Grolm37 said:well if you have a look through the threads basically not one WCE suppoter ( ok maybe 1 or 2) have put forward a decent/realistic player - every time a Adelaide fan puts forward a name they get the same "he's our first 22 and steinglein would be in our top 6 midfield etc etc) now bearing that in mind - it seems any player that is a realistic trade for stenglein is loved muchly by the WCE fans (and rightly so) which only leads me to believe that if a player is involved then it is going to disappoint quite a few people on this board
i dont think we need to add to the rumours on this board ( or all the others) but from the mail that i have heard ( and i think quite a few Adelaide fans), WCE are going to part comany with a highish profile player as Craig is desperate to fill a gap left by Stenglien and therefore is desperate to fill it with experience (but not an old bugger )
all i can say is i cant wait till trade week ends so we can see how it pans out
I think the problem is there is not a great deal that either clubs want- both teams are fairly similar in having pretty good midfielders and rather a lack of kpp depth, which makes a third party trade far more likely.
Of players in our best 22, I think there is some chance (in fact, quite a good chance, that we will part company with the likes of Morrison, Rowan Jones or Wooden, or perhaps even Wirrpunda. From outside the 22, Chambers or Johnson are the most likely trade bait. Not sure Adelaide would want any of those.
Personally, I think the most likely out come is a 3 way trade- Morrison + WC 2nd rounder to a victorian team, something from them to Adelaide. My gut feeling is a pick in the #13-#20 range.
