Past #8: Daniel Wells - joins Collingwood as a FA - North get pick #32 as compensation

[GarnerSmash]

Yes I agree with that. I also think it is a big part of the reason the veterans (not counting Spud) were moved on as statistics themselves don't tell the whole story going the other way.

Oh they certainly don't. We were fried on the rebound in the back end of the year and stagnant going forward because we had little run. An area in which we have excelled in the last two years was scoring efficiency per inside 50 and defensive prowess in stopping scores once inside 50 had been conceeded. Our scoring efficiency was over 40% on three occasions in the last 11 games which is very low compared to last year. We conceded a score over 40% of inside 50's in 8 of the last 10 games, which is terrible compared to last year. This translates to shit movement with the ball and little defensive pressure without the ball.

He's a gun when he's on, the problem is he's off more often than not and that will likely get worse with age.

Certainly a risk but we've made a fair few list changes as is, can't imagine we aren't looking at some options that are ready to go.

I don't know the UFA/RFA bylaws, always assumed based on the danger deal that teams could choose whether to trade or use FA based on expected return.

Delaney would have netted us pick 29,000 as a DFA, but because Saints were willing to give us pick 790, we took 790.

Shows you I should probably read up on this shit rather than wasting your mother ****ing time.

in fact its about 81,500 better, and that's assuming he actually gets the full 550k which many assume includes match payments. Plus the "time value" of potential onfield success.

Are people assuming that? I pointed out how you could include match payments and ASAs to make up a number if you wanted to be tricky.

Opposition posters are more than welcome here provided they follow the rules. On this occasion no rules have been broken and to be completely honest, it's the off-season, so we tend to take a little bit more of a relaxed view to keeping an eye on the board during this period.

The poster the original "hurtful" meme was aimed at had no issue with it, so as far as I can see, it's play on. Please be nice to each other. We absolutely do not like banning North posters when they post on the North board, and would prefer to keep it that way. If there are posters on this board who have issues with each other I heartily urge you to discuss them via private message. Please.

F***ing hippy

400 over 3 years is quite a bit better than 2 at 550 in after tax dollars assuming your earning ability is bugger all if not playing footy.

But what if he salary sacrificed the extra $150k?

No, don't do that, I do not want 51 year old men PMing me.

How do you get that number? I would say that given both amounts are in the top marginal tax bracket, his net benefit is about $53k ($1.2m - $1.1m less tax at 47%).

Its fact:
If your free agents havent signed by the end of the regular h&a season, theyre as good as gone!!

Not always true Travis cloke signed his deal with us after the season ended, although I wish he hadn't lol

 

[Flawed Genius]

F***ing hippy

Peace be unto you

Have a wild guess

Never heard of him until 2 seconds ago.

Dustin Martin as well IIRC but yeah they are the exceptions. Hindsight is 20/20 but how did no one want Dusty in 2013 yet blokes like Bennel and Dixon were in high demand a couple of seasons later smh.
