The clear loophole in AFL’s free agency compo — and how two clubs exploited it
The clear loophole in AFL’s free agency compo — and how two clubs exploited itwww.foxsports.com.au
I agree that the compo for free agents is out of control again. Surely it has to be reviewed again .
Either no compo or end of first round for band 1 and so on
The problem is the pick is linked with ladder position and in my opinion so it skews the compensation depending on how good or bad you are. Most free agents are not super stars. Most are the next level down that get paid overs to change clubs. The biggest free agent names have been Higgins / Lynch / Daniher in the last 10 years. The last two where the real stars.I think it’s fine, for the most part. First round picks are overrated. Real superstars are worth 2-3 of them. The main thing it is missing is a “two first rounders with change going back” band for the actual stars.
Of course, you could just get rid of compensation picks altogether. It would mean fewer players move via free agency, and in theory clubs would then be more likely to match the bid and facilitate a trade if the player is actually worth a pick, or else let them go for nothing, which a late round pick is nothing anyway these days.
It is based on ladder position, but that’s the point. Its a built in equalisation measure to compensate clubs who theoretically feel the loss more than a finalist or premier.The problem is the pick is linked with ladder position and in my opinion so it skews the compensation depending on how good or bad you are.

End of first round for band 1 and so on is enough based on ladder position. At least then the compo is close to even.
Grading the 49 AFL free agents who have moved clubs in the last 10 years
We've gone through the 49 players who have moved via free agency in the last decade and given them a grade.www.sen.com.au
And that is where it is wrong in my view as there can be too much variation.It is based on ladder position, but that’s the point. Its a built in equalisation measure to compensate clubs who theoretically feel the loss more than a finalist or premier.
Those other sides didn't lose a 25 year old KPD worth 800k p.a. on a 6 year contract, I suppose.And that is where it is wrong in my view as there can be too much variation.
North got priority picks. They did not Ned a pick for McKay that early.
On top of that it is a disadvantage to the other sides that are near the bottom.
Under watertight guidelines for restricted free agents, the yearly salary of Franklin must remain the same for the term of his current arrangement.
It means even if the gun forward extends his contract into 2023, the AFL will not allow his 2022 arrangement to be ‘smoothed’ as clubs do for non-restricted free agents.
If reports were correct when Sydney lured Franklin north, he is being paid $1.5 million this year and will rake in $900,000 the following season to complete a heavily back-ended deal.
The Swans would like to shift this money but are not permitted to do so,foxfooty.com.au confirmed on Tuesday with the AFL.
This is the same for all restricted free agents so that bidders don‘t outprice clubs and then immediately restructure contracts once they have won the signature of players.
