List Mgmt. 2025 List Management discussion - part 2

[projectv]

The only negative I got from that segment is that I reckon Windy might be leaving.

 

[Captain Paddy]

My between the lines takeaways:

1. Windy is out of favour and could be out the door.

Yeah, the really quick “Windhager is uncontracted” line didn’t fill me with confidence.

 

[marcus1232]

The only negative I got from that segment is that I reckon Windy might be leaving.

See I didnt get a read at all because nothing was said

 

[Pakenhamsaint]

Why would Eddie have better mail than Ross.

Ross doesn’t seem to want to say much so maybe Ed should get back in his box and let everything play out in good time.

Ed is one of the most connected in footy.

 

[thekizzler]

If Windy leaves, what do we get for him in a trade?

 

[Ads734]

If Ross is calling Rucci a nuffie, I’d hate to hear what he’d call Gringo.

 

[projectv]

See I didnt get a read at all because nothing was said

Yes, nothing was said about the uncontracted player. That's the point.

 

[marcus1232]

Yes, nothing was said about the uncontracted player. That's the point.

As i said earlier I think him and Nas are intertwined.
No mail just a gut feeling

 

[botts]

This is why we sacked ratts.

 

[white knuckler]

Another prime example of why Ross is our coach. Players love him, doesn’t buy into media BS and not afraid to bite back.

 

[StCicatriz]

Can you imagine richo or ratten trying to front the media like that

 

[ScrappyDo]

Yeah, the really quick “Windhager is uncontracted” line didn’t fill me with confidence.

It's great to have leaders and standard setters amongst the group, but they get paid to win games of footy. I'm sure they know Windy's proper worth.

 

[projectv]

As i said earlier I think him and Nas are intertwined.
No mail just a gut feeling

We can hope. It is strange that they live together and neither have signed.

 

[SaintlyHymns]

The only negative I got from that segment is that I reckon Windy might be leaving.

I think Saints clearly have a lower ceiling on Windy's output than he and his management do.

Which hurts because he's a home grown academy kid and has actually come on really well recently.

I think he'll shop himself around and see what interest there is, take it to the Saints with the idea of them getting a win win on $ and length of deal and hopefully re-signs.

As long as parties are comfortable that this is how business gets done these days.

 

[botts]

Someone tell Ed the roundabout rule is not give way to the right, it's give way to those in the roundabout.

Pet hate!!

Bugger getting in a car with you

 

[Flandersss]

Can you imagine richo or ratten trying to front the media like that

Gday saints fans

 

[True Believer]

Has anyone been paying attention to the moon phase lately

I ****ing live for them!

 

[Saint Shags]

On Wilkie - Cal called him at 6.30pm tonight saying I dont know where the rumours ahve come from but i love the club

Even the report from Ralph last night said that he wasn't going anywhere. But did state that he had concerns.

Like any place of employment staff will be concerned with the powerbrokers moves if they dont have all the information.
We seem to forget that they human.

On Steele/Marshall - You dont trade contracted players

But you do if the price is right. No other reason for him to bring up the Kelly scenario. Would suggest Marshall and Steele very much in play as has been the case all year.

So I wouldnt be surprised to see them still potentially go.

On Nas - Played a straight bat but sounded positive I guess

Eddie's news was promising. Just give us the announcement.

And he never said the club have never spoken to Reid. His words were he hadn't.

 

[Dr Spaceman]

Ross schooled them.

Morris upset by the chooks comment

 

[Sainterz12]

When talking about Nas’ improvement he also specifically mentioned Owens when it would’ve been easy to lump the 3 of them together. I wish they specifically pressed him on Windy so we could get a better read on the situation

 

[botts]

I think Saints clearly have a lower ceiling on Windy's output than he and his management do.

Yeah I reckon we come to the party a bit but he isn’t getting 850. He won’t get that anywhere. Plus clubs will have to trade for him

 

[Moorabbin Ghost]

The problem with Windhager is his management think he’s worth $800,000+ per season, the club think he’s not worth that. The club is right.

 

[sainterryan]

We can hope. It is strange that they live together and neither have signed.

He said Nas backed himself in to hold of talks and then deliver with his football. No reason why windy is not doing the same. Live together probably somthing they talked about.

 

[Murraj1966]

Ross said that “Tim’s got it wrong on this one” so he’s not only saying he himself hasn’t spoken to Harley but that Watsons report was wrong

 

[Diehard Saint]

Can you imagine richo or ratten trying to front the media like that

Yeah….nah…..
