NDS-Where's he at?
What's going on with his contract?
Anyone in the know?
This is going massively under the radar. We cannot afford to lose him to GC17 or our window will be officially shut

NDS is 26.
By the time Gold Coasts premiership window opens NDS will be ready to retire.
That's why Brock McLean left Melbourne for Carlton.
McLean could not wait for Watts, Scully, Trengove etc to develop.
NDS does not have a premiership medal or a brownlow around his neck.
He knows he will get neither playing with a bunch of developing children.
NDS is going nowhere, St Kilda offers the things he craves most - premiership window now and personal glory.

The more you know, the more you know you don't know.
When I was a young child, I knew that I knew so much about so much.
Now that I am old and know so much more, I know that I know so much about so little, and so little about so much.

They won't chase anyone older than 23 unless its Ablett.
For mine, Armitage is the only one on our list likely to make the shift.
And given he's getting the Ball deal now and he bends bananas, why wouldn't he?

On this team we tear ourselves and everyone around us to pieces for that inch. We claw with our fingernails for that inch. Because we know when we add up all those inches that's gonna make the f***in' difference between winning and losing! Between living and dying!'

Old enough to repaint, but young enough to sell
No way he will be going up North. Is very focused on the Saints and very family oriented. Parents go to every Melbourne game. (Well, bar one this year when they attended a function that I was also at!) They are ultraproud of him - as they should be. Not a chance he will move on IMO.
Hird... The unflushable one is now... just a turd...

Agree re Dal. Players in his age group are basically giving up all hope of playing in a Premiership if they head north.Quixote wrote:Would be utterly shocked if Dal went and frankly, it just ain't gonna happen.
Armo would have to be short-priced favourite.
With Armo, who knows? However if he does go it will not, IMO, be because of the QLD thing (Mackay is a long way from the Gold Coast) but rather due to perceived better opportunities.

Armo has a fantastic opportunity right now to turn things around and become a great Saint.
Let's face it. He wasn't dropped for form reasons alone.
He worked himself back into great touch in the 2's, then untimely, was injured.
The second half of this year will tell us a lot about Armo, as I'm sure if he's fit (uninjured) and in form - Ross will pick him.
Big chance to prove a lot to your doubters, to the Club and probably to yourself Armo!
