Nick Stevens again

[mic59]

Now Nick is declaring himself proud to be a Blue and saying that he never nominated any particular club. What the hell does he mean by that? Does he mean that Port are lying or, as I suspect, is he using the literal truth in that Max Stevens told us on his behalf. I'm really beginning to warm to the idea of bribing the Bulldogs to take him instead of Jade Rawlings in the pre-season draft. I can understand the homesickness and the family ties but to lie so that the club that went out of its' way to nurture his skills is portrayed as the villain is the act of a grade-A bastard.

 

[Portia]

Yes, we know he's lying scum. He's obviously doing this so he can seem more Carlton, and I think this sort of statement succeeds in doing that in more ways than one.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

I am sick of Nick and Max Stevens using any media opportunity to sling barbs at Port Adelaide and basically accuse the club of lying about Nick's intentions in trade week. Port have stated they have written documentation about Nick's intentions - then publish it. Give it to Rucci, he'll run the story - he's been less than complimentary about Nick and Max thru this whole affair - in fact leading up to it. It's about time the club got on the front foot and made a public declaration about who is in fact telling porkies here.

Nick Stevens we will never forget you. But Unfortunately for you, its for all the wrong reasons.

You would of thought it was better just for him to just keep his mouth shut.

Any bets he misses the Port match at Football Park through injury or suspension?

“Not once did I say what club I wanted to come to. I just wanted to come back and play footy in Melbourne,” he said.

Nick, either youe a lying bastard, or your manager is getting his pockets lined by not looking after your best interests.

I think Nick is just playing with words, he notified the club my email, so Nick is correct in his own thinking.

Nick is a good footballer but he has **** for brains!

[PowerGirl36]

How about you learn how to type intelligently?

Btw, I heard him on 5AA yesterday afternoon. You could tell KG & Cornsey wanted to say more but they were too polite. Damnit. "I never nominated a club. I always wanted to go somewhere like Carlton" - shutup. If you did, you would have accepted the deal. Man I hate him. Absolute scum.

SUNDAY JULY 11 - Counting down the days (227 to go )

Funny how not much was said about Byron Pickett going home last year.

I'm just making a devil's advocate point, I know you will say Anthony Rocca this blah blah blah, it's just weird how some players get away with it and some don't. Oh and hi to Nick Davis as well

 

[koutawalker]

Remember earlt on in trade week how Carlton was his number 1 choice then all of a sudden changed to Collingwood. He played it smart. He was always going to go to Carlton but didn't want them to give up the number 2 pick. Port just couldn't see that and PowerGirl36 he wont be counting days until his contract expires because in 4 years Carlton will be a premiership threat.

My only comment is that we gave up a first and a second round pick (picks #15 & #35 before Carlton's penalites) last year for a flanker in Pickett who had played VFL that season.

So are you concerned with the fact that you're spending $500k per year on a traitorous scumbag? Or is that that water off a duck's back for a Carlton supporter?

Unlike Collingwood, Port has never been accused of trying to get players for nothing.
You are not going to come here and start doing that now are you?

Its St Kilda Syndrome, aka "Winning in the Off-Season".

I read somewhere about a possible 4 year contract. Typical Carlton.
Use all their money (and then some) on a few players that aren't necessarily worth it, and then players like Hamill are forced to leave because of it.

Natahn Brown is getting $550k a year and Nick Stevens is getting $450k a year. If i had to choose out of these two i know who id chose.

We aren't overpaying someone because Richmond is.

Cmon now that is hardly an argument

Well i agree with u. Kouta and Stevens are overpaid and thats why we dont have a good list because we dont have enough money for other players like Hammil. If the CFC thinks were going somewhere in the next couple of years then they can think again until we stop overpaying our players.

And no one in the comp is worth $500k+. Look at Brisbane they'd only dream of that much money and thats why theyre so succesful.

No. Carlton supporters will think nothing of gaining Nick Stevens for free but their blood will continue to boil everytime they see Aaron Hamill.

Just as Port supporters probably aren't too sympathetic with Essendon getting only Daniel McAlistair in return for Gavin Wanganeen.

Makes up for getting Lloyd when Freo took Delaney or whoever I guess. Can't win all the compensation lotteries

Well, considering we only got a transfer fee for Gav originally...(I'm pretty sure they got Jason Johnson as compensation too, btw)
