Pretty awesome if that contract offer is true and Martin turned it down. That's a really, really good offer from the Dogs. Surprised they would give him that big a contract.

Reported somewhere our offer is 4 years and on substantially less coin...like under the $600k he was getting at GC, and maybe as low as $500k + some incentives to earn more. But that means he's sacrificed a fair bit of cash to join us.

That’s always a good sign

If Stephen Silvagni lands these six big trade targets for Carlton, he’s officially a genius

It does give you the impression Martin doesn’t just want an easy ride for cash. Best outcome.

Another reason to love SPS

It's a long list....

Lol beginners mistake..guy wants out play him in the 2s for a couple games .. SOS walks in negotiating for a reserves player

SOS walks out with Martin, a second round pick and reluctantly agrees to pick up half of Martin's salary.

Ah that's interesting. It wouldn't go unnoticed by other Indigenous players. Our Club has been strong in this area for some time

Should be more, aboriginals just play footy in a way that was dreamt when the game first evolved.

Mal Rosas, he’ll excite a few...just get him

Yeah SOS should engineer a couple of future pick swaps with the Suns - the ones they did with the Lions for this year were horrible.

Also for those thinking Martin can’t be that great as he was dropped don’t forget the Suns also dropped Lyons twice last year and then delisted him and this season he’s been great for the Lions and probably has 5-10 Brownlow votes heading his way.

Also from another tweet:

Jack Martin

“He’s rejected more coin from the Bulldogs. I was told the Western Bulldogs offer was close to $700,000 per year for five years. He’s chosen Carlton over that.”

I’m more excited about this than the potential of getting Papley. Jack Martin is a freak and he’s been wasted on the Gold Coast. Turned down more money to come to a big club and play on the MCG with us, big tick already!

As a small half forward or lead up wing player has the potential to absolutely tear games to shreds! He’s shown glimpses at the GC. His hands and his footskills are next level insane. The thought of him and SPS in the same team warms the cockles! Hopefully we can push SPS back up the ground next year and have him and Martin terrorise opposition back halves!

Buntine rumour is interesting as I have heard through beer bottle glasses that we may not be completely finished with the GWS 3-1 specials. No idea who, so don't ask, just heard someone say they'd heard it in the paddock. Cant trust them ewes, or the sheep dog, or the nasty pigs, or the .........

What Buntine rumour?

He finished the season in the NEAFL is he in their best 22 ? ....I don’t Reckon he’s is worth a first round pick, the Suns can try tho

Banished to the NEAFL cos he was leaving. There is no other reason. He is absolutely in theirs, and our best 22.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Was trying to imagine what Eddie would look like in Navy Blue, so I ran some old photos through an age filter... get excited

I love a good silver fox

It's amazing how many times I've read someone asking why we want him after being dropped by the Suns despite that question being answered so many times.

Not even that the answer is bloody obvious.

I can't believe how good everyone is at photo-shopping Carlton jumpers onto Eddie Betts.....

Does it strengthen their request for a first rounder ?

nb. Yes he is in our best 22
