Traded Mitch McGovern [traded to Carlton in a three-way trade involving Sydney and McAdam]

[Mr_Moogle]

Lol. Didn’t you select MGov with a pick in the 40s?

We have good recruiters. The only part of Adelaide FC which is elite imo. We are pretty good at turning late picks into decent players.

 

[Bic]

Argument sake, if the future 3rd is also pick 40...

IN: 13, 70 + McAdam
OUT: McGovern, 40, 40

Values McGovern at pick 43. Add McAdam, let's say at pick 40 again, values McGovern at 23.

The team that did the best out of this trade was the Sydney Swans... Got very good value for their pick.

 

[dickie_douglas]

the deal probably suits all clubs involved, crows high draft pick , carlton key forward they wanted, sydney don't need first round as they will get one anyway with a bid.

I think your figures may be slightly “rubbery”..

So trading pick 40 and a future 3rd rounder is actually quite significant then

 

[Mitchell54]

So it’s

13, McAdams, 2019 5th
For
McGovern & 2019 3rd

+ Sydney getting 26 & 28 for Pick 13 which will more than cover costs for Blakey.

Sounds about right

 

[Pablito]

So Adelaide get their first round pick but have to give up 2 3rd rounders in the process while Carlton has to give up an extra second round pick.

Comprimises all round. Not bad.

 

[HairyO]

Picks from 40 onwards tend to be highly speculative junk anyway.. no loss there.

We got Harry Morrison at pick 74 as a part of the O'Meara trade. Morrison was nominated for Rising Star this year, and played nearly every game, and will play every game next year (barring injury).

So we can call them speculative, but I wouldnt say junk.

In fact, Hawthorn have a number of starting 22 who were pick 40+.

Pretty sure the Dogs won a flag with half the team having been pick 40+ or rookies or DFA.

Id say the deal is pretty reasonable. A good indicator for this is both sides seem happy.

Of course. Can't predict the future.

 

[captain cotch 9]

Will Carlton play Mcgovern forward or back like his brother?
Carlton seem pretty good up forward with Curnow and Mckay.
Their backline is slim and Mcgovern would allow Jones/Plowman to be the 3rd tall

 

[StonesThrow]

Cant see that, most crows supporters wanted a first they got a X factor player thrown in that may or may not work, but worth the risk


Only time will tell if we were the winner, if Gov fails to live up to expectation or if 13 turns into a dud or Mcadam fails


Bit like last year everyone though Port killed it, Watts, Motlop, Rockliff, Thomas, Mackenzie all failed to fire a shot and realistically probably lost the trade period

I think you'll find the average crows fan wanted <= pick 10. Average blues fan wanted to part with a late first or second rounder and McAdam.

 

[TheMase]

With a small gain of 194 points for brokering a trade that has nothing to do with us, why exactly should we be giving up something extra?

If anything something small should be coming our way...

And I was right! Makes more sense for us.

 

[Lolbert]

And I was right! Makes more sense for us.

Look everyone! He was right!

Think he’d be wasted as a key defender and we should be persisting with Weitering and Marchbank in those roles.

Think he plays as a roaming CHF with Charlie, leaving Harry deep. One of them gets the third defender. .

 

[Mr_Moogle]

You'd have to ask our recruiters. Maybe they don't rate the depth of next years draft.

Most of the time I'd back them in to find talent all the way down to the rookie draft though. Ogilvie is a gun.

 

[marty36]

And I was right! Makes more sense for us.

Carlton had to throw that 40 at you, Roo had said two seconds wouldn't do it, and carlton needed that first to get the deal done, it cost them two seconds and 40 to get hold of that first pick, Points weren't coming into for Adelaide they wanted a first pick and got it, Mcadam was probably worth the third Adelaide gave away being around pick 45

 

[Vamos Juddamente]

Clear win win. Carlton just don’t need more 18 year olds so giving up two seconds makes good sense. Great for the Crows to get 13 which they might be able to turn into 4 with the Saints. Carlton probably paid overs but so they should since Adelaide held the upper hand.

 

[Jars458]

And I was right! Makes more sense for us.

That's twice in 17 years on BigFooty. Well done old fella.

 

[Milanista28]

All clubs happy I think.

 

[marty36]

All clubs happy I think.

Mclure wasn't

 

[TerryWallet]

Sydney have whipped in and taken all Adelaide's cream in this deal.

Pick 40 being that cream.

 

[FreeAgent1]

Mclure wasn't

Im happy that he is unhappy.

 

[Vikingblood]

Yep, this is a win/win trade. The way they should be.

 

[Milanista28]

Mclure wasn't

Who cares what he thinks? His opinion on most trades are wrong.

 

[marty36]

Have to say Reid is coming up the goods, his last 3 trades out Cameron, Lever and Gov all well and truly in our favour, to get gibbs in hurt but overall hes doing well
