North would be crazy to trade a possible next year pick 1,2 or 3 for Houston.
North no doubt will turn every stone to get him if the nomination comes their way but I can't see them contending while houston is around to make any sense of it, for their own sake you would hope they miss out for another year or 2 on these big names.Thatās whatās been mentioned in dispatches.
There comes a time when a club thatās been collecting draft picks at the bottom of the ladder has to make their move to improve.
Maybe North believes that time has come for them ā¦
Very rare for a player not to nominate a preferred club, still expect that he will do so.Houston wonāt nominate a club that canāt satisfy Port.
The only way we can satisfy Port is to overpay.
Would/should we be happy with that ā¦ I doubt Austin will ā¦

This type of situation happens every year most deals eventually get done, let's see what plays out.
Most deals get done with some form of compromise both sides.
Totally agree about that feeling, but I will choose "worse" sadly.Have a feeling that Voss thinks that Houston, will be an amazing get for us. Knows him personally and has most likely been
conversing with him recently. Telling him that I will convince Austin, that you are worth it. Being a very close mate of JSOS
as well, be a bit surprised if he does not land with us. For better, or worse?
Yep. I agree.Totally agree about that feeling, but I will choose "worse" sadly.
That pick/those picks, can be used more prudently on, say, Leek Aleer if he became available, or another punt in this draft.
sameI want GCSā picks. Not at all interested in Houston at this point.
If we could get picks 12 and 20 from them for our pick 31, F1 and something else, Iām doing that deal.
kpd we need and speedIām not convinced that Houston is even what we need, certainly not at a high cost.

I'm betting he's holding off on nominations until he knows where he sits with us. I suspect he does want to come here but he needs to give Austin some time to see what he can do, otherwise he'd be mad not to take a 'godfather offer' elsewhere.If Houston nominates Carlton without the knowledge that we are prepared to meet Ports demands in trade, he better be prepared to be disappointed as was Papley and Gibbs the first time of asking.
Managers are very loath to take that route these days ā¦
