But we're not willing to do that. We've told them that already by considering the steak knives.

TBH, the only way to salvage it from this point would be for someone higher up to remove Reid from the negotiations- reset the board, but they would never do that.

So you want to remove the guy who went 2 for 2 in trades like this?

I equally think you have your wires crossed as we've never stated that we don't expect a first rounder. We stated we don't expect pick 1 in this deal. Fair enough, as I can't envision getting a first without offering either 8 or 14 as a downgrade.

We've set our price to a top 10 pick + McAdam as what we roughly expect. The top 10 may sway to 12-13 with something else added just due to Sydney being the logical trade partner here.
 
The resemblance is that Reid held out and bluffed the media with BS till we got what we want.

Reid has an end game in mind and I dont think it is the shitty pick in the 20 and McAdam steak knives.for Gov.

It's not gonna happen look at the tweet shouter put out. He's had some good intel in the past
 
If Carlton/Gold Coast didn’t have these mature-age picks, I guarantee you nobody would be talking about McAdam. He would have been a speculative late/rookie pick at best. Nobody in the media had even heard of him 3 weeks ago, but suddenly he’s the second coming of Tim Kelly and worth heaps.

Truth is, Carlton have actually already set the value of their mature-age picks. They sold Nathan Kreuger to Geelong for a third-round pick (42). So thats what they’re worth. Accepting McAdam and a second rounder is the same as accepting a second and a third for Gov. Even with another second thrown in, thats still not enough in my books, unless we can turn those two seconds into a pick 10ish, but the onus needs to be on Carlton to get that pick swap done first, not for us to just accept it and hope we can do a swap later. It may never eventuate and we’re stuck with two crap picks.

Apples and oranges mate.

1 valuation doesn’t suit everyone. You can not expect to buy you house and my house for the same price. It’s stupid to expect that.

However, McAdam would be worth a pick between 25-35 but that is beside the point. That’s the crows choice where we draft him, not Carlton’s.

His valuation should not influence the McGovern deal. If we were interested in McAdam, we should have said from the very beginning, that will be a separate deal and negotiations will apply accordingly.

Macadam is a far superior player to Kruger. So setting 1 price for everyone is just wrong.
 
nah we are

That's a massively quick drop from categorically asking for a top 10 pick (which is what we were reported to have done yesterday).

I'd be inclined to say that isn't too believable yet if at all. Unless we've struck another deal somewhere with most likely Gold Coast.

I'd equally say this trade won't get done until Shiel is settled with what he is doing.

How do you know we asked for a top 10 pick?
 
People take too much stock in the pressers done by Reid and SOS etc.

SoS wont be sitting there watching Reids words in Trade Week Radio/TV getting cues on the trade.

Those interviews are for the Trainspotters.

Let me guess.

Last time you negotiated anything was peanut butter on white for vegimite on whole meal bread in year 3 at lunch time?
 
Look at the tweet from shouter has had some decent intel before.
He had the inside tip that dusty would win the Brownlow this year...

Yeah no. That tweet makes no logical sense whatsoever.

Shouter is also quite prone to some shocking intel as well. He's better then the average twitter rumour mongerer but he's not batting at that high of a percentage.

Carlton news he seems to always get correct I've noticed.
 
Didn't the AFL Shouter twitter get shut down and restarted?

I always thought the original had intel, the reincarnation was more a troll (at least towards Port).
