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

[davesnothere]

They boo everyone.

Yeah I’d be pretty disappointed if I were playing the West Coast and they didn’t hate me.

 

[240volt]

They boo everyone.

I’ve endured 20 years of both West Coast and Crows fans and have no doubt West Coast fans are worse.

You mean apart from him suggesting he was worth more than Chris Judd who was a Club captain, Premiership captain, Brownlow medalist, Norm Smith medalist, Leigh Matthew’s trophy winner, 2 x All Australian, 2 x club champion, AFLPA best first year player and 3 x Ross Glendinning medalist when he was traded?

I think he had a point with regards to it not being a valid comparison due to how long ago that was.

[JimmyBC]

You have to boo loud in Perth it's that isolated & a billion miles from anywhere it's an outlet for being heard.

 

[QPower]

I think he had a point with regards to it not being a valid comparison due to how long ago that was.

There is an assumption underlying that point that suggest inflation in the market re the draft capital required to affect trades that is unsupported by evidence which is why he didn’t even try to make the argument.

Kind of wish we had got to play the Saints in these final rounds.

Remember back then when Port and Gold Coast started some fisty cuffs and Dixon as a Sun noped in the corner with a conflicted look

 

[PowerBaz]

Can't help but think Bergman or Butters are on the table here. What's the chances Bergman deal was done to make it more valuable to break?

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Surely if this is true it means that they are keeping NWM? (its probably not).

 

[Brian McGee]

I would happily take Wilkie off of them too.

Bergman no chance. Butters would require a godfather offer

I was about to click it but then I saw it was from Rucci

 

[Scholz Supremacy]

Surely if this is true it means that they are keeping NWM? (its probably not).

Rucci’s just being a paid mouthpiece for the club again.

 

[Buget]

Surely if this is true it means that they are keeping NWM? (its probably not).

I know the last round of collective bargaining resulted in a significant increase in the salary cap, but I was of the understanding most contracts had an automatic percentage increase tide to salary cap increase.

It amazes me that if this is true the list management hasn’t systematically review and renegotiated everyone’s contract. They are some prime movers they are potentially loosing.

Hence why I think that it is complete rubbish.

Yeah looked suss as

Doesnt NWM live with Windhager? Weird way to keep the team happy.

 

[Sewer de Lance]

If we end up landing Nas, it will be our greatest recruitment coup since luring Gavin Wanganeen back in 1996, and yes, that includes JHF.

Neither are on the table. Stop listening to Vic media morons and idiots on Bigfoofy talking garbage. They'll keep saying Butters is the only way to pressure Port in moving him on when he isn't needed in the trade. They want Port to lose Butters and I can assure you, it's NOT Butters wanting to leave or Port wanting to move Butters on for this trade. Port have ample room to pay Butters and Nasaih regardless of the numpties here on BF and other places stating otherwise

can't see Wilkie leaving tbh. He'd only come due to ties with Carr but I highly HIGHLY doubt it.

Wanganeen was always coming home to Port once they were in the AFL.

 

[Bump Bailey]

Wanganeen was always coming home to Port once they were in the AFL.

Far from it.

The guy has openly and publicly stated he absolutely agonised over the decision to leave Essendon, and admitted he would have regretted leaving them if it wasn’t for the ‘04 flag after missing out on the Bombers 2000 premiership.

It was absolutely an enormous coup.

 

[SainterinSydney]

Surely if this is true it means that they are keeping NWM? (its probably not).

Wilkie is under contract until 2027. In our top 3 players at the club. Absolute madness he leaves.

We have a bottomless pit of money to satisfy Nas if needed. We don't need to shed players to keep him. The problem has never been money with Nas, as you campaigners are well aware of.

Funny how you think this only works for your players, but not for ours.

 

[backtozero]

They're going to blow up their list and be Norf and WC levels of bad.
