What compensation do we get if he goes for that?

$850k seems what the media believe… Absolute steal with Ben’s output this year and the reported 8x$1.5m offered to Weitering… We could have back ended the contract with the upcoming increases in the cap…

Just don't see Weiters going to the Aint's under Ross Lyon. The most boring coach and game plan ever.

Ahhh the old “warchest” … worked great for Norf. Sure it’ll work great for another irrelevant team in the rabble

Didn't the full article say that Weiters was prepared to take a little off his true value?

$12m over 8 years is insane for a KPD…
No way would Weitering turn that down, if our offer is sub $1m and who would blame him…
We’d also get Buddy Franklin type compensation…

SOS is not going to stop. He holds grudges.
For instance, he will make us pay overs for the Campo twins. He won’t batter an eyelid.

i don’t believe the 8 years thing for a second. That would be his 18th season. The $1.5mil part is what a few clubs like North and Hawthorn for instance should be offering and Balta probably won’t be far off that either

No one is forcing us to pay overs for anybody. That is our list managers choice.
Happy for SOS to ruin the Saints, which he will if he makes all of his decisions with Carlton in mind. It would be funny to see him blow a top 5 pick on one of Campos.
Weitering wont be leaving this year, trading him would be closing our window shut and there is no compensation that would be enough to do that. If he wants to leave in 2025 as an FA that’s the game, we will have a million bucks and a first round pick to use elsewhere. Good on him for setting himself up for life.
FWIW I’m all but certain he finishes what he started and plays out his career as a Carlton legend. He has been an advocate for keeping this core group together so I can’t see him jumping off here. He will no doubt get looked after plenty later on.

Linton St rabble would have to trade half their list to get enough picks for us to agree to a trade for Weitering. Knowing SOS he'd offer a 3rd rounder.
Looking forward to him bidding on Ben Campo at pick 4 when they finish bottom 4.

How could SOS make us pay overs for the Campos?
We either match the bid with points (which requires picks of significantly lesser quality) or we pass. He can spend a first round pick on a grudge.
There is no need to be spooked by SOS.
Yep, we certainly have reached the silly season, where agents leak ludicrous things to the media to try and eke out a few extra dollars for their client
The odds of Weitering, who played the first 2/3 of his career for a bog awful team, leaving to go to St Kilda for his twighlight years if we finish top 6 and they finish bottom 6 would strike me as being extraordonarily low.

The 26-year-old dual John Nicholls medallist still has one more season remaining on his current deal but his management and the club will look to get an extension done before the end of the season, with Weitering saying the senior Blues are fiercely committed to the club.
“I will stick around for as long as I can,” Weitering said of his connection to the Blues.
“This was the club that drafted me and put its faith in me as the No.1 pick and the ultimate goal for all of us is a premiership.

SOS wont have much leverage, Saints will have a pick around 5, he wont bid then, if he does, then do the right thing and let him have him.
There second rounder which will be high is where he will make a bid, but that’s no big deal.
