Wasn't King Carey earning around a mill a year in his last years at North?

Dusty is the best player to breeze through Punt Road in decades. He is worth every cent.

Just sayin'.
What is he worth TOT ? What's the max you would pay on average per year ?

I would match whatever offer is made.

It won't come down to anything ridiculous anyway. Just because there are reports of massive money being offered this doesn't mean the reports are accurate. So far there are no offers because it is against he rules to make them. The media are just speculating, making up numbers and reporting the speculation as fact.

Only madmen let players like this walk away for money. If an offer is made, match it. In all likelihood, he will sign beforehand anyway.
 
Carr waiting for all these bloody press conferences around retirements to finish so he can have his 3 1/2 min in the spotlight.

Pre St Kilda game would be nice, help off set N Riewoldt's last game.

agree. What are we saving up for?

Indeed, we have wasted plenty on Yarran, Hampson and numerous other duds in the last ten years. At least we would be spending it on a decent player.

PREs voice of reason as always . I think next time I'm going to buy a car or house or get a new tattoo I call you first to see if it's sensible ;D

Thanks TOT

Deledio was 24, the contract took him through to 29. Martin's 26... will he still be giving $1M+ value at 33?

$1mill a year seems big money now, what's the value in 7 years time. Maybe $700k in todays money?
 
Lynch or 2M Peter or Hipwood i did think the same Olden but it would also neccessitate a trade for these guys i think.

Is Lynch restricted yet?

What if we could land Tom Lynch?
Seems like pointless speculation. Lynch isnt out of contract or free agent. You may as well ask what if we could get Dangerfield or Fyfe.

We actually have one of the most valuable players in footy. Why anybody would even consider losing that advantage is completely beyond me.

trading/ pay negotiations is about getting more champions into your club.not less.

My pleasure. Just don't tattoo my name on your bum.

For a team good enough to win the flag. So you think we only need Dusty to sign and it's in the bag? Could you let me know when? Like this year or next, 2019?

I just need to know when to cash in the house so I can lay it all on the best odds at the time.

If GWS took Dusty, and we took Kelly, would we both get compensation picks?
Why not Tigersnake?

If we take Kelly as a free agent and GWS take Martin as a free agent, surely we both get compensation picks? Seems like a loop hole worth exploring?

I think they would cancel out.

Is Kelly a free agent? I didn't think he was. Just out of contract.
