Nick was with Bailey Smith, and now has helped lure Houston. Sure they have a history, but if Nick wasn't such a good person, good stories like this don't happen.

I think Dan Housten needs some tatts, and needs to add an 'e' to his first name.

Dan’s intro video is up. Bit of history of with the Daicos bros, Moore and Jordy, he’ll fit right in. Love his comments he wants to be a leader.

Gotta remember he initially picked Melbourne. (As did Waterman from WCE). If not for the shitshow at that club, we probably dont get Dan.

Petracca. The gift that keeps on giving. He grew up a Pies fan, and he's served our club well without ever wearing the black and white.

Ha... worth a read
Love this quote :
" He averages seven marks per week for the Oakleigh Chargers, but just 1.6 goals. This is attributed to the fact he spent the first few games in defence – a move that did not work out."

And many more Gems.
I don't blame the staff writers, his type is a hard call.
