Think with Schoenberg out for the year, they needed to sign Crouch to cover that, and he obviously was wanting a two year deal.

3 year deal. Seeking trade to a Melbourne based club.

Wonder if he would consider Geelong or strictly Melbourne.

Do other clubs realise he is 28 already?

I think a first round pick will get the job done

A swap with Grundy perhaps....

Interesting decision by McAdam though.

28, lots of injuries and Adelaide stood by him, just as the fog starts to lift over the club he's on the move when he should be putting his hand up to be the small forward that stays at home. Rankine will work through the midfield more, Rachele will tag in when Rankine drops out of there, McAdam could make a spot his if he wanted and originally from WA so not the go home factor. Melbourne must be offering some coin to have him replace Melksham.

Adelaide said to be chasing Chol from the Suns. Has ability but is as lazy as ****

That will spell the end of Himmelberg I’d suggest.

Behind Walker, Thilthorpe, Fogarty and dueling with Gollant I guess.

Interesting chasing him.

Has the hardest hands in the game. Clunks the occasional mark but a high % of balls bounce off his hands.

Kicked 40 odd last year in a poor side which could have been more if he could actually catch. Constantly burnt great opportunities. Pinpoint passes on the lead wasted through his inability to mark the easy ones.

There’s good reason he hasn’t been getting a game at the suns. They know he’s like fools gold. Looks promising but there’s no substance when you look below the surface.

I wonder if a decent footy system with a good fitness trainer and skills coaches would benefit him a lot.

He’s too lazy IMO

Interesting one
I saw some article it might be part of a play to get pick 4 by taking a chunk of his salary.

31 games in 6 years at Richmond, Hardwick was happy to let him walk to the Suns. With Dimma now at the Gold Coast, his days certainly look numbered.
