if deal is done why offer him more? he just go to the new team with the agreed terms since is done.
Perhaps about compoLooks like you could be wrong
Surely Battle cant go back to the Hawks and say moreeeeeeeeeeeeee please
It would be take St Kildas deal or leave

So you actually have no idea.Perhaps about compo
Here he isSo you actually have no idea.
So 3 defenders on A grader salary, I can't see any team investing that much in defense. At most you will have is 2 like Melbourne did with Lever and May.Barrass is meant to be on $750k a year at the eagles so you would expect a $200k increase for him = $950k
Cannot see the Hawks paying Battle the same cash

Sicily is more like Battle, Barass is a different KPD to both.Hawks should just be getting Battle so they can save a first round draft pick.
Pretty much the same player and cash.
Sicily is more like Battle, Barass is a different KPD to both.
How is he different ?Sicily is more like Battle, Barass is a different KPD to both.
Barrass is 197cm compared to Battle at 193cm.How is he different ?
I dont see Barrass as a KPD that takes on the gorilla fowards he is more intercepting tall than a lockdown KPD
Battle is only 193cm and not the player that takes on a Tom Lynch Sam darcy or Ben King
With TB coming Battle really doesnt make alot of sense now and $3 mil for 3 defenders is alot of cap space to lose
Yes but Barrass is a terrible 1 on 1 defender against the big KPFBarrass is 197cm compared to Battle at 193cm.

You will change you tune if it happens to you.It's obvious there should be no compo picks for losing a player to free agency. The compensation is the massive space in your salary cap. Getting a pick as well just punishes every other club.
That’s literally his managers job.Surely Battle cant go back to the Hawks and say moreeeeeeeeeeeeee please

Why are you talking about extra length? it’s an odd use of the word. He’s not auditioning for an adult movie.I like both Battle and Barrass as individuals. Think they would both be good additions certainly for my club or any club. I do have a slight concern with why the need for both. We've played really well with a smaller backline this year. It has rarely hurt us, and has helped with creating run and overlap and enhanced our ball movement. Adding two talls (assuming they replace Frost, poor him, he has been really good for 2 straight years) to the mix of Sicily, Weddle and Scrimshaw does alter their set-up back there quite a bit. Perhaps it allows them to get really creative with Weddle. I'm not absolutely convinced that going taller works or makes them better.
If I had to choose in a vacuum, I'd prefer Barrass. His extra length is something that Hawthorn could use to cover all the 200cm+ forwards running around nowadays. Battle is a little undersized, and we have plenty of undersized key backs already. In saying that, Battle has performed really well and his lack of height doesn't seem to hurt him often. The fact that he is an UFA also makes him extremely attractive.
Not odd if you follow sports other than football.Why are you talking about extra length? it’s an odd use of the word. He’s not auditioning for an adult movie.
