Recommitted Leek Aleer - likely to re-sign with the Giants after St Kilda walked away

[bird_man]

After you wanted him and told him to nominate Saints
You get the deal done
How do you think other player managers are going look at Saints now ?

Not if you are forced to pay overs. We definitely aren't the first club to walk away because a club was asking too much and I doubt we will be the last.

Lets see if any other clubs are prepared to give up a second rounder for him. I reckon he ends up going into the PSD

You don't walk away from an uncontracted player at the start of trade week because of trade demands. You wait for the other side to give in and the deal gets done in the last 15 minutes like 90% of uncontracted player moves.

Either this is a bluff to try and get GWS to accept less. Or Stkilda are walking away for other reasons.

You think a second rounder is overs for a guy your club wanted to pay 700k a year for?

disagree there.

Hopefully stays.

 

[Count_Zero]

Could not or didn’t bother?

would you give a f2 for him?

Then dont ask him to NOMINATE Saints then you have just shafted him and player managers are going to remember this

Shambles of an admin over at Moorabbin. Someone check their budgeting

Quite possible they were expecting Geelong's 1st for Marshall and Geelong have said that they are only willing to trade their pick 40.

 

[Colonial]

would you give a f2 for him?

Would need to if we offered him 700k a season.

But yes I would, though don’t need to as we have a contract in front of him that hopefully he now takes.

 

[halfback dasher]

Dogs act …

 

[hawkmang]

No?

Is that a question?

 

[bzparkes]

Guess they couldn't afford him now that the Ryan deal has been finalised.

 

[bird_man]

Then dont ask him to NOMINATE Saints then you have just shafted him and player managers are going to remember this

Don't get him to nominate the Saints because we don't want to pay overs for an uncontracted player?

What do you think the Saints have done on every single player

 

[projectv]

I did say “after this”.

But you can’t say they didn’t struggle to sign players. A few names said no to big coin offers.

We signed Liam Ryan ten minutes later.

 

[Happy_Neale]

Dog move from St Kilda to court a guy then decide against it after he's already informed the club he wants to leave. First day of pre-season is going to be properly awkward

 

[BulldogMuscle]

 

[Colonial]

We signed Liam Ryan ten minutes later.

We shall see how this plays out

Eagles are more of a shemozle at the moment than any other club.

 

[kreuze_missile]

Surely a future 2nd isnt hardball

For everyone else, sure.

But St Kilda went out offering $800k per year, so GWS quite rightly would have wanted a return in line with perceived value.

Lucky St Kilda has signed their stars (LOL) already because they’ve burned any future prospects to the ground.

Imagine having $5m in cap tied up in NAS, TDK & Flanders.

Woooooooow.

 

[Amacca 23]

Don't get him to nominate the Saints because we don't want to pay overs for an uncontracted player?

No because you won't honour the deal you put forward for him to nominate your club its pretty simple

 

[Aristotle Pickett the3rd]

There's a week to go. You don't make this decision this early because the other party is 'asking too much'.

They're all in right now. As if they care about the draft next year.

They've signed Wilkie so they dont need necessarily need Aleer . Geelong are to blame for lowballing Stkilda with a turd of a pick for Marshall as well

 

[Stan_Darsh72]

Shambles of an admin over at Moorabbin. Someone check their budgeting

You mean how we paid 83%of the cap this year and front loaded deals to reach the cap floor of 95% and as a result can pay 105% next year?

Champ do some basic research before posting

 

[DT_35]

Liam Ryannnn. Getting shit done

Pick 7 for Flanders haha

 

[RWnBluey]

Crows should sign him then.

We dodged a bullet.

Saints fans not realising the bullet is their list manager

 

[bzparkes]

They've signed Wilkie so they dont need Aleer .

True but personally, I would've been under the assumption Aleer was a Battle replacement, not a Wilkie one, considering they started chasing him after Battle went to Hawthorn and Wilkie only shopped himself around because of what Aleer was rumoured to be offered.
