How is this thread hanging around? Adcock has been awful for a few years now. He is one of Brisbane fans' main whipping boys.

F##k no! Anyone saying yes obviously hasn't watched him over the past 2 years in particular this season, was shocked he is only 29, plays like a 35 year old. He has been a servicable player through his career at best..

Delete this thread its embarrassing

has put on an absolute clinic at the gabba today.

looks far from done.

I was against him at the start but with Cross gone I would take him. Just watching him break from the half back take about 4 bounces and drill a long goal.

Maybe if he came on board he could release Salem into the midfield. Would add leadership and experience in our back half.

Still not sold, but as you say Dazzle, without Cross it would make more sense.

Not the worst and we need some experience. Interesting to see who we target.

Why get rid of Cross and then get Adcock. Would be a real insult to Daniel Cross. I know that they said to Cross that it's time to back the next generation in, so recruiting another veteran would be bonkers.

Cross is 2 years older than Adcock

Half the player though. Very patchy form, regularly disappears from entire games throughout the season.

As soon as I saw the questionable Cross delisting, I had a feeling Adcock would come into play. We're a leaderless team on-field and Roos hopes for Cross to remain at the club in a development role, but ultimately you can't carry Cross AND Adcock on your senior list.

Get Adcock in for nothing, keep Cross around at training developing our kids and setting the standards, it's a win-win. Plus, we get the leadership of Brisbane's former captain who will be desperate to prove Brisbane wrong.

Its a YES from me. Adcock provides leadership, skills, toughness, a will to prove the Lions wrong and would come for free.

Some seem to be getting a bit overwhelmed with Adcock playing a good last game.

He's been below average this season and averaging just 12 disposals. I don't care how cheap he comes, if we want to get out of the position we're in we have to aim higher than Adcock.

You wouldn't take him in the twos to help Casey? If the club had any intention of taking the risk on Adcock (who will cost us nothing), they'd rightfully let Cross go as you can't carry two players of this sort on a senior list.

Why would we pick someone up and let them take up a spot on our list with the intention of playing them at Casey?

If it's for depth when we're players down I still think we could do better. He offered very little this season.

Much prefer Nathan Wilson, Zac Williams, Curtly Hampton, Trent McKenzie, Paul Seedsman, Aaron Mullett, Tom Cutler, etc.

I haven't seen enough of him this year to comment. But if we did pick him up to play on the back flank shouldn't we keep Salem on the other. Who's our other options to play there?

No.

Rubbish.

Next?

I don't know much about Jed but I'm not sure how you can refer to any former club captain who has had 21 possessions, kicked 4.2 and was nominated as BOG in his most recent game as rubbish.

Then don't comment if you don't know much about your mate 'Jed'...he's cooked.

A yes from me. Would be a good presence in our backline and is a leader.

Don't be a disrespectful [censored] to a player who has had a great career. He might not offer us a lot going forward but he's obviously been better than you've given him credit for.

And just quietly, I don't think many of our players would be capable of getting those stats in local footy, forget AFL footy.

Blease kicked 5 goals in a game once.....

Jed performed at a level for a period of time that was good enough to see him made club captain. I think he has Bleasey covered.

But so many MFC players are exceeding performances like this... once every 2 years.
