Mitchell imo is ahead of zac Jones and Brandon Jack, the swans clearly think he needs to work on an area of his game and he is developing that in the seconds

Well cameron fits the profile for that small article in the herald sun. With the money we gain from

Clark and frawley which seems likely.. We'd have around 1.2mil to 1.3mil to play with. He'd be worth every cent for around that amount

Whats Whitfields status? He is exactly what we need in our midfield.

Whitfield signed a long term deal last year I believe

your right. Toumpas is being taught. defence, composure, attitude, mental toughness, all the things a talented skilled kid has had easier than many, & maybe hasn't learnt Yet.

but you wouldn't trade him for Dangerman?

Yes, i would trade him for Dangerfield...but i don't think Adelaide would.

Bit of a long shot but money talks

As a midfielder he probably is, but neither of those players get significant time in the midfield. Zac Jones has been playing as a small defender/ tagger and Brandon Jack has been playing as a forward (and he has bucket loads of pace).

Do you think we would need to offer all of that? and how many years?

because he is still young, and so far, he hasn't produced a form like a buddy (10 mil 9 years?)

or ablett 9 mi for 5 years apparently.

Hasn't roos implied he doesn't really run with paying one player a large amount?

anyway, i was thinking 3-3.5 mil for 4 years isnt a bad deal.

4.8 mil for 4 years is a lot for a kid whose played some good footy, but not a superstar as yet.

I reckon it'd have to be a 5mil over 5 years type deal... We did pay Clark $800k and to be honest he had never set the world on fire apart from maybe one season. I wouldn't think Cameron 1mil a year would be overs he is the best young forward we've seen in awhile. Imagine him and hogan together upfront

yeh thats true, lol i forgot about the clark deal.

your right though, what he and hogan could be would be worth it.

it'd be a powerful forward line.

might allow pedersen to go back and be that hard bodied contested backman.
jeremy mighty be able to come up forward again or swing.

Add one more classy mid e.g. perhaps sheil ( which i personally see as unlikely) and we could be that much better next season.

Cameron would be brilliant to have, but another solid tall forward (even just an up and comer like Levi Casboult) would be a very handy addition.

Another classy young mid would also be great but I think the real improvement will come with adding a few hard working, hard running types that lift the standard of the bottom six players in the team. You're only as good as your bottom six.

In fairness to Jones and Jack, Mitchell would be ahead of most blokes in the league.

Kid is a hell of a talent, just an absolute ball magnet. He'd automatically be our second best player behind Jones.

It's Patton.

Any inside info on this ? Cameron would be a dream, 17 other clubs would want him so I'm not sure if we'd be his first priority. If it is Patton then we pay him half of what we pay cameron and use the other half on another young mid.. Win win

that wasn't the question, the question was would you let him go for a Dangerman deal. Adelaide don't want to lose anything, as we all don't.

But a deal of P-4 + Toumpas might tempt them if Danger wanted to come to Vic.

#ps I'm not in a hurry to see the back of the Toump, just trying to see what we would be prepared to do for a player such as Dangerfield, or similar.

It could just as likely be Treloar or Shiel, but would love Cameron. Imagine Cameron, Hogan and Dawes as third string. JKH, Salem and Kent at their feet. I like it. I like it a lot. We need to improve that midfield though.

EDIT. I'd be happy enough with Patton, but obviously would prefer Cameron. Also, I'm assuming that Hogan would have to ruck in that system? Currently, Pederson does, but Dawes won't want to and isn't suited to it.

Now that is something I could get used to, so long as we are able to consistent and effective 50 entries.

That would tempt them, South Australian's rated Toumpas VERY highly.

I actually think that is a good deal for Adelaide. Toumpas will be a quality AFL player.

As good as Dangerfield is, if he wanted out, that is a good deal.

Are you for real?

I didnt see the post on the previous page, so calm your [censored] champ

Anyway...

Back on topic, I hope it is Jeremy Cameron and if we offer him 1 million a year it will be worth every cent

That would be a dream.

A dream for him - $1m a season in his fourth season ? That's Tom Scully foolishness.

He will come with a large price tag - but $1M per season. hmmmm

It'd be funny if Cameron did change clubs, seeing as his home town of Dartmoor only this year adopted the Giants' colours and nickname. Go the Darty Demons!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
