Isn't it 3 year standard contracts for draftees now, amd extensions on more money if they show anything. 3 years from now I'd hope they would be showing a bit and we are in the free agent market.Say we do take a draft haul and a rebuild all in one go both this year and next. How do we keep them at the club with contracts all ending around the same time?
Hopefully the AFL brings in the extension clauses for rookie contracts to incentivise loyalty

Might sound pessimistic but chances are not all of them make the cut eitherMaybe we dont keep them all. Its not going to be easy to play them all, maybe some of the ones that get less game time will get decent offers from other clubs and want to leave. We get draft picks for them and go again, kind of like GWS, you end up getting an endless factory of talent that way.
Not saying Baker isn't going, but Broad did the same FYI.Baker is gone mate. He’s even bought a place over in Perth. No chance he’s staying.
Yeah Bakes is an interesting one I’ve got no mail myself but I’ve heard from different people that are generally pretty good the two conflicting storiesJust to clarify, Grockadoc and my mail is Baker is leaving, Tigs is saying he's very confident he's staying and so is Cameron Hicks. So it's a real interesting one this decision. For the record, we are all hoping Tigs is correct.
sounds like a virus software

I said it too. A couple of months ago when all the noise said he was leaving. I’m still confident Baker is staying.
Like Bolton perhaps ,Media has been mostly wrong about tigers since 2017 ,absolutely untrue.
We need slippery mids, not thuking big bodied mids that many wanted.
How does everybody like our only 1 type of mid we have,big bodied.
CorrectMaybe we dont keep them all. Its not going to be easy to play them all, maybe some of the ones that get less game time will get decent offers from other clubs and want to leave.

his name is Blair Hartley, knows what he’s doingSay we do take a draft haul and a rebuild all in one go both this year and next. How do we keep them at the club with contracts all endings around the same time?
I think alot more people agree with this then you think.People might not like it , but I'll prefer Baker to leave along with Bolton and keep Rioli. Baker is replaceable and indecline his not worth $$$$$. Bolton is great for a team playing finals or challenging.Both are mot players you built a team around. With them leaving we can set up our future with picks.
in 3 years when rioli retires at 31-32 we will be crying about why we didnt take 2 x first rounders for himPeople might not like it , but I'll prefer Baker to leave along with Bolton and keep Rioli.

don't got me wrong..I'm with it.in 3 years when rioli retires at 31-32 we will be crying about why we didnt take 2 x first rounders for him
our players are cooked early due to high pressure dynasty gameplan and louie being the icing on the cake

it is a real issue and one of the reasons why taking 5 picks in the top 20 is risky.
I expect these picks to be smoothed over a couple of years to ensure TPP issues are minimised going forward
both junior and senior were born on the 1st septemberMRJ will be better than Dan
It will not just be wedgy. It will be a total flossing.What if he comes out and echoes broady sentiments and signs on , talkabout a reverse wedgie
lukosoius apparently wants 1 million a yearGC are trying to make him something he's not. He is a third tall who distributes beautifully and provides run or a tall wingman in my opinion. Talented player but I would be trying to play him as a key forward.
Plus they will probably want as a direct swap for Rioli and I'd prefer the picks.

he will end up a crow crows give suns next years first round pick
