Is it just me or do both W and O have that steely look in their eyes.

No, they are special. Big size to go with the eyes, too.
Spectacular recruiting.

When I first saw him......something about him reminded me of Rod Keogh

would love him to develop into Luke Parker type

Credit to my Dad who spotted this: it’s the massive, slightly hunched shoulders. Absolute wrecking ball.

Loved Keogh but think MW may have him covered over the journey.

All three of Windy, Mitch and NWM will be good players but I fear that NWM will beat the Crows or Port.

Finally - had heard this about NWM - was not going to bring it up

I hope not but if the Crows want him they give us their first and a swap of seconds as a minimum.

Homesickness - allegedly.

If we can’t persuade him to stay I guess we ask for a first round draft pick. That’s what he cost us … and he looks the goods

[B.M]

That’s a shame - he can play

I suppose that’s the risk you take with interstate kids

Yeah mate I heard the rumour & was hoping it was just a rumour . I heard he was unhappy at being dropped & is delaying contract talks , how much truth is in that I have no idea as I said I'm hoping it's just a rumour

Farg him off now if that is his attitude. Will become a liability with that type of poor attitude.

It's only a rumour might be no truth to it. Social media is full of sh--t most of the time could all be some South Australian's wishful thinking . Let's just wait & see before we get too carried away

If he is sooking because he was dropped. We need to URGENTLY look at our development coaches.

Kids should be given the heads up that they will be in and out of the team. They need to develop. Giving them a run in the seconds can free them up, allow them to hone their skills.
There is a lot of learning that young players need. Including humility.

It is about time some of the coaches start coaching and leadership group stand up.

Stop the amateur hour.

The clubs that succeed are ruthless and single sighted in their goal. Premierships. If it is not leading the most direct way to a premiership it is a waste of time and resources

If he’s sooking it may be because he is homesick. The kid is 19 and it’s entirely plausible that he is missing family and friends, It’s a huge adjustment for a young guy. Being dropped - which happens to virtually every young player - won’t have helped, sure.

But who knows? This is all based on unfounded rumour and speculation. No doubt Power or the Crows are hoping it is true.

[BadRossco]

My comment on the likelihood of NWM wanting to return home was based on the fact that he was yet to sign a contract extension not the rumour file. Does anybody know what the status of his current contract is as it may be best to arrange a deal while we still have some bargaining power. Connor Rozzie was a saints fan and would be a good swap.

[Yorkeys]

What has Aunty Katrina got to say about the matter?
And Brad & Paddy & Ben......
Who would swap Ratts for Hinckley or Nicks.
Hard to believe, actually.
