Player Watch Jason Horne-Francis - You were always one of us

[Buget]

I hope another record falls - Port's highest score of 29:14 (188).

But 38 frees to 15…

 

[Buget]

Huh?? I haven’t degraded him apart from a very obvious joke. I specifically said I’m not angry, he’s a dumb bogan kid who is homesick, life goes on. I just pointed out some of the comments about our club in here are no different to what you guys are criticising north supporters for making.

Haven’t degraded him, hey?

 

[Ischenko]

Haven’t degraded him, hey?

Yeah. I dunno why it’s so important, but feel free to go through my posting history.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Disagree he’ll go back if we don’t get what we want

Objection! We got what we wanted.

 

[Incarnate]

Those sure are some s**t memes

I thought you ****ed off you whiny bitch?

 

[longdonkey]

Strange really,you would think they be used to losing by now.

I have no love for North but things aren't as bad as what it seems for them. They got a fair deal and will come out of it with a few good players rather than that they mis-managed. The VFL media made a rod for their own back spruiking 2 firsts and a player and they fell for it.

Its karma for getting way ahead of themselves one day at Marvel Stadium when Sideshow Bob kicked a zillion goals in a game that meant nothing other than Hinkley should be sacked.

This was the original 6 club mega deal



This was the final 4 club mega deal

Once you’re Port you’re Port for life.

Welcome home Jason.


I seriously can’t believe how the North board are handling this though, some really disgusting posts over there. I’d be filthy if I saw things like that on our board from our posters.

Among other things, they're calling him Judas. Fact is, he only went there because they drafted him, and he had every right to come home to where his heart is.

 

[longdonkey]

I wouldn’t engage with this bully. Just saw his posts about JHF on the north board.

I'll engage with them and if they need to told to *uck off I will certainly not hold back.

One thing I really like about our board is we are not piss weak but if someone needs to be told, they get told.

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Honestly who would have actually believed it 2 weeks ago if we said we would actually have JHF before the end of the trade period.

We all wanted it to happen but I don’t think anyone genuinely thought it could happen before a week ago.

 

[ctpower]

For what its worth I think your team has done the right thing. They must have either not wanted to draft Cadman or were prepared to miss out to be able to get the next best 2 players.

I assume one will be Wardlaw and Sheezel probably the other, so its not the end of the world.

They’re getting two very good players

Lol at Zurhaar trying to cash in on the norf supporter's rage.

Amazing!!!

Got exactly what we wanted and didn't have to give up an A grade player like everyone kept telling us we had to.

This is also an extraordinary deal all round, to be able to pull this off with that many moving parts in it is a great effort. Gotta give credit where it is due for the club here.

Going to tune in to trading day tonight on replay to enjoy the tears of Kingy, would tune into 5AA to hear from Rowie but he isn't even worth it.

A lot were desperate for these deals to fall over for us so this trade feels extra sweet.

has anyone ventured on to the North or West Coast boards to see how they're tracking? Not bad deals for them in the end though but their fans were expecting to profit out of a loss but that was never going to happen.

We kept getting told we were the ones being unreasonable but the deals have pretty much gone through in the end for around what most of us expected right from the start, the end result has proven how ridiculous Norf, West Coast and the Crows fans that were riding this with such bizarre interest were being.

West coast can’t work out how we got this done and still kept 33.
Norf well they have totally lost the plot.
Some chance none of there 6 members will renew next year.
All in all a very good day for us.

Now to ensure that Jason has a great mentor and plenty of support around him after all he has had to endure from the Victorian media and north supporters over the past few months. Then he just needs to let his footy do the talking.

It says more about the type of human being he is. I would be embarrassed if one of our players behaved liked that publicly when a player left the club.

He's probably just upset that he signed that extension before the Clarko allegations were revealed

 

[longdonkey]

No it had nothing to do with wishful thinking.

Stuff gets out from the club, but people are asked to keep details in confidence.

This is why several posters said the deal would get done and wouldn't reveal their sources. They would be stupid to do so, and they would probably never be given info like this again.

The fundamental basis of the deal was always 8 +F1. That came out pretty much the next day after JHF said he wanted to come to Port. Port and North had already started negotiating.

In the end we basically got JHF for 8 + F1 + 43

The F2 and F3 pick swaps are minor changes.

53 and 57 was the premium for getting Rioli and getting WCE to move on pick 2.

Protect the sources - you know I would never give 100% disclosure to BF so if people give something remember they don't have to.

There are a few people in here that are insiders running burner accounts I reckon. I'm trying to work out who's who.

It's funny I reckon I used to work with Janus might be wrong.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

The Adelaide deal last year for JHF was to give North, Adelaide's 2021 pick 4 + F1 + Melbourne's F1 but North have to give back their F2 + pick 1.

After this year's season and before compo picks that was 2021 #4 + 2022 #5 + 2022 #14 Melb out For 2021 #1 (JHF) + 2022 #19 (NM)

We are getting him for 8 + F1 (lets say 8) + 43

And if next year the ladder stays the same, then we give up our F2 #26 for Collingwood's #34 and our F3 #44 for Freo's #49.

That's how much JHF has been devalued this year.

Clarko might fit in well with there “culture”

You’d think that North were good at football given this blokes carry on.

2 wooden spoons in a row, 6 wins in 2 years, no coach. Looking good at Arden.

Maybe use #simcard as your next promo code

 

[Lightning_Rod]

Those cretins over on the north board keep harping on about red flags, I call bullshit, they are all false flags to get to the club he always wanted to be at, the kid will be a different beast next season.

 

[Lightning_Rod]

Who the fk does he think he is… stick his infraction up his fking arse.

More flawed less genius let’s be honest.

We got a lot to thank GWS for because they have taken a lot of the heat for us.

 

[Lightning_Rod]

Judas Burgoyne leaving thread getting a bump would make for interesting reading.

We were never that vindictive

 

[philreich]

You’re telling me this lost act weird?

Don’t believe you.

Yes indeed. But Brisbane should have come to the Party because they could have only had to match Ashcroft at pick 4. North fans will now be going at their recruiting team to **** over anyone and everyone and will pressure them to bid for Ashcroft at pick 2. I can't see GWS doing a crows and not using their #1 pick on the player they want so he gets all the glory and the $10k bonus.
