We've known it for a long time, imagine being forced to deal with Collingwood.

Heath Shaw, good player with bad attitude, is worth a late-mid first round pick at best. With no other suitors that could slip to early second round pick.

Taylor Adams is worth pick 2-5. Given all sides in that range would hand over their picks for him.

Yet the scum are adamant it's a straight swap. And they get their zealots in the media to push this diarrhea into the paper.

GWS should say, keep Shaw. We'll give Adams to Melbourne, Bulldogs or Saints. I'm sure a deal can be done.

Womt happenn

Adams will be a Pie, Shaw will be a Giants.

End of story.

But i do get what you mean.

I agree.

Although it is a little unusual (and interesting) that Adams hasn't nominated a preferred club yet...

Who cares who was nominated as preferred club. Pick 2 > Shaw.

Pick 2 for Adams and pick 9

Offer Buntine and Bugg to Collingwood.

"Don't deal with Collingwood!"

I look forward one Queen's Birthday to dealing with them comprehensively.

Don't think it would happen but I agree with your sentiment. The fact that he hasn't nominated a preferred club is what makes it interesting.

Although I would go even harder to get both Adams and Buntine for 2 and a sweetener if required.

No harm in trying to deal with a team.

You are never forced to make the trade.

Heath Shaw for Taylor Adams is such an outrageously unbalanced deal if I were a list manager I'd be insulted if it was even suggested to me.

Adams may well be better than Shaw in 2014, and will certainly be better for most of the next ten years.

If that deal went through there would have to be an AFL investigation because clearly there would have been other inducements at play.

With Eddy's continued financial support [ ta ] & the AFL' s fixturing [ ta ] !

Only if youve got a mining boom !
