

Surely you would be concerned by now given you aren’t leaving Sydney.
