We need to get into his ear... but I wouldn't want us "guaranteeing" him a game... that's a recipe for disaster. He needs to know he's competing for a spot with Young and whoever else we recruit as a KPD.

I don’t think for Aleer it would all be about money. He’s not getting a game any time soon if Taylor, Buckley, Idun, Himmelberg stay fit. He and his manager would know that. If he came to us he’d be in a contending team, good facilities, and a walk up start to partner Weitering. He’s a nice height (194cm). He’s athletic with a big leap. Deceptively strong too. He’s exactly the right guy to team up with Weiters I reckon. We don’t need a gorilla. We need a mobile and strong tall that complements Weiters and there aren’t many of them. He’s the perfect fit. Weitering would become an AA lock if he could have the freedom to intercept more.
Of 72 possible games , Martin, Cuners, Marchbank played a total of 11
At least the new HP guy should get a better run

Apologies, thought the poster was talking about Idun. Clearly I don't think Aleer is the best lock down small defender in the comp lol

Oh nah I said ‘and Idun’ in the sense that he’s another that Aleer isn’t getting a game in front of, not that we should chase him.
That's not what you'd call a great sales pitch.....

Depends on the type of player he is...
What if he's a competitor that likes to be challenged? By some reports he wants to see out his contract at the Giants so that suggests that maybe he is that type of player who wants to earn their spot...
Otherwise you end up with another Zac Fisher...

Then you don't pursue him.
There'd be plenty of clubs asking the question who would guarantee a regular game. If he's fighting for a spot in the side, he's better off just staying where he is, or choosing a club where he'd get a regular gig.

Of course you pursue him!
He's not an idiot... he'd know his chances of getting a game ahead of Young and Sam Durdin are far greater than who he has to compete against at the Giants...
It's common sense. But you don't want to sell it to him that way... he will get complacent! Sell the new start at a big Vic club, flag opportunity, massive crowds at the MCG (as opposed to a bloody dugout with a travelling school bus of fans interstate), huge fan base, facilities, post career opportunities etc.

Harry had a terrific year. Will be top 5 in our B&F.
Don't you think Alir would have a better effect on our performance than Houston? + younger+ less salary+ less trade value.
NB- I don't believe trading first rounders for Half Back Flankers(Houston)

Cut out the deadwood but not fully, trade out no one of value, replace with needs based acquisitions in both the draft and in trading (restricted by availability), let the borderline types who remain on the list stagnate because they have been replaced rather than added to, rinse and repeat.
It's no wonder we constantly hit a brick wall. Where's the next wave, where's inspiration?

That 6 year contract he signed only a few weeks ago would make it very hard

So Houston not on the list, no where near 950K
Geez I hope your info is correct. For mine the best KPD prospect in the draft, bar none. If you look back I have mentioned him a few times. December birthday, so massive upside, was in the AA team after the carnival.
Hasn’t had much hype, but reckon the “pros” have him on their radar. Sam Taylor ring a bell? No problem with O’Farrell, but this kid is good.
Houston signed his contract in 2022 before the dual AA’s and the new tv deal. Likely on 600k per year which was above the average at the time.
Probably a large reason why he’s looking to move and re-negotiate his contract. Bit stiff for himself the timing of when he signed but worked out great for Port.
Fair that he might be looking for an increase
