Nah both Betsons played at Grovey before heading back up Shepp way. Disappointing they’ve decided to come back to a different club in the same league, but can understand why they didn’t go back to Grovedale if rumours are true

My understanding is the Betson’s both agreed to come back for a set period. I believe both work and live in the Geelong area. Kee Betson actually stayed a year longer than he’d agreed to initially.
My understanding was McCarthy would’ve headed to Ky last year but wanted to try his luck in the GV again at a different club. Was always going back there. They’d be disappointed to lose him after going to the trouble recruiting him.
Rutherford has returned to Melbourne for work and will resume with his former club. Was always a 2 year agreement.
The cats will need to recruit well to stay in the 6 next season as they’re probably 3 of their top 5 players.
That's crap really, he's being on an afl list for how many years? How about giving back? He's had plenty of time to find a job outside footy and use the contacts of two vic clubs to set himself up post footy.
It's a ridiculous system that allows some major leagues to have more cap room than others. There needs to be equality for all major leagues. The EDFL has a cap of 180k, WRFL 120K, and Geelong 105K. How can clubs compete financially whist this is allowed to happen? Its time that this sort of rubbish is put to bed.
Then again, how many clubs stringently adhere to it?
So many ways around it with the burden of proof meaning AFL Vic or leagues are rarely able to prove a club's level of involvement in things such as third party payments, employment and "gifts" turning up on a player's front doorstep in the dark of night.
Scrap the cap and make points the sole determinant. If clubs try to go on a spending spree to buy a flag, then the restrictions of points will mean they can't go overboard without upsetting players not getting a game.

I'd think most stay close, but why do metro teams have a larger salary? There's less travel involved, more people live in Melbourne. I agree with ringo it should be metro clubs 100k, geelong, bendigo Ballarat gippsland, hampden oandm 125k.
It's not hard, what's madigan doing?
Agree %150 Trentos
. Give something back. By the time he's finished milking the suburban cash cow he won't be worth a pinch of poop up here so why not give ur local club some valuable quality service while you can. This is an example of money stuffing footy.

What , travel from Melbourne up to the Goulburn Valley?....yeh real big ask that isn't
Agree %150 Trentos
I guess the kid is free to do whatever he likes in the end
How very profound of you. Yes that is true but in my opinion I think he could give something back locally.
If you say so

He’s signed with Donny East in efnl premier. They throw cash like confetti there. Already have Simon white ex Carlton Taylon Duman ex freo Chris deluca ex Carlton/freo and Tommy bell ex Carlton and Brisbane. Perhaps bell and schache were mates up north?

What are the reasons that some 'Division one' leagues have more money in the cap? I bet there isn't one!
