If he wants 2 years then do it.

If its a matter of proving that we are going somewhere then we have 2 years to prove it.

Hell, by this time next year we should have a better idea, if we arent on the upward trajectory this time next year. E.g still in the mix for that 8th spot

Exactly
Gives Port time to get draft capital unless they trade one of dimmas rejects again
The lukosius trade was poor

 

[The Punter]

If it’s a matter of proving we are going somewhere. Wouldn’t said deal include significant triggers to extend?

If all we get is a flat 2 year deal. Our fan base will celebrate and refuse to acknowledge what likely lies ahead.

Port's draft hand will be better in future years surely. They are simply unable to buy high right now. They don't have the assets.

They have significant academy and Father sons coming through each year for the next couple beginning in 2026.

It’s likely the same shit show as we have debated here and with them to death.

Well they better get their shit together.

Or maybe Nas should give us until RFA in 2029?

 

[The Punter]

I mean, he should sign for the rest of his career. But they cannot satisfy us right now.

 

[stavro#4]

Yes, I agree.

But then we all bathe in the compium that they will have a better asset hand in 2 years.

They are literally touching themselves at all the talent they have coming through via academy and father sons that will ultimately diminish their asset hand.

And EVEN IF Butters comes into play. It’s an older more battle word Butters. Etc.

Get to RFA in 4 years time - which is also hopefully past Tassie or the significant impact of Tasmania and let’s revisit.

 

[Saint Shags]

Why?

 

[ABAB]

With Port not having a first rounder, I've never been more desperate for a Caro story was more right in my life.

Remember when she said Nas had no interest in going to the crom because of Tex Walker? Everyone involved denied it but she still maintains its accurate.

In any case, can this Ben Williams guy stop treating this like an episode of Big Brother and just let Nas announce that he's staying.

Apparently "hates" Walker so much that he follows him on Instagram???

 

[True Believer]

You dickheads went at any of us that suggested anything was wrong for years.

You dickheads?

How about you bite me, sad sack.......

 

[True Believer]

How long should an erection last before you go to hospital

No more than a week......

 

[Captain Paddy]

$100 on Nas for the Brownlow months ago at $501.

Gonna call my future house 'The Nas'

 

[stavro#4]

Why?

Because I can’t see Port having better assets in 2 years time.

It’s likely the same argument as now.

 

[stavro#4]

Apparently "hates" Walker so much that he follows him on Instagram???

Even if he wanted to go to you.

You still have nothing to offer.

Not long ago YOU laughed at me for saying Draper and Curtain.

Draper and Curtin, I'm still laughing at you lol.

 

[stavro#4]

Nas top 5 player.

I’m laughing at you dumbass.

 

[Teflon]

Look I love a good old fashioned sook as much as the next toddler, but I was replying to Teflon's suggestion that our abominable past 15 years has nothing to do with our own incompetence… which is cult-level stupidity.

I'll give you the tip: We royally ****ed recruitment for 18 years straight - that's why we have been floundering for the past 15 years.

Here's a quick recap:

High picks flushed
2003
Pick 8 - Raph Clark
2004
Pick 17 - Andrew McQualter
Pick 33 - Cain Ackland
2006
Pick 27 - Brad Howard
2007
Pick 9 - Ben McEvoy
2008
Pick 13 - Tom Lynch
2009
Pick 32 - Nicholas Winmar
2010
Pick 24 - Jamie Cripps

Then we went for the weight of numbers approach:
2011
Ross, Markworth, Newnes, Webster, Lever, Maister, Dunnell, Shenton, Stayley, Minchington
2012
Tom Lee, Saad, Milera, Wright, White, Murdoch, Saunders, Pierce
2013
Hickey, Longer, Billings, Dunstan, Acres, Delaney, Savage, Curren, Templeton, Weller, Holmes
2014
McCartin, Goddard, McKenzie, Lonie, Saad, Payne
2015
Carlisle, Gresham, White, Rice, O’Kearney, Coughlan,
2016
Long, Battle, Phillips
2017
Clark, Coffield, Clavarino, Paton, Langlands, Pierce, Brown,
2018
King, Bytel, Parker, Hind, Young
2019
Hill, Howard, Ryder, Mayo, Byrnes, Connolly, Bell
2020
Allison, Highmore, Higgins, Crouch, McKernan

Ross, Webster, Steele & Higgins have been good pick-ups to varying degrees, then some success on smokies from the rookie draft: Sinclair, Marshall & Wilkie

On the rare occasions we did select a decent player, we punted them for more scratchies - Stanley, McEvoy, Lynch, Gresham, Acres, Long, Battle

We've used valuable draft capital and/or cap space on: Watts, Lovett, Longer, Lee, Freeman, Hickey, Carlisle, Stevens, Hannebery, Hill, Howard, Jones, Dow, Henry,

Things look better from 2021 but we are still shit because we have SFA to show from the 18 years preceding it, which means our 23 - 35 core is threadbare. This is why we have been shit for so long.

I can count 15 clubs that have either won a flag or have been in a position to challenge for one over the past 10 years, leaving only Essendon, North & us.

Alternatively: It's all Gold Coast's fault.

You still sooking ??? Bwahahah saibts had draft stuff ups???
No shit Sherlock - so has every other club
Why tell us all again saints have messed up draft picks?? All clubs have
The point (you’ve missed clearly) is it’s how many bites at the cherry some are getting ??
Keep
Pissin n moaning you must be devastated after yesterday ??? Nothing to whinge about.

 

[_Maximus_12]

Draper and Curtin, I'm still laughing at you lol.

Does the curtain match the drapes?

No. You will need more little bitch.

 

[Teflon]

Throw Naughton, Bailey Smith & Serong into our side instead of Coffield, King & Hill and we would be winning most games.

Let’s go back and grab Teasedale, Ablett Senior and Dunstall while we are there for a real club pile on!!

 

[Mr Clunk]

The importance of Nas' signature beyond his footballing ability

Attract talent from other clubs

Inspire team mates not to be plodders

 

[SaintSteele9]

Thought long and hard about this….i was born after 66 so can’t factor that in.

1) The birth of my 2 kids
2) My wedding
3) Yesterday

That’s not in order though

 

[Tom12]

Port do not have the assets to get a deal done unless Butters is involved. Unless that changes, how can he possibly leave?

He's played himself out of trade contention this year.

 

[SaintSteele9]

I get the two-year extension kicks the can down the road, but I also feel the longer players stay, the longer they tend to stay… keep him however we can and maybe it gets harder to leave

 

[SainterinSydney]

It still astonishes me how supporters think they can get quality generational level talent for the loose change in their pockets.

 

[Sully111]

How long should an erection last before you go to hospital

Waste of time. Tried it once and very few of the nurses wanted to roll in the hay with me....practically NO nurses... well... 6.... but still

There are other places for that sort of thing.
