Has/ Will Harvey retire at seasons end

[eddiesmith]

I was thinking with the decision to increase Riewoldts pay packet next year the only way they could do this is if there was to be some room made in the salary cap

Made me think that perhaps Harvey had told the club this is his last year?

Your thoughts

 

[medozaaaaaaaaaa]

he's a veteran knobby, so his salary doens't count.
next ridiculous Reiwoldt comment please

 

[bucksisbest]

Half of Harvey's salary counts.

 

[medozaaaaaaaaaa]

that's what i meant

 

[eddiesmith]

Still $300000 plus that will make room for Riewoldts ridiculous increase

Whats so ridiculous about Harvey retiring???

If he aint then the Saints must be sacking a couple of top players or else they will break the salary cap

Oh wait they have taken over Essendon as the AFL's favourite team and can rort the salary cap all they like just like Essendon did for years

 

[medozaaaaaaaaaa]

or Reiwoldt's contract deosn't expire until end of 2005 ?

You really love relating everything back to your hatred of Essendon, dont you???

Oh well - 'another' to add to the list...

They have increased his contract for next season so they need room in the salary cap for next year

Mojoe, not as bad as every thread on this board ending up as an anti collingwood thread

Yup, he will probably get an increase, but $600K is pure fiction.

A) He's still contracted until next season

B) He hasn't re-signed anything yet

C) If you believe hearsay from the Herald Sun, then you've got serious issues.

Think about it. His Alves-knifing teammates (Loewe, Burke, etc) played one season too many. No reason why he won't do the same - the money's too good.

I can tell you he is not a selfish person and will retire with dignity.

Most players tend to drag on a bit longer than their use by date, but watching Harvs last night he can still handle himself on the big stage, although I did see him get tackled, which is a rarity.

Pace was never his strong point. Hands, balance and vision is what he plays on, and I dont reckon hes lost those, yet.

 

[hotpie]

Fair enough. He's a super player and probably has got another year in him unless salary cap issues force his retirement.

Harvey will be given the same opportunity as Stewie Loewe and Burkey to retire when he knows it is time! It won't be this year on his performances so far, he can still weave some magic in the midfield!
