St Kilda fans have put up signs reading ‘We love you Nas’ during their clash on Sunday, but will Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera love them back?<\/p>\n

Wanganeen-Milera’s future has seemingly come down to two teams, with the Saints and the two teams from his home state of South Australia in Adelaide and Port Adelaide.<\/p>\n

There were no further indicators from the Saints’ superstar after his team won by 9 points against North Melbourne on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Interviewed on\u00a0Fox Footy\u00a0after the game, the St Kilda superstar said a decision will come in time as fans eagerly await.<\/p>\n

“I was sorting that out with the club and my manager, but just sort of going about my business playing footy at the moment. So that’ll come in due time,”\u00a0Wanganeen-Milera said.<\/p>\n

Saints coach Ross Lyon jokingly said the signs the supporters were putting up wouldn’t affect him, but he hopes it will help them sign him.<\/p>\n

“If it’s me, I’ve got no heart, right, so it doesn’t affect (me), but hopefully Nas has got a heart, and hopefully it has an effect,” Lyon said in his post-match press conference.<\/p>\n

“It’s great to be talking, great to have a player like this that’s out of contract that we’re excited about, the comp’s excited about, and good luck to him, and good luck to us.<\/p>\n

“I’m sure there’ll be an answer at some point.”<\/p>\n

It will be an interesting time for the Saints, with some saying it would be a disaster<\/a> if the club didn’t sign him as he continues a great season that should see him selected in the All-Australian squad.<\/p>\n

Wanganeen-Milera was drafted at pick 11 in the 2021 draft and has played 82 games for the Saints so far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"St Kilda fans have put up signs reading ‘We love you Nas’ during their clash on Sunday, but…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":40608,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[560],"tags":[638,64,63,55,639,85],"class_list":["post-40607","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-afl","tag-afl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australian-football-league","tag-australianfootballleague","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40607","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=40607"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/40607\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/40608"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=40607"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=40607"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=40607"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
