If true that PD will re-sign, where does this leave Tippett? Me thinks he will be offered substantially less than his current deal which will see him ask to be traded to one of the Qld clubs. Adelaide to get a good draft pick and/or player in return.
Would Sam Day + draft pick be a reasonable ask?

The Brownlow-contending midfielder yesterday declared his sought-after signature would be on a new contract at West Lakes, possibly as early as the next fortnight.
"That's something that will be done over the next couple of weeks, I'm sure," said Dangerfield yesterday after an overnight stay in Melbourne for a Crows supporters' function.
"I'm not worried about it - something will happen before the end of the season, I'd say," the 22-year-old midfielder told Channel 9. This statement has prompted Crows players to confidently predict Dangerfield has cast aside the "come home" lures from Victorian-based AFL clubs Geelong and Essendon.
"He loves it here - I'm sure he'll stay," said fellow Crows midfielder Bernie Vince yesterday.
But Vince noted the stunning performances from Dangerfield in the past month - starting with his Showdown Medal-winning effort against Port Adelaide - will make a dent in Adelaide's salary cap far more than the counter-offers from the Cats.
Dangerfield will challenge out-of-contract key forward Kurt Tippett as Adelaide's highest-paid player at $700,000 a season.
