I find both of these scenarios remarkable if true.

On what planet is Shaw worth pick 2, and why the hell are Adelaide throwing that much at Betts!?

The Crows have been keen on him for months - $520k pa was the figure quoted elsewhere. That's more than Chris Dawes or Crameri.

PS - I read Melbourne's "second draft pick" as being their second rounder, not pick 2.

Andreajs Everitt up for trade according to The Age, can't afford to resign him...

Can they swap him back for Vez?

Even if they didn't, I'm sure the AFL would find a way to get them any player they wanted.

No doubt that will lead to a flurry of ridiculous scenarios on BF.

I'd love to upgrade for Aish but I suspect any price Melbourne suggest will be too high.

Wow.

This is ridiculous; how and why can so many players want to leave? Something must be seriously wrong down at that club.

Half of them wanted out because of Voss now the other half wants out because he was 'sacked'.

Speculation that both Cross and Addison will be picked up by other clubs...assuming we don't pick up a free agent of our own, what do people think they would add up to get us? Could it be a second round pick? Or no more than a third rounder?
