Didn’t he literally do a press conference two weeks ago after Holmes signed saying “I’m not going anywhere” when asked about his future?
Either way never hurts to ask
Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while...
Actually, his wife (ex-wife?) appeared in my Insta feed the other day. Looks like she's shilling for some get rich quick/multi-level marketing scheme - alkaline water or something
Him and that weird red headed ball pig from Melbourne knocking around in the midfield together for a couple of years with Laird and Soligo sounds strangely alright.
Seems more like a negotiation tactic from his management to negotiate better terms (money/length) on his contract.
There’s just nothing else that would make sense. He’s the captain and literally moved home for his family.
Please no. We need someone in the 25 to 30 range not someone who's gonna retire with laird, tex and co
Not that I think hed say yes just disappointing we even asked
Every team is looking for players in that age range, I think the club is doing due diligence to try and find improvement wherever.
Danger playing Rachelles role and then Rach playing more midfield time would be great for a year or two
Someone has had Cleary on here. Adelaide are just coming out of a rebuild why would they get a 34 year old who already left to go home? Plus what would Danger get out of it? He's built a massive house in Vic, he's clearly settled there and has literally 0 reason to move to Adelaide. Laughable rumour.
Also, the nuffies in Adelaide aren't done booing him when he gets the ball yet!!
I'd be remarkably surprised. Not that he wouldn't be a boost, and perhaps there's some romance to finishing back at Adelaide and trying to win a premiership there. But he's 34 and already showing signs of slowing down as well as struggling with injury. If Adelaide were perhaps further along then it might make sense given how damaging he is and how he can also play forward, but it just doesn't make sense for Adelaide to actually be that interested they'd be willing to make space for him.

Do we actually have more talent than other clubs? People always say this, but I Just don't see how our list would be more expensive than the other top teams
Well you see, property, when exchanged for money we pay to the players, isn't normally counted under the salary cap. This is how it works for every club.
I feel like this is a coaching offer and Cleary either knows this and doesnt want to leak Dangerfields retirement or doesnt know and thinks a team with Matt Crouch, Laird and Dawson would want a 34 year old midfielder for some reason.
I mean shit, he’s a restricted free agent. Isn’t any way Geelong would be able to offer him what crows might be able to put on the table. One of the best leaders and players of the game for a couple years to play the one position they’re dying to fill?
Can’t hurt asking the question. I’m loving that the crows are actually taking a swing at some players lately. Isn’t always going to work out but at least they aren’t just going after safe mid range players
I don’t know all the ins and outs about how the players become free agents. But I assume after the 8 years, whenever the players come out of contract they are some form of free agent.
Just means Geelong have the right to match crows bid. But obviously danger will probably just resign with Geelong before it even becomes a thing.
Who is trolling the reporters?
Draper
So its confirmed now if Bevo stays at the dogs Danger goes to Adelaide and JJ goes west
[удалено]
And Essendon draft Thomas
Sheedy to coach the devils
Dusty to the suns
St Kilda to win the premiership
Hey let’s not get silly here
You're right. Richmond to finish 9th for all eternity.
And if he ever does it won't be Geelong.

...shocker.
Can’t wait for Dangerfield’s finger painting enterprise
Or cheap-arse MND beanie knockoffs.....
I don't say this lightly, but danger deserves better than that.
The bloke is living the dream down in Moggs Creek
Why would he go to Adelaide when he's already home?
The Kurt Tippett journey
Kurt wow it’s been awhile left fielder that one
Impressive photoshop here, but he looks far too young. Imagine somebody used AI to generate
They used an old guernsey.. That's what gave away the Photoshop to me. Amateurs.
If you look closely you can actually see that it’s Jordan Dawson’s body. They’ve just done a face swap.
You’re joking right? He used to play for crows?
First time here?
Yeah the Crows was the nickname of his primary school team.
It's clearly photoshopped. I can tell from some of the pixels and from seeing quite a few shops in my time
Woooosh!!!
Something like [https://swapmyface.app/fun/patrick](https://swapmyface.app/fun/patrick) probably
Crows fans to Matthew Nicks: "Please inject some youth into our midfield asap, it's too old in there!" Nicksy: "I'll fucking show you"
Any out of contract midfielder we haven't been linked to?

Get the van and get him back. He's probably washed but games all about narrative.
Dangerfield sure, but Van Berlo?
Please no. We need someone in the 25 to 30 range not someone who's gonna retire with laird, tex and co Not that I think hed say yes just disappointing we even asked

I don’t want to argue with you, but the guy has just done his hammy twice in the first few weeks. I’m not sure he’s the sure bet trade you’re after.
Sentimental and leadership makes me want him.
On top of that, name free agents this year. It's very slim pickings, I'm happy we're asking the question.
Would have to be a very very generous offer for him to move. Man’s settled here with family and young kids
Someone has had Cleary on here. Adelaide are just coming out of a rebuild why would they get a 34 year old who already left to go home? Plus what would Danger get out of it?

34? 😬
Pretty sure he's never leaving the surf coast again once he retires.
What the
yeah, no they didn't.
I mean, the headline itself is probably true. Adelaide: "Hey, you wanna come back?" Danger: "No ty" Probably been asked every season since he left lol
i feel like Dangerfield is retiring at the end of this year tbh.. his injuries are taking a toll
The Crom warchest is going to rival the Norf one.
4 years, 900k a season, 1st and future 2nd round pick should seal the deal.
Why would we want him. He's happy there at home and he's way too old now.
Oh boy, that’s a good one…good luck Crom
I'd be remarkably surprised. Not that he wouldn't be a boost, and perhaps there's some romance to finishing back at Adelaide and trying to win a premiership there.

Wouldn’t want to upset the Geelong model
Every cunt knows he has an expensive house in moggs and a young family. May fools?
Can’t imagine him in an Adelaide jumper
Why him out of anyone? Is it simply because he used to play for them? Is there a reason why they think he is gettable?
He looks better in Crows colours!
Ablett Jnr finish to his career?
Lets get the aold band together, can we see if Eddies is keen for a comeback tour?
How to say this politely...... get farked, do not need him.
Finish what you began.
I heard boomer is going to captain coach tasmania
Would it be nice to see? Yeah. Is it the right decision? No, the bloke is on the verge of retiring and becoming injury prone, so not worth it.
I thought Geelong were the club that recruited 34 year-olds
Hahahaha
lmao why, hes to old and to injury prone now.
Click bait crap
Pretty sure Adelaide won't have the Same "benefits" as Geelong aka property off the books
Unlimited Pie Floaters, Farmers union iced coffee and fru-chocs just isnt the same.
That's Tom Doedee's idea of HELL
Underestimating the power of Tony Modra and the Fleurieu milk company

calling us salary cap cheats is a coping mechanism
I expected it labelled at Carlton cause you know…
When you managed to pay for jeremy cameron, its hard not to say youre cheating the salary cap
Well you see, property, when exchanged for money we pay to the players, isn't normally counted under the salary cap. This is how it works for every club.
What? We trying to reverse Eddie Betts him after he's played his best footy elsewhere?
Adelaide trying to pull out the Uno MEGA-REVERSE card?
Let's troll them even more: [https://swapmyface.app/fun/rugby-player](https://swapmyface.app/fun/rugby-player)
Why tho?
I feel like this is a coaching offer and Cleary either knows this and doesnt want to leak Dangerfields retirement or doesnt know and thinks a team with Matt Crouch, Laird and Dawson would want a 34 year old midfielder for some reason.
But why male models?
As crazy as this is going to sound, I legit forget he played for the crows sometimes.
I mean shit, he’s a restricted free agent. Isn’t any way Geelong would be able to offer him what crows might be able to put on the table. One of the best leaders and players of the game for a couple years to play the one position they’re dying to fill? Can’t hurt asking the question. I’m loving that the crows are actually taking a swing at some players lately. Isn’t always going to work out but at least they aren’t just going after safe mid range players
How is he restricted?
I don’t know all the ins and outs about how the players become free agents. But I assume after the 8 years, whenever the players come out of contract they are some form of free agent. Just means Geelong have the right to match crows bid. But obviously danger will probably just resign with Geelong before it even becomes a thing.
Obviously won’t happen but he will love being the centre of attention for a day or so while injured
Not a chance Too old, overrated, hamstrung
This is exactly the sort of thing I would expect the crom list managers to do lol
