Well several of the journos have run with it. Hopefully it is bs because it is terrible from Cal if it's true.

Come on.
One starts a rumour and the others jump on board.

Attempts to retain windy and nas?

 

[stavro#4]

All these stories are quoting Rucci.

Hated by the crows because of his Port biases.

But now this reporter knows how the leadership group at our club feels. With specific regards to:

• Marshall
• Nas
• list management
• Windhager
• Wilkie

What was the last Rucci breaking news on the saints?

Answer: Nothing.

He hasn’t written or broken news directly about us before.

 

[gringo2011]

The Wilkie story is so clearly bullshit. Footy journalism is in the doldrums.

Gaining legs.

 

[_Maximus_12]

The players need to understand that the list managers job is to try and improve the list to win a premiership. He’s not ‘the club’ specifically.

 

[Ads734]

I just question players being pissed off at list management finding ways to improve the list.

With respect to, someone as clever as Wilkie is not just a player. He is a super integral player who is as informed as anyone.

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

The stories are likely complete rubbish but…

Can we just play on the safe side here and pull the offers to TDK and aleer.

If TDK deserved superstar money then he would be playing like a superstar no matter what position or how he was being coached.
Marshall has a great connection with the team, is a top 5 ruck most of the time and can play on until Dodson takes over. Neither Marshall or TDK are any good forward.
Tauru overtook Aleer in his first damn game.

 

[Curunir]

TDK looking more and more like a mistake before he has even joined.

I think we've really been screwed that we can't weaponise our cap space like NBA teams can. Look at OKC and Houston, they bottomed out and used their excess cap space to bring in draft picks and younger high potential players, why can't clubs in the afl do that?

And why is this time different from all other times….





NAS.

 

[Holy Hunter Clark]

Mowman do you have any feelings on steven sivani's work at the club so far this time around?

Big fan I believe

 

[Joffaboy]

Wilkie and Marshall chaired off Jack Steele on the weekend. When two of your best mates are leaving or feel disrespected, I can see why Wilkie might be pised off. He is also probably on massive unders contract wise.

On 750k. Aleer 'reported' offered that but would be front loaded..
All this bs about 'bemused' etc is such garbage. They signed a contract for 750k, will sign an off season extension.
Jack Steele will go nowhere unless we want him to. I would like to see him stay.
Marshall can go, got beaten again on the weekend and if we can get a frdp for him, fine by me.
Hilarious that 'senior players' are 'peeved'. Holy hell we are in the bottom eight, second season in a row our tilt is finished before the bye.
Seems like some may have a mentality of being comfortable getting 6-800k a year and having September off.
So for the record, will be shattered if NAZ or Windy doesn't sign, don't want Steele or Wilkie to leave, and comfortable if Marshall leaves.
We are hamstrung by the AFL, I know some on here don't like the truth but we are because of the NGA's and FS.
We have Tassie compromising the draft from next season, if we can retain NAZ and Windy, pick up Aleer and TDK, and have a couple of frdps in this draft we offset the Tassie draft next season and set ourselves up with a good young list.

A very tightrope act SoS is attempting and really no net. If he pulls it off let the circle jerks abound, if it goes teats up pitchforks and tiki torches.

 

[Ads734]

I’m getting Philadelphia 76ers Trust the Process vibes

With Gringo as BrianColongelo burner.

 

[snails13]

He said that Wilkie is pissed about the way we have dragged out Nas's contract, and that Marshall has been left in the dark with the De Koning pursuit, and he is disillusioned with the list management and the direction of the club.

Just don't know what to think, kind of floored right

Let's give all our players $850 a season, dont recruit anybody and continue to be a 1 premiership club and forever be a bottom six team.

 

[stavro#4]

Gaining legs.

It’s not gaining anything. He literally refers to Rucci as the news breaker on agenda setters.

Both work for sen.

 

[beside the seaside]

Come on.
One starts a rumour and the others jump on board.

Let's hope so

 

[SaintJunior]

On a day when Cameron signs for Collingwood on massive unders we cop this shit.

Media how good are Collingwood how good if Cameron .

But not the Saints we are lowballing own over paying to recruit .

We are not a destination club we have to pay overs to attract players as the competition is not an even playing field.

fixture favours the big clubs, draft is stuffed due to concessions and free agency as been a disaster for the smaller clubs .

Geelong , Collingwood players take unders for the chance to succeed .

Look forward to seeing what our players decide on doing if there is any truth to any of this.

Personally think Rucci is doing Ports dirty work.

 

[puntking]

Why are people losing their minds over this news? Most likely BS even if not who cares, we are a basket case that have just got over the line vs a bunch of bottom 4 teams, trade/sack them all imo

As an Adelaide native, I unfortunately have a lot of mates who are Port fans. Even they say Rucci is a c**t with no credibility.

 

[phantom13]

I just question players being pissed off at list management finding ways to improve the list.

We’ve been waving the wallet around at the bar to anyone interested. Now we’re left with some dregs and our own wife going “where the **** was this cash all along”.

Plenty of posters flagged the potential fall out of the WARCHEST drums being beaten so loud.

Now to be clear, I’ve got no idea if any of it is true but it’s not exactly some unforeseen consequence.

 

[SainterinSydney]

I want a double announcement of Windy and Nas re-signing for 4 years.

 

[botts]

Bugger I hope this all work out. If I was in the team I would be pissed if the club fluffed around with nas’ contract and he left. Their chance at a flag goes down a lot if he leaves

 

[Joffaboy]

Anyway back to betamax, why was it considered a better format?

Better quality and Sony had the copyright. So when you went to the shops every brand had VHS players. Punters came to the conclusion VHS was obviously the superior product other why would every electronics brand manufacture them.
Greatest marketing blunder in history except for 8 track v cassette

 

[Sheepey]

Can we just play on the safe side here and pull the offers to TDK and aleer.

Tauru overtook Aleer in his first damn game.

No reason to pull them as they would make the team better. That being said, we should definitely reduce our offers to them.
