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

[Buget]

Is it just me? But, I am starting to get a bit sick of these St Kilda pricks coming here and posting the same crap comments post after post!

You have said your peace, now ping off and wait 'till Nas makes his decision.

Big Footy etiquette has been completely ignored.

Doesn’t help that the main board trade thread has degraded into uneducated sh!t slinging.

I get it, I'd be a pissed off nervous wreck too if I were them. We might understand their pain next year if Butters hasn't signed.

It takes a special breed to be a Saints supporter.
Imagine the only time you had success was almost 60 years ago.
When they show the old Grand finals on tv yours is so old there’s just a grainy black and white bit of Barry Breen kicking a point, he’s 77 now.
I sorta feel a bit sorry for them.

Obvious that the prospect of having their best player walk away has triggered the supporter base, as we would be triggered if Zak moves next year.

The bidding for NWM is essentially a blind auction being run by Ben Williams. All Clubs are in the dark.

However, there is a belief going round that Adelaide have front loaded their proposed deal in a major way. Without giving the exact figure I was told the belief was well over 2M/year in 26 and 27.

Bruh, how did Kymbo and Rucci come to the conclusion Bergman is still an option despite re-signing and Butters wants out this year? Huh?

We aren't far off.

And us?

Too bad the Crows will need to depart Curtin, Soligo, Rachele, 2025 1st rounder, 2026 and 2027 1st rounders for NWM and 2026 and 2027 4th rounders.

And us?

I've only been given the years and the total amount. It's more than competitive.

So are we in front for his signature?

Blind auction. Nobody knows.

 

[Addy23]

And us?

My belief is our offer averages 1.5-1.6m but front loaded at 2m for 2 years. Adelaide front-ended it by slightly more but average still around the same.

 

[Powerade 08]

The silence from Tony and Doctor Feel speaks volumes.

 

[Willsy10]

I think it’s fair to say once his manager has squeezed every bit of juice he can out of this Nas is going to have 3 massive offers on the table and will be a rich man either way, so surely the final decision won’t be about money?

 

[PowerBaz]

Blind auction. Nobody knows.

NWM would….. I mean does he want to go to Port over the mob down the rd?

 

[QPower]

Blind auction. Nobody knows.

Nice analogy though it assumes highest bid wins and that doesn’t seem clear.

 

[Lefti93]

Oh god, all confidence is now gone.

 

[all seeing eye]

So if the crows offer is one dollar more he goes to them. So much for the narrative of family and mates.

 

[Schulzenfest]

I actually didn’t realise NWM was averaging that much in fantasy. We might actually need to up our offer

Hopefully Butters picks Essendon so we can trade him for Will Setterfield

That is not what has been said at all - more so NWM manager is keeping all offers secret and isn't using them to drive bids up by saying XXX Team has offered this much.

For someone called the all seeing eye, you sure miss a lot.

 

[bomberclifford]

Bitcho putting the mockers on the deal. Great.

Surely by now we've all come to grips with the possibility that Butters could leave next year (or this year)? It's not like it would be a total shock to the system.

Fortunately If Zak moves next year it's a much simpler trade.. we get a compensation pick and move on..

We would still force a trade for multiple first next year as a RFA over a single pick as compo.
