Edited by Mods contracted until end of 2020

Post: # 1754026Post saintspremiers »

Will Edited by Mods stay until then with our new hard-arsed footy department (excluding Richo who is only a temp now!)?

He will stay on next year, but I reckon the tough love Saints will kyber him if he doesn’t deliver next year even with a year left.

Thoughts?

The word Spud is not required. There are no spuds playing AFL footy, especially when referencing Paddy.

Plus Paddy should be given until 2020 - end of his contact - to prove he can play over 150-200 games for the club. I'm backing him in for 2019 and 2020 at this point. When he gets a run on he goes pretty good.

Firstly, I don't think he's a spud. I think he's being terribly coached and very poorly taught.

Secondly, Why would they give a contracted player the arse?

He willis either thrive next year under new coaches or play for Sandy a lot. I'd try him as a kdp similar to brown

I like Paddy, but he definitely needs to take a decent step forward next year.

I'd love to see 'saintspremiers' call Paddy a spud to his face. Real hero on the keyboard.

Much like his No. 1 Draft Pick alumni, Jack Watts, the chance he comes good is worth more to us than anyone would pay in a trade.

Imagine we traded him to Geelong for a pick in the 40's, then he has a breakout year and plays the way we thought he could when we picked him. As bad a pick he is proving to be in hindsight, things would be so much worse if we let him go cheap and he comes good.

He's gonna be with us for a while yet.

Well...

Perhaps with these new coaches on board we might actually form something remotely like a forward 50 gameplan.

Strangely enough, Patrick might actually thrive.

For me Rodge', a first round pick in exchange (whilst/if we still can) would be a reason.

(The reason actually.)

Our player development next year is going to be our most important indicator.

More important than wind or losses in my opinion.

Agree I think it’s vital for next few years as we actually have some kids that IF developed properly could really come on
That’s the role for Richardson if we could just move him sideways

Interestingly, I reckon he'd be absolutely terrible in our current team.

Being developed in an attacking team, with Oliver, Gawn, Viney, Jones etc. around him though, and hey presto! He appears to be coming along Ok.

But if he's performing well enough to be worth a first round pick for someone - why would we get rid of him?

Gotta be kidding tef, I'm not sure where he got this 'developer of talent' rep… the guy is a complete fail on the development front… young guys asking to be traded if he stays, players who have been given the arse bemoaning his complete lack of communication skills.

Just get him away from our kids.

Wind is pretty important for those wind turbines.
