Agree, but can't see him leaving the Lions unless got a ridiculously huge contract offer.
considering the numbers being floated around… just what is ridiculously huge? To move for money …just how much more woudl it be in pocket than he going to get from Brisbane. 1.3M? 1.5M?
Yeh it's bizarre. We would be no where near the numbers being floated you'd imagine. Even at 1.2 a year you'd imagine that's 400k more then he'd get at the lions.
The issue though is the comp pick you get ..is probably going to get absorbed by Ascroft who is probably top5. So do you trade that pick out for later picks or trade it into another player
IMO the Lions would be prepared to go to 1 Million per season for McCluggage and possibly a little more.
I wouldn't have thought so. But I have absolutely zero knowledge in this regard. I'd assume he would be taking fair unders if he stays tho.

Daly has already said he expects Clug to be offered in the facility of $1 million and we’ll be prepared to pay it especially with the cap rise

I’d say 1.2m would be hard to turn down elsewhere

See you on the 9th green at 9
We will be paying him 1.2

I doubt that but we’ll see
The trouble is we really do not know what Bris will offer.

We have set aside the money in our cap to do it.
These are always interesting discussions. If it were you, would you leave for 1.2 if you were offered 1.0 to stay? Pre tax of course.
How much money is enough?
‘Big breakthrough’ in race to sign ‘footy’s most in-demand player’
7NEWS reporter Mitch Cleary has revealed a significant update that will affect the plans of several AFL clubs.

I really hope the deal wasn't too high for us, because McCluggage demonstrated again today that he's a good player, but not a million dollar a season player.

On the first day of pre season McCluggage should walk up to Levi Ashcroft, plant him a big kiss on the cheek and present him with keys to the brand new car he bought for him as thanks for being one of the top picks of the draft
That boy literally handed McCluggage 1 million bucks

Would it be worth letting him leave for a 2nd top 10 pick? He will get band 1 for sure.
In my view, yes, if there's a possibility of trading with North or West Coast to get above a bid for Levi Ashcroft. But other Lions fans may disagree.

Eagles won't finish low enough to trade 2 top 10 picks
Richmond, then.

That you won’t want to let him go as it will just be used to match Ashcroft
So you will pay up to keep him
Alternatively you look to trade say pick 6 and 7 (maybe some sweeteners) for a top 2 pick and get ahead of Ashcroft bid at 3
I don’t know if we would do that deal
Think we’d rather just take Smillie
