List Mgmt. Josh Kelly to North | PConnors - Kelly would come home for family reasons -NBowen says NM $10m/9yrs

[Kanga1996]

Ablett did $8mil over 5 years our offer doesn't even compare to that. Step up North get the cheque book out

Who knows what the real figures are from anyone but we can afford both. Its more the question if Dusty will be playing for North next year. Kelly was done months ago.

Agree

 

[Unity-28]

werent all the media reporting a week or so ago, that he was likely to re-sign with gws? now all of a sudden, 4 clubs in the mix....?

it just proves they know s**t about the situation....

Really hope you're right re Kelly! How can you be so sure?

Because I am friends with Dr Dolittle who is friends with Kobe.

 

[Kanga Glory]

Gut feel is always best. As soon as it was mentioned 6 months ago I thought he was coming home. Dad played for north, josh barracked for north, he is playing for a plastic franchise, wants to come home, offered absurd money for a young man, can be the man at the club he loved.

 

[Danni_Benson]

Well on that basis it's a certainty then

 

[Zondor]

I think what the Media are forgetting is that the Ace up our Sleeve in these Contract Negotiations is our Exclusive Partnership with Tender Touch. :stern look

 

[The Dingrel]

ROFL Brett Anderon on AFL live before saying North are putting all their eggs into one basket because they already know theyre not getting Kelly.

All he says "I think" over and over. Stick to your under 18s mate.

Kelly's own words from that media clip "yes I'm very excited, but right now I'm just focussing on tomorrow night's game".......implies he's excited about something else!

Maybe he was heading to Tender Touch.

Works out to be around ~12% of our cap.

What morans on other boards fail to understand is players don't always get paid the same amount every year. 12% may seem like a lot but if managed well it really isn't. Kelly + Martin in our cap is the same % we were paying Carey way back when.

They always consider the cap as a fixed number, the media is guilty of it as well.

As we all know we've been paying unders which we can now use on top of the cap. What we dont know is just how much of our higher end talent we've already front loaded. It could be that we can front Kelly and Martin big in the first 3 years bringing that percentage way down.

Five 200 gamers left last off season, players like Waite, Hansen, Scooter, Gibbo are out of contract plus we have 11 players debut this year.

And that is without possible trades perhaps Goldy, Swallow and LT.

Not sure where the media get the idea these long term deals are too big an investment.

Good pickup.

I would presume he's referring to being excited about their finals series coming up.

They asked him about the upcoming finals.

 

[andana]

Doc. What's the plan Marty?

Marty. I'm going back to 2011. Draft Phil Kelly. Play him as the sub til he gets to 100 games. Get Josh under f/s.

Doc. So we get Josh & Lmac! Nice work.

Great Scott!

 

[FastLife]

Hasn't signed a new deal yet it's round 23
North have offered reportedly 10 mil over 9 years.
JK grew up supporting the club and his father played over 50 games for the club

I'm thinking his coming. Plus don't give me BS about winning premierships at GWS.

 

[Carlos Herrrnandez]

If there was the slightest chance he would go to Carlton...

...that's gone now.

 

[Jonnoo]

JK still on donuts half way through 1st. Hard to tell on tv, but possibly getting tagged (by Guthrie )

Kelly will run him into the ground Shane Crawford style

Hopefully that continues and dents his confidence a little and he thinks 'shite, I better sign that NMFC contract asap before my value drops!'

Which should be more enticing for Kelly and Martin means their $$& investing can happen 3 years earlier.

 

[LETSGOKANGAS]

What was Phil's number?

Thinking we ice this by giving Josh his old mans number.
