McCartin this year, Dangerfield next year?

[White Winmar]

If we end up with Paddy this year, would we make a big play for Dangerfield at the end of 2015? He's out of contract then and he appears to have resisted the Crows attempts to extend. Could this be the strategy? Imagine adding Dangerfield to our midfield. I think if we could pull it off we'd forget about Petracca fairly quickly. Discuss.

Dangerfield wants to play finals… I highly doubt he would choose to come to us next year when we'll be lucky to win 3 games.

If this is the "strategy" we are f***ed.

No chance.

[White Winmar]

Money talks louder than finals. We'll have plenty of room in the SC, plus with him on board and a group of classy youngsters, we'll be closer to finals than many think. It will be 2016 and Danger will have the opportunity to lead us back into the eight, either then or in 2017. It's not unrealistic.

Trading in one or more classy Free Agents over the next couple of years is at the very top of the club's strategy. I am amazed at how little some of you blokes know about your own club.

More realistic that we have done a deal with a Treloar or a Sheil.

Dangerfield coming nowhere near us

How do you know that? Inside info, opinion, or guess? I'd suggest it's the latter two options.

Have to agree with BM. Dangerfield is no hope. Geelong or Adelaide.

From the way it's phrased... I'd say clearly that's an opinon

Sounds to me that it is an emphatic statement of fact. Or that's the impression he's trying to give.

[dragit]

From what I have heard from interviews with Dangerfield he wouldn't even consider coming to us.

Oh yes, which ones would they be? Can you give us some links? I'm calling bulls***. He's never specifically said he'd never come to the saints. Produce the evidence.

Deal done with Cameron.....Petracca this year Jeremy next

You are running at nil percent at the moment.

[fugazi]

Why would Dangerfield come to us???
He could get what we'd be offering at any club pushing for finals....we're a slowly rebuilding basketcase.

I didn't say he specifically ruled out St Kilda, but I have heard him talk about wanting to know the direction of the club and that he wants to be playing in successful sides. I have heard this a number of times…

Here is one article:

Adelaide superstar Patrick Dangerfield says loyalty and success drives his football, unlikely to accept lucrative free agency offers

“It’s not about money. It’s about what really drives me. What I get most enjoyment from is success.

“I don’t play the game to make enormous amounts of money. Certainly That’s part of footy and we get paid really well, but that isn’t the driving factor behind why I play AFL and where I’ll play footy in the future.

“It comes from mum and dad ... if money is the driving factor in life, you’re never going to be happy because you’ll always want more.’’

We will be 18th next year, bottom 4 again in 2016… so I am guessing that isn't very attractive to a 26 year wanting to move to a more successful club… I'm tipping he re-signs with Adelaide long term and becomes their captain.

It's a nice fantasy though, just like my one about Miranda Kerr.

Why would Boyd go to the ultimate losers, the dogs? One word. Money. Don't underestimate greed. We're as good a chance as anyone because we can offer him the dough. Makes it hard to say no. I know Geelong would be his first preference as it's a homecoming of sorts, but never underestimate greed and self interest. Just think of Gary Ablett
Junior. Could've played in a premiership and finals, but chose the money instead.

Agreed and surely not...It would be an almost BJ-esque play to the Dons. We are nowhere near it but pick up a free agent because we can.

It needs to be a young and pissed off kid/kids that we can throw additional coin at. This is where the expansion clubs are ripe for the picking and rightly so.

Dangerfield is my lover and he told me he wont go to a bust club like the Saints.

Well can you move on to Rory Sloane then Bunky, and take one for the club!?

This comment seems to have been glossed over and also makes sense (if we are sticking to the Pelican model).

Typical bulls*** response from someone caught out lying. Yeah, just make a joke, which only exposes you more, JB, I mean BM. Must try harder.

Can't be wrong all the time. I'm choosing to believe this one.

[White Winmar]

From what I have heard from interviews with Dangerfield he wouldn't even consider coming to us.

Oh yes, which ones would they be? Can you give us some links? I'm calling bulls***. He's never specifically said he'd never come to the saints. Produce the evidence.

So he didn't specifically mention us. A lot can change in twelve months. He had the chance to re-sign and extend his contract this year. The fact he didn't smacks of someone who is going to test the market next year.

pfft dangerfield
