and our opponents will tag him out of the game like the grand final.

Hunt and Hibbs will run riot, perfect.

He was a Restricted Free Agent and Adelaide said they’d match the Cats offer which forced Cats to trade picks. 

Lever is actually easier because as an in contracted player he can just walk and Crows can’t stop him. He can use Luke Ball trick. Put a ridiculous price on his head and say he’ll only take one year at any other Club and then go in the draft again. No Club would touch him and he goes to Dees and Crows get nothing. He goes to us and then negotiates a 5 year deal or whatever and the first year price is absorbed into the contract. Ultimately that is why Crows will have to be reasonable. Im sure I t won’t get to that. Also sure Lever won’t want to leave that way unless absolutely forced. 

Sure, except the AFLs trade integrity guy has to sign off on any player movements as being fair and reasonable, which that isn't. He's knocked back deals before.

If Adelaide won't budge on 2 first rounders there is a solution if Richmond are interested. We could swap our top 3 picks 10, 27 & 45  (draft value 2445 pts) for Richmonds 15, 17 & 53 (draft value 2370 pts). We give the 2 first rounders to Adelaide and keep the slightly downgraded 3rd rounder. Richmond end up in the top 10 of draft and better trade value overall.

Thoughts?

If we give up two 1st round draft picks for Lever, I'd be [censored], I'll renew my membership still, but the club would be pushing my limits. ?

Being announced on 7 News Adelaide today maybe?

 

 

 

Lever is believed to have informed the Crows of his wish on Tuesday and is certain to nominate Melbourne as his preferred destination.

jake niall confirms he's requesting a trade: https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/jake-lever-officially-tells-adelaide-that-he-wants-to-be-traded-to-victorianbased-afl-club/news-story/18ed1449aba092ba0cc8661635f295cc

 


And by Victorian he means a Melbourne club.

And by a Melbourne club, he means us.

:lol:

Just say Melbourne and be done with it.

Hmmm. Would it be funny if I threw in the old, he's not coming to us now joke?

Apparently they released this statement now because they didn't want everyone to hear it first from Lever's mouth. Imagine if you tune into Adelaide 7 news and hear him say i wanna go to the Dee's

It'd be a 9 News exclusive if it was Collingwood


A sneak peek of the interview - sounds like BT:

 

ADELAIDE defender Jake Lever has requested a trade to a Victorian club. 

Crows head of football Brett Burton said the club was extremely disappointed in Lever's decision and would consider all its options.

Lever has reportedly told Channel Seven that he wants to join Melbourne, confirming months of speculation.

He looks a tad P-ssed off

 

Lever deal at Melbourne said to be worth at least $800,000 a season. Some adamant it's for $850,000 a season

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
