List Mgmt. 2025 List Management discussion - part 2

[kernelT]

I haven’t seen any of these interviews tonight FYI.

But if you’re going home. You don’t need to discuss it with the family. That’s what they want.

You’re discussing that your staying. Your rationale and the opportunity in 2 or 4 years time to come back.

I haven't seen the tooth fairy either but why would mummy pretend to be a magical intruder in a tutu and put a coin under my pillow in the night just to make me believe?

It looks like the club don't rate him and plenty of fans too. He'd be better at club that is going somewhere anyway. Funny enough Owens is probably the most disappointing of the 2021 crop at this point and the only one likely to be with us next year.

That's so us

I didn’t see the post match interview, but have thought Nas was gone since his interview post the Melbourne game. If both he and Windy go, plus maybe Marshal, I’m worried how next year will pan out. Memberships, the question mark over RTB. Seriously, when is the wheel going to turn for this club?

 

[SainterinSydney]

Maybe the family issue is very sensitive so he is trying his best to keep it quiet before he tells the folks? I bet he is trying his best to not let it out.

I know you like to doomsday things but I'm fairly sure Windy will stay.

 

[botts]

Will Nas get a concussion test after that hit in the last couple of minutes? It is possible he just played his last game for us.

Hope so. If he’s leaving. Let it be done now

 

[Steele2King]

All the so called ITK’s that have been saying that Nas is staying just took the easy option. Either he signs and they look like hero’s or he leaves and they say “things can change quickly”. Can’t lose, except poor us who get our hopes up.

But he is our best small forward

Or they are all correct and all the body language masterminds in this forum are blabbering

 

[SG34]

Would be funny if he signs with Cats on $800k a season, but also ends up with 40 hectares.

It's real. I heard a Collingwood fan on SEN this morning tell the world about how Collingwood players are set up after football. With the business connections these guys like McQuire and co have in developments, stadiums, media etc., who is teo tell how much can be not quite promised, but ast least 'suggested' to players about how their families can be set up for life ? This stuff is not in the soft cap or any cap. It's implied and under the table, or even above the table, for business and politics is based on connections and relationships. These days, the gap between the connected, the have nots, the cancelled, the unforgiven has never been bigger.

Only saw the post game with Cam Mooney but it did seem like Moons was giving him every chance to say something about “we are building towards next year” and Nas seemingly chose his words very carefully.

Windy moving out also seems like a bad sign. Nas is clearly someone who likes a close group around him so it seems strange Windy would move unless for a reason.

I was actually confident before tonight as well…

 

[gringo2011]

Everyone’s been saying the whole time, it’s only Nas who knows what he’s doing. So If you only consider Nas’s interviews, with mooney, and tonight, he’s gone. You cannot tell me otherwise.

But SOS will come in late and offer what he wants once he's already made the call to leave, so it's almost as good as him staying.

 

[stavro#4]

Would suggest you watch the interviews. If you still believe this after that, I'd like some of what you're smoking.

f me that's some pure uncut copium, can you pass me on your dealer's deets?

I haven't seen the tooth fairy either but why would mummy pretend to be a magical intruder in a tutu and put a coin under my pillow in the night just to make me believe?

Well if you actually listen to the audio above.

“Obviously spoken to manager and my family aswell - they are included in my decision”

Sounds like he has already made his mind up - which falls in line with Tony the other day doesn’t it?

 

[buck12]

Hope so. If he’s leaving. Let it be done now

Kind of agree. I’d rather not watch him dominate for one last time. Will only make it harder if he goes. If he’s staying however …

 

[XhazzafootyX]

As much as I wanna believe the ITKS- he looks good as gone

Shame- he is my favourite player right now

We’re gonna get stooged in a trade

 

[botts]

**** me that’s damning.

 

[SainterinSydney]

 

[gringo2011]

If we have a mass exodus I'm using it to break free of this club. I'd get my winters back and be a more productive person.

 

[DarkSaint]

From our current group watching them play the last 2 years i honestly dont care who stays and who goes. Almost at full strength we have limped over the line against some average opposition at best over the last month or so.

Bar 4 or 5 players none of them deserve over 500k (Nas, Wilkie, Higgins and Sinclair and maybe one more).

Our line coaches and even Ross havent covered themselves in glory this season either.

 

[akaifu]

Wasn't it already said here a month or two ago that Windy was moving out? Or was that somewhere else? Because it was definitely said somewhere BEFORE all the trade talk started

Same as it ever was

That is surprising. He is our most dangerous forward so I don't really understand this. He only had 4 disposals tonight, but it looks a lot better when 3 of those are goals.
