I'm not partitioning blame to anyone, just something I noticed
He’s not out the door yet…
I’m hearing (from afar mind you) that we have slightly increased our offer… not much but have spoken to the AFL about some ambassador money for young Izak. This is not over my friends

Ambassador money pretty much doesn't exist anymore.
AFL can do whatever they want. It seems Ben is on it according to several reports.

**** if we turn this around and retain Rankine it'd be an almighty coup. I'd lose my shit.
Not holding out much hope though.

Me either. Izak had offer on table for months. I bet he's just waiting for season to end.

Sorry all been away for a week. Have I missed anything? Rankine signed yet?
You came back in right time. Izak is just making his decision by playing game on PS5.
Not over until it's over but yes I would lose my sh** haha

Rankine to us leaves you holding $650k. As reported in today's Courier Mail, Franklins have just bought an apartment on the Gold Coast.
Looks likely you'll have a new spearhead for 2023

I think understandably why this one hurts so much is because multiple times throughout the year he spoke to the newspapers and media outlets about how much he loves living on the Gold Coast, loves the club, loves the lifestyle and loves his team mates. This is why it hurts as it was totally unexpected and we weren’t emotionally prepared for it compared to other years with Lynch, May, Martin etc we all knew they were gone throughout the year.
Unfortunately there are times when you get an offer too good to refuse, this is one of those times.
Will enjoy actually watching a game of footy tomorrow after this week haha.

Absolutely. He would know that. Anyone who feels bad will at the SUNS for not matching needs a self uppercut.
To be fair, if you didn't offer $400K for Atkins that money could have been used to retain Ranking and also Rucci has a history of inflating what the Crows offer other players in the past so I suspect it's actually lower than the $800K but either way $100K is neither here nor there.
