List Mgmt. Dan Houston requests trade to Victoria - will stay if deal can't be done

[Rash]

Latest news after deal fell over:

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Don’t attack Humphrey B Bear, he was a legend of my childhood

I would play him out of the goalsquare, questions on his endurance.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Just do it

You guys are just bloodthirsty now

 

[all seeing eye]

Malcolm Rosas wants out, much prefer him to Atkins, 23 and Rosas instead, deal done.

 

[gbear]

He was a She

Really?

 

[Zakk Wylde]

Remember that time Jason Cripps lost his mind and Rory Atkins was almost a port player....that was a scary day!

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Really?

Woman inside the suit, yes

 

[Harlott]

Since when has the club leaked a possible decision, read the room on Bigfoody and retracted? Methinks a few people here think we’re a little bit more important than we really are.

 

[240volt]

We'll go back to the drawing board and find a way to make it even worse I assume. Maybe we can find a way to get Ned McHenry thrown in.

It’s the old politics trick, let out an idea and see how it goes down with the natives.
If there’s a backlash water it down a bit and they’ll accept it because it’s not as bad as first thought.

 

[RossFC]

Thank ****

 

[240volt]

Woman inside the suit, yes

Me and Ford are old enough to know these personal things

 

[pastmyprimus]

The thought of Atkins running around in the PBs. Crisis averted

 

[Honeyboy Wilson]

This absolute horse shit that Port hate next year's draft so much that they need to go all in on this year's amazing one... Last year they rated this draft so lowly they preferred risking bringing in a known average commodity in Esava Ratugolea

than staying in it.

We had a good run with our list and recruiting, but it feels like they think they're more clever than everyone now because of a few hits they had.

Yet all the Ken lovers in the media blame the average list?

I'm still miffed. We wanted Perryman to replace Houston, then we send Houston to the team that beat us for Perryman for way unders. When they're meant to be a competitor.

What is going on? Jesus.

Edit: Just saw that we're not doing the deal. HALLELUR!

 

[Harlott]

And the social media. Not just Port supporters either. Outrage matters if it's strong enough.

Hasn’t really worked re Ken.

 

[pastmyprimus]

A neat negotiating tactic. Put forward a deal that's obviously bad for Port so the optics are better when we accept something that's a little better.

 

[davesnothere]

Latest news:
Thankyou Jesus!

There's no Rory

 

[Adz2332]

Swap the future first for a future second and keep 39. Done

I mean they didn’t care about co-captains/sack Hinkley

 

[PAFC66]

It'll probably still happen with some minor changes.

Giving the club way too much credit there by assuming they give a **** about what we think. They don’t.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

The main issue with the whole trade is the future first.

We literally hold all the power here, why are even consider deals like this

 

[bringbackbucky]

I’m happy to let Houston walk for free rather than have Ratkins on our list…

Are we though or is this all just media bs?

Genuine question

 

[sobrave]

A B2B all Australian, who's in his prime, contracted and not a free agent. Plus our first pick next year. For jack watts MK2, pick 13 and a couple of bags of manure.

I'd rather trade Andrew McLeod

[Us against the rest]

The last decade being a Port supporter.

Because they know this is going to be a once every 5 year draft strength

And they are desperate for a piece
