[DJS3X]

Mitch Cleary on Trade Radio saying Marcus Adams wants to go to Collingwood.

No he didn't he said Collingwood is interested

 

[Moonshift]

Sorry, might've misheard.

Still probably a good option for him. Fremantle and West Coast don't need him.

Question to put out there is what does Collingwood have that would work for us?

 

[VitalDread]

Collingwood chasing Marcus Adams

 

[Mattdougie]

Adams is worth nothing

Injury prone and simply wants out of our club that does nothing wrong apparently

3rd rounder at best

 

[Golden_6]

Question to put out there is what does Collingwood have that would work for us?

Absolutely nothing in the way of picks. Probably only worth a pick around pick 35. Earliest pick is 48 which gets pushed back a lot after compo/father sons. Maybe they might have a pick in Tom Langdon leaves, maybe a Fasolo trade might be beneficial to both parties?

He's contracted and we're under no obligation to give him up for nothing. If Collingwood want him, they need to give up more than peanuts, and they have no second rounder (which would've been late anyway).

You've still got a week and a half to string everyone along a bit more, Chad. Don't give up on the fun just yet.

It is interesting as it is hard to see what Collingwood has to offer that would be of value as he is under contract. Has he got one year or two years to run?

 

[MrChristo]

This is why Lloydo is clearly the best in the business.

He brings a higher level of insight than any of us one eyed fans could ever hope to achieve. Watching the dogs every week we are just too darn close to see the forrest for the trees sometimes.

Pretty sure you've had one particular poster trying to tell you repeatedly for the last week that we need goals...

Would love to know the reason/s for Adams wanting out.

Over not being able to get his injuries right and feels a change of club will give him a fresh start

Re-signed for 3 in May 2017.

 

[DJS3X]

ok 2 Years remaining on contract Collingwood will have to come up with something pretty decent then

 

[who_let_the_dogs_out]

Over not being able to get his injuries right and feels a change of club will give him a fresh start

It would appear those are his reasons but why back out of a contract 1 year in?

Highly doubt Collingwood's medicos could fare better than Zimmerman and Landsberger.

Well Zimmerman and Landsberger are Doctors but get your point. And he hasn't said he wants to go to Collingwood there was just a report Collingwood are interested in him

Any players we could look at poaching from them?

Collingwood have struggled just as much as us to keep their players fit.

 

[True Dog]

Does Collingwoods interest in Adams mean they missed out on May?

Me specifically?

 

[_M_16_]

Collingwood have struggled just as much as us to keep their players fit.

Apparently one of the listed reasons is that he is over his injuries/unhappy with some the injury treatment. Which is a pretty weak excuse as injuries happen any club, so if he wanted to go to Collingwood when they have a long list of leg and soft tissue injuries, would seem strange to go somewhere with the same issues. Either there is more to it, or he is glory hunting (can't be stuffed going through the motions of a rebuild)

 

[ossie_21]

Does Collingwoods interest in Adams mean they missed out on May?

More like doing things properly & just keeping their options open in case May doesn't end up joining them.
Compare that to us & Wingard, we don't appear to have a backup option to chase (at least not publicly, that could be the only difference)

 

[footyfan000001]

Sick of Adams. Go do your bicep curls at the Holden Centre. Enjoy.

 

[TimlinOfficial]

Excluding Dale and Trengove (as a ruck, rather than KPD), our five other key position backmen have played 9, 48, 49, 27 and 18 games.

Adams is a slight outlier due to age and being slightly made of biscuits...

If you're including Dale, I think you have to include Wood too, considering he took the biggest oppo fwd at times this year

 

[TedDougChris]

Yeah, was just trying to highlight how young and inexperienced our KPD stocks are. There is a reason (well, several actually) while Morris is so valuable to us.

If any other club had that KPD options, they’d be fantastically happy.....
