Well, that would mean we (the crows, because I’m a crows fan) are offering more than 900k a year? Surely not. Even so, Luko’s preference is Port. But money might be the deciding factor in the end. We shall see.

Interesting times
One minute, Luko apparently not worth anything as he has almost 2m owing
But
Next minute, Luko to cash in with 5 years at 900k
Before you reply let me guess, the media speculation on sentence 1 is correct but the speculation from the same media on the second isn’t

Port will want to use 11 in this years draft - they may offer F1 though
Having said that - if we have offered $900k - then perhaps we will use our F1 in which case we would be a lock

Is this truth?
Not if they want GCS to cover the $2M for 2 years, they won't be able to outbid us on monetary so can only offer GCS a better pick to get Lukosius on similar money.
Apparently. But does that mean he gets there? Seems like we are offering more cash and show a little more desperation. Which is deplorable when you consider he isn’t a need and can’t even make GC starting team
But who is saying he is still worth anything if the club is absorbing $2M for the next 2 years???? If the rumour of F1 for Lukosius and pick 20 is true then that's a good deal for GCS.Interesting times

Both clubs are offering the same money expect an extra year from us.

Apparently according to whom?
Ok well thb that actually makes sense then given Marshall’s injury history and Dixon being cooked as fried chicken we are desperate
We will have Houston cap to spend so we can afford that
For the Camry Crows to spend that didn’t make sense at all given our needs are the opposite of yours
What is this story that Luko would not fit Crows?
Obviously RT and Fogarty are top forwards. Although RT could be a good ruck too, no? I hate watching close to useless ROB.
But as Walker goes, geez, he is close to the end. IMO, he made a mistake by not retiring.
Luko could play as a third tall but more predominantly high half forward, wing, delivering inside 50. That's a role he played late 2023. I suggest you to re-watch the games. He was very good in that role and that way his best traits are utilised. Not many players can read the game like him and deliver the ball the way he does. Wish Suns players did not ignore him free in great positions.
BTW, 900K under new TPP is like 700K in previous years. Clubs got extra 3.2M over 2024-2026.

Rankine's contract extension he signed this year is reported to increase to $825K from $700-750K using the Rich list information that the AFL disclose, there's no way I would be paying Lukosius more. It's just media BS like the supposed $900K we offered Rankine, I trust ITK posters than the media about these stuff.
So you talk about media BS and at the same time cite media Rich list BS. Go figure. Believe whatever you want. Use whatever you want to promote your narative.
All I would like to know, is Luko is leaving or not. Conditions, I could not care less. But that's just me.
Isn't the Rich list are based on players earning released by the AFL (they don't name the players but group them in earning brackets).
No, it's Herald journos guesses (Ralph is one of them). Several players managers, players mentioned some are grossly inaccurate. Yes, AFL release some info like number of players in certain salary brackets.

As per the last post, If you are going to pay 900k pa for another 3 years out to 2029 you are not absorbing anything, that’s his going rate and what you need to pay to stop him going to Port, all chips on the table including your F1
Not really, a few ITK poster said we are taking pick 4 to the draft for a midfielder.

Huh? I said your F1
You said "all chips on the table including your F1" so I really pick 4 isn't.

Pick 4 was never in the picture as it wasn’t realistic, you should try it sometime
EDIT: actually I think you’re right ABAB if you’re going to pay him $900,000 per annum for 5 years perhaps pick 4 should be on the table, Luko and pick 13 for pick 4. Done deal let’s move on now that we have agreement

Maybe say "nearly all chips on the table including your F1" next time.
