No way it's less than 700k a season with the cap increase.$500k seems very low to me.

I recall there were some stats spruiked a while ago when there were some concerns with Fog's development that showed stat wise he was either level or even ahead of where Tom Hawkins was at the same age/games.
Anyone to be able to track this now? I would assume Hawkins' spike is much steeper but Fog has no doubt been getting increasingly more consistent so who knows, this could be astute business.
Hopefully Fogary is on no more than 500k a year. Signing a player past 30 on a long term deal is fraught with danger. Would have offered him a 5 year deal to 2029.
I can tell you why. Fog is getting paid well under what he could have got if he put his name out there for a trade.Happy to see he's locked in, but from a wider club perspective, why so long? It's not like he was a big risk of leaving.
I can inly assume it was to help us smooth his overall payments out over a longer period.
The club works by offering longer contracts if they player wants less Money.This by no means a comment on Fog’s value, but I’ve got to say, Kane Cornes is right about these long contracts.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m stoked he’s committed, but was there really that much concern a local product like him would walk if we only gave him three more years?
All clubs are doing it, but we’ve seen plenty of contracts that teams already regret.
The only explanation I can think is managers are demanding this length or they won’t sign.

Would have thought somewhere between $750k & $800k, but who really knows.He'd be on 850+
He also went down the "fat-shaming" path too.Kornes about as enthusiastic of the contract as you’d expect.
To be fair being a Powa supporter Kane has probably forgotten what a good key forward looks like.
