Man Shake ads aren't paying enoughMerv's playing footy now-at his age??
Applied Capology will make you go blind. Just to add to the confusion,Just a query, we have lost:
Brown C
Brown T
Grundy (still paying part of salary)
Henry
Chugg
McMahon
Roughhead (R)
Have added, McStay, Hill, Frampton and Mitchell.
How has this helped our salary cap as I doubt the new players would be earning less than those delisted?
Not entirely clear from the poster's response, but I think p.a.In total or per annum?
Great either way with Collingwood only paying 150 for Grundy and the Treloar subsidy likely gone too.
I don’t know if he is. Making assumptions here.Didn't realise he was. Interesting!
It's 650k in total which we are paying all up front this yearNot entirely clear from the poster's response, but I think p.a.
Stengle has been the big inclusion here. Still spewing we missed on him. Rohan will never have another game like he had against in that finalGeelong brought in Rohan and Dahlhaus in the same off season to correct their forward pressure, because it was so poor they were getting smashed on the rebound. They'll get to relive those glory days with Henry.
Because he's a frolicker, just wafts around like a butterfly and doesn't like to train very hard
Good move I reckon. So we'll clear the Grundy debt in one fell swoop and get rid of our Mitchell commitment, then we'll have clear air for 2023 and beyond. I like that.It's 650k in total which we are paying all up front this year
The karma bus always gets you. Our dealings with the Bulldogs in 2020 were equally distasteful and we have a situation two years later where they lose one for unders. Amazing isn’t it that they managed to lose Dunkley when we’re basically paying Treloar’s wage for them
Biggest winner (player wise) this trade period I think was JHF. Back to SA and with a 6yr contract to go with it.It’s a little funny that Melbourne are being praised for Grundy despite taking on most if not all his contract for the 4 years beyond ‘23, yet at the same time we were criticised when the contract was done. Another example of long term contracts being ok for some clubs, but not others?
Hawks could possibly do it with 6Just on the pussies 3 acquisitions.
NONE of them are regular starting senior players. They may develop but still speculation and they still have to leapfrog current premiership players.
The pick 7 is a bonus however. Would love another team grab Clark from under their noses.
They have potentially F’d themselves.Not as convinced on Richmond as you are.
Taranto and Hopper are very similar types to Prestia, big but not quick. That could be a big weakness, might mean they need to play Boltin more in the middle.
And they have no draft position for the next 2 drafts as well as two 7 year @ $750000 contracts

That’s the big Q against them for me and I think we’ll have a similar one with Mitchell and Adams. That said I think the quality of TT and Hopper v who they’ll replace is why I see immediate improvement in a two tiered system discussion. In hindsight it may not be a fantastic call long term, but here and now they improve, IMO.Not as convinced on Richmond as you are.

I hope they do. If anything, the Cats reported interest will certainly make other clubs pay a little more attention to Clarke and put him under consideration.Hawks could possibly do it with 6
I see merit in 4 years for high draftees, but with 6 years what happens in the remaining couple of years if JHF doesn’t develop for whatever reason? Tom Boyd is the most recent example of such a trade/contract. While he played is best game in the grand final from a cap perspective the dogs were fortunate he retired early and sacrificed pay.Biggest winner (player wise) this trade period I think was JHF. Back to SA and with a 6yr contract to go with it.
Puts a few on that list on the back foot I’d reckon.
Outside of Ashcroft, I think Wardlaw, Tsatas, Clark, Sheezel and Cadman will be high selections.I hope they do. If anything, the Cats reported interest will certainly make other clubs pay a little more attention to Clarke and put him under consideration.
Honestly hilariously bad. Bulldogs in the 8?? Carlton ahead of the Lions? Port ahead of us?
Can only hope so.They have potentially F’d themselves.
He always has. Anth McConville was his agent since day 1….Im sure Mackie now has a great relationship with the McConvilles's.
Probably still does despite me.being facetious as the player management showed us they were a few tools short of a tradeshed.
Feel free to identify the superstars coming off contract, particularly the FAs.

GW already said our cap is fine, next year we are back on a level playing fieldIf we are paying 650k and all of it next year then our salary cap can’t be that bad. We’ve brought in a few players and we are paying 650 plus 300 for Treloar is just short of 1m for nothing.
I’m ok with pick 27 if we are just paying 650k of Grundy’s contract.
But it is going to make Melbourne stronger for next year having him for 300k. All in for them next year because after that they are going to have cap issues
