How if WCE have first pick?

No club ever takes players who don't want to play there and it won't happen here

 

[stavro#4]

Meanwhile, on the Port Board, they are debating how Nas gets through 4 teams to Port for free in the PSD

Have they started regurgitating the freedom of trade act and Nas will sue the afl etc again?

No player anywhere near as good as Nas has gone to the draft since Nick Stevens.

He was trying to get to Collingwood and port felt they weren’t getting fair compo.

He ended up at Carlton in the PSD.

Not yet.

It is more the threat/possibility of the PSD which is the key factor. If we say that there is no way a deal can be done with the SA clubs, he will just sign with us for 2 years. And this is the key thing, there is NO indication that he is desperate to get out of the Saints.

Zero chance

So no more talk that mid second round pick Jack Whitlock is considered a FRP by port so that’s what he will be in a trade?

You mean Jack "Plugger Buddy" Whitlock?

IF he did want to get back to Adelaide, he wouldn’t risk the preseason draft IF homesickness is his reason. He just wouldn’t.

His mum is currently an hour flight to see her son. She might have to travel to the other side of Aus to see him soon if Williams hasn’t thought about this

 

[botts]

Neither sa club is prepared for nas. Just sign for two years with us and give them a chance to get 3 first rounders stocked. Zero chance of getting to the pre season draft but if he does he won’t get to either club. Can you trade pre season selection?

 

[stavro#4]

You mean Jack "Plugger Buddy" Whitlock?

Yes the apparent SANFL dominator.

We should ignore his 3 touch debut and rave about whatever he did in the magoos.

Young Gun #6 Young Gun #6 Young Gun #6

Apparently if you say his name 3 times while taking a shit he pisses off back to the Port board with a your shit on his head.

I might need to cap my posts. Captain Paddy will have a fit.

But the answer is no.

There were 29 picks that were not Luke Ball prior to Collingwood taking him in the 2009 draft.

 

[Sainter62]

Been to long now,no reason for him not to be signed.GONE.
Reckon trying to sort out which players are willing to leave Port is why nothing.
No use coming out saying he is leaving if ducks are not partially lined up .
Just hope,SOS and Co are really prepared to fight for a Judd like deal.
Naz leaving with Tassie coming in next years draft is probably the worst timing for any sort of equal compensation .

Isn't Tassie in the 2027 draft not 2026? Or have I missed something?

 

[stavro#4]

In other news. meltdown on the Carlton board might be worth reading.

 

[Rogue Warrior]

If NAS does intend to stay and they are in fact just arguing about cash. If NAS cares about St Kilda and wants it to be successful, surely at some point he realises the more cash his salary eats up, the less ability the club has to improve the list and for his supposed good mates to get paid.

 

[SainterinSydney]

Do you reckon this was Tony's mum when she first told him to barrack for the Saints

 

[phantom13]

That’s not how it works.

But sure.

Doesnt work to give a complete nothing statement to some true believers to keep em believing?

Sure Stav.

Ive got some burnt toast that sort of looks like a number 7 burned in there, means about as much as your comment.

The grinch doesn’t believe in christmas

I love Christmas, actual day of celebration, im just not gonna bust a nut over a bunch of Christmas organisers announcing second Christmas is totally coming, confident itll get approved.

When its done, ill celebrate, until then ill stay grounded about it.

 

[stavro#4]

He entered the ND. Refused any communication with any other club.

The PSD holds no fears for a club like WC st the bottom and dare I say even if he went into the ND. Someone picks him up before Port and takes him.

I think rich benefactors don’t just donate their money without cause and reason.

If you are selling something for them to donate. You best be giving them the reason for it.

Could any of those clubs banked Ball for a season to get minimum 2 first round picks the following year?


Yeh

Or he signs, becomes a Saint's legend and we build a bronze statue to him outside Moorabbin with his multiple Brownlows and premierships!

 

[stavro#4]

Yeah… so if you are sprouting a made up line that isn’t true… you burn your benefactors and thus they don’t contribute

If he went to the ND not a chance he makes it to ports pick 50 or wherever they pick 1st in this years draft
