If you want to drag Rankine through ND and use pick 5 there be my guest. Suns will not accept future first. You really don't understand Suns situation.

Disgusting pigs. Not surprised at their behaviour after reading this.
So Adelaide wouldn't trade pick 5 but instead use pick 5 to draft Rankine. That's some 4d chess right there, as I've said.
It's 1 pick for a player who's had 4 years on AFL experience and has excelled at it, who also hasn't reached his peak.
And who's to say he goes to Adelaide at 5?
West Coast have cash, North have Cash (and Clarko), hell Essendon have cash and want Rankine.
Trade pick 5 for rankine, we'll probably send a 2nd back, it's a win for Adelaide and a bitter pill to swallow for us.

Go away dude. Don't tell us what we will accept on our own board. Just another Crows pig.

Crows fans are a deadset embarassment. Blows my mind Izak wants to go there but I guess thats why Touk sounded so surprised. Absolute weirdos.

Its not what they will do its the threat of what they can do which will drive a deal of not pick 5. Adelaide doesnt need a 2nd back. lets see what happens its only our opinions not the clubs and we can only predict how we think they will see it.

Even though it's been reported already that Dimi Parhas told suns management that he wouldn't trade another indigenous player to Adelaide at the start of the season.

rankine asked his manager and manager has to do what they are asked to by the player
If you say so.

Take the Cerra deal for comparison. Same age. Cerra has more runs on the board and that was Carlton’s 1st and 3rd. It’ll be something similar.

I dont really care if we get pick 5 or not the footy gods will sort it out, some of our best players are not high draft picks, Touk, Chol, Ballard, Collins, Powel, Witts etc. “Some” Crows fans I fear suffer from a small minded mentality, instead of celebrating that a player like Izak is prepared to play for them they want to Underpay thinking it will be a double win, if history has shown us anything it’s that you reap what you sow.
Examples, Carlton and the Cripps debacle, the crows and the Crouch attempted compo Rort, Carlton salary cap cheating, Essendon and it’s need to WIN every trade, all these clubs have been subpar since they adopted this small minded mentality. In the end he is one player, the club and its integrity needs to be paramount, if that means sending him to North and getting nothing then so be it, we haven’t missed Martin and it could be argued that the place is better for not having him and taking a stand

For all you Crows supporters watching our board we want pick 5 you want to give us nothing or a future first.
End of argument stay on your board you all sound like a broken record now.
Let’s wait until October 12 before we pass judgement.

I think all
You do understand Snowtown a little better when you read the Adelaide board I reckon
I was born and raised in Adelaide - it was called the Ar-hole of Australia then - nothing's changed. Adelaide is to Australia what Kansas City is to the USA. Many leave and few go back - Izak might find out why if he maintains this stance.

To be fair when your young you don't realise that. I was 10 when I left and it wasn't until I went back at 21 that I realised how shit it was and I now call myself a proud Queenslander. Granted I'm not a fan of my extended family they're a little bit weird.

They are crows fans so wouldn't surprise me. It's horrendous down their its like a bunch of rabid dogs barking at the footy and occasionally they bite. I much prefer the more civilised atmosphere here on the goldy, relaxed but with manners.
Listening to SEN, it looks like Cochrane touched a nerve of some people with money talks. Two other Cochrane's remarks were also spot on. Players disappointed as they expected all were in it together and a lot of investment put into Rankine to become AFL player including Dew. I do feel for Dew.
The interesting thing Cochrane mentioned is that Rankine has an arthritic hip. Obviously manageable at the moment.

Feel a bit uncomfortable with him talking about that last sentence, his governance isn't in the football or medical space, and him just talking about information like that is a bit... Weird.
Agree, I would not disclose that info. I guess he wanted to show the investment Suns made into Rankine and disappointment got better of him. Cochrane did the same with JOM, when he mentioned sending JOM to Germany for surgery on patella tendons to deal with tendinitis.
Izak came in 10th in the B&F last night - which is about right given he played a few good games and a lot of so so ones. I'm waiting to see who comes in 10th for the Crows in their voting. Should give an interesting comparison to value etc.
Tactics, crook shoulder ongoing concerns and an arthritic hip. Create some doubt and you also don't need to be a medico to mention treatment was given for an ailment affecting a player's fitness. It's not over yet and good to see Izak was at the B&F last night BUT even more interested to find out how the rest of the boys interacted with him. Hopefully trying to still win him back and not treat him like a pariah - until he's gone!
Just wondering what shoulder operation Rankine had. It originally happened in Port game. For sure, I thought he dislocated his shoulder looking at replay. Then Dew mentioned, he had 3-4 re-occurrences since then. So my guess would be subluxations. I doubt, Rankine would be able to go to B&F after full reconstruction a couple of day ago. But who knows.
