I didn't see this posted anywhere else?

Frustrating, but let's get the best deal for him. Sounds like we had a decent offer on the table for him.

 

[WeeBlake]

Would rather he stayed, but ok

We won't get anything as good with his compensation pick, and it will probably be too poor to bother using.

 

[Cap]

OoC so best deal might not be one we like.

Interesting it's too do with fitness .

Did not know he had a brother playing AFL either

He's not a FA, so discussion about a "compensation pick" is irrelevant.

 

[Bernie L]

Melbourne board stating he clashed with Burgess.

 

[radiojake]

Not stoked about this

Is this because he got shafted to the SANFL after his suspension rather than straight back in to the senior side?

I know. It was a generic term and irrelevant to the point.

Ruccci has clarified saying it was a Melbourne based club….

Had a three year deal on the table from us according to the Gettable podcast

And I'd trust Twomey more than old m8 Rooch

 

[Peter Doherty]

He's 29 next year.

 

[Scorpus]

He was probably disgruntled when we didn't play him after his suspension and prioritised spuds like Murphy instead.

Also it's Classic Crows to keep Murphy but have McAdam leave

 

[daniel_4tw]

No problem straight swap with Oliver

 

[Jcpdragonx]

Should get a second rounder, can easily see him outdoing what we get for him and kicking 40 goals

 

[WetCrow1991]

Yikes.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Gollant now has a big opportunity

He's uncontracted. Unlikely.

He could have been a 30-40 goal forward for us, unfortunately he has never been able to play more than 15 games each year cause he gets those random injuries.

Melbourne board stating he clashed with Burgess.

Very possible. He clashed with many at the club early on over standards. He may have improved but Burgess is probably harder on him.

 

[Danger in Texas]

If the fitness staff unhappiness is true, I’d be more inclined to believe the guy that got a 33yo Tex to kick 75+ goals

That doesn’t make his departure any easier to swallow, though
