Confirmed Will Phillips - re-signed to 2025

[sexyhunk]

2021 norm smith medalist,trac and bont get a good run on our board,for all the annoying reasons

so christian petracca has interest in going to play for north melbourne?!?!?

what did i miss?

 

[Sphynx]

North fans would hate to see a early pick, go well at another club.

You mean like our only ever #1 draft pick?

i never saw anything about north specifically,it maybe here somewhere,i think its all started from leaving him on ground when badly injured,so bit of negative toward dees,but this first im seeing north singled out,maybe just a potential,player of his stature would be desirable to most,its just talk about whos got what that can get it done

Silly season rumour.
Very unlikely to be true
I wouldn't put much thought into it.
I know I'm not.

 

[The acurate one]

Any club showing interest in Wil, still hasn't signed with North.
And we have been signing a few of the boys lately, not sure what to make of that.

 

[Nutjob]

Are we now allowed to acknowledge drafting Phillps over MacDonald was a clear error? I couldn't believe it at the time, still can't believe an AFL recruiter blundered that.

I feel for North. Been there with Dow and SPS. You need your elite picks to be bankable, nor delisted or traded for peanuts in 4 years.

You can’t pick them all, especially in peak covid. We have had far less busts in the first round than Carlton. Dow and SPS is just the start of a long list.

I reckon within a year you'd be able to pick 20 footballers that are better, not that it should be any sort of consideration when discussing a players spot on the list.
And McDonald aint all that either.

It's now fact that Xerrri would have been a better choice than 8 of the first 15 taken in the 2017 draft. What does that mean, nothin.

But I do feel the level of defenders of Wil have pick 3 in mind. Win some, lose some, just wanna be ahead of the curve at days end. I now feel we are fwiw.

 

[Junk yard]

Alright packaged with tarryn you can have willip for a steal, the bidding starts at pick 69. Have at it...

No idea if this guys legit or not

 

[MisterMarcus]

16 touches, 4 marks, 8 tackles, 88% disposal efficiency last week.

Not outstanding numbers for a mid....but he's hardly spudding it up out there and doing nothing. Harsh to be dropped IMHO.

Seems his cards have been marked.

Oh I hope he gets another crack elsewhere. I’ve no issue with Wil.

 

[tiger_tough]

I'm just not sure he's any good. As I said on our board he's barley and upgrade on Thomson Dow, and he's horrific.

Well I’ve had plenty to say on our board . And tbh I’d suggest you’re correct. But he could be a late bloomer.

Would have not much value trade wise, unless you guys want to reimburse North for CCJ. We would appreciate that

 

[tigs2010]

He's a better kick and stronger than Noodles Dow.

 

[jimmytigs]

that 2020 draft class is so underwhelming,swans getting away with getting gulden at 32 and holmes at 20 and jamarra the real standouts,cats look genius with holmes and forcing the gulden bid,then picks 2 4 7 12 13 look to be heading in right direction now,jury out on a few others,of which phillips isnt even at that level

saints first pick at 26 is about to be delisted without playing a game

the covid draft,a disaster

 

[tiger_tough]

He's a better kick and stronger than Noodles Dow.

Yeah, I did say barely. But not many players aren't better than Dow.

 

[GoRoos2023]

Same here, Will is a great kid. I think he should look at other options if he goes to the Tigers I will be cheering for him.

Yeah pretty horrific. For North we had picks 3, 13, 36, 42 & 56.

Phillips
Powell
Lazzaro
Spicer
Ford.
Think by 2026 we may only have Powell to show for that work.

Obviously if we could go back in time we would take Logan over Will.

Shit happens. Logan is no Buddy he does ok in a very very good team.

Wanna hear pain, losing Tarryn Thomas who is a better footballer than LDU for nothing. Not a pick nothing.

That hurts

 

[tigs2010]

I was going to say 99.9% of established players are more skilled and stronger lol

Especially considering the collateral you burnt to get TT.

Think the Tigers are into Will.
He’d be worth a punt for a late third or early forth.
Being ooc and us having first pick in the psd would give us some leverage in negotiations. But I’m neither here nor there if we get him.

I don’t think North will sweat anyone on the deal, hopefully they help the kid find the right home.

Maybe we are waiting to see whats left over after we offer LDU a new contract and see what we have left over if Viney decides to come over before Will gets an offer...

Pick #48 is about what we can spare

you know times are tough yeah

 

[jakson68]

I would like Will at Collingwood.

And the way we trade, North would be every chance of a future first and second for him .

With perhaps a third coming back.
