1.1M for a 31 year old who'll miss half the games, and won't be there in their premiership window is absolutely on brand here.
While that's true, clubs have that minimum list spend rule. North's money has to go on someone, so they either overpay one of their kids (which isn't ideal given nobody wants to reduce salary as they age), or pay up for a veteran with leadership qualities. If Yeo was the best they could get, yeah it's not ideal, but it might be worth it in the long term if it lifts the standards around the club.

It's not like the Heeneys of the world are going to go to North. They couldn't get Dusty back when they weren't a basket case on the field.
 
Colin Young is running this, and everyone involved is going to get right royally rooted.

Edit: Have just read it's a front-loaded offer from Adelaide. This is a perfect scenario. Colin "The Frontend Loader" is on the charge.

How can Colin Young be running this?? He’s not even Yeo’s manager ffs. Jason Dover from TLA is his manager.

I would be more concerned about the chatter around Tom Barrass
 
3 years for someone his age who's missed time with injury......

I guess it part of it was transition to a coaching role then it might make sense.....but geez you'd be hoping he gets back to his absolute best playing fitness.
2 years with a games played trigger for year 3 (75% of games or something) . 3rd year is at 500k too so a bit more reasonable

Great deal for Elliot Yeo
3 years

Surely has to have a trigger for the 3rd year
 
Yeo makes sense for Eagles if the 3rd year is a trigger based year
Money is not important and they probably will struggle to meet the cap floor this year and can pay him $1.5 this year to make the next 3 years $400k years
 
Wasn't there a woman by the name of cow something said she had it on good source that north offered 3 x 1.3 mil?

Anyone with link?
