I guarantee we will be offering a very large contract for him. Whether he wants to join us is another question.

[chook fowler 18,327]

PJ has incriminating photographs.

Lol....

[The Song Formerly Known As 6,479]

we make huge plays for every big game on the market, problem is that every big name on the market never wants to come to us.

Bloke at work is convinced the deal's been done with Geelong for Menzel and Mackie.

[Dee1987 277]

Ha Menzel and Mackie Halarious

[Mach5 4,482]

Bloke at work is convinced the deal's been done with Geelong for Menzel and Mackie.

Because they're both from SA?

He has NFI.

'Bloke at work' is a moron.

Mackie is considering retirement, best case scenario is one more year, and as if Geelong would give up Menzel now that he's finally got himself right after 4 years on the sidelines.

Good player with one year left in his career combined with the most injury prone (albeit very talented) player in the game doesn't get you one of the top 5 players in the comp.

LOL because Adelaide are opening a retirement/rehab centre?

[Mach5 4,482]

^ Mackie got more than one.

Never mind the fact that Geelong can have him for free

[markc 975]

yes but crows can match the offer and force a trade ...

he will then be on x amount of years at x amount of dollars at the crows.

the only way will be a trade , so look at it this way

melbourne offer a trade of pick 5 ( whatever our first pick is) and player , agreeing to pay whatever is on offer from geelong ( or more) , so crows match it knowing they will get a better pick from us

or he stays at crows , Crows hold all the cards as a RFA , the only way I see otherwise if he gets a monster deal which the crows can't match

could another be Veale ( name ?) deal .....

Nobody has matched a rival club's RFA offer and I doubt Adelaide will be able to pay him anywhere near what Geelong/whoever will offer.

[Jaded No More 58,489]

He will sign with Adelaide and I'll actually be happy about that. I like to see stars remain loyal to their club.

Adelaide would be better off with the compo than trading for Mackie and Menzel.

[markc 975]

yes true But wasn't there a article about geelong paying 1.2 for 2 years the 400k for next two so it would be 800 per year average and be the max Geelong would pay

as Crows couldn't match the 1.2 but can match the 800k

I do agree with you that its unlikely but that option is there and a smart club could pull it off if needed, food for thought

Yeah and means Geelong wont get him for free! God that would [censored] me off if they landed him

If I were a recruiter, I wouldn't be keen to trade for a defender who has seen his best years, and a guy who has had FOUR knee reconstructions.

Nek minnit, 'bloke at work' is Damien Barrett.

doesn't make sense

if they trade then not a fa deal then no fa compo

either scenario they get a first rounder

and.....danger would have to agree

trade seems highly unlikely

Spoke to Brendan McCarthy today while he was shopping in Geelong. Known him a while now.

Two things stuck out from our chat.

He thinks the Dees are 18 months off where the Doggies are at.

When I mentioned Dangerfield. He smiled and said "We're certainly having a crack!".

So why did we beat them convincingly in pre season and again 14 weeks ago.

More arse cake expectation management.

Just win you time serving parasites.
