Bodes well for us that is was a north fan that posted it

It's public information, no different to those Corpus Christi newsletters.

If Gaff passes on the money because a North supporter posted something in the digital/social media age then I'll be driven to the Pine Barrens and swiftly despatched

Guys, just heard some breaking news. Gaff's mum is about to go into labour to give birth to him and it's going to happen in Victoria. Unfortunately this means it's likely that he will be Victorian. Seems a certainty he's leaving now.

Paul Connors is the father

Is she facing west?

Agreed. If it's available in the public domain then everyone needs to chill. Fair bump, play on.

The newsletter that has been posted was from 2015 but when the information first started a couple of months ago there were people saying they knew here/were on FB with her etc saying she'd just given her notice. Her Linkedin still shows her as being employed by Corpus Christi:
...
Realistically means one of three things: she was re-hired, she hasn't had another job since or she hates Linkedin.

OFC she re-signed with Corpus. Just had Connors negotiating her contract for her in 2015. Plays bloody hardball that fella, knows how to use the media.

His kids go there I believe.

I heard Gaff's missus emailed in her resignation but she'd actually just been hacked.

Gut feel is Gaff’s staying. This is pure friend of a friend stuff, absolutely, but his missus is looking for work at Perth private girls’ schools and supposedly his preference in private is to stay. Just having to decide between life altering money and staying.

Gaff's misso has resigned from Corpus #watchthisspace

Colour me poor but i hardly see 800k vs 1000k pa as the difference between life changing and not

Won't even get you 20 Bitcoins that difference.

I can see it now; "If only I'd ummm, signed for ummm North, I'd have like, ummm, ahhh 19 more Bitcoins by now"...

Less 50% tax remember.

Chris Judd agrees with that:

“It is very rare that an offer from one club is different enough for this to be the case and with this definition a move from $800,000 per year to $1.1 million a year is not material - even though $300,000 is a huge sum of money, post tax, it’s unlikely to provide a significant change to what life is like after football for the player.

Hopefully you can afford some decent financial advice out of all that cash.

I note that Judas didn't comment on let alone cite the circumstances of his own move

There are only two over-arching reasons why AFL footballer should change clubs and the players who have successfully made the switch fit into one of the two categories: Either there’s a problem with their living environment or there is a problem with their current club.

So I guess it was the drug saga afterall......
Even if he goes on to say this
Homesickness is one of the more understandable reasons why players move and there’s been plenty of successful examples where this has worked. Paddy Dangerfield moving back to live at Moggs Creek and playing for Geelong is the standout example of a successful trade for someone wanting to come home.

A Freo supporter i know seen Gaffs mrs in the line at centerlink... must be going on the dole, bodes well... i think

If the offer from North is correct at 1.2 and we are offering 800K over 6 years ? Obviously we can all do the math, you would almost be negligent to yourself by not taking the higher offer. Possibly his quandary ?

We need a gofundme page for gaff, it should be outside the cap.

 

[Avalor]

After watching him out on the ground with the lads after the prelim, I reckon Daffy is staying. Just a body language thing. Fingers crossed.

Listening to ABC Radio interview with Mel Whinnen before today’s WAFL GF.

Given Norfs near miss recruiting record of recent years I had a little laugh when Mel said he had rejected a Norfs offer all those years ago.

His missus is looking for work at Perth private girls’ schools

If there's one thing that this club can help with, it's pulling strings at private schools. All that western suburbs support has got to count for something...

St Kilda would be able to meet her demands if she wants to mover to Melbourne.

 

[who gives a]

I said earlier Gaff to sign a 3 year deal. I've been told now it's 2 years and this will happen in middle of next week.
