I remember Port board debating NAS for Houston last year, and they many felt that NAS for Houston was massive unders.

Has been exposed as a pretty limited player at the Pies. Meanwhile NAS has improved to just about the best player in the comp.
SOS should get credit for passing on Houston. We dodged a bullet there
 
Anyone got any ITKs?!?!?

Im hearing from my sources that its now down to two options. Nas either stays or goes.

Make of that what you will.
 
Presumably the AFL Commission decides what is reasonable, and exactly where they set that bar determines whether Nas stays or goes. But they like us don't they?
Well hopefully AFL commisioner Paul Bassat supports the same club as his brother.

Piling up the trash ain't gonna do it

We need quality not quantity

We have quantity. 1/3 of our list is utter trash we hope can become best 22. Dont need to pad that out.
Both Georgiadis and Curtin are from WA. Reid is from Victoria. Nas is from SA.

If the big Victorian players from SA wont come, then let's go down this road. Defacto, as king of Perth, can you use your powers to convince Harley?
 
What else do we get with Reid

More trouble with the umpires and the MRP, he gets into enough trouble at West Coast, it will be even more trouble with us.

That being said I wouldn't mind us getting him but he isn't worth 2 million bucks a year at this stage of his career.

my best guess right now is that Nas will nominate a move back to SA but not publicly state a club of preference, even if he has one. this will ensure a deal gets done with reasonable compensation and erases any threat of the PSD

both SA clubs have been invited to table offers, and they have both come back with comparable and life-changing money. neither have a clue which way he is leaning. all logic points towards his strong ties at Port, but his camp were also very quick to kibosh the Walker story. I think they are laying the ground for a bidding war and have been doing so for some time. outside of him staying, this is the next best result for us

I think Nas genuinely loves the club and his teammates and would want us to be looked after, even if that means subjecting his new club to an unnecessary bidding war. Maybe they both thumb their noses at this approach and he has to consider staying. If they both come to the table then privately we can try to get him to his club of choice (if he has one), but ultimately it seems he just wants to be back home, and the rest is details
 
So realistically what’s the best trade from either team.

Adelaide I see
Draper , Worral and a first round pick ?

Port
Berry
+ 2 firsts with at least one top 10 pick? Idk I hate both of them.

We can probably stop mentioning Curtin's name.

There is just no way it would happen.

He is looking like possibly being their version of Nas.

He is Western Australian, not a Victorian.

If they Crows successfully trade for Nas (which I don't think they will), Rachele and Soligo would be small chances to included instead of 0%.

They would pretty much be the only attainable Adelaide players that I would be interested in, assuming we had to take a disappointing trade for Nas.

They are getting closer to being fair for us (still not there) but there is no way the Adelaide one happens.

I could see us being screwed with the Port option though.

Something is going to have to give. you can’t just trade for a top 3 22 year old.

Let's say Noah Anderson had enough of Dimma. Wants to come play with the Saints. His Dad's club.

Would you consider trading Tauru and Phillipou for him? It just would never happen. We wouldn't do it.

That's the same with Worrell, who is close to All Australian and Draper, who is an Adelaide native. It just ain't going to happen.
