which side of the story do you believe? Port has a **** load of cash and is paying for Pitard to reach the floor or none of its true and we're not paying for him?

Yeah, but now we have all 4.
We also made a conscious decision to bring in young 18 year olds, Thomas and Scott. Plus whichever other kids we draft.
Yeah it is quite an interesting age profile when looking at that round 23 team with only 4 players under 23. Ahern , Clarke, Symkin and Turner.
Under 23 is not a barometer of good side.........players in their prime r between 26 and 30, that upper ceiling can be higher if managed right. So the players we r getting this year r turning 26, 28, 28, 26 respectively all in their prime. We have gone long way to address the 'bottom 6' issue, in someways the ones we got this yr are more important than the superstars.

Carn m8. Theo saying “Seven News understands” is as far away from confirmed as possible
The only risk with him being in the squad is if you actually give him a game.
Seven news probably read it in this thread and ran with it.

And yet every Port supporter is happy to run with Kane Cornes' ever expanding salary for Polec?
Kelly trade is only with north........congnilio is already in talk with hawthorn
25 to 30 is prime.........gems that we got. Our club has the ability to get mid level recruits to the next level.
Maybe the gullible ones

The bloke wanted a source, he got it.

oh if the source is 7 news im fine with it not being right.
But anyway neither here nor there. its a salary dump if its only dumping a dollar. or more importantly isnt there for ken to select in the 22!

Haha 7 Adelaide covering Port is not a source should see other things they've covered when it's about Port. Doesn't make sense either, trade Wingard to lose cap space but pay some of Pitards? Makes sense, not.

Mate, you quote Tredrea and Cornes as if they're gospel, then slag off this bloke as if he isn't credible.
I believe him, and I don't care if you don't as you have been proven as inconsistent and therefore not credible.

We have Gaff and Hickey. Could have either, both or none.
You still have the age profile of a team that should be contending. Are you a contender?

I think Pittard also had aspirations to return to Victoria, despite re-signing with Port in 2017.
I say this because he bought a home in inner Melbourne from my cousin in 2016, and it actually surprised me he re-committed to Port last year. I think Polec and Pittard are good acquisitions for the Kangas.

When have I ever believed Cornes? Lol. Doesn't surprise me people only have to hear about your big tantrum on the Gaff thread to know you'd believe your own BS to suit yourself. You are the least credible and believable person on bigfooty if believe something about North it's most likely BS.

North need Port to pay half of Pittard's salary so they can put the rest towards Josh Kelly.

Hahaha, mate I hope for Snakes sake Kelly goes there imagine the sook if he stayed or chose another club. They missed out on Gaff on a $1.3mil a year deal and Goldy is ooc next year on a $800k contract if they couldn't get Kelly from $2.1mil I don't think they have a chance. Or they're overpaying Hall massively.
Can't see North being that competitive next year and will miss the 8 by a bit, Polec isn't enough to get them there. Doubt Kelly, like all players they chase, wants to go there.
Commenting on other people being inconsistent and not credible, yet believing anything 7 Adelaide say about Port.
Boy oh boy. Wowee.

Oh but Ryder and SPP are hardened criminals according to 7 Adelaide
Typical BF mentality on display in this thread.
Port and North supporters arguing over financials in the hope that they can say we screwed you over lol
Why does there have to be a winner, maybe both clubs got exactly what they want? Now that’s a novel idea!
As for Kane Cornes, he just sounds like a bitter and twisted flog who carry’s around Power Pom Poms.
