im not sure what you are trying to say here. we aint talking about the crows getting draft picks for tippett or letting him go.
the realistic way gold coast will get him is by claiming him as one of their (probable) 10 uncontracted players. They will attempt to lure the young lad home with incentives like family/friends, lifestyle and quite probably bigger bucks (assuming they have salary cap relief as currently mooted). its almost certain tippett will structure his contract to finish at the time gold coast enter to allow him maximum freedom and dollars in whatever contract he chooses.
its a real risk that he will be lured home. people trying to find 'meaning' in his cliched qoutes on the issue now are just wasting their time
The way I understand it, they won't be able to just rip 10 uncontracted players out of the existing playing lists.
They will trade for the existing players, using the high draft picks which they are being gifted (the first 5 picks, 10 in the first 30). Of course, having those high draft picks gives them a fair bit of clout if the player DOES want out and the club decides to play hard-ball.
