News NWM stays at Saints (Will Faulkner wrong about being crows bound)

[tryonthis]

I'll drive Jack Whitlock to the airport myself. Heck, I'll drive him all the way and drop him off at the front door of Moorabbin.

 

[Portmagpies36]

That’s the closest I’ve ever seen to throwing a game.

Since last night?

 

[Rash]

Im confident he comes to Port next season

I don’t think beating Melbourne while playing for Saints would change his mind if he wanted to come back home

watching last night would change his mind though

we have to hope the horny boy and jr burger holds enough pull.

 

[#Port Patriot#]

Finally some sense
He is not playing like he is leaving

Can say that about a lot of players. Houston last year knew he was potentially leaving close to 100% before mid way through as did Ken and others in coaching panel yet he still played to his AA level and remained top 5 player and an AA..



Dunkley at the Dogs prior to leaving also did the same...

 

[PJ Power]

That 666 stuff up at the end will be folklore

Anyone notice how quickly NWM ran to receive that pass. Meanwhile Pickett was caught completely napping in the centre-square and didn't start running to chase him until he was 20m up field.

NWM is such a smart, cool footballer.

If I was a player, I would have more faith in Ports list with Carr at the wheel, than Saints.

Maybe I’m biased. Maybe not

 

[PJ Power]

I can't see him leave the Saints after this. 4 years would take him to RFA. Maybe we should just hope for that.

 

[Rash]

nas so nonchalant

the clowns next door worry me, we dont want them getting in his head

 

[davesnothere]

What the place hadn’t been burnt to the ground?

People need to care.

 

[240volt]

Nah how can you throw a game playing Jed,Mead,Boak,Berry and Lord.

 

[Rigs]

I feel his friendship with Jase and Horney is too strong for him to want to play for the Crows

 

[kgerlach01]

Some of the comments here are so delusional its like watching Arsenal Fan TV on YouTube.

 

[#Port Patriot#]

I can't see him leave the Saints after this. 4 years would take him to UFA. Maybe we should just hope for that.

RFA not UFA and Saints can match the offers put out forcing a trade.

 

[Jojay]

He's got his Uncle Gavin's genes that's for sure.

He'll love getting smacked by the crows though

 

[Wargreymon90]

If butters is indeed contemplating leaving…

 

[Schulzenfest]

If butters is indeed contemplating leaving…

We need both.

 

[240volt]

If butters is indeed contemplating leaving…

Well that’s it, if he’s going to go basically what we get for him will end up with StKilda.

Crap. Playing like someone who is playing to massively increase his contract.

Got into the bar at my club after junior footy. All the kids having something to eat and the parents a drink. Not 1 person watching the game. By the end the place was buzzing watching HIM. Best player in the comp. Whatever it takes. I have faith in Carr not wasting our talent!

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Just imagine though if there's no announcement of a signing this week.

 

[Young Gun #6]

If he doesn’t sign this week or at least just put Saints fans out of their misery and stress this week with a simple ‘I’m staying and we’ll work out the details in the offseason’, he’s gone imo.

Doesn’t have to sign the paper right now and he may want to wait for more money, or for saints to sign up TDK and Aleer first for cap reasons. However, a simple I’m staying with how much stress Saints fans have right now is all he needs to do.

No indication of signing this week after that performance on the weekend and he’s almost certainly gone imo.

There’s literally zero reason after a game like that to not reward their fans with a simple I’m staying, or a contract signature.

Dan Houston rolling out an All Australian year in his last.

Patrick Dangerfield's best year at the Crows was his last.

The same Saints fans who put out a massive memo to all Saints fans saying cheer loudly at the 7 minute mark for Nasaih yet it was crickets. They'll cheer and then they'll do what the Saints and other Vic clubs and supporters do best... Boo him when he leaves and make him out to be this big bad meanie.
