I've heard McDonough back to Adelaide on the cards

That trade has the potential to bite us in the anal region.

X 2, WTF is going on at our club.

Nothing wrong with taking a risk on Trengrove chuck IMV.

Difference is Hampson was a proven dud at the time we picked him, but this bloke has enormous upside. Can easily upgrade adelaides second pick they give us, but doubt the club will do it.

Then again maybe FJ will finally do his job with his late picks so who cares about high picks

As for this bloke. Hasn't really shown anything but hasn't really been given a chance. Undecided nor care

Might be just a case of trying to get something for him before he goes home for nothing next year. I would like to keep him but I think we may not have a say in his exit. The go home factor may have kicked in.

Do not know why the club would be looking to trade him. Thought club viewed him as the future. Prefer to keep him.

I think the pick upgrade may be more than stated previously.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.

maybe because he himself wants to return to adelaide?

stuff me, Al. Stop putting sense, rationale and a touch of the human element into a football conversation.
The club is stuffed, that's all there is to it.

Adelaide rumouredly offering pick 31 for Shoenmakers according to the Herald-Sun. No mention of them chasing McDonough.

How can he go "home for nothing next year"?

He isn't a free agent. So outside of de-listing him after the ND because he is a out of contract. The only way he can get anywhere is via trade
