Act XIX - Jack Billings

Post: # 1505591Post Saint wagga »

Signed till the end of 2017!! Maybe a little underwhelming after all the joking around of massively long contracts and him being the final cresendo of resignings :-)) Maybe those rumours of a trade made the club jittery so they pushed him forward a few days ;-))

So no Weller yet? Anyone else glaringly not extended yet?

Not sure whether Hickey was previously signed up or whether he is still to come.

Weller and Schneider remain the only uncontracted players on the list. Although you'd think Weller will round out the future fest tomorrow.

Arryn Siposs the only player on the list under the age of 23 who hasn't received an extension.

Seems odd to close it out with Weller and not Billings. Perhaps he isn't getting an extension?

The club should be commended on this whole campaign. I'm sure if it was a hawthorn, geelong or Collingwood it would have been
lauded as a great campaign by the media.
Spose its good that we are not in the media for a change, but this has been quite an original and smart little undertaking

Good campaign. Billings a bit more exciting than Lee.
Hopefully Sippa will be delisted now

BBMD - On the email that was sent around to all the members, it states: "Jack Billings, 19 years old and committed to the saints until 2017, who will be revealed tomorrow?"

I'd say it's safe to say that he's not the last signing?
- Unless it was a generic message and the marketing team forgot to remove it...

My power over the club has once again been shown. Obviously had to move after my revelations.

New coffee machine has also been purchased for the Seaford stronghold.

Mav Weller has to be the last one -they can't ignore him as he finished 9th in the B & F

This email campaign is just a membership gimmick to keep the fans engaged.

Has no real meaning apart from that.

I dare say all contracts were in the main all well and truly already sorted apart from several players on the borderline, and whose fate may be determined by the trade period (what we get, or don't get....)
