ugh. Have a cry.

The “whatever it takes” athletic integrity centre

Macca has done more one on one Work with jack than probably anyone in his professional career to date, he’s the absolute best person to make the call

May be a case of the truth hurts. If Jack Watts trained like Nathan Jones and jack Viney he’d be consistently all Australian. He is loaded with talent but isn’t consistent enough. That consistency begins at training

Hard to tell until after the draft. Balic is someone who with a strong pre season might push for selection

This kid is 100% worth it. He’s a proven performer and a leader who at 21 should be an A grader and around the mark of all Australian for us for a decade. Draft picks are always a bit of a gamble and we are the only ones who walk away from this deal with proven value.

I don’t mind the deal. Effectively 10,12 and a fourth rounder for lever ( a proven nearly all Australian standard defender at 21) pick 35 and probably around 50. Given all draft picks carry risk I don’t think it’s correct to assume they’ll be a star. I think this is very much a win-win deal

The chances of him staying just went up I reckon.

I don’t mind the deal for two picks if we get one back. Not really a believer in the super draft idea.

That’s a very good deal if we can swing that.

I’d rather 6 Vineys. In fact I’d rather 4 Vineys than 3 and 3 jacks

He’s done a medical and the giants retaining him depends on the results. He certainly won’t be their number 1 ruck if he isn’t in top shape but he might still be a super handy backup/ coach

bit of word around clubs may consider Mumford as a playing assistant/ ruck depth next year. Given Spencer is off our list now I don’t think it’d be the worst idea ever

On top of aggressively chasing a contracted Bryce Gibbs, Steven Motlop and others. Tex has a loose grasp of reality. Especially considering he’s on a mint himself

The crows need to have a talk to tex because this is getting stupid. The crows haven’t achieved anything yet and we are improving consistently every year and loaded with top end talent. If we don’t overtake the crows in 2018 we definitely will in 2019 jake will have just as much chance if a flag with us in the next three years as at the crows. Tex has made himself look silly

There is no way hibberd and Oliver aren’t one and two.

Is sharrod Wellingham worth a look a delisted free agent?

Is t just me or does it seem like the crows as a club have totally lost the plot?

The flow in effect poses a potential risk, if indeed hogan and watts did leave we suddenly look a bit less of an option for tmac, petracca and co who are out of contract next year and will no doubt draw attention

If hogan goes ( I highly doubt he will) it’s time to break out the war chest and put some good picks in front of the suns and lynch

Yep. I think it’s BS but I’d want their 2017 first rounder, 2018 first rounder and balic. Hogan unlike lever is contracted and qualitykey forwards have a lot more trade value perhaps the two picks, balic and Tabenar for hogan and pick 27

Jay clark claiming Jesse met with Nat Fyfe on Tuesday

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

Yeah, he slid quite a long way from where he was expected to drafted if I remember correctly

Just cracked it over the grand final loss and the whole club seems to have lost the plot. You saw in texs speech after the game that he isn’t a great loser.
