Kurt Tippett is a Swan! ... FINALLY!!!

[monstrum]

ADELAIDE today will sign a trade it did not want to consider a week ago as it blinked in the deal with defecting forward Kurt Tippett.

The club also faces a major task in explaining to its fan base why it accepted out-of-favour Sydney ruckman-forward Jesse White and the Swans' first-round draft pick (currently No.22) for Tippett.

Pretty weak effort by the crows.

Adelaide will end up with a good player, hopefully yhey get Colqahoun with 19 or whatever it will be, and a Broomhead or McDonough. if they don't take these locals I will be mad >:(

[Capper]

wow thought it would take more. Will be interesting to see if we play the crows at home or away or both next year what reception he gets

[Ziplock]

haha.

someone's going to try to shank him.

just saying.

Not necessarily... Jesse White apparently failed his medical test at West Lakes yesterday

Heard that onFacebook pages - several, all credible ones too - and radio stations 5AA, Triple M, and 3AW

thing is, all it takes is one of those sources to start the rumour and then the others jump on it :P

for instance in the (60s? 80s? doesn't really matter), a chick published in her cook book that you should throw out all unopened mussels when cooking, because they've gone off- even though the unpened ones are actually more immature and less likely to be bad :P But basically that ended up getting believed, and now appears in like 80% of cook books :P
