List Mgmt. 2025 List Management discussion - part 2

[Geezington]

Apparently everyone is SA knows Nas is going to Port, and nobody at Saints or his manager know, if that’s true, massively poor form from the kid, and I doubt it’ll be a happy farewell if that’s the case

NAS is going to take port from 13th to 12th they have some of the worst players of all time going no where very fast

 

[hangdog]

What’s the NFA mean ?

Non-Free Agent

I copy and pasted from FootyWire

Port have a handful of good players then nothing. They are cooked.

Even if they get NAS they are going to suck.

If he leaves, surely he goes to Adelaide. Who would want to play for this mob, they are terrible!

They have been top 4 for years and having a down year with heaps of good youth. If they get coaching right I think they'll go back up with Nas.

Not even SA know what's going on

 

[BrutThough]

But Windhager should be sent packing because he wants $800?

When he was strictly tagging, he wasn't worth 800k.

I'd hope his offer has increased after this last 6 weeks.

Always amazes me, the general conspiracy nutting that is.

South Aussies know, but, since we're bullshitting, n one else does, anywhere, not even the people involved, because it's all very hush hush, except in South Australia where it's very open and free and everyone tells everything to everyone.

Friggen wild, wish they could put such tech towards keeping lights on during summer instead of the consistency of their grid shitting itself and browning out.

Yep, port are cooked, if Nas wants to play for Port he doesn’t really care about winning, just being home near his mummy

Lot of unhinged stuff on this thread but this is right up there

I’m not saying this is true, I’m just quoting the “powers that be” I think he’ll stay tbh, not sure if that’s more delusional

 

[botts]

Just got back from a long walk. Was listening to Carlton Port on MMM.

BT, Brayshaw, Smith and Kate McCarthey all doubled down on how confident Joey was yesterday. Almost as if he knew something.

Post it

 

[gringo2011]

Probably.

I was wanting to say 3rd rounder but figured GWS may push back hard on that given he was a first round pick.

So was Jack Billings and Blake Acres.

The whole country does after his interview last night, except for some people posting in this thread apparently

 

[gringo2011]

Schoey not showing lockdown capabilities though.
Another Aaron Siposs, he is, I reckon.

Siposs was alright but Richo got rid of a lot go guys who were bought in before him to design his own side. I think he could have been a player at a better run club. Maybe we need to send him forward or to a wing.

We've already sent Arie to a wing and he's doing ok - which might not be enough for another contract

 

[thekizzler]

The bulk of our last 2 drafts played AFL last night.

Most of the players at Sandy today wont be on a list next year.

Exactly.

Eight first or second year players played last night, I believe.

That's the light at the end of the tunnel.

 

[Diehard Saint]

How have we mismanaged it?

If the guy wants to **** off what can we do?

Don’t spoil the media narrative with facts, please!

 

[Browny2Carlisle]

Yeah I think shoey and keeler are being a bit pigeon holed due to their size. Shoey looks like he’d be better at half forward and keeler is almost like a taller NAS rather than a key forward or ruck.

 

[Munga]

Has a player touted as leaving ever signed this late in a season and stayed?

 

[StPiper]

Alright, new coping mechanism unlocked.

NAS has signed an absolutely monster deal with the Saints. 25m over 12 years or whatever that b**lsh*t Harley Reid offer was. Everyone desperately trying to keep it under wraps. Nas awkward as hell in interviews cos he’s about to be the richest bloke in AFL history.

I now choose to read every inconsequential word, side eye, body position, hand gesture from all stakeholders through this lens. Happy days.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Let's wait and see. If he goes its been a complete cluster **** of mismanagement.

Not only the negotiation but also the communication around it.

Well there’s been no communication around it. No leaks either.
So I don’t think that’s a bad thing.

 

[SaintsofSteel]

I would delist a lot before Shoey.

Carrol, Boyd, Cordy, McLennan, Jones, Dow, Collard (trade), Henry. I dont think Shoey is in any danger but dumber things have happened under SOS's list management.

 

[Diehard Saint]

Dusty
De Goey
…I believe.

 

[BrutThough]

Dusty, Gaff, De Goey

Dustin Martin was two weeks later than this.

Jordan De Goey was in late September.

I'm sure there are plenty of others but they are probably the only two worth mentioning.
