Player Watch Daniel Curtin

[FR0GGY]

West Coast needs a new target.

Georgiadies, pick that carcass.

 

[Shuestar13]

Hopefully West Coast pay the piper for Reid before Curtin's next contract comes up or land some big names.

Allen going, McLovin retiring - They're cashed up to the absolute **** right now...

Plenty of salary cap space, but for a club in our position, attracting free agents or trade targets is the issue.

Will be a fair chunk earmarked for Harley.

We need a solid ruck and key defender. Reading your changes thread, would happily take Butts if we could get him, he’d be great

 

[Pugsley]

Georgiadies, pick that carcass.

No Butters or Bergman next year. They will need someone to stay

Alright, that’s good stuff!

Dizzy stuff, even

Why not?

Really happy to see the AFC being a "go to club" rather than a "get me out of here club". Curtin's is already a impressive player and he is still developing. Great re-signing.

 

[BunjiMC]

No need to be worried.

Told you a new deal was imminent.

Very happy. And got the three year extension.

 

[Kane McGoodwin]

For all Nicks' many, many flaws he deserves some credit for turning around the club in this respect

Make him Football Manager & bring in a new coach.

 

[LiquidCrow]

This is fantastic news, congratulations to Dan and the club for working this out!

Had heard he was homesick last year, so very pleased he has committed - a three-year extension is more than I expected.

playing a few more AFL games has been huge for me

“On-field, I’ve added a lot of things to my game, and gained a lot of knowledge just from being out there and experiencing AFL footy.

“To have had a bit of an extended run in the AFL team this year has been huge for me and my confidence,” Curtin said.

“The boys backing me in has really helped as well, them kicking it to me, telling me where to go, it’s been huge for me.”

But Draper should play SANFL apparently.

But Draper should play SANFL apparently.

High end talent should be prioritised for this reason.

But Draper should play SANFL apparently

Dan is in his 3rd year and Sid is a rookie. Different circumstances.
But agree that next year Sid should get more regular time.
Our midfield will most likely change in the off season.

Our midfield will most likely change in the off season.

Dan is in his 2nd year & should have played more than 2 games as sub last season.

2nd year, not 3rd.

The big issue with Sid isn't the midfield changing, it's that we have tunnel vision with Sid being in the midfield. Really, there is no reason why Sid isn't on the half forward flank as a 7th forward seeing how unsettled we are with our options in that role.

Was just about to post this quote.
“To have had a bit of an extended run in the AFL team this year has been huge for me and my confidence,” Curtin said.”

If I was doing a re-draft, based off of potential shown to date:

1: Reid
2: O’Sullivan
3: Caddy
4: Morris
5: Curtin
6: Freijah
7: Sanders
8: McKercher
9: Wilson
10: Windsor

Are you missing Watson?

 

[WAG]

Awesome news! Great extension for all parties. Particularly with his seemingly rocky/uncertain start.


Can't help thinking though, based on past experience, that when we release this type of news, its to offset some sort of incoming **** up!

 

[TRP1996]

West Coast needs a new target.

Just chuck an extra several hundred thousand on their offer to retain Harley.

 

[spenze]

3 Years?

Rob will be jealous

 

[Danger in Texas]

Are you missing Watson?

I forgot about him, but honestly he’d only be above Windsor

 

[Mutineer]

 

[Matman23]

Huge for the club. Had every reason to hold off till the end of the year. Including seeing where his brother lands. Both WA teams have been in his and his families ear.
The club is doing something very positive in this space and I have a feeling Rory Sloane

has something to do with it.
He speaks very highly of the importance of getting people here to Adelaide rather than sending players home to see family and friends. I love watching him in the media because he still refers to Adelaide as “we”. Makes me think he still has a role at Adelaide and I think it’s working.
