[tigs2010]

Hope you're right but think it'll be 5 & 9 for 2 & 25.

Can we do 6 & 10 or 11 & nothing back to trump it?

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

Have we got any announcement of the new fitness boss yet ?

Or are we waiting for end of uni semester to employ some Swinburne graduate for the job lol

 

[Tigers Time]

The incentive to trade him is they probably don't have 10 & 11 in future.

10 & 18 isn't unobtainable in future.

I would take 10 + 11 + 18 for Bolton + Baker. And would also be happy to pay wages to Bolton, even $500k/year. If they wanted 24 back I would be open to that also.

Need to look to the future and pay the price now IMO.

Rioli will hopefully get done for 6 + 23, maybe with some wages paid again.

With the exit of Pickett, Grimes, Dusty, Bolton, Baker, Graham and Rioli we will have significant cap space available to pay Bolton + Rioli wages to hopefully entice better draft returns. There's no point chasing a free agent at the moment with our list in it's current position.

When people say we will happily pay wages of leaving players, how long is that for? Because these guys are on long term deals, we can't be paying them for years in case it locks us out of chasing someone down the track (Harley Reid anyone?)

Shouldn't be paying beyond 2026. Probably wouldn't pay at all tbh. Be able to trade picks for space soon.

can we get this thread to 100 pages before any trades happen? i believe in us

 

[Tzatziki_Man]

From reading comments - I think we overestimate the value of paying a portion of any departing players salary.

From what I've seen this year. It's not really a factor.

Salary cap us increasing significantly in the coming years and I think longer term contracts can be attributed to this.

Reckon we can use our 95% cap to pay overs to the superstars that have stayed. Without it being public. Could add incentives into Broad, Nank, Vlastuin, Lynch, Taranto, Hopper, Balta, Prestia, Short and even McIntosh's contract to encourage financial incentive for better on field performance.

Prestia & Lynch could be - 100k bonus if he plays 20 games.

Vlastuin could be - 100k bonus if he finishes top 3 in B&F

Short could be - 100k if he wins Best & Fairest

Taranto could be 250k if he wins the Brownlow

Even for our youth, could give the motivation to someone like Gibcus

Gibcus 50k bonus to play 18 games.


The figures are all out of my ass, so don't get all worked up on them, but you know what I mean, we HAVE to pay 95% of our cap - I'd rather reward those that have stayed, use it as a means to drive performance, rather than give it to the opposition as a tool to relieve their salary cap space.

Just my two cents

Shemans sold their future with F1, would be silly to trade up now, they're going to need players over the next few years when they fall into the abyss......

Smart thing would be to take 5 & 9 to the draft.

Would LOL if Brisbane demand more for Sharp now

 

[Dr Tigris]

theyre finished

will be a top 4 pick

Which would be hilarious if it weren't the Blues doing well.

 

[Nostradumbass]

I don't know how much more I can take

Maybe. Depends if Taylor can spook Willy T the way he did Rosa.

I wonder if any ground was made over the weekend with Fremantle trying to entice Baker to their club? The more they pressure Baker to defect to them the more pressure it puts on WCE to get a deal done in our favour.....

I'd be disappointed if we didn't

 

[Dr Tigris]

The Bombers are gaining 1747 points from their trade with the Dees. Does that still make out ~800 point differential seem excessive, or good market value?

Seems about right in comparison. So over paying is the norm.

 

[Finn9]

I want something good West Coast...

 

[Boxo004]
