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

[afl2004]

we can give aints worse, screw them over.

You forget , that we want to be loved by everyone except our supporters

I thought one of the vic kids we picked up in last years draft would be part of it.

Whitlock was one of those.

 

[jackag24]

I would hope if this deal eventuates that Whitlock is happy to return home. Don't like the idea of pushing 18 year old kids out the door..

 

[JimmyBC]

Had high hopes for Whitlock

 

[Lefti93]

Damn this feels like a lesser version of Kennedy for Judd lol.

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

Not keen for Whitlock to be part of any trade.

 

[Brian McGee]

If Whitlock is the key that opens the trade door you do it in a heartbeat.

 

[Chewy316]

Two firsts, Whitlock for NWM and a 2nd and a 3rd

All futures

Think a more realistic scenario would be Whitlock, a future 1st and a current 2nd for NWM straight up.

Whitlock was highly, highly rated at Port 12 months ago, and I've seen no reason why he wouldn't still be rated that way by the Club. He certainly wouldn't be any sort of steak knives in the deal that's for sure.

 

[Willsy10]

Whitlock was one of those.

Yeah I think it will be him

 

[longdonkey]

If that's what its going to take I'd sooner lose a wantaway key forward than a small forward who wants to stay.

 

[all seeing eye]

With Max King

Multiple players found. Use birthday to differentiate. eg [PLAYERCARD="23/11/1962"]Joe Smith[/PLAYERCARD]

having knee issues, you would think they have asked for Whitlock as part of trade negotiations.

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

The idea of Whitlock being part of any trade discussion leaves a sour taste in my mouth.

 

[SureBuddy]

For anyone sad about losing Whitlock, just remind yourself we are getting NWM

 

[all seeing eye]

This was always going to be painful even thou many thought we would get him for unders.

 

[SureBuddy]

Also we must know Dougie is coming, followed by Pilot the year after. With MG, Luko and Marshall, losing Whitlock is not a disaster at all. Actually smart list management.

sPot on, they may know already the Cochrane status and with Pilot in train , it has logic. However the loss of Whitlock still hurts but NWM was never coming cheaply.

We’ll have futures Pilot and maybe Cochrane anyway.
Hopefully Luko, Mitch & Todd can get the job done in the meantime.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Our track record with talls is amazing hey

 

[PortAdelFC1997]

I see Pilot being more of a mid-forward rather than a tall forward at this stage and Cochrane is more difficult to pin down due to his versatility.

 

[#Port Patriot#]

Perhaps Whitlock involved also means port are also grabbing Keeler with Nas. He's a forward and ruck that's distant cousin with Nas and close plus from SA. Young too.

 

[Watto71]

If we are losing Whitlock maybe the rumor of us chasing a young Lemmy from Carlton is true

 

[JimmyBC]

If a raw KPF taken at pick 30 something is what moves the needle for St. Kilda you are doing it every day of the week, I really like Whitlock but getting the hairs rising up ya skirt over this is absurd particularly with our track record developing KPFs.

Yep if it’s Whitlock, 25 2nd and 26 first, or Whitlock, 26 and 27 first with a 26 2nd coming back I’m doing it every day

 

[Schulzenfest]

At this stage Whitlock is nothing more than an unproven second round pick raw tall. History suggests he's about a 50% chance to even end up better than Ollie Lord, let alone end up a star. If Whitlock is the key to unlocking an NWM deal I'll pack his bags for him and drive him to the airport.
