List Mgmt. 2025 List Management discussion - part 2

[phantom13]

To be fair even the port supporters who have been frothing every nonce with a Twitter account saying anything about Nas said Ruch is a moron.

 

[Parkysp]

Log off for an hour and we are loosing nas, windy, Wilkie and Steele. Pack it up

You forgot my favourite. Darcy Wilson has so many red flags he likely won't make it as an AFL player.

 

[Tom12]

Marshall, Wilkie and Steele are all contracted until the end of 2027.

This sort of shit is just embarrassing for the dolts who broadcast it.

Do you not think we'll be exploring trades for Marshall and Steele?

Sensationalist tweet aside - I think it's more likely than not both are traded. We can't run back the same senior group even if Nas does stay.

 

[CHBench]

Nas 2 years away from free agency he reckons

To be expected from a Port Adelaide nuffie. Born and bred in Adelaide and has written a book about Port. Wouldn’t be stirring the pot at all.

 

[jumperfan]

Only Wilkie hasn’t been mentioned so far. Perhaps we need the money for Aleer.

If he's going to cost that much then he can GAGF

 

[crasha301]

For me, windy is the perfect type of player to pay a base wage of 650k with bonuses.
Bonus:
50k for top 4 BnF finish
50k for winning BnF
50k if we play finals
50k for x amount of Brownlowe votes
50k if we finish top 4

For 2 or 3 year contract, by the end of that both he and the club will exactly know why type of player he will be, it he improves ( along with claiming the bonuses) he can than ask for the guaranteed 900k plus contract.

 

[phantom13]

Marshall seems about as sharp as a box of marbles (noting I love few players more than the big lump) but if he’s not looking at TDK and assessing his options elsewhere, he’s dumber than even I thought.

Steele no idea, could see it but seems like a guy we might value more than other clubs.

Wilkie surely not.

 

[St Neil]

So many questions?

So many scenarios?

So many hypotheticals?

No actual insights or specifics.

Which isn’t surprising.

Let’s panic

 

[St Neil]

But they are clueless. It’s obvious they have no idea.

The contracted players can’t do anything unless it suits the club.

But no mention of that.

They are implying the players will just leave if they want to. They can’t.

 

[Saint Shags]

Wilkie surely not.

Wilkie is the purely outlandish one.

Steele has been mentioned here for months from those that have inside word on here.

Same for Marshall.

And theres also been mention of Windy not being a necessary favourite. And therefore the talk of being lowballed isn't super far-fetched.

So whilst everyone is quick to laugh and call that particular SEN team various names. How much is actually beyond the realms of possibility? 1 definite and a maybe

 

[Diehard Saint]

Just got into the car, switched on SEN and they’re discussing Wilkie???
Is he out of contract too? WTH?

Also discussing how well Ross is developing Windy. There’s no way in hell we let him go. Agent just putting in the squeeze.

 

[botts]

So the unplugged boys seems confident and our ceo seems confident but the gooch has better insight. Not sure but would like it to be over

 

[St Neil]

Who knows.

But they certainly don’t.

 

[fpm84]

 

[botts]

Zero chance Wilkie goes anywhere. Ross knows he is the only one holding the backline together. The other two are contracted so it’s up to us. Windy hopefully we should sort out but nas is gone

 

[SainterinSydney]

Wilkie is in our top 3 most important players. If we traded him, we should shut up shop.

 

[Diehard Saint]

A nice, uplifting read for your Monday. Thanks Buddy. I’ll be crying myself to sleep now.

There’s always an outlier.
Nas is ours.

 

[SainterinSydney]

Wait, so it is now Wilkie is leaving, TDK is going to Geelong, Nas is going, Windy is going. What zee %^&* is happening?!

Also, what recruits are we spending $2.5 million on if TDK doesn't come?! Liam Ryan and Aleer?

 

[TheJackal]

Log off for an hour and we are loosing nas, windy, Wilkie and Steele. Pack it up

You missed the news about TDK asking us to trade him to any other club after his first year. Clause in his contract after we give him $2.5m in the first year apparently.

 

[botts]

Wilkie is in our top 3 most important players. If we traded him, we should shut up shop.

We won’t trade him. Untouchable and contracted.

 

[Mat Mann]

So again.

TDK blown out of proportion, nowhere near the reported figure.

Nas way under, miles over the reported figure.

Come on. Pick a lane.

Wrong tree to bark at

I haven’t picked a lane, I haven’t commented on NAS, other than to say I fear he is going
I believe the TDK figure of $12m is inflated as most RFA figures are

And I worry that we have too many players chasing a payday or personal stuff over team success.

We lost to WC. Barely beat North and Richmond and recorded 4 45point thrashings, played some appalling footy along the way, yes a few decent ones as well, but we are not yet ready to contend

 

[Diehard Saint]

SA journo trying to destabilise the club.
I wonder why?

( Please don’t tell me he is with Nas’ manager too)
