Players develop at different stages, Berry has really started to drive his legs from the contest and burst from stoppages with real speed likely because he's gaining confidence and it appears the coaches have him now playing way more offensively rather thn playing the defensive mid role he seemed to be pigeon-holded into previously. A lot more dynamism about his game now.

Just wish he'd accumulate a bit more.

WHEN Port lose Butter to the Dogs...

If Butters goes to the dogs they're winning the flag.

Might win one before he gets there.

If port lose butters this year they may well ve entering full rebuild territory right when Tassie come in. Nas will be coming out of contract end of next year and if we land Bailey this year and are right up around the pointy end of the ladder and finals, it might just tilt things in our favor to maybe convince nas to come to us over port. Bailey this year and nas the year after......

Also - discussion on the Hard Ball Gets podcast that basketball is leading the chase for Zemes Pilot, which would throw their plans.

Just gut feel, I think the JHF and other Port connections help.

Port have some tough years ahead but he is still young so if he did go to Port they are not going to stay down the bottom for his whole career

I doubt we could afford Bailey and NAS certainly not without pushing a few good players out.

For starters, I don't see him leaving but if he does, I see it as similar money and success over friendship.
He spent time with us through NGA I am pretty sure, Roughead was at StK when he was drafted as a talent manager and development coach and we're about to have the best facilities in the country.
Cousins with Milera, mates with Rankine, played with Ah Chee in the Indigenous All Stars game
A lot of links....

 

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

Did I read somewhere that we ditched the sell the farm mantra. Probably because we were saved from ourselves.....twice during the rebuild and one of those has seriously turned into a dud.

Harrison Petty?

 

[adelaidecrows]

Harrison Petty?

He is the one what im thinking of. JHF was the other. But JHF is not a dud.

NAS won't come to us. I am sure we will have an offer on the table again but it won't happen. We were only in it last time to help with the negotiations.

I think we are going all in on Bailey because he is the best player we have a genuine chance at in the next few years.

A few weeks ago, maybe a months or so, but someone and I cannot remember who posted it but the premise of their post was about people thinking negatively to avoid feeling disappointed, I have a feeling this is one of those times.

If you don’t believe he will come, that doesn’t get your hopes up and then you won’t be disappointed.

Unless he has NBA level talent, like Alex Condon at the University of Florida who had the potential to be an NBA lottery pick. He’s also has a alternative pathway contract with Collingwood if he chooses to take it.

But, I suspect many player would pick the AFL pathway over the NBL due to how many opportunities are available on lists as well as the level of salary paid.

 

[Mr MysteryGuest]

That’s exactly my point. Just because a club has just had a finals playing season, doesn’t mean they’re not going to spend the next 7 out of them. So when we and Port sit down with him, we both sell a rosy future full of playing finals. And he’ll believe Port just as much as he believes us if that’s where he wants to go. Assuming he even cares.

do you think Nas is stupid?

Hope I am wrong but we were clearly behind Port, six months ago. I don't think anything much would of changed.

For the record I think we are a real good chance for Bailey so not sure I agree with your post.

Who were clearly behind St.Kilda. Two years is a long time in football.

 

[Crow till I die]

NAS will also look at each teams list with his agent and assess what they think. Any objective person would look at both our lists and feel ours is miles ahead of ports in terms of competing bot now and going forward for some time to come. Port are entering rebuild territory should they lose butters right at the time Tassie enter the comp. If he was very keen on Port before, these factors might help sway him a bit back towards us if he wants to come back to SA.

 

[I Lost My Keays]

I reckon NAS will be a one club player at Saints

 

[hugecannon]

I could live with the lower production if he maintained that real manic tackling and defensive energy from his first few years, that has slipped as well as the lack of accumulation.

Reckon the love of Lyon will rub off if there is no finals success.

Isn’t Butts OOC this year? Certainly going to be some vic clubs sniffing around

I hope we can sign him to a long deal. He is quality
