Can Sydney keep Warner and avoid more trade bans?

[sthmelb_dimmies]

I can feel it in me bones

 

[TheGoatBaron]

We'll get a trade ban just for keeping the most spudliest player on our list dude. It's the Vic way.

 

[Underarm]

They wouldn't be a trade ban, they would just limit future Acadmy picks to outside 1st or 2nd round.

Which makes sense as Warner wasn’t an academy pick?

I am more worried about being Dawson-ed again and if Warner decides to leave we get shafted at the trade table because of the threat of the PSD.

You need to trade Heeney and Gulden to WC this year then so they rise up the ladder and take their threat of the PSD out of play

Always good to see a bunch of posters sooking about a hypothetical.

And since we are all subscribed now, Sydney board.

 

[NetworkNerd]

Need to give the other 17 clubs a chance. Having the swans win the next 8 flags isn't good for the comp.

The balls on these Swans fans... to whinge about being done over by the AFL

This is a joke, right?

Talk about people living in alternate realities and spreading "fake news"

Including this season, the mollycoddled Swans have made the finals 19 times in 22 years.

It's probably written in the AFL's tv contract with Channel 7 that we can't have them finishing down the ladder with a half empty SCG. Friday night footy with Swans vs Pies/Blues/Bombers/Cats/Tigers is one of Channel 7's golden geese in the TV ratings.

I look forward to the day when the AFL removes all the recruiting concessions, ambassador payments, salary cap swindles, special handouts, favours, inside info, and just makes it a level playing field with the same rules & opportunities for every club.

It's a dream I have... Probably never happen... The AFL is all about money & maximising their revenue

But I'm allowed to dream.

But you only have the salary cap squeeze because of the other Academy picks.

I don't think they will do anything to Sydney, but if they did want to weaken the advantages that they get that's what they would do.

Warner leaves to Freo
Sydney cop a trade ban anyway
AFL shuts down their academy rort
All Victorian clubs get a COLA

Done.

Jeez you Swans fans are entitled

So it’s ok for Hawthorn to threepeat, just not anyone else?

 

[RAPPA]

Nothing that a bottle of cola won’t help soothe

Providing the Swans have the same salary cap structure as every other team, then they can keep whoever they want.

It is the same

I'd rather the Geelong salary cap

We havent won anything...?

Meanwhile you had a 3 peat just a decade ago i dont see the comparison.

 

[adammania9]

Biggest victims in the game are Sydney fans. Always have been. In their heads only, that is.

I say again. I'd be happy for the AFL to fund the Northern Academies to develop football in the Northern States and have an open draft. And....the father/son and NGA to also go and the AFL to reimburse the Swans the minimum $1mill pa that the club has been funding for their Academy. How much have the other clubs been funding for their father/son free hits?

Ah yes of course very astute there

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

Would like the equivalent of all the pokies sub leased to Carlton players, the cashies provided by the coteries at Catville (and ‘jobs’ at Cotton On), Blues and Pies, media deals etc. The sooner the ATO runs its tape measure over all the Clubs the better.

Yes it is.

a level playing field with same rules for every club.

Good luck in a competition that inherently favours teams from traditional football states, particularly Victoria.

Glad you're on board!
