I don't know enough inside knowledge of what anybody's opening price is. First I've heard of Wingard being pushed out, strange, you wouldn't happen to somehow know his family somehow?
If you can’t read I can’t help you. There’s literally post after post saying it’s the club pushing it and it’s a real possibility.
Ahaha so you've been on the Port board? Great, some real BS there. Did you see the part where some are blaming Chad Cornes somehow for this?
Ha yes I did read that as well.
Good, then you'd know not to believe everything you read. Far too many try and act like they're in the know or get too caught up in stupid theories that sound ridiculous.
Nope, that type of deflection isn't going to work because I'm not the one who made the stupid, baseless claims without evidence. No need to backpedal and hide behind your opinion either, you said:
Ok you have no idea of the theories I'm on about. Wingard isn't upset at Port it's the media by saying he's looking to leave for money, Port aren't saying go find yourself a new home. It's more we don't want him walking out next year as a RFA when we can get more for him this year. You may of heard how important this draft is to Port so if Wings is gonna leave the club wants it to be this year.
You're entitled to your opinion, but Port are entitled to demand what they want, and they're entitled to keep him if they choose.
We’re all basing our views on here on something. Mine is based on some industry knowledge (journalist) that lines up with respected posters on your board and our board. Things change very quickly but as it stands, for some reason, Port want to make a deal for Wingard this trade period. I actually think he’ll stay but not because you want him to.
Nope, that type of deflection isn't going to work because I'm not the one who made the stupid, baseless claims without evidence. No need to backpedal and hide behind your opinion either, you said:
"It is clear Port have told him to explore his options, how could you say otherwise?"
"It is also clear through his social media that Wingard originally stated he had no plans to leave Port. Yet, now he is meeting with Vic clubs."
and upon being called on to back up those statements, you had a whinge. You got nothing.
I see what you mean, I guess we've just got two completely different takes on it. Chads yet to come out and say what's going on instead he's just being cryptic. So either of us could be right. I guess we'll know more next week, hope it doesn't change his value.
What’s a more ridiculous theory? The club is shopping him or this is a mutual exercise by both parties to establish his worth by letting him go and tour/speak to other clubs just so Port can decide what they might want to offer him?
Even if this is true we did it with Hartlett and Lobbe a few years back and they stayed on good terms (until Lobbe was traded) Chad said he wants to stay so I doubt it's as bad as you're making this out to be.
Both sound about equal.
Ok what did you want me to say? Port hates Chad and want him gone badly. Is that better?
Of course they are. They can also only get what someone is willing to pay them if they’re determined to trade him this year. At this point in time he ain’t worth 2 first rounders, Port themselves recognise this by the fact they won’t pay him what he wants. I’m not saying they’re wrong but you can’t ask for 2 first rounders if you’re not even willing to contemplate renewing him at say $750k.
Its not because of that, they dont want band 1 in next year's draft, would rather a early pick in this draft
Really? Williams is what you got from polac but younger and will be better, getting him pluss an early pick would be cream for you guys.
I wouldn't trade Bailey Williams for Chad Wingard
