Past #6: Jason Horne-Francis [Part II] - NM trade JHF & #1 for Sheezel, Wardlaw, CHarvey & PA 2023 1st - you were never one of us

So hang on... port want Willie rioli and Jason Horne Francis but don't want to lose any good players?

They have pick 8.

Haha tell west coast we will trade JHF to them for pick 2 and Willie rioli. That seems fairer

Two clubs next year and....




If he wound up back at Arden st he’d have to:

Put media out through the club basically apologising explaining his attempted runaway

Front the players and doing basically the same thing.

Tick every box in terms of preparation and professionalism

Start in the VFL and earn his way back.

Further to this the absolute arrogance of Port expecting every club to just accept what they are offering and do it.

Further to that, promise both clubs we will take rioli pick 1 of PSD. Put them both on notice to pull their fingers out and get a deal.
 

"The Rat" may still be a NMFC player next year. And if he sorts himself out, he might be for longer. Probably unlikely, but let's see what plays out. If NMFC plays this smart, JHF might be the best thing that happened to us.

I know I said he might be "the most hated NMFC player ever by NMFC people." But emotions have cooled, and whilst I think what JHF has attempted here is piss poor, let's just see how this plays out...
 
I liked Kingy's take on Trading Day, if the deal isn't good enough, hold him till next year, his value won't go down, and there will be more suitors.
this makes no sense

he's out of contract, so in fact he will have less value, and there wont necessarily be more suitors because he can nominate where he wants to go and there's the PSD threat

Your future first.

Which means that you need to get Rioli and pick 2 for pick 8?

The long and short of it is Port made this mess and now need to pay more than they thought to get out of it.

Yeah there's no way that would ever happen. That's an Adrian Dodoro type demand which no one would take seriously.
If the deal gets done it will be along the lines of North receiving pick 2 with a sweetener of say pick 33 and 53 - which points wise is more than pick 1. No SA club is giving a top 3 pick and an additional 1st rounder for the kid though, not this year, not next year either.

Glad someone here shares my point of view :thumbsu:
 
I'm sure JHF will be fully committed next year if the deal doesn't get done 👍
Maybe, if port don’t bend over backwards to pick him up with his kickinv and screaming and you lot leave him in the lurch where by he has to go back to Arden st with his tail between his legs, then he mat give your shit truck mob the bird next year and choose the crows. So it really is important for Snort to cough up and get the kid now.

Tell ya what, I am almost content with sending this kid to the PSd or National Draft next year in return for absolutely NOTHING. I would buy an extra membership to the club if they had the balls to **** you and this kid.

Pay up or **** off

Maybe exactly what his character needs in order to grow up. The hubris of this guy needs a massive check.

The only way I reckon their current impasse is navigated is for them to give up a quality player.

Because it’s pretty clear currently the do not have the draft capital to get the deal done.
Yep hard to see how it gets done without them giving up a player or players with some real value. Doesn't necessarily have to be to us or WC, I'm sure the other 15 list managers have looked over PA list and thought about who they could shake loose.

Ball is PA's court though, they made the play, it their reputation that will take the hit if they aren't prepared to follow through and get it done when it gets a bit uncomfortable.
 
If he somehow stays at the club next year he'll have to do a *ton of work and earn his respect back, which will probably make him crack the sads even harder and I can guarantee you he will take a mental health leave of absence because Clarkson won't have a bar of it.

This will happen regardless of what club he plays for.

Points mean nothing when you talking picks 33 and 53. Luminaries like Brock Smith, Aaron Nietzske, Louis Butler, Shannon Neale and Cody Brand have been taken at those two picks. We don't have F/S or academy players to bid on. We need good players not rolling the dice on 99% likelihood list-cloggers.

What everyone seems to forget is these "quality players" don't want to leave. The player has to agree to a trade.
