Oppo Camp Taylor Adams (Traded to Swans 2023)

How's that going for Tay Tay?

Does "that" mean some Pies fans sooking it up, acting like jilted lovers and attacking his character or does it mean getting dropped?

My “that” moment was this morning reading launch monitor numbers thinking “F U SR!”.

Silly boy. Sometimes the grass isn’t greener on the other side.

He still gets paid more though

 

[Bianconeri]

Bad luck Tay. Could he have over rated his own ability? don't blame him for taking the 3 years though

Perhaps he rated his ability perfectly and took the money when he could.

That's what I think. However, not being picked this week would hurt. Nothing wrong with his decision

 

[Bianconeri]

Is there a Treloar thread? The one that got away with an All Australian.

Should have kept Treloar over Adams

Was his three year contract dependent on him being selected for the finals?

Should have kept Treloar over Adams

No-brainer but I don’t think it was an option. Treloar was the one who had his money pushed back in his contract so he was on 900k-plus. Unfortunate for him that the favour he did the club came back to bite. If we pushed Tay out we likely would have had to lose another player or two

 

[Bianconeri]

The context of every individual decision is different. Crisp was told he was going to Collingwood as part of a deal.

Bobby was in and out of the Giants line up before his illness struck and had wanted to get out for at least two years. He was not in the leadership group and playing every week.

How definitely turned his back on Melbourne hoping to get more time as a forward. I'd not blame Melbourne fans for being unhappy when he left.

Bobby was well entrenched in their best 22 before his illness struck.

900k plus is not the important figure as well only save 600k by getting rid of him. The better question is could we have saved the same by getting rid of Adams?

Yeah, switching to a 5 wood loft on your driver was a good move for you, more befitting of your club head speed.

Getting old is hard. 110mph hurts.

Might still be. They might get some injuries.

Really? How many games did he play in the season before he got crook? They certainly weren't fussed about letting him go.

Ditto. Always hacking.

He requested a trade to Essendon. Didn't happen because supposedly they rated him highly enough to be asking for a first round pick.

I don't think we gave up much for him.

 

[sr36]

That was the year before whilst he was contracted. Uncontracted post cancer we got him for a future second rounder.

 

[Bianconeri]

He played 11.

If they weren’t fussed about him leaving they wouldn’t have held him to his contract the year before when the Bombers and us tried to get him.

 

[Scodog10]

I wouldn’t be shutting the door on his season just yet. I think he gets back in if it’s Hawthorn at the expense of McInerney. That’s the way I’d go with it because McInerney looked underdone and the Hawks will monster anyone that’s underdone.

 

[domus]

So, he wasn't a best 22 player at that stage as someone else suggested. That was what I originally thought to be the case.

 

[Anzacday]

Time to move on domus and Bianconeri.
If you can’t, take it to PM please

Putting myself in Tay's shoes, there's no doubt I'd take job security. Especially given he's in the twilight of his career, can't fault him.

People talk about loyalty, family is at the very top of who I'm loyal to. I'm doing my absolute best to provide for them whilst I can.
