Speculation Clayton Oliver [UFA 2030]

[stallon]

They won't get anywhere near a top 10 pick. No one will want him..

Then youll probably have to take more of the contract, likely the entire thing

 

[stallon]

If I was a Melbourne supporter, I'd be absolutely livid if my club got bent over and lost a 4 time BnF winner and 3 time AA midfielder for nothing. If Geelong's best offer is a 2nd round pick without taking on Oliver's salary, I'd rather tell them to shove it and let Oliver either pull his socks up or languish in the 2's.

I felt the same way during the drug saga when we had opposition clubs trying to feast on the carcass of our club.

Yep id pay him to sit at home if he was a bad influence at the club. Cant accept getting bent over

 

[Gee Class Loco]

Hawkins was on a 1 year contract and is 36
Rohan 1 year contract 33

Not exactly losing much there and they will need their list spots replaced regardless

U asked about money/salary room.
i just gave it to you.
So my job is done here.
Enjoy the rest of trade week.

Hawkins and Rohan would be lucky to be 500-600k between them something tells me Duncan isn't on 1.2+

 

[Couch Coach]

Didn't u hear... The big fella... Tom Hawkins has retired.
Along with the Red Baron/The Flash/Fanta Pants Gary Rohan has hung them up as well.
Don't forget Mitch Duncan has come OOC. He just signed for base wages to get 300 games as he's 3 off.
So there is pretty much your 2 u r looking for... or pretty close to it.

Strange. Geelong supporters have been saying for years that their players sign for unders but as soon as they retire it seems they are being paid the full amount?

"Not so. Hawkins was never on that much and took a paycut in his last contract."
Tom Hawkins has supposedly been on $300k:https://www.sen.com.au/news/2022/09/09/this-is-what-geelong-do-hawkins-shock-2023-salary-revealed/

They always bring up the 30+ Year olds on 1 year 200-300k deals and always leave out the likes of Holmes, Bruhn, Bowes, De Koning, Stengle, Miers, Henry, Henry, Close, Stewart on good wickets

Opposition nuffies spend all their time claiming most of these blokes are over-rated B-graders at best.

Now suddenly they're all superstars who must be on massive money?

Small brains find it easier to believe tin foil theories than to admit another club other than their own has their shit together. Doing most things better than the rest.

Can't possibly be that list management have looked after the list and TPP well.

No. Conspiracy it is.

Who's suggesting that? They're not "superstar names" sure but they're all very good footballers

 

[STPer18]

For what reason does the AFL refuse to act on Geelong's alleged salary cap rorting when the brainiacs on BigFooty.com have it all figured out? Why does the AFL persist on protecting this mid-sized club to the detriment of the 17 others?

AFL journos know the ins and outs of Melbourne's issues behind the scenes. They knew about Collingwood's GM of Footy quitting this year and the machinations of that. They knew every detail about Essendon's TB4 saga.

But a multi season cap cover up by the AFL... Tumbleweeds apparently.

Steve Hocking using his Secret Ninja Mind Rays to brainwash AFL House into letting the Cats off easy once again.

Is there no end to this man's perverse influence over the CFL?!?!

Because Geelong clearly knows where the bodies are buried at the AFL.

Likely on Rhys Stanley’s farm.

Geelong-related conspiracies basically cooked the minds of half the Richmond supporters on this website. It'll be sad(and a little funny) to see the other supporter bases head**** themselves into submission too.

Oops… I forgot about Danger and his contract of 900k finished this year.
Just a basic 300-400 k next year so these boys can come into the fold.
Hope that gets to that figure of 2 million u are looking for.
Now I’m off Living the dream .
Cheers

Reported Dees don’t want any of his salary if he goes. Can Geelong afford another 1.3m a year?

 

[T2B_]

If anyone can destroy Geelong from the inside it’s clarry. Godspeed son.

Could be unprecedented in his culture destroying ways.

So what is a good wicket? 400? 450? 500? 600? 750? 900?
Feel free to show us what they are on if u indeed have that info.

How about 300k and a few t-shirts to wear when you're pruning the money trees on your farm?

Does Melbourne really want to have a disgruntled player running around the 2s on $1m+ a year?

17 other clubs will be more than happy for them to do just that
