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.

Balic for pick 64 is more than fair.

Far less than what he was being offered at other clubs... and he’s absolutely worth that

Before his extension. Now about 850k

I can 100% tell you that jakes offer does not make him the highest paid player at the club. Jesse hogan is our highest paid player, Nathan jones not far behind both ahead of our offer for lever.

God I hope he stays. I just can’t see how any trade deal doesn’t result in a net loss for ya based on watts value vs trade value

If Sloane isn’t signed by round 10 next year watch the whole club go into meltdown. They are just handling this so poorly

I think levers manager basically said he might well have stayed if the first offer wasn’t an absolute joke. They’ve totally screwed this up

And let’s be real, it won’t be two first rounders. They deal will get done

Word before the draft was homesickness was a big concern and I’ve heard it is one of the major factors now. I think he needs to head home

My take away from the last few days is that the crows low balled jake big time with the first offer, he cracked it and put himself out there and by the time the crows came back with a more reasonable offer he’d decided to leave. It sounds like the infighting from half time at the grand final hasn’t stopped. If you want to blame someone look at your key forwards and captain who looked totally shell shocked on the big stage. Lever was very solid despite being tagged and had nothing to do with the crows losing the gane

Time to teach the crows a lesson. Pick 10 only is on the table, accept it or we take him in the draft.

I would be horrified if the Melbourne footy club handled a situation like this with as little class and as much bitterness as the crows have. I view it as being extremely unprofessional. You’d have to think Bryce Gibbs would think twice about going there if this is how they treat their players.

Dan Hannebery would be handy if he wants to come on board

Oh, he has a good track record. Interesting indeed

Are we apparently landing a big fish mid?

Armatige is definitely on the trade table. The others aren’t from what seems to be getting around

definitely rance. The thing most don’t seem to realise is rance very rarely takes the number one forward.

Nah just throwing an idea out there
