Welcome to the Tiggers - Daniel Butler
- Thread starter K3
- Start date
Extracts from The Age on Butts moving to Saints:
"Until I saw my name at the Saints, my heart was beating pretty fast.
"It came down to the last five minutes of the trade period so I was getting pretty nervous."
Butler explained how he was able to pose for a photo on social media with a St Kilda jumper from the Indonesian holiday island so soon after officially becoming a Saint.
"One of the boys [former Richmond teammate] Jayden Short picked one up from a Bali market for about 10 bucks I think earlier in the day and had it ready for me," Butler laughed.
"I had a meeting with them [Carlton] as well [and] obviously got caught touring the club which wasn't great for me," he quipped. "It got close but in the end it wasn't to be." hmmm....not surprised

Punt Road End. The best place to watch The Tiges.
Apparently Dan is doing well at St. Kilda. Seen as a senior player. Good luck.
He will be the best performer of the 10 off season signings for the saints.
He has X factor.
Hill..good but just dosent do enough.
Ryder..he was finished 13 years ago.
Jones. besides pace, has no other quality.
Howard. Who? He was dropped from the shiitest port side in 20 years.. say no more

Just watching 2017 replays, and he had great vision, and some real tricks with the ball. In 2019 replays he was a differnet bloke. Totally without confidence, lost his dash, just looked a shadow of the 2017 version. The ankle late in 2018 really messed him up.
For a pick 67, he provided great service and leaves after 45 games as a Tiger legend. And wasn’t a passenger. Played some really good footy but had an elite talent in Bolton coming through. We made the right call playing Bolton ahead of him.
Good get by St Kilda, 23 year old still improving and solves their small forward problem.
Bigoa Nyuon was the Butler pick we got back wasn’t it?

He had a shocker in the 2017 GF though. I have always thought he might have been concussed in that game. Does anyone know?
I remember he did take a big hit in a marking contest at some stage.... and kicked that banana in the 4th!
Yeah, he copped one in the face in a marking contest, although he got up pretty quickly. Should have got a free.
Having watched it so many times now, I felt his grandfinal, notwithstanding his goal, was uncharacteristically poor. Poor decision making and hesitant, and gave away a dumb 50 in the last term that cost us a goal when we had all the momentum. IIRC, should have had a second 50 against him as well in the last qtr.
Not really relevant now I guess.
He'd either have a reasonable game and kick 2-3 goals or he'd have a stinker and do not much... he was always good as one of the three amigos applying pressure. In that sense it was a fairly typical game from him I thought. But yeah, he got a premiership medallion out of it!
Seems to be going pretty well..
Tore us to sheds last night.
Well done St Kilda for taking the punt.
They've picked up a quality player for free.

had the time of his life last night.
and George had to go see Kingy after the game and get a beard tattooed on the table tennis bat on his ars.
But 3 goals in round 4 aint 5 points in a premiership.
Premiership fringe blokes always do well at other clubs. Its a fact of footy
