      Yep we owed it to the player to get it done.
      They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

            Sammy put Brisbane under the heat and got pick 51 this year out of Brisbane last year.

            Then did the same to a reasonable manager at St Kilda and Dodoro Jr at Adelaide.

            He's started to form a reputation as a strong negotiator. Nice to have a list manager who makes the opposition realise they need to work hard for giving us optimal outcomes.

              Interesting of all the clubs, of all the list managers, Sam Power does the least amount of media but achieves the actual best outcomes for the list under his responsibility. Pretty much the exact opposite of the guys none of us like.

                  He is all you want in a list manager slightly overs for Keith but as GVGjr said owed it to him to get him across. Other players will take note of this when making their decisions in the future and you can't pay for that. If Yu don't believe that ask Daniher,Papley and a
                  Jack Martin.

                    Yeah Adelaide are contenders to slide again next year you'd have to think as well which would be fantastic

                      Watching the extended Josh Bruce press conference:

                      JB: “I had full faith in Sam Power the get the deal done.”


                      With many list managers not getting deals done, Sam might give us an edge in players picking our club not just on coming to an exciting group, but with a list boss who will ensure they get here. And as Josh says have confidence in Sam’s ability in declaring us as a destination.

                          We need to sign him long term. I hope he enjoyed telling Dodoro 'no' at 7.29pm as much as I would expect how good it would be.

                            That must be the best feeling.

                              And "I'm off to talk to Collingwood. They are waiting for me to confirm Trealor. BTW I have Josh Dunkley here, he wants to talk to you about something. I believe it's something along the lines of "you made a promise and then let me down you *!*!*!*!ing *!*!*!*! and I'm looking forward to my teammates and I playing Essendon next season!"
                              They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
