Speculation Dan Houston [UFA 2027]

[GoRoos2023]

Why would Houston be interested in going to North?

He wouldn’t

 

[GoRoos2023]

Port Power won't be knocking it back despite them "saying" they want this year's pick, it would be Houston. He clearly want to play for a club in premiership contention which is why he knock back the Saints and picked Melbourne when they looked good before shit hit the fan and now Carlton.

Yep agree, our name had been brought up a few times that’s why it’s subject matter.

Almost impossible to recruit quality when you’re at the bottom regardless of what we pay.

And why would North want him given his age profile?

We just have to start winning games, our age profile is our biggest issue.

Players over 27 are Aidan Corr, Luke McDonald, Darcy Tucker. That’s it, that’s our senior group.

Bringing in Houston at 28 would make the world of difference to our group over the next 4 years.

We just keep losing and it ruins the players belief and development.

At this point we just gotta start winning, more draft picks won’t fix the problem.

100%.

Send us pick 2, you'd only make a mess out of it. You can't be trusted with anymore draft picks.

Future 1st as well.

In all seriousness if Port knocked back a future first from us for Houston they are insane.
Probably a 50% chance to be pick 1 next year

There's no way this happened. Norths future 1st is start the car territory. Guaranteed to 5 pick and most likely number 2 at worst. And even if houston didn't want to move, I'm sure port paying a bit extra $$ could sway him. But again, no way this happened. Like the gibbs trade, trading in old players for this amount of draft capital is very risky. I don't think it's ever paid off.

Houston wont agree to go to north.

 

[ABAB]

Houston wont agree to go to north.

What happen if Port Power don't increase his salary to what he want as reported by Kane Cornes and then see them bring in Perryman on 7 years at $850K??? He might be forced to.

If I was North and Houston needs to be dragged kicking and screaming to come over because he has no other decent options im not sure id be all that keen to want him
