Jenkins would be a bargain at $200k’s in our forward line

2 goals per game

Nobody was remotely close to that in 2019

Get the Crows to pay 70% of his ridiculous contract  

Thanks very much

If that was the case and he is a late pick, it’s a steal and it gives us time to develop ours and recruit  others. Would solve our needed extra key forward for a year or two.

Exactly as long as Adelaide pay the contract they signed off on. 

We need goals. It doesn’t have to look pretty. Goodwin is mad if he doesn’t take this guy if no one else is interested 

 

Surely there’d be interest if Adelaide are willing to pay all of his wage minus $200k a season. I don’t know if I believe that figure, I reckon Adelaide are looking at offloading Jenkins and a significant amount of his salary as well. Or are asking too much pick wise?

Currently we have one established key forward, one developing key forward and a few mid sized makeshift forwards. Unless we have another alternative, given the Crows paying most of his salary and costing a late pick,  he is an easy fix to a problem, while looking  for a longer term solution.

This is exactly what they are doing with Betts at Carlton. Deal is almost done. 

Hope they can do it wit Jenkins

i would expect the sticking point for any prospective suitor is that the crows are prepared to trade him for bupkiss BUT they don't want to pay his wage

Then there is no deal...

Simple.

Since he is contracted they have two options, pay part of his contract or all of it.

You have to pay a portion of his salary, yes but what about the draft pick involved?

2 years left on his 800k contract?

Yes he would be at that price, No way they are going to pay 600k for a player on someone elses list without a decent draft pick in return.

Exactly, that was my point above. Either they’re asking too high a draft pick for him or the report Adelaide are willing to pay all but 200k is false.

Then they are stuck with a Player who wants out. 

Jenkins could be a trade for next week. 

We could get a bargain if we play it right

Not only that, but they want him out.

Yes that’s right. They want him out

On our terms, otherwise “Thankyou, Goodbye...”

So we should be able to negotiate a reasonable $ amount and a reasonable draft pick.

Better than should. We hold all the Cards. 

I will be very peeved if we don’t have a serious crack at this guy for such a small salary. 

$200,000 per year is a rookie wage

Permanent Forward...

Yes, and look I understand the knock on him but if he can kick 40+ goals for us he can sit in the goal square all day long. How many forwards kick 40+ goals. Of coarse the risk is will he perform to that level, but at the right price it's worth the gamble.

He started his career as a 23 year old in 2012, so hopefully that bodes well for his longevity next year as a 31 year old forward, should we pick him up cheap as chips

40 goals is 40 goals. He can kick them from inside the goal square, it doesn’t matter. 

Our best return this year was 22 goals from Tracc!!

we are in no position to be pedantic about whether this guy kicks cheap goals. 

They are all worth 6 points! :)

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
