Love the spirit of the North supporters here.

You've offered Kelly 400k pa, and more years than we have. And he'd still prefer to come to Carlton.

That's as big an indictment as any on the irrelevancy of your club

You're arguing over nothing.

Whether or not that rumour was spot on is irrelevant. The two guys on our board have got plenty right.

That was the original point.

You GWS posters need to chill the **** out.
Carlton fans need to calm the **** down and not think every player followed them as a kid.

You have to blame the club for putting out the leak about the massive offer. All it's done is stall Kelly from signing with GWS. It's made him aware of the potential money on offer and now, late in the day, other clubs are coming in. He can now choose where he will get both money and success.
The early offer has also got North supporters hopefull in a year where they're on the decline. Last year with the way Essendon were performing, any snippet of good news was welcomed. I'd imagine it's the same for bottoming out clubs.
 
"Kelly is staying at GWS" is the default position for supporters of any club which has chased Kelly, but he is not interested in going to (ie. Norf/Tas, Essendon*, Hawthorn, StK)

What's the collective brain trust's explanation as to why he hasn't signed with GWS?
Well supposedly,

If we win a flag he will go.
If we dont this year he will then sign on for 2 more years.

No one wants to go to Carlton. North have 25 fit players left and if they win today they could still finish above Carlton. Kelly would prefer to go to a team that wants to win, not a team that wants to collect draft picks and plays defensive to limit the damage.

That is just the narrative.

Why doesn't he sign up anyway and get the club more leverage in a trade?

Fact check.

NMFC didn't leak. Leak came through a media stooge for Kelly's management.

Ah right, he's going to the Blues now is he?

Carlton beat Hawthorn only last week. How does that amount to wanting to collect draft picks?

No one wants to come to Carlton? Only last year Marchbank wanted to come to us, when Collingwood had the bigger offer in front of him.

You are very confused, it seems.
 
I'm calling BS

Oh well, that's that then. :)
Carlton didn't beat Hawthorn last week.

Call whatever you want, but I don't come here to make things up.
Did you listen to the Marchbank interview and what drew him to Carlton. Of course not.

Kelly isn't playing for GWS 2nds, no chance he goes to Carlton.
