Tend to agree. Even given where we're at, only room for one slow stopgap kpp, and kosi is it
Well. If Daniel to Suns trade gets done quickly and satisfactory, and it's true Shai is prepared to stay if we can't do a deal, that would put us in a very good position in negotiations.
Too many big trades potentially happening, waiting for the marbles to drop, posturing, I envisage a torturous and agonizing trade period with a couple of our deals going down to the wire.
Still 7 weeks until we know what our bounty will be.
Trade period : 7–16 October 2024
Stuff GC and poor form Dimma
Pay up fuktards
Going to take more than pick 6, will need another either 13 or 20 but I think it will be 6 and 20 at the end.

So Danny and Shai want out. Still no confirmation on Bakes and Fridge. Maybe they haven't had their exit interviews yet.
Anyway let's run with with the players with character like Broady who want to stick around and extract the maximum return
for those wanting out.

That’s all well and good. But be prepared to pay a *smile* premium.
I hope a lot of members email the club membership department to ensure any trading of DRioli and/ or Bolton is done to maximise the return to the club.
No more playing “Mr nice guy tickle my tummy and I’ll roll over”
Hardball! Whatever the media expectations are..double it.
12 months ago, I would've been upset by that but not so much now.
That said Dow needs to go before anyone.
Rioli wants out with trade for Suns number 6 in the draft. Suns have to joking to want that & if Tigers take that we are doomed. Ya do not give away star status guys who have ex amount of playing years in their legs for peanut draft picks. What worries me is it 2024 The Year Of The Woke.
afl Media on mass are going to look pretty stupid if baker and graham don’t go.
please add part B
I am interested to see who replaces these players
Salary cap.
Now the King Duz is gone (1.2m free)
Bolton, Rioli, Baker, Graham (2.8)
End of 25 sees Lynch and Prestia walk a lap and wave at the G. (1.5+800)
Over 6m in the cap.
Taranto & Hopper have 5 more years, Flossy a few. They get paid early. Balta gets a contract.
Say that uses up 2m.
What can we do?
What?
We've just drafted 4 kids in the top 10 and another 4 before pick 25.
We now have top talent. FOS, Lalor, Langford, Reid. Its a future midfield.
But theyre not ready for high contracts.
Lets supercharge that midfield.
Harley Reid.
8 years.
2m for the first 4 years.
1m for the second 4.
1m sign on bonus.
Not this year. After next year when we have pick 1 and 20 again.
2 more gun kids.
Then we trade for a 22yo Reid.
Swap 3 x f1 and 3 x f2.
Whatevs we dont need kids anymore. We finish 10th, 4th and 1st in those years, the start of the next dynasty

Not certain of the cap minimum now, was based on 95% for years but I think there was an adjustment made a couple of years ago where you can pay under the cap for a couple of years and bank the underpayment to allow a bit of extra future cap space to poach free agents n player trades with additional cap space in hand.
News report the other day said Bakes interview was happening today, no mention of Fridge, but he's a free agent so gets to do what he wants when he wants I guess. Sign with us or sign with Wet Coke n wait until the AFL stirs it's cauldron n scoops out some *smile* for RFC.
Yep. 2024 we finally Woke up n realised our wheels are old, skanky n worn out, in need of a major rebuild and to have any chance of competing again in the reasonable future, we have to sell a couple of fancy shiny accessories to buy a new motor, transmission n turbo.
