Spoiler: 2024 Draft Picks

 

[amaz199]

He didn't want to be at a smaller club, so in the end it's best for us if he never wanted to come here.

This part doesn't have as much impact as us not being keen on the picks we could've been forced to give up to get him.

Port wanted us to bend over. We told them to get ****ed.

Yay Brady!

 

[Roosurgence]

Port board taking it well:

“What is the point of this club existing anymore. Just get rid of it.”

One poster suggested they just give us Pick 13 as we will at least use it hahahahaha

 

[Devski]

Poooorta

 

[DocSholl]

I would assume Houston informed the Port Addled Football Club that he want to move to Victoria and if they don't make a deal happen he will be telling the market that he is nominating a club (and further reducing their bargaining position).

I'd have hoped Port's response would have been "well you shouldn't have signed an extension until 2027 then"

Instead it was "sure Mr Connors, whatever you say"

 

[Masked Avenger]

Only one Club gave up an A grader (Port) yet Gold Coast ended up with two first rounders.

Not bad work if you can get it
.

 

[Hearts to hearts]

O so pleased that the pies got their man, again…

The competition really needed Collingwood to have another win after missing out on finals.

They need to go all in before their older core retires. They need this F1 gamble to go better than the last one for it to be a big win.

 

[amaz199]

Yay Brady!

Hey look I'm not his biggest fan but the schnoz smelt some BS coming from a mile away.

The Houston stuff was defs happening if Port weren't ultra stingy.

That too.

choppy you can now breath easy

Connors isn’t stupid. Probably collects another payment for a new contract at the Pies plus whatever else they are throwing at him to do their bidding.

I’m happy to help..

 

[Shinboner1]

Starting to get over player managers and opposition clubs using North as leverage.

I'm starting to get over our club being shit, not developing players and delisting instead of using uncontracted guys as bargaining chips at the trade table.

 

[showusyacunningt]

Relieved to be honest. No doubt Houston would've come here and lost all of his confidence trying to kick to stationary targets.

Curtis Taylor would have really turned heads to get Houston across the line.

Starting to get over player managers and opposition clubs using North as leverage.

The easiest way for that to happen is for the club to come out and say we are not interested in the player..

 

[Devski]

WCE makes an awful trade
Port make an awful trade

Rawlings:

 

[Sillygit]

Port board taking it well:

“What is the point of this club existing anymore. Just get rid of it.”

Far, far too many people on this board saying the exact same thing for me to truly enjoy that.

 

[Samsquanch]

Jade Rawlings picks himself up a new job at Freo

That gives us a better than even chance next year. Two wins (potentially).

 

[Bren]

Relieved we didn't cave a potential top 5 pick for a 28yo... but relieved that we gave it a go and not sit on our hands

 

[Roosurgence]

I’m nervous now any time I see a Giantroo post as a poster has suggested Brady would be stupid enough to send out F1 to Port for Pick 13.

If he does hand us the gun Port.

 

[DrZaius]

You relieved? Me too, I was worried we could have got better there for a bit.

It's ok now you and others will have plenty of time next season to tell us all how if only we'd paid way way over the market rate for a flavour of the month HBF all of our issues at stoppage, lack of coherent forward structure, and inability to stem momentum swings would have been solved.

As they say, no Houston no North.

 

[archereleven]

Lol

What a shit trade haha

On SM-G991B using BigFooty.com mobile app

 

[Psicosis]

Starting to get over player managers and opposition clubs using North as leverage.

Yet despite this being clear as day that this was occurring, many here refused to accept it. More concerning is that the club continues to allow it to happen.

We should have pulled out of the race as soon as Dan/Connors told us were the third choice.

 

[Shinboner1]

Curtis Taylor would have really turned heads to get Houston across the line.

He could have easily been worth more than Joe Richards.
Too many players leaving for nothing or with 0 trade value after multiple years in the system. Laz lucky to be given a contract also
