Well over 500k that's for sureYeah, and wasn't it 600k over 7?
Do we know for sure that $500k is the benchmark for a category one compensatory pick?Well over 500k that's for sure
Do we know for sure that $500k is the benchmark for a category one compensatory pick?
It's the total value of the contract from what I gather. So because of the length and the $ it should put us over. Anything over 4 years and 600k or 5 years and 500k is good enough for tier 1. I'll look for the article but it might take a while.Do we know for sure that $500k is the benchmark for a category one compensatory pick?
For corroborating information:For 5 years, I don't see how it could be anything else.
Although the number of million dollar men dropped in 2013, 63 players earned more than $500,000, up from 51 in 2012 and 40 in 2011.
Taken from here.The average AFL salary in 2013 was $265,179, up from $251,559 in 2012.
For corroborating information:
Taken from here.
So, in theory, if anyone of those 63 players were traded under FA, they would result in a band one compo pick.
I think contract length would be taken into account specifically for averaging the salary to prevent over or under loading the first year to manipulate the system.
Yes, but that's a decision for Buddy, not for the AFL.I think they take into account the entire value on the contract.
Look at Buddy. Swans beat GWS with $10m over 9 years, approx. $1.1m per year. GWS reported offer was $1.5m per year for 5 years, approx. $7.5m in total
Yes, but that's a decision for Buddy, not for the AFL.
The AFL is only looking at the final contract that Buddy accepts for deciding the compo pick.
Correct, and my point still stands.GWS pulled out because of the size of the total contract. When they pulled out it wasn't known that the Swans deal had been in the works for 10 months
Nice.Or should that be LOLdership group.
Let's be honest
Richmond built there revival around 5 core players
Rance , deledio, Martin, cotchin and riewoldt
So we have
McDonald , jones , Tyson , trengove and hogan
Rance is a gun 1 on 1 defender with questionable disposal
McDonald isn't strong enough to be as effective as rance but he is a decent young gun
The real difference of the midfields is not the disposal count , it's the ability to play forward or back as the tigers mids can
Martin and deledio and cotch hit the scoreboard and we will need ours to do the same
Jeremy Howe is probably closer to riewoldt but the point is they have a good key forward who can kick important goals
We're also younger. Richmond have players like Connors, Jackson, King, Newman, etc all over the ground who take the heat off their gun players to an extent and allowed them to develop, and then brought in even more big bodies in Houli, Grigg, and so on.Unfortunately, our top five is way inferior to most team's top five (and our middle five is worse than most, and our bottom five are too ... you get the picture):
Rance > McDonald
Deledio = Jones
Martin > Tyson (for now)
Cotchin > Trengove
Riewoldt > Hogan

Houli rivals Harry O for most useless size in the comp. (Dawes get a reprieve for his tackling)

If this is how it is, then we're stuffed.Let's be honest
