Adelaide Crows 2017

[Feenix]

Heard a lot more talk aboout Lever, McGovern and Cameron. Crows offering virtually the same deals as interstate clubs but likely to lose them all.
Why is Adelaide's retention rate so poor?

I find this hard to believe. Crows knocking on the door of a flag and have a decent list moving forward, why would you want to leave that.

It's a career now not a sport for many. The difference between $400k x 4 and $700k x4 can set you up for life. I still would prefer the flags but many wouldn't

Yep but if it's 550 vs 700 then maybe the team success comes into it

If the difference between wages is huge than I can understand that but if its not surely you go for team success.

[Booney]

Depends who your manager is I think.

[Bum Crack]

Charlie would be very unlikely to leave Eddie!

Why would you leave the AFC at the moment? Surely the possibility of success out weighs the want to go home? If they do leave, we will have cash to burn and will be able to lure good players who are interested in playing in a successful team, not just collecting a pay cheque at the end of each loss!

Charlie is gone. Has been for months now.

Good source have ya?? Not much media coverage....would be surprised if he left Eddie, he is like a father to him!
Contracted required player, Brisbane or the GC would have to offer something decent!

Not much media coverage but has had some coverage in Brisbane for a few months. Reportedly wants to move for family reasons. Hill, McCarthy, Beams are just a few contracted players who have been released by the clubs on family grounds so it's not impossible that something can't be worked out

[MW]

Adelaide would not hold him if he wants to leave for family reasons, but in saying that, Brisbane would have to pay up.
We've seen how that pans out with Bryce Gibbs

[Booney]

Brisbane will have picks to give up for walk up starters too. They've got our 1st rounder and Collingwoods 3rd rounder on top of their own.

The chance of Cameron leaving is real. There is substance to the rumour, Brisbane are chasing and hard.

There are a few factors for this. Family and Money are up there. It almost seems like winning a flag is not his sole drive. I honestly find it all very strange but the source of the info is good.

However regardless of what Cameron wants to do, he is contracted and Adelaide hold all the cards.

[bennymacca]

What's he worth you reckon ?

Good second rounder?

[Booney]

What's he worth you reckon ?

Good second rounder?

At best, even as a contracted player.

[Brodlach]

What's he worth you reckon ?

Good second rounder?

Pick 1

[hawks21]

Good second rounder?

As he is contracted, an early 2nd round pick isn't unreasonable i wouldn't have thought.
A pick in the 20's might be useful to package up for a decent midfielder.

[morell]

Did lol at Rodd and Gunn

[Brodlach]

I resemble most of that

Mmmm Aunty Joys apricot slice

[MW]

whats a rodd and gunn?

[morell]

whats a rodd and gunn?

Imagine a mid 50s eastern suburbs type with a overly expensive polo shirt underneath a good quality woolen sweater, those weird old almost canvasy type pants ... with loafers.

That what you get from Rodd and Gunn.
