He just had a baby. He and his wife are both from SA. It’s probably a genuine request to be closer to family. 
Not everything is a [censored] conspiracy against the club for goodness sake! 

North wants Viney, and Todd has stepped away from their team for these negotiations. Viney may or may not want out.

Petracca is upset at the direction the club is going in, and wants out or at least big change.

ANB wants to leave with two years on his deal, cites family reasons.

All break within a week of the club exiting the finals race. But there's nothing sinister at all? Just three of our five club leaders wanting out? Think critically and be uncomfortable.

We've had one player ask to go home in about five years before this year.

    There is zero evidence that either Viney or Petracca want out.  You're jumping at shadows.

    Not sure we’ll get much in return for him sadly. Love Nibbler 

    Not sure about that...he's highly valued around football circles.

    Astonished at this. Only 2 years left and the excuse is family reasons? I take that back if family reasons mean someone is gravely ill, but for a new baby? Give me a break, it’s Adelaide for God’s sake

    You have to seriously have your head in the sand if you believe this.. Thats two of, if not our biggest professionals, who have said they'd like to get out, join the dots.

    Adelaide is a limited market for value.

    ANB plays a tough role and is under rated IMO.

    He will be very hard to replace. Straight swap for Houston if ANB really wants out.

    Houston is a good player but does not play the high pressure role that ANB plays.

    Whilst I love Nibbler and he is a good role player.  He is a 28yo who is at his trade value peak.

    This is a good chance to get as good a deal as we would ever get for him.  No being nice because he is a premiership player.  Get what he is worth, will likely be top 2-3 in the Bluey this year too.

    Whilst we won't get the level Nibbler is atm, his position can be taught to others, he isn't a freakish talent.  Hard work is what made him what he is.

    It’s none of my business, and I could be wrong but perhaps the baby has an illness or maybe mum and dad need familial help otherwise? Having been there and not had help, flying to Adelaide isn’t the same as having someone 30 mins away.

    Ah Ffs. What the bloody hell is going on?! Everyday another of our players is reported to want out. 
    Nibbler is one of our leaders and can cover the ground like very few others can. Invaluable type of player in the modern game.

    Nibbler made the request several weeks ago according to the report.  

    It's your timing (amongst other things) that is off.

    So anyone still in denial about Trac? 
     

    Club is imploding before our very eyes. 

    I laughed at this due the consistency of message in this post, other posts and on all threads. 
     

    Gawndy mate. You are imploding!

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
