Don't be negative!Reckon we switch off the radio and tv for the next two weeks. Nothing good will happen for the dogs this period
Free Agency Compo has always been a joke..I'm pretty sure Frawley was Pick 2 actually. Meanwhile Prime Buddy Franklin was Pick 19. Compensation is just a roll of the dice.It is isn't it? Really illuminating.
They have clubs they don't question, favourite clubs and others that they bash and undermine relentlessly.
According to the media, Scott is a genius, the Cats recruiting and admin are Gods and everything that club does is beyond reproach.
We have a lazy captive media.
On a side note, let's never forget that James Frawley because he was a free agent attracted Pick 3. Pick 3. The whole system is screwed.
Not good enoughNed McHenry worth a shot? I grew up playing footy with him, he was a mad Doggies supporter.
Still probably a slight overpay, but only slight, and not the disaster a lot try to make it out to be.With the Battle compo + Lombard/Ashcroft and potentially Kako bid our first this year would've been 15-16, Huge turn around of form late makes the Sanders trade look very good was very worried after that Port game but realistically now ends up being 13 + 23 (useless Croft bid anyway) + 15/16 for 6
Pretty much for us 13 + 15/16 even though in theory could've potentially traded the 23 for points or future picksStill probably a slight overpay, but only slight, and not the disaster a lot try to make it out to be.

Melbourne has had the equivalent of Bont and Libba trying to leave only to be held to their contracts so let’s not be too harsh.Based on trade period so far I think we should shut the club down.
But we missed out on Pleatring!!Melbourne has had the equivalent of Bont and Libba trying to leave only to be held to their contracts so let’s not be too harsh.

The fact a player has more freedom when they’re younger and out of contract than they do after they’ve paid their dues up toYep - the whole point being that if we were to "rescind" the lack of free agency rights on Smith (not possible under the current rules but operating in theory), we'd get more in compensation than if Geelong were trading for him, and it wouldn't be Geelong who pay the price (losing their draft pick), it would be the 16 other clubs (everyone goes back 1 draft spot, with us getting the compensation pick and Geelong getting their player).
Shows how it's a broken system.
