List Mgmt. Josh Kelly to North II - It's Over

[Danni_Benson]

What happened to the "agreement" that he was leaving this year? :stern look

Exactly. What absolute nonsense that was.

 

[lockheed]

If I get a cent for every word written in this thread, between now and the time that Josh's decision becomes public, I would be able to make a very significant donation to the club. Any takers?

Of course, I won't actually know what's happening until Josh, GWS or his management make the announcement.

 

[Snake_Baker]

There was no agreement per se. He was convinced to do the two years then reassess, having fulfilled his initial obligation to the club who gave him his start.

Toes knows.

 

[The Nostradamus]

I just think he will this time jump at the chance to come home and set up roots here

Gws will have 1 last year to challenge before a refresh imo, while we start overtaking them

Time for me to slap a cheeky $50 on their flag chances.

They’re at good odds too

$21 at the TAB

They’ll be a much better team with taranto playing shiels position.

 

[Firestarter]

They’ll be a much better team with taranto playing shiels position.

I'm hoping to finally end this jinx of chasing players from teams who coincidentally win the flag that year.

What’s Taranto’s contractual status ?
If Josh is gonna give us the run around all year, offer big money to Taranto

its all about the benjamins baby, and we gotta rock up to the party like..

One of these days it’s going to work.

 

[shinboner magic]

Yeh high profile targets not signing by mid-year has proven great news for us on the last 3 occasions.

We’ve got memories like goldfish

 

[DesertRoo]

We’ve got memories like goldfish

I don’t think goldfish memories is the problem.
We all seem doing the same thing, running down the same path, expecting different results. Which makes us...

Already well down the road in talks with Hawthorn.

Have you been hanging around the trade board?

 

[deano28]

Have you been hanging around the trade board?

Haha , no . Hawks have been keen for quite a while ... they believe he’s the Giants most important player .

They're keen on half the competition.

Been that way for 40 years.

Don Scott publicly admitted as much:

While I don't think it'll be a fresh start for them I do think after this year they'll take a step back. Both Kelly and Coniglio are gone I reckon.

 

[Kanga87]

I know we have the cash but we need to trade, what do you guys reckon he’s worth? Two first rounders and a mid-tier player or a first rounder and a gun youngster i.e. TT or LDU? I reckon GWS will play hard ball and demand unreasonable compensation, personally I don’t think he’s worth it, I think our midfield is set to be elite for the next decade and think the opportunity cost is too high, I would be incredibly angry with the club if our most recent 2 first rounders are considered in the trade

 

[Danni_Benson]

Josh posted a lovely video on Insta yesterday where he surprised his grandparents by arriving in Melbourne for his grandfather’s 90th birthday.

I’m hoping (i.e praying) that it’s moments like that that persuade him to come home (to North)!
