Jay Clark gets his stuff straight from Ross.This has come from a pack of seat sniffers from the Herald Sun and people are losing it lol, let’s just see what happens.
Losing band 1 over 50k seems utterly ridiculous.
Surely we can take a player off Hawks list they don't want as a salary dump and we throw them a late pick.
If we mess this up over 50k we are just an incompetent mess. Don't think it happens though.
So the club can't up their offer to over 1m+ if we are not going to get band 1 compo?The club doesn't control any aspect of this. What don't you get about that
I wouldn’t count on any of this. But how on earth can 6 x $ 850k be end of first round.There is no way we don’t get band 1 with all the whining out President does about us getting screwed over, the clubs will make sure it happens
Not really gringo it’s all about the want he would just need a proper preseason. Young guy like that hasn’t got any smaller or lost the skills that made him a top 10 pick. Cooper Sharman for example was playing up the country then went to the sanfl.A long way back from playing suburban footy.
awww, don't be like that, give us a kiss!!This forum has gone to proper shit and mostly from posters like you.
Stuff that, we should get band one even if he stays! If Hawthorns offer is enough to trigger band one and we offer the same then we should get band one and Battle.Maybe he just meant that the compensation won’t be band 1 because Josh Battle ain’t going nowhere.
If we screw this up then someone needs to go it’s that simple. You can’t have a full season to get this right and let it blow up in your face and keep your job.I wouldn’t count on any of this. But how on earth can 6 x $ 850k be end of first round.
If we pay $1m for Battle we should riotSo the club can't up their offer to over 1m+ if we are not going to get band 1 compo?
The club can't try and negotiate with Hawks to pay Battle the extra $50k if we take a player of their list to ease any their cap issues.
We can't pay overs in trade terms for a player they don't want?
The club has plenty of cards it can play. There is an opportunity to work with Hawks to make sure both parties are satisfied.
If we lose band 1 compo over 50k and we were unwilling to offer more than 850k given our cap room, it would be comically poor list management.
You don't just cop the outcome and go "Oh well, nothing we can do". If need be you offer Battle 1.1m. Who cares?
What is the alternative, let him walk for pick 30 and then go and spend some money on Shiel? It's okay to overpay a hack like Shiel but not Battle?
I don't think it will happen, but if we lose Battle for a second rounder because we are unwilling to pay overs, or strike a deal that works for the Hawks, this will be the biggest fumble from the club since McCartin.
Stuff that, we should get band one even if he stays! If Hawthorns offer is enough to trigger band one and we offer the same then we should get band one and Battle.
Makes as much sense as the Bombers fans wanting Gresh and the compo last year.
Nah, Battle will re-sign then we’ll trade him for Shiel and Parker.Everything says I am a club shill and always back the club, so don't shoot the messenger.
Coming from multiple sources now.
But don't worry North get band1 for Mackay, Brisbane the flag favourite get Ashcroft and we get band 2 for Battle.
Also looking forward to Shei dominating the midfield for us.
Lol what a club hey?

Was a secret herbs and spices recipe remember,This has always been the issue with allowing him to become unrestricted. We hold no leeway. We'd be better off offering him massive overs than losing him for a pick around 20 that probably blows out to 30. But then if he just wants to leave we're screwed.
Having said that how does Ralph know the exact figure of band one, isnt it a secret?
We have been overpaying spuds for well over a decade. If Battle leaves we will no doubt blow 500k on Shiel.If we pay $1m for Battle we should riot
Exactly we don’t need to get too cute here.We have been overpaying spuds for well over a decade. If Battle leaves we will no doubt blow 500k on Shiel.
An extra 200k or so is nothing. It either forces Battle to rethink or potentially forces Hawks to come up and we get band 1.
Club shill? Haven’t you cAnCeLLeD yOuR meMbErShiP 3 times and counting??Everything says I am a club shill and always back the club, so don't shoot the messenger.
