Sydney will provide an offer that is well within the reach of what adelaide should accept.........we have to remember "nothing" is what they get if they dont accept our offer
that is not acceptable and if I was an Adelaide fan I would say the AFC are idiots to not accept the first round pick min."be tough, only when it gets tough"

Not what the Crows fans are saying on Bigfooty. Apparently it's our first round pick PLUS Rohan or similar. Gee, Tippett must be as good as Lockett it would seem!
In all honesty, Crows will be short changed if they accept our first pick but we don't have anything else to offer unless one of our young guns wants to go home to Melbourne or Footscray for one of their high draft picks. Does't seem any of our young guns have stuck up their hand to say I'll go back to Melbourne to break the dead lock for you.
So I think Adelaide will have to accept our first pick but be very unhappy to do so and we'll morally owe them a favour in future. Best not to draft any SA players for a few years methinks!Comment

they will want to draft some of ours next year on the hammer me thinks !!"be tough, only when it gets tough"

First, I feel 95% sure that we could pick up Tippett in the ND with our pick 23, as no one would risk taking an uncooperative player in lieu of good prospect that is pleased to be with their club (Luke Ball situation).
From a list management perspective, the Swans would like to get Tippett plus at least one draftee that we rate as having a fairly good chance of being a 200 game player. I don't know what number in the draft that equates to. Let's say around pick 25 or better. The problem is that we are not willing to give up any premiership player, plus Rowan, McGlynn and perhaps even Everett. Additionally, we are probably not willing to part will around a half dozen of our young recent draft picks playing in the reserves. So that doesn't leave much to trade with. I figure around 6 players, with the most likely being White, TDL and Meredith.
I think we would be willing to give Adelaide whatever we can get in picks, upgrades of picks, and these fringe players, so long as we still had something like a top 25 pick at the end. I don't know if it can be done. Maybe chances will improve once the compo picks are announced.
For example, if we could trade Meredith, TDL and our pick 42 for a pick in the mid 20s, we might be willing to give Adelaide pick 23 + White. I think all the parties would be content (maybe not happy) with this sort of outcome. Whether something like this can be put together is anyone's guess. It's hard to say who will crack if it can't be done, but we are one's in the driver's seat.Comment

White, Meredith and TDL have almost no value as trades and no club would want to use three of their vacant spots on them.
Either the Crows accept unders in the form of pick 23 or they make stand for the future and send Tippett to the PSD where I doubt he'll last until our pick.Comment

Agree. The problem is that the players we are willing to give up, nobody wants. But I do feel we would almost certainly get him if he opted for the ND. As for the PSD, perhaps it's around 50-50.
I still think all 3 above mentioned players could make the 22 at Port if given the chance.Comment

This is acceptable and pleasing.Comment

A Facebook feed (AFL Trade Rumours) says the deal's done - Jesse + first rounder. I'm good with that if it's true....Comment
-
The page is AFL Draft News, Trade News and Gossip. They put up some silly rumors etc but generally have gotten it right when breaking news of deals actually done.
But I don't guarantee any of it yet...

It may not be all that bad for Adelaide, with the new ruck rule, Jesse could find himself a place in the ruck, good leap, not much at out bodying opposition, with the rucks seperated, he could fit the mould, as well as being very mobile and a good kickYou can't argue with a sick mind - Joe WalshComment

- RWO Forum Rules (PLEASE READ FIRST)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your posts may be deleted, without warning or notification at moderator discretion, for breach of any of the RWO rules set out below. If you have any questions or concerns about post/thread removal, please feel free to PM a moderator or Email us at [email protected]
Do not post your queries on the main boards. Such posts WILL be removed, without further explanation.
Constant breaches of the rules will result in your access to RWO being reduced as the Moderator / Administrator group see fit. RWO uses the vBulletin Infraction System to deal with breaches of the RWO rules. All Infractions have an expiry date. Such an expiry date may be as short as 10 days or as long as 6 months. Multiple infractions, depending on the number of points a member accumulates, WILL result in temporary bans from the site and CAN result in a permanent ban. Please note that some Infractions have an expiry date of "Never" and WILL result in the RWO member being banned from the site immediately.
1) Signatures / Avatars
Keep signatures under 4 lines of standard sized fonts (if you must use large fonts, use just one line) as a courtesy to all users who read the forums.
Do not use signatures / avatars as an opportunity to make jibes at other forum members. This will be considered to be sniping (refer Rule 6 below). You may not refer to another RWO forum member, or quote anything they have written, without permission from that member. Using an anonymous tag does not make it acceptable. If quotes are not removed, we reserve the right to remove them, without notification. If in doubt as to whether something is acceptable or not, don't use it!
2) Spamming
Advertising for personal commercial purposes is NOT permitted. Placing links to sites that other users may find of interest / personal websites is acceptable within reason (ie constantly posting links will be frowned upon).
3) Deliberately avoiding the RWO swear filter
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. A swear filter is in place to mask offensive words and phrases. This swear filter contains offensive words and variant spellings of offensive words to stop you from deliberately avoiding the swear filter. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter through alternate spelling of offensive words. Do not attempt to avoid the swear filter by devising systems to fool the swear filter in its recognition of offensive words.
4) Inappropriate Language / Excessive swearing
RWO is a site that is accessible by Swans supporters of all ages and walks of life. Moderators will let some minor cases through. Anything deemed to be of poor taste or of an offensive nature may be removed at moderator discretion. Consider all members when posting; what you think is funny, not all members will feel the same way.
5) Trolling / Baiting
Deliberately posting on threads in an attempt to stir / bait other RWO users will not be tolerated.
6) Flaming / Sniping / Abuse / Insulting other members
If you have to have a go at someone personally, take it off the boards. Everyone else doesn't need to see your hissy fits. Remember, "Play the ball, not the man". This includes spouses or partners. If you don''t like a post, don't flame, snipe, abuse or insult in response - it makes the job of moderation much harder. Report the post through the forum reporting mechanism (click on the Triangle with the exclamation mark) and let the Moderator / Administrator group deal with it.
7) Legal issuesa) The Moderator / Administrator group will keep a very close eye on threads discussing rumours or anything that could be potentially libellous. Moderators and Administrators are not interested in the chance of legal action regardless of how small - if deemed that there is ANY threat to RWO potentially, we will come down hard on it.
b) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and the potential legal implications, posting of complete articles is NOT permitted. If necessary, post a link to the article. Where appropriate, you may quote sections of the article to aid in discussion.
c) Due to potential issues of copyright infringement and potential legal implications, posting of links to "live streaming (of AFL games)" and "AFL content" sites that are not AFL endorsed is NOT permitted. Posts with such links will be removed immediately and infraction points will be issued.
d) Freedom of speech does NOT = freedom to slander
8) Racial / Sexual Discrimination / Villification
It is not acceptable for members to engage in racial and/or sexual discrimination / villification. It is not acceptable for members to use terminology in describing race or gender in a derogatory manner. Discussing and disputing the views and opinions of other posters is acceptable. Personally vilifying or abusing others for having certain characteristics, or being a member of a certain group (or because you think they're a member of a certain group), is not. This rule shall apply to any post attacking race, skin colour, ethnic background, gender and sexuality.
