It makes sense when you realise we aren't paying the full cap amount and he fills a gap. Hopefully can avoid that achilles/broken foot shit that sidelined him for a couple of seasons.


Trades are like statistics, you can make them fit however you like.

Averages 17 games a season over 14 seasons - that's not too shabby

I'm just thinking why Pyke would be so eager to get there, is it someone they've not heard of before?



Would have to think so surely.

There is a picture going round of Tex and Gibbs having coffee yesterday, wonder if Gibbs did go to the Sloane wedding?

It's the reverse Danger Trade.....Gibbsy's missus wants to come home to Adelaide....

Vickery leaving as a restricted free agent to Hawthorns means Richmond will receive ( at the moment ) pick 26 as compensation for Vickery joining the Hawks on a reported 3 year $1.5m deal.

Done deal.

What would Adelaide have to move for Gibbs?

First rounder and player?

Hes contracted so it will be overs. So think player probably Lyons a first rounder and probably a second rounder as well.

First Rounder + a player I would have thought.

Lyons?

Lyons, 1st rounder and a future second rounder?

Carlton need talls, they need forwards and defenders. they might chase a Hartigan or Kelly.

Maybe, I reckon this one will go on for a while.

Seen this rumour on Facebook but not sure how reliable Facebook is. It's annoying seeing Gibbs linked to us when he should have been a father/son pick 10 years ago if it wasn't for the stricter rules states outside of Victoria face

13 would help them secure Marchbank.

Adelaide FC have confirmed this, as has Gibbs' manager.

Adelaide only have themselves to blame for that one.....the AFL asked them the write the rule....some bright spark down at West Lakes forgot to subtract Ross' state games and other games that the SANFL counted but the VFL didn't....

If Gibbs comes home, will we hear the end of the whingeing about Dangerfield?

Would be pretty happy to get gibbs. After an indifferent start to his career he has been consistently good for a few seasons now.

Would pick 13 alone or our second rounder plus lyons or CEY be enough?

Lyons, 1st rounder and a future second rounder as booney suggested seems big overs
