And Bob is my uncle!

Goodness me, is Dangerfield a Demon yet? I can't keep opening this thread. Just cut out the middle man, give Adelaide 2, 23, Trengove and Toumpas for Dangerfield, Lyons and 10, then hurl 3 and 10 to Collingwood for Beams and 48, then 48 to GWS for Frost, Clark on his bike for Lumumba and 55, head to the draft with 55 and change for Stretch and Jetta. Robert's your uncle, Franny's your aunt.

its not that hard really is it

Why the silly buggers are stuffing around is anyone's guess

Roos would approve me thinks

Well, Geelong have an hour left to do the same!

Just spoke to Paddy. Said, he'll only sign if this thread reaches 150 pages. Wanted to test the true passion of supporters before committing to the club.

Acquire Dangerfield this year via trade, acquire another (Sloane or Walker) next year via Free Agency, then finals here we come!

Methinks Tex might seek greener pastures if the Crows stink it up next year under their new hard-ass coach.

Adelaide didn't show much loyalty to his best mate last year, so why should Tex show much loyalty to them?

Don't think the Crows will stink it up they are a decent side and lost a fair few close games this season, out of the 4 who were in contention for the final spot in the 8, without seeing the draw for 2015 I would rate them from 1 - 4 with 1 being the best chance

1. Crows - still a decent midfield Tex on his 2nd year back from a knee recon, Talia is a jet (Gysberts FMD), Brad Crouch for mine is going to be an elite midfielder and I rate Walsh very highly as a coach

2. Suns - all depends on the coach because the right coach will do wonders with this list, O'Meara's knees are a concern for 2015 but with a fit Ablett and Dixon and Lynch continuing to improve and Fortress Metricon they will be pushing big time for the 8

3 Meth Coast - will win the 9-10 games as the front runners they are against mediocre opposition but their midfield will continue to get pushed around by the Top 6 sides in the comp, will be there or thereabouts and given a good run with injury could sneak in, Glass and Cox are huge outs

4. Pies - aging stars quality players wanting out Levi Greenwood being talked up as a trading coup my how things have changed another year of the rebuild next year and the blowtorch is going to be well and truly scorching Buckleys ar$e next season

Stop being so logical. I want to pin my hopes on everyone leaving that club in an exodus.

Why is this thread still open and what news about this none existing trade has made it reach to 106 pages.

Because a lack of information doesn't prohibit people from discussing it. How many threads do you see around here that are actually locked?

Their new coach reminds me of Neeld.

Good luck with that AFC.

Hawthorn won a premiership in 2013 despite the speculation about Buddy's future in his free agent season but Walsh will really be up against it next year if all three of Adelaide's FA's stay at the club and delay their final decisions untiI the end of the season.

With the notable exception above, these sagas tend to be destabilising because they are continually brought up when the team and players aren't doing well so if he has three players under the spotlight, it will really test a novice coach.

Although I remain highly sceptical about our ability to prise Dangerfield away from the Crows, I think this is something they will have to think long and hard about in the unlikely event that Danger indicates he wants to leave. That, together with the fact they will not get better compensated if he goes next year.

Just on that WJ, out of the 3 OOC stars at the crows (Sloane, Danger & Tex) I believe Danger & Tex are the two able to leave under FA, albeit probably restricted. All 3 could get offers of $800k plus in today's environment of expanding salary caps & surely they can't afford them all without the players accepting taking less each to all stay.

The one we don't talk about much here is Tex, yet after the Tippett saga at the crows, there was all this talk about Tex being the first crow to be locked up to a really long term big contract. But this never happened!!!

Anyone got any 'whispers' as to why?

It was over a year ago now they wanted to lock him up long term & if I was them I'd be just as worried about the situation as Danger.

Here's one of several articles stating they were going to keep him off the market & he's obviously been knocking back extending for a long time now.
