Title: Rory Sloane... Staying or Going?
Post by: Trindacut on November 04, 2017, 01:53:44 PM
I predicted just a couple of weeks ago that this would be a fiasco next year when he put talks off. Seems he didn't waste any time.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2017-11-02/sloane-wont-be-rushed-into-new-crows-deal

http://www.news.com.au/sport/afl/kevin-bartlett-says-rory-sloane-is-leaving-the-adelaide-crows/news-story/fec507fbf991d0c5bc40d66deacdb461

http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/sport/afl/expert-opinion/graham-cornes/adelaide-afl-superstar-rory-sloane-should-say-now-whether-this-will-be-his-last-season-with-the-crows/news-story/0e198756ab075636b4c5005ced0a90f3

My gut feel is he will stay, but what one of the articles said about how he hasn't said some of the usual stuff like "I'd love to be a one club player.", "I love the crows." and "I'd love to be there in 2019.".

Only talked about how he's thinking of himself and his future post AFL. Equates to $$$. And don't forget, there's a good 10 months for Tex to absolutely put his boot in it and make Sloane feel unwanted or push him out the door. The Lever thing isn't encouraging for Sloane when making a decision.

I think Sloane will stay if the Crows match the offers he will get or very close to those offers but that means a change to the way players are paid there as I understand it no one gets paid more than the Captain ? I think Geelong have that pay structure in place as well but really you can't afford to lose another quality player so think they need a rethink on that .

The last thing the club needs is another Lever - Walker type situation , looking from over here in the east that come across as a club a bit divided with some players reported going to the coach not wanting Lever to play finals and it seemed to be a big distraction from what was really important the finals so if Sloane's contract is going to be long process which it seems where contracts are heading in the last few years then having the Captain and Vice Captain at loggerheads would be a disaster so the club needs to get it sorted in the first part of the season and all should be good for Crows next season ........ watch this space

I don't think Tex is the highest paid, I believe it's Sloane already.

Also, the reports about players not wanting Lever playing were bullshower, Tex said so himself on radio.

Ok like I said I am only going by media we get over here and one report was that Lever could not be paid $800K as he would be getting more than the Captain but the stuff about a small group of players going to the coach about Lever not playing finals was fairly widespread which makes you think it had something to it but you as a Crows fan you would have to agree with me that you can't have a bigger circus than the Lever one with Sloane's contract and you can't have him and Tex developing into a similar situation if Sloane's contract goes long term like Dusty's ?

Lever was reportedly offered 800k a year by Melb and Burton said that’d make him the highest paid Crow.

Sloane would fetch 1mil plus on the open market. The North offer would be around the 1.2mil mark but they’re shower and no one goes there.

If he isnt interested in media work post-AFL then his talk about his future and whats best for his family says he’s seeking the highest paycheck. Fair enough, I say. It’s where the game is at these days.

Adelaide are simply going to have to come to himwith the best offer before trade season 2018. It’ll mean laying overs, he wont be staying for ‘loyalty’.

And also the fact Lever just isn't worth 800k.

Well I don't know about you, but I'd take the word of the captain of the club over anyone in media.

The longer Sloane doesn't sign, the more it will be a circus because the media will make it one, just like they did with Lever, and nothing will change that until he signs. You can't say for sure anything would happen between Sloane and Tex because no one here knows what even happened between Lever and Tex, both situations are very different anyway.

Mate, I'm a lover of AFL. You've called me stupid, you've pointed out my age like it means something and you've had a stick up your ass whenever I've said something.

You even went out of your way to comment of my ladder prediction with a hysterical laugh, because I put Adelaide out of the 8. Prior to that, two Adelaide supporters put Richmond out of the eight and only one of 12 put them in the top 4. I didn't say a word.

So stop your whinging, have a laugh and when it comes to genuine commentary on current topics in the AFL I reckon you should try to chill out and appreciate that other people will have different views. I'm not trying to start anything, Adelaide was the 'dominant' projected winner this year, even though that won as many games as the Tiges and Geelong, and equal points to GWS. They will get as much scrutiny, probably less, as Richmond. They deserve it. As does Richmond. And when you look hard there are questions. I'm asking them.

I've asked them of the Tiges in years past mate, as I have on many other clubs. The Adelaide forum isn't the only place I've posted, but it's the only place I've posted where it's members scream me down because I go for another club.

Suck. It. Up.

Have. A. Laugh.

Stop. Being. A. Flog.

A stick up my ass or I just don't agree with anything you say and I'm defending my club from rubbish reports? There's a difference.

Do you want a medal for not responding to people not having Richmond in the 8, does that make you special? You tell me to have a laugh, but point out I posted a laughing gif in the paragraph before which would mean I am laughing? ???

What do you mean less scrutiny than Richmond? Of course there should be scrutiny on the club, but not for the bullshower reports about Lever and Sloane, talk about what happened on Grand Final cause if you think I'm not asking questions about what we dished up that day then you are wrong, cause I was flowering furious.

Well no, that's because some of your posts are clear bait.

Be a little less....

Salty.....

But in all seriousness, the Crows had a great year and it fell apart of GF day. Start looking at what fell apart there and work your way back.

The effort accross the whole team wasn't there. Less effort, means less drive. Tex is their Captain and he represented then poorly. It's worth looking at him, and it's worth now looking at a club that has lost a swag of players and may just yet lose one more, Sloane.

Cotchin was rightly criticised for three poor finals which we lost. The tiges board has a challenge and Dimma was in the hot seat to get sacked. Rest assured I'm just as familiar with crutiny and with being opposed to most of it. Hopefully I'm wrong, maybe I'm not.

Just chill out a bit and stop trying to pick a fight mate.

I think you two fellows have drifted off the subject topic with a biggest dick contest , back to the Sloane and his contract and what people think is going to unfold my questions to the Crows flock is can they get this sorted before it gets to a Lever - Walker situation ? will the club hobble Tex and what he says about Sloane's contract because really if want to see how to handle a quality player thinking of leaving by a Captain look no further than Cotchin's praise of Dusty no matter what his decision ?

These blokes commit virtually every element of their lives to this game for as many years as they can. Then, in their 30's, they become unemployed. A very select handful of past players go on to actually earn more than they used to as players. The rest have to use the money they earned as wisely as possible.

So when you know you've got less than a decade of footy in you, you're going to make as much money as you can doing it. As Grazz said, it's an old and arrogant perspective that it "isn't about the money". You might suck some players in on that, but players like Sloane are going to tell them to stick it and go where the money's at, possibly even at a more successful club.

Sorry mate, it will be about money.
The money it will take to keep him against the money rumoured to be on offer in Victoria and family and friends (Huge).
Either the club abandons its stance on its current pay structure and writes a big check around 1 million + maybe
for atleast 5 years to have a hope or forget it. In this day and age of footy it's hard to be critical of anyone
taking the cash. It's my feelings that the club should cough up.

It's not like Sloane will be playing for peanuts mate, and nice little cheap shot with the 'more successful club' line. Why am I not surprised you pop up as soon as this topic comes up again? go away.

I'm not saying I disagree with you but the reason I say it is because clubs trying to lure players away, a lot of the time, offer a lot more money than their current club have in their current contract or the contract offered, they usually have to pay more to get them to move. So of course, the money he will get in Victoria will be more than he will get here, but if we were a team located in Victoria, Sloane would not leave, regardless of the difference in $$$. If he leaves, it will be mainly to go home, the extra money will be a bonus.

Post by: Ringo on January 25, 2018, 10:40:19 PM
Whilst money appears to be the object there is also length of contract being offered. So players approaching or in 30s will always seek the longest contract out. Reason we lost Rocky. In most cases if length of contract being offered is same most will stay unless $ is substantially more.

It's not like Sloane will be playing for peanuts mate, and nice little cheap shot with the 'more successful club' line. Why am I not surprised you pop up as soon as this topic comes up again? go away.

Just rolling with "he's gone". No more disappointments that way, he's flowering leaving end of story.
Love the club but this arrogance around their pay structure and refusing to budge is getting old.
It's not about money though?

Sorry mate, it will be about money.
The money it will take to keep him against the money rumoured to be on offer in Victoria and family and friends (Huge).
Either the club abandons its stance on its current pay structure and writes a big check around 1 million + maybe
for atleast 5 years to have a hope or forget it. In this day and age of footy it's hard to be critical of anyone
taking the cash. It's my feelings that the club should cough up.
I'm not saying I disagree with you but the reason I say it is because clubs trying to lure players away, a lot of the time, offer a lot more money than their current club have in their current contract or the contract offered, they usually have to pay more to get them to move. So of course, the money he will get in Victoria will be more than he will get here, but if we were a team located in Victoria, Sloane would not leave, regardless of the difference in $$$. If he leaves, it will be mainly to go home, the extra money will be a bonus.

Adelaide will get an advantage in the negotiations, I imagine he'd take less to stay, but I don't think he'll take much less and Dustin Martin proved last year if you put the heat on you get the dollars, without necessarily leaving either.

Yes Grazz I can understand your frustration with what has been going on something has to change you can't just keep losing your best players but the season has not started so nothing is a given yet , the Tiges had to cough up about 400K more than there first offer to Dusty and I realize the Crows have Sloane being a Vic as an added problem but surely the penny will drop this time.

I have not heard of any dollar value to what he is being offered by other clubs ? so guess it's wait and see but the powers that be at the Crows must know it can't continue.

Don't stress mate if the fans and everybody else is saying and thinking the same thing I'm sure the people in charge will be as well I'd be very surprised if they let him slip , Norf are to blame for this with there over the top 1.5 mil offer for dusty just gotta hope they don't try the same shower again don't think any other clubs will be throwing anything like that at him  ;)

Anyone who's seen what has happened in Europe or the NBA last month knows, players simply DO NOT just run home to mummy! Only losers (Even if they live on the greatest continent and best living spots on earth) run home to their mummy (Paddy)

Only here in Oz do perfect people with perfect lives want everything else to be perfect around them (Paddy D) Every other "Professional" Sports person realizes what they must give for them to succeed. Only here in Oz o flogs like Paddy actually leave every year to run home!

Ask Roger Federer, Ronaldo, Messi, Kevin Durant, Jason Da, Alexis Sanchez, Steve Smith .... I can go on allllllll day/night .....  how many spend time in their home town or where their mummy lives?

It doesn’t really matter what North do. He still needs to want to play there. He wouldn’t get offered 1.5mil probs only 1.2 as the age difference between him and Kelly.

Tomato Tomato.

You named a bunch of blokes earning tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. With enough money you can go anywhere to work, even Norf.

When you play a sport that's played (almost) entirely in one country then it's also different. These blokes played local sports with friends and family before they became AFL legends, so there is always a lure of 'home'. And sometimes there's shower we don't know about, sick family/friends that make it all the more important that if given a choice of doing the same thing at home or away and you get paid just as much or more to do it home then they're going to go home.

And it could be there isn't a very enjoyable culture at the club. It would explain why so many players have left despite their success in recent years.

As Grazz said, this pay structure doesn't give them a lot of wiggle room either. When you start talking about a difference of millions at the end of your career, money counts. Don't be stingy

You either mover because you miss your family (Unless you are young) "SOFT" Or you leave for more money "Flog" It appears everyone is stuffed in my world! Not the case!

Jerome Randle anyone? Plays for a pittance any good footballer is on, less than that minimum for an AFL player, did he move clubs three times last year? yes he did! Chasing more money, not once Have I ever heard Randle (Former Adelaide 36r superstar) Whine about his family issues. He only ever left because the $ did not add up. So then he played in France and Turkey before returning to the NBL with Sydney Kings

Not everything's about money and not everything's about family. But to leave a "Professional" Sport because of family, simply makes you soft

As I said already which people don't care anyway. Only here in Aus do people leave professional sporting organizations for their family! Check out every other sport on earth ::)

Relax, princess. If you want a forum where all of you Adelaide supporters can rub bums and suck up each others ass then go join those stupid supporter groups.

We’re entitled to voice an opinion without your constant whiney marrative about how we wouldnt be here if Adelaide didn’t massively drop the ball in the GF by having a shower captain sparking in-fighting over Lever and doing stupid things like not inviting him to club functions and just generally being a shower bloke.

Sloane will fetch a million plus. North have got it, so be bloody sure they will put an offer in.

Have I actually ever said that before? I don't think I have but I apologise in advance if you find proof, doesn't change the fact it's true. A shower captain? Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha ok. Infighting? Where are you getting that from lol? The media where you're getting all the rest of your bullshower from?

I'm sure Norf will but it's Norf so :P

Wouldnt be surprised if he gets voted off the captaincy.
Hahahahah is that the best you've got? Come on!

If Tex isn't captain, you can pick my avatar and bio for the rest of the year.
The flog saying Tex isn’t a good capt does know he has got capt of the season twice in a row...

Are you so offended by it because you know it's true?

Relax, princess. If you want a forum where all of you Adelaide supporters can rub bums and suck up each others ass then go join those stupid supporter groups.

We’re entitled to voice an opinion without your constant whiney marrative about how we wouldnt be here if Adelaide didn’t massively drop the ball in the GF by having a shower captain sparking in-fighting over Lever and doing stupid things like not inviting him to club functions and just generally being a shower bloke.

If look at my first and second post they are about a report about Norf going hard again after out of contract players so you would be pretty dumb to think it won't happen with Sloane and it is in a thread about Sloane staying or going no one was insulted or targeted

Troll - is a person who sows discord on the internet by starting quarrels or upsetting people by posting inflammatory , Extraneous (irrelevant or unrelated to the subject being dealt with ) or off topic messages in a online community.
so it seems I'm being called a troll by someone who is the actual troll  ;)
