After paying out Brown, I doubt we have much room in this year’s cap to pay out Seed. Definitely not a player like Sloane.
Would we be close to 100% normally? 5% of the cap is a shitload of money.
Did we pay out Brown?
Good blokeNo, he just walked of his own accord and didn’t negotiate a cent of the final year due to him.
It depends on the definition of “Elite”.
I looked to put together an objective measure and came up with the following;
The player should be playing close to their peak and have been
1) A multiple All Australian (2+ times). This picks up the most influential Ruckman, Key forwards,Key defenders, medium/small forwards, medium/small defenders and midfielders.
It probably undervalues midfielders since the 7th best midfielder is usually more influential than the second best small/medium forward for that year however the AA selectors often adjust for this.
2. Multiple top ten finishes in the Brownlow.
Using this definition only Martin, Cotchin, Riewoldt, Rance and Lynch qualify. Laird also qualifies but he won his two AA as a defender.
In 97/98 we had Hart, Smart, Rehn, Rucciuto, Jarman, McLeod and Goodwin (who was not at AA level in 97/98).
I don’t get it. You’re ok with the contract we gave Crouch which is going to see him playing sanfl and instead paying out players to free up a list spot, see the contradiction?Id sooner see us pay out Seed or McPherson than delist Rowe completely. He is our best at reading the ball off hands deep forward and was played up the ground too much this season. We dream of Rankine having bursts through the middle, why not delist and rookie Rowe. His disposal is miles better than Murphy or Ned
Theres no contradiction. Seed is broken, McPherson below average, vanilla, and injury prone. Crouch can provide leadership in the SANFL if he plays there, and is much more likely to attract interest next year than Seed or McPherson will.I don’t get it.

Next year will be the one we lose Murphy or Ned and McPherson.Id sooner see us pay out Seed or McPherson than delist Rowe completely.

Rowe's disposal this year was terrible, on par with Ned and Murphy's goal kicking. He's like CEY, good SANFL player, but not up to AFL standard.
You don’t know Seeds is broken and if fit offers a hell of a lot more than Crouch in the AFL. Attract interest where?Theres no contradiction.

Good bloke

Pilchard didn't say that he'd attract more interest next year than he did this year. He said that he'd attract more interest than Seeds or McPherson would next year.If Crouch hasn’t attracted interest this year or even last year, why would he attract interest next year especially after spending another year in the sanfl?
Obviously yes totally agree, but in the context of the comment I was talking about the Goldstein incidentYou should be respecting all players (coaches, club staff), regardless of seniority.
If you're referring to us, there's a couple of delisting periods coming up - suspect we're going to have to chop a few and currently figuring out who they are.Every club has now turned over 4+ players, except one…….,
Offers from other clubs?I suspect Seed is on a reasnoble size contract. Leading up to his contract renewal he was in good form. Apparently had offers from other clubs so hard to see how we could do any kind of payout.

Oh no, another few pages about the list structure...According to Ch. 7, Seed is adamant he’s playing on.
So with Rowe and Davis the likely delistings, just not sure how we free up the list spots for both 23 and Michalanney?
Offers from other clubs?
He was contracted to us already, and we extended that deal for another year. Who was the club that was so desperate to get a contracted Seedsman?
McPherson delisted and to the rookie listAccording to Ch. 7, Seed is adamant he’s playing on.
So with Rowe and Davis the likely delistings, just not sure how we free up the list spots for both 23 and Michalanney?
I have no problem rolling pick 23 forward to next year - someone will come with a future 2nd for it plus some additional points for MM. We will be needing that pick next year given the plethora of delistings that should happen then.According to Ch. 7, Seed is adamant he’s playing on.

He can continue playing from the rookie listAccording to Ch. 7, Seed is adamant he’s playing on.

Can you delist a player in contract? Assume would need to be paid out?McPherson delisted and to the rookie list
So unless Turner gets delisted, no spare rookie slots
