Ok now we hear on the radio that the gc has a salary cop of $2.8 mill in excess of most clubs ?
We also hear the uncontracted players are unable to be signed until after season 2009 finishes but wait the gc is wanting that brought forward
So the gc with concessions will have maybe 30 under 20 year old players all earning under 100,000 which leaves a bucket to target uncontracted players I think the normal salary cap is $5.8 but I can't find a document

So the gc can forward load contracts to entice a superstar

Looks like a recipe for success and extended succuss at that if they draft well. I guess it will all depend on the guys that nominate that year.

Extended succass you mean?

The clubs have agreed to what they are getting, they wont be giving them anything more. It would require all the clubs to agree to it and they think they have given too much as it is.

And they're spot on.

I have to say that I’m not overly excited by the level of concessions that the GC club is going to receive. I think that the AFL is over compensating so as not to have a similar situation as the last time they created a club in QLD. $2.8M is a massive amount of money, it surprises me that the other clubs are not kicking up a bigger stink. Collingwood were famous for complaining about Brisbane’s concessions and they are a drop in the ocean compared to this. I don’t have a big issue with helping the club to be at least competitive however I also wonder what the damage to the competition might be if the GC were to be too successful too quickly. If they pinched a flag in their first decade so be it. If on the other hand they won several in that time with a small fanbase there will be a great deal of resentment amongst other supporters. Some teams haven’t won a flag for decades (if ever) and are being asked to stand by and roll out the carpet for another club to do so.

Ahh Mardi gras, *smiles knowingly*

The AFL are trying to buy instant success for the GC just like they did for Sydney and Brisbane. All the 'extras' just reinforce why it is that these areas are not ready for a football side.

I believe it's $2.8m over 3 years, rather than per year.

I believe it's $2.8m over 3 years, rather than per year.

If I read my own quoted document it adds up to 2.8 mill over 4 years starting at 1mill dropping to 400,000 in the 4th years which does seem reasonable as only by splashing huge dollars will they entice anyone.
It really depends how many mature uncontracted players they can get / entice.

40 players ave 75,000 for the under 20s is 3mill from the salary cap 5.8 +1
leaves 3.8mill for 8 players which is only ave 400,000 each and of course there is promotional allowances

The AFL want this team on the GC to be successful and they will do evertything to make it happen.I think they could pinch a Premiership in 4 years if they recruit well.Hopefully we will not lose 2 much to them.

 

[fairdinkum]

Robert Walls is a bitter, old spud well passed his use-by date, but even he could coach a club with that many concessions to three flags on the trot.

Hate to be the supporters whose club(s) finish runners-up in the years that the GC 'win' their flags...

 

[ZACK WILD]

I dont think that the gc17 will win a flag in ten years .The thing that worries me most is that the alf and all clubs are taking a massive risk on this expantion plan because all hope is on the tv rights deal ,the pot of gold .It better work
