News Karl Amon signs a three year deal to stay at Port

[RossFC]

I know he's been in great form this year but it still annoys me that we put games into players that won't be here in the future.

That goes for him and several other players. Some of which, (not including Amon obviously) are not even good enough.

 

[Marmozet]

Disappointed to lose him because he came good this year and proved a lot of doubters wrong.

 

[RossFC]

Please advise on how this has happened smithy7 , told the club he wanted to stay!!!

He's contracted for at least another week. He's not going anywhere.

 

[powermacs]

What’s he worth? If Francis still wanted to come home I’d be asking the question. We don’t need another second round pick in an average draft.

 

[TheFVK]

The last player we can afford to lose.

 

[4THAWN]

I wonder if we are going to try get him again. Would've had a lower market value last off-season that's for sure.

Would love him at the hawks. I reckon he's worth at least a mid/high second rounder or more.

 

[snozulu]

No surprise we tried to trade him out last year and there were no takers.

At least now he has a bit of trade value although i would prefer him to stay.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

How can you lose a player like Amon while barely paying the salary cap floor. This ******* club.

Kochie: “Good clubs don’t sack coaches midseason” - yes they do dickhead and this is exactly why.

Perhaps it should have been "good clubs don't lose players that they want to keep mid season".

What's going on down there FFS one thing after another

 

[RossFC]

I just hope he doesn't nominate a club. Then maybe despite being uncontracted we could get a 2nd rounder out of the highest bidder.

 

[LFC2010]

He's gone, just like A Keath is as well.

Resigning Karl Amon

Players need hope as much as the members do.

Imagine the thought of fronting up for another preseason and another game plan knowing you’ll finish 9th-12th.

Hang on to him for years while he’s utter crap, gets good and pisses off. This has been a shithouse week.

 

[OneGreatClub]

Never mind folks, at least we still have an abundance of slow inside mids.
I’ll bet Amon got a nice offer from someone, so now he can cite family reasons. Very convenient.
We had better get something decent for him.
He can * off if he wants to leave for all I care.
Another one in the despise basket.
Played him all year too when others could have been developed.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

God just absolutely positively * off with this ******* season for *s sake this ******* club

 

[AwwThatsApples]

I fear that our failed season this year will result in Amon leaving. Were we to make the finals he would've felt good at home provided he was played enough (Which he has been) but he won't want to stay at Port if things are as bad as they look.

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

Like who? We have a distinct lack of wingers with speed and good foot skills. Drew and Atley are inside mids.

Mayes? Johnson? Pudney?

 

[OneGreatClub]

God just absolutely positively fu** off with this ******* season for fu**s sake this ******* club

But how do you really feel about it?

 

[LP7_]

Hinkley said a month ago on SEN that Karl has bought a house in Adelaide and is very confident he’ll stay... quite a backflip.

 

[RossFC]

Mayes? Johnson? Pudney?

Pudney maybe, I'd get rid of the other 2.

St Kilda has probably offered him 5yrs/$700,000pa and shares in whatever JELD WEN is.

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

Mayes? Johnson? Pudney?

Wasn't Pudney injured? His kicking skills were pretty ordinary at the start of the year.
The other two are delist material. Mayes is 25, how much development is really left there? Johnson came back looking like he had eaten Karl Amon.
