With any luck, Tippett will re-sign and this will be nothing more than speculation. However, Roo's comments from the last few days are getting worrying.
Gorringe + 2nd Rounder or Day/Tippett from GC or Pick 8 + Fringe Lion (Clarke possibly) would be reasonable in my opinion. Key Forwards of Tippett's ability are very rare and I think Adelaide should be compensated accordingly, but having said that- he hasn't lived up to the potential he showed at the end of 2009 as much as we hoped. He is a vital part of Adelaide's structure and "almost" indispensible, but Gold Coast and Brisbane deserve a reasonably fair trade.
