Player Watch Welcome to Port Adelaide Jack Lukosius

[PA88]

Just come out of work and haven't found any report that says Luko has nominated Port, just that he's nominated to come back to SA.

Edit above: OK ... just heard Rozee talking and confirming it.

cRowie was confident the other day Luko was leaning towards choosing the crows lol

call me ignorant but how exactly are we going to get Lukosius isn't he still contracted for another 2 years we don't even have a draft hand since we threw it all away. The only way i see this working is if Houston leaves in some 3 way trade.

It sounds like the Gold Coast have to get rid of him with their salary cap situation and their play for Dustin Martin. My guess is whatever we get for Houston and Soldo will land us Lukosius somehow

 

[agmsy]

how did this go from nominating us to 6 year deal in 5 hours, isn't there a giant middle bit involving what picks it takes to get him that we missed

All of this gets worked out in the background.

Lukosius (through his management) will know what terms are available from each club he is considering moving to, and his management will have a good sense both of what each club is willing/able to give up and what it will take to satisfy GC.

By the time Lukosius publicly nominates a club as his preferred destination, he's been sold on the contract being offered + the other perceived benefits of moving to that club, and he should have a good understanding (through his management) of how likely a deal is to get done.

Whether the deal is for something we already possess, something we expect to acquire through other deals, or something that's still a work in progress is something we'll find out soon enough.

So from a so called dream draft, if this happens we’ll end up 2 Lukosius 5 Rozee + Butters who’s playing like he went top 5 and throw in JHF. There’s something deeply wrong if there’s no dynasty.

This deserves a thread on its own.

 

[gbear]

How does he go sitting under high balls inside 50 with 4 defenders hanging off him though?

Hence the need to get rid of the currently outdated game plan.

 

[gbear]

Well this confirms that Charlie has played his last game.

Thank **** for that! It should have been a few years back.

 

[gbear]

Luko being good for us is entirely dependent on Hinkley and Chad Cornes. Scary thought.

Hopefully, both will no longer be employees of the club very soon. Also, Hartlett can also be added to that list as well.

Joshy Carry told him old man Hinks was getting the boot obviously

Other teams have good players too you know.

 

[gbear]

Hilarious that Crows fans don’t rate him all of a sudden.

Reminds me of that famous Alyx comparison when Stevie Motlop chose us.

Lol. New facility and an actual club not a franchise located in what is essentially a car park. Add the fact the senior coach is a wish version of Hinkley. You are only going the franchise if you are being overpaid or Port don't want you.

 

[Zakk Wylde]

LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUKOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

The Crows also have 3 players from that 2018 draft.

Last year Ken tried to open up the game plan, and we lost the first 5 games. Then he went back to the very defensive game plan. This year after a slump, he had to go more mobile, and that helped by getting Esava out of the backline.

Perhaps Ken is smarter than we think, and our current list just isn’t fast and mobile enough to play an open aggressive game plan.

I think Jack could help change this, especially the forwardline. Still need some more speed at half forward and on the wings though.

Will be interesting if anything changes…

No

No future first round pick please. Pick in the 20s for Luko since we are going to take all his salary and they need his salary off the books.

Nah, I watched the Brownlow last night (well, I looked at the votes after it was finished). Cripps and Daicos are the only good players - nobody else got any votes!

 

[JUSTWORK]

GC clearly are pushing him out. This should be a Jack Bowes

“Starting point”

 

[Doctor Feel]

Lol second rounder at most for luko surely

 

[Contested Marx]

Lol at someone I work with who's a crows fan. Luko came up in conversation a month ago where I said he'd be a good fit at a post-Dixon port

"Nah he's going to crows. Same fit there, would work with Fogarty and Thilthorope, plus he wants to play with Rankine again"

today it was "nah Jack Watts mark 2. He wouldn't fit in there anyway"

 

[JimmyBC]

No.

A 24 year old they took as a pick 2, on big coin who we've offered a 6 year deal and they are gonna take a second rounder eh lol put down the crack pipe.

At the Ramsgate?
