    Agreed pick 10 is fair

    Always was....and change possibly.( Swap of picks )

    10 AND 27 is bloody generous.

    Adelaide, gone from Grange grandeur to Goon grumps.

    More than fair for a bloke that didn't figure in their top ten in their B&F!

    Did Lever get any votes in the cows B&F or did they delete his name from the count???

    What about this scenario:

    We pull our offer and only offer pick 10 based on BF performance. Crows chuck the sads. JL announces he is going into the draft a la Luke Ball and will only play for the Dees, otherwise will sit out the season. No other side will take the risk and he comes to us at 10 either way.

    That would be draft tampering. The rules have toughened up on this. More than likely Lever and MFC would be heavily penalised

    When Lever said - 'I will go into the draft' - we gained leverage. When we found out about how the Crows acted when meeting with Mahoney and Viney we gained leverage, with him being disinvited from the B+F we gained leverage (perception in press only - makes it harder for them to stonewall), and when he polled outside the top 10 we gained leverage.

    ND10 and ND45 or a pick swap in the second round. 

    We acted in good faith with offering a fair trade and their petulance should not be rewarded.

    Pity we already showed our hand and said we will offer 10 and 27. Overs in my opinion

    As rpfc has mentioned above, our deal can and should now be altered due to the circumstances that have played out since Jake nominated us.

    Fug 'em.

    Difficult to do when you've already shown you are willing to offer two picks. Easy to do if you'd only offered pick 10 for example. 

    Basic negioation tactics

    I'd now say, we have thought about this, it's now P10 or he goes to the draft. Stop F-ing us around, we mean business.

    After seeing this, who would want to play for or stay at Adelaide? I genuinely hope this little display costs them Rory Sloane next year

    I'd rather be a club of our word. We offered it so we should stick with it. We don't want to stoop to Adelaide's level. All the clubs are watching it too

    If nothing else...we haggle.

    I think you're making it basic mate.

    We're getting fugged about by the Crows and the player who wants to come to our club is being treated like he was some type of cancer.

    They're changing the goal posts so we should too.

    No but it might to their sponsors, influential financial members and Board.

    At the start we were the bad boys for taking the young future star, but it has turned and the media is now lambasting the Crows for their petulance and arrogance and that hurts the brand.

    We have made the offer, we now say we might be able to help you get Francis or another player, for part of the same deal, otherwise the offer remains and won't be increased. 

    The Crows refusal of that offer, given the last few days Crows' behaviour and his non appearance in the top 10 of the B& F will make Lever's price drop and make the Crows look like a non destination club to other players and managers.

    I don't disagree with any of that but it does not alter the fact their supporters will be cheering from the sidelines. I hate this mob with rare intensity.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
