People keep drawing in Sellar's SANFL form when evaluating him. I haven't seen much of him at this level so can't comment - but what I have seen of him at AFL level suggests to me that he has many encouraging qualities that could see him develop into a quality ruckman.
So far, it has been another week of nothing at AFL trade week.
I have always wanted to be a part of the trade week ,just to see what goes on behind closed doors.
I reackon it would be like the kids at a High School dance.
*Crows recruiting guys try to catch the eye of the Carlton recruiting guys*
In the middle, ruckman Sam Jacobs' Manager see's the eye contact between the two clubs teams. He walks over to Carlton and speaks with them, glancing back at Adelaide's men. A little giggle and off he goes.
He approaches Adelaide's men. "So, they tell me you like Sam Jacobs' "
Adelaides men, all coy and embarrased "Well ,kinda....." as they twist their foot on the ground.
Manager "So, do you like like him or do you like like him....?"
The Carlton team giggle as they look over at the conversation.
Adelaide team "Well, we like like him....we have for a while".
Manager runs back to the Carlton team, whispers in their ears and they head over, as a group to speak to Adelaides men direct...

Sydney get Everitt Bulldogs get Veszpremi plus a late draft pick.
Bulldogs the winner in this trade
I reckon Sydney are...everytime I see Everitt play he goes alright, I rate him. Swans have got a good one here.
Veszpremi is a good player. Unlucky not to play more over the past season. Bit of a livewire forward. Hopefully Everitt will play down back for us. We need some tall defenders.

Not sure about this, however, would love to see Tambling perform to his expectations!
Do you mean the pick we got for Bock Browny?
This could work out very well for the crows....Tambling was a number 2 draft pick? and has been in a very struggling side ever since he's been in the system. He could well by a very good player in a team where he has good players around him. Espec in a very good Crows defence running off half back.
I'm still not convinced about Tambling either and whether this is a good thing, I've never seen him play a good game but I'll give him a chance and jump on the 'Hopefully a new environment will bring out the best in him" bandwagon

Terry Wallace said last night he reckons The Crows are chasing Tambling purely as a crumbing forward to play alongside Tippett & Walker.

The jury is definitely out, but I think it will turn out to be a good trade. It's Ricky Nixon who is declaring it a done deal at the moment though not the clubs, so I'll believe it when I see it confirmed properly.

Aren't the Crows better off keeping their trade for Bock and use it on an up and comer?? Sure, Gold Coast get the majority of the early picks but when Tambling is involved, I would have thought you're better off looking at the long term gain by using that draft pick on a long term prospect, as opposed to the short term pain by bringing him in to the club. I think he is absolute crap and think you're mad getting him.
So you've seen everything have you? Yep Have you ever seen a man eat his own head? No Well you haven't seen everything then have you.
