List Mgmt. OFFICIAL: Dangerfield + Pick 50 for Picks 9, 28 and Dean Gore

[GFrost]

Third rounder I reckon.
I'd say second but if we were trading him it would mean he wanted out and we wouldn't push it.
So I'd say pick 30-45 or so.

Would that be enough to get Zac Smith?

 

[caitsith01]

c'mon seriously the opposition tagger's been going to Selwood nearly every week since 2013. He's just getting past it and unable to physically push through it anymore and I don't blame him. He's given everything to the club and I admire his commitment immensely but he's nowhere near Dangerfield, Duncan, and is slipping below Mots for mine.

I look forward to you expanding your signature there to include a "Sorry Joel Selwood I was wrong" in about round 4 next year.

 

[jazzee]

P.s the bloke saying that selwood is past it and will be your 4th best mid next year... oh boy..

Yeah, pretty baffling.

 

[Catatonic Shock]

If this is true then we may well have lost him in a few years anyway.

If true.
Although he may have had no intention but after seeing that the chance was there decided to take it.

It's true but that tagger will go to Danger now who can push past it. Selwood will be free, top 3 in Brownlow 2016 for J. Selwood!

 

[caitsith01]

what ? afl.com.au says we're giving up #9 #28 & Gore? 9 is our first?

He/she is saying not giving up both this year and next year's first rounders.

 

[azzacat]

Just had to fix up your quote. I would happily trade Selwood for that. He's just come off the worst season he's ever had and has played 8 brutal seasons (including finals nearly 9 seasons) of footy and frankly looks well past his best. I reckon physically he'd be about 32 not 27.

Don't drink and post kiddies. Selwood might not have had his best year but his ceiling is still higher than Dangerfield's.

Crows wanted 2 firsts AND a player. So would have been 9, next years first and Gore for eg.

 

[Willo_]

If Dangerfield can't give you a hard-on, nothing will!

Hahaha genuinely made me LOL

Well done

 

[GFrost]

If Dangerfield can't give you a hard-on, nothing will!

That should go in the title of this thread

 

[BlightysCats]

You are not comparing like for like. Selwood would probably have looked great standing outside packs waiting for someone to shovel the ball out to him too. Unfortunately he would have been waiting a long, long time in 2015.

I know they're not like for like but the Geelong coaching staff felt Motlop had a better season than Selwood and so do I.

 

[Samcro24]

Solid post.

I just think the "something" should be 28 or Gore but not both.

I guess it depends how you rate Gore. Dont know much about him tbh.

 

[Catatonic Shock]

Would that be enough to get Zac Smith?

Perhaps.
Out of contract. Out of favour. Nominates Geelong (only?).
Possible if we push it.

 

[darren forssman]

With Geelong at the trade table, probably pick 50-something.

nah, we would be offering a pick with him.

 

[Art Vandelay_]

Motlop finished above Selwood in the Carji. So what's so funny? Seems our coaching staff already think Motlop was better than Selwood this season.

This season only. Still the better footballer.

 

[ChookNorris]

Things that concern me if the trade is as reported (1st,2nd,gore for just danger) Also making a couple of assumptions that we use future picks to get henderson and smith)

Gone:Johnson, Kelly, Stokes, McIntosh, Blease, Rivers, Hartman
Going: Jansen, Simpson, Walker, Gore, Pick 9, Pick 28.

Thats 11 Players and our first two draft picks.

Coming: Dangerfield, Selwood, Smith, Henderson (assuming they get all these guys) Thats 4 players. Leaving 7!!! list spots to fill.

Where to from here? Well they could upgrade Two of the 4 remaining rookies on the list, Luxford and or Bates, neither of which need to be upgraded this year. But they can do so with their last two picks in the draft, 100 and 118.

Geelong must then bring in at least two DFA's since the draft only goes for 8 rounds and be left with picks 46, 64, 82, 100(luxford), 118(bates) in what many consider a shallow draft. Losing pick 28 and a good young player with this many spots to fill is madness. Especially when you could get him for free.

 

[Matthew Jelley]

So excited. I think in the circumstances this can be seen as a win win win
Geelong got Dangerfield for cheaper than his worth
Adelaide got a fair bit more tham FA compensation
Gore gets to move somewhere to get an opportunity. He may have broke into the side next year before adding danger and selwood but a lot tougher with those in the current group.

 

[FAITH]

Geelong supporters: What the hell are we giving up 9, 28 and Gore for?

Adelaide supporters: What the hell are we accepting 9, 28 and Gore for?

The very definition of a win-win trade, when everyone is slightly dissatisfied.

credit to your club for not trying to heck us over like most of your fans wanted.
i think it's a pretty fair deal, similarly to the judd deal, you guys will look like winners initially.

 

[Grimoz]

Rumor going around that Freo are right into Kersten, what would we be looking at for him do you think? 2nd Rounder?

 

[sharks33]

Wow... the over reactions over Selwood, off the back of one below par season, is incredible. It wasn't even THAT bad. It just wasn't his brilliant consistent best!

But anyways...


PATRICK MF'N DANGERFIELD!!!!!

May need a toilet break

I wasn't saying Selwood isn't any good or finished but if offered the same deal for him I don't think it would be that bad. 27 battered body for 3 youngsters, not a bad deal. Doesn't mean Selwoods finished.

 

[bulletproof]

Very happy we have Dangerifeld. But the inclusion of Gore was a totally unnecessary and extravagant flourish.

These positions are not mutually exclusive.

 

[Jhye Clark 13]

Same. Plus feel Geelong could have stuck to 9 & 28 only and prevailed in the end.

Well it sounds like Gore wasn't that unhappy about leaving and he'll get more opportunities at the Crows.

 

[Burro]

Perhaps.
Out of contract. Out of favour. Nominates Geelong (only?).
Possible if we push it.

Maybe they want Dawson

@Adelaide_FC: DONE DEAL. We've completed a trade with Geelong http://t.co/QxBFR4Qlwp for Patrick Dangerfield. Welcome home Dean! http://t.co/xEXXAmUsHl
