I figured him for a Ram guy personally but I guess those things are hard to park around the Albert Park cafes

He'd need a booster seat to see over the steering wheel

St Kilda supporters - you were right into chasing him to your shit club.

Does anyone else get Ryan Griffin vibes with Zac Merrett?
I think he is a wonderful player but he has three years of a contract left.
He has not really been able to help us achieve team success in his time here and has had some prickly times at the club.
I know I am in the minority but I believe he should be held to his contract and if he isn’t 100% happy with that then goodbye Zac.
I still believe his camp are leaking stories to the press.

i'd believe it, but we all fell off as the season progressed.

we had some close games i guess,
it'd be the first piece of silverware the club has won in 24 years,
just one year after Netscape retired and turned into Mozilla.

Best thing that ever happened. Netscape navigator was horrid

 

[Dons4days]

The fact that he didn't at least get the two votes in the last game against Brisbane is laughable

 

[Runk]

My favourite bit was when he said he had to take into consideration his new child when thinking about the St Kilda offer....as he hopped into his $400k Lamborghini Urus.......

Do we know that he actually owns it, or is it a loan? Not bad product placement if that’s what it was…

In any case life changing money is life changing money, and small business ventures aside, I don’t know that Zach has many other skills outside of footy and cricket. Has anyone ever heard of him studying or doing part time work? Perhaps his path is coaching or some sort of strategist role post-football

I am assuming a little its the Dutton automotive sponsorship related. So probably on loan.



I did see Tom Morris indicate the money the Saints were offering on twitter was somewhere in the range of 1,5m I think. If that is even close to being accurate I think he would be foolish to not at least talk it over with those close to him over dismiss it completely.

I suspect he is leasing it on a pretty good deal.

Imagine if your partner got offered millions of dollars to change jobs and said no without talking to you about it first

 

[Nuggs Bunny]

I just care that he should pay fringe benefits tax for the Lambo

 

[Mercurial89]

Is there any actual doubt it's a loaned vehicle?
It's Dutton, He's the captain of the club you are sponsoring, they would have had him in it the day they signed the contract.

it almost happened, they almost made a big boy pants decision to plan for the future, but no. defies logic how many bad decisions they actively make, like what's the plan to get picks and rebuild? na just keep decent players like merrett to push for 8th place every year. unless we see breakout years from everybody it's not happening. absolute clownshow.

Don't be so hard on yourself, on second thoughts your right - you are an absolute clownshow.
