Yes. It's been a tough day for us.

Pick 39 for Jordon. Feels about correct weight for McAdam.

Either for him or Fullarton.

Yep, our two late second round picks get the Fullarton and McAdam deals done.

Leaves us with 2 first rounds and after Grundy deal we should have 2 picks inside 30.  I reckon we will bundle up picks to improve our draft order taking 3 top 20ish picks and Brown.  I think if Harmes goes it will be more about draft position than a later pick.

Bris will trade Fullerton for a pack of chips

Overs for Fullarton based on output to date.

I don’t want to come across as greedy but I’m expecting Shane to kick something close to 23 goals in his first 3 game for Melbourne, just like uncle Adrian did in 1993 for North.

[Travy14 2,032]

Paddy Dow expected to go for a future 4th rounder. 

23yo 3rd round selection. 

Bit of an insite into the value of McAdam, God I hope we don't give up a second rounder.

Dow for a future 4th round - like pick 70 in 2024 draft.  Blues should be just delisting him.

I think it's so he definitely gets to his club of choice, but yeh Carlton won't be using that pick

[Travy14 2,032]

Pick 46 for McAdam it is then

Or to the PSD, not that we normally operate that way, but if Adelaide are really cracking the sads we won't trade a contacted Petty to them just because they want him, then they must forget they have no leverage with the uncontracted McAdam

Can someone point me to where I find the AFL rules that govern drafting, free agency, compensation picks, academy etc etc.

I have always found it hard to find this stuff on the AFL website and I like to understand what I am reading.

I think it is the Sheldon in me. ( Not the Carlton player ).

Maybe you would need a psychoanalyst, and some sort of functional PET CT of the cerebrum of Gil (or of Dill) - they seem to dream these things up as they go along.

[spirit of norm smith 16,615]

Crows.
Pick 46 for McAdam.
That’s the deal. 

[buck_nekkid 6,068]

Can see a future 2nd (36ish) getting it done.

[Demonsterative 3,021]

It’s rare a player requests a move to a club and does not get to their destination. Play hard Crows and see how that works for you now and in the future.

Id love us just to say no thanks haha but someone sees something in him

Looked at his highlights again 

A little underwhelming seems also to go missing for periods during games

Anyway Im sure the club knows better

You saw ‘highlights’ where he went missing?

Went and read the Adelaide BF board to see the reactions when this news first came out. In general, most see him as best 22, "a shame to lose him" and and as someone who "changes their forward line dynamic significantly". In the context of Adelaide I don't know exactly what that means (less Walker centric? Takes a defender away from Rankine?) but probably the best way I can describe this is if we were to lose Melksham (3 years ago), or maybe from today's team, a Sparrow or a Bowey. Good player, not a game changer. 

They also said he has a strange habit of pretending he's injured (or emphasising bad knocks), particularly after he does something bad (e.g. missing a shot for goal). Weird trait but several of them mentioned it unprompted by each other...

According to gettable on Trade Radio, we have offered a future second rounder for McAdam.
