Autopsy Leon Cameron's coaching performance

Remove this Banner Ad

Once again a club has extended a contract before success has been achieved.

Open cheque book, extended list and as many top 20 draft picks as you want.

Even Buckley would have them top 4. Hell. Even Roos would have them top 4.
Dogs signed up Beveridge about this time last year.

I am sure Clarko didn't have a four contract between 2005 and 2008 so even your club extended a contract before success had been achieved.

Were they re-signed during the year or at the end of the year?

GWS were making out that they needed to get him now before any other clubs nabbed him. So which other clubs would be interested?

Except the cap is there. So these stars are signing on for a reason.

Ive said before that GWS are fine if they lose 1 or 2 players a year. The problems come when 3 or 4 players decide to leave. And that is very much a risk - given how many guns there are who will all be able to get massive payrises elsewhere.

You make it sound like every club in the league will end up with at least one marquee ex-gws player on their list on a massively huge, inflated wage. And the longer it goes on the more crowded each club will be, pushing their own draftees Andrew long time servants of the club out in order to fit the humoungous wage all the gws players will be pulling in.

Not going to happen.

3 or 4 a year? What are you on, and where can I get some?

We've been supposedly facing a Mass Exodus since the first day we signed our first player.

Still waiting....

Waiting....

Six years I've been waiting.

Youve had the standard sized list and standard cap for 1 year. And we have no idea how much the AFL gifts you in Ambassador money.
 
He has taken a team from 16th in his first season, to 11th in 2015, to a kick away from a GF and now sits equal top.

GWS have the best list, the most talent, but are way short of being the best team.... Cameron is in charge of a potent force running like a ford escort!
 
Conveniently ignore the first bit.

What? That we have a standard sized list since the AFL changed the rules midway through last year to bring forward our list size reduction schedule?

And in other breaking news: water is wet and C is the third letter of the alphabet.

Yes. So 80% of your list already had contracts. So players leaving wasnt an issue. Now it is going to start.

Probably because the whole "ambassador programs are a way to gift the NSW clubs money" idea was one the Hawks board made up and has no basis in reality.

Not just NSW. Its all interstate.

Its probably to make up for Vicco players getting easy media money from all the footy shows.

But outside of Collingwood, that is 3rd parties. Not money which should be in the cap.
 
It was never going to be the cakewalk most expected for GWS. They have some great players but they've still got a cap and every year they've lost a player or two to the go home factor.

This is one case where the AFL got it right. They're a good side and I think Cameron is a good coach. They, like everyone else, will need a bit going right to win it.
