As if it will be determined by the result of one season.I've heard rumours that Patrick Crippsis getting pretty tired of missing out on competing in the finals every year and will go back home to WA should the Blues miss the 8 in 2021. We know Cripps will become a free agent next year so that obviously intensifies this rumour.PLAYERCARDSTART9Patrick Cripps

WC could get it done. But should they?Has nothing to do with how Carlton go next year, his girlfriend has a fairly severe mental issue that requires her to be back with family in WA. I believe the situation will be he would like to play in WA for her sake, but if a deal cant be made he'll stay. Freo are likely the only club that can accommodate a realistic trade and have the cap space available (dont be surprised if this was the real reason Hogan was pushed out of the club).
I felt the same about Lids, though that would be at the end of another long contract for Cripps to be comparable, and Cripps has carried Carlton in a way Lids never did at Richmond. If you guys rack up a few heartbreaking elimination final losses, it's on for sure!Would anyone blame him?
I think we're in a good position to make the finals next year, but things can fall apart and no one would begrudge Crippa chasing some success after playing in a cellar dweller team his entire career to date.
Think we'd probably match any FA contract offer however.
Freo would have more cap space imo and should have the better picks presuming they finish below us next year. Plus I think we're required to use our first rounder next draft period which would prevent us from using it in a trade, unless we trade in another first rounder. This is assuming of course that Carlton match any offer presented to him, which I believe they will now that GWS has opened the floodgates matching Geelong's Cameron bid.WC could get it done. But should they?
Sure, but how much cap space would WC need to get Cripps? How many picks would they need if he's a FA?Freo would have more cap space imo and should have the better picks presuming they finish below us next year.
Well, then it's up to Carlton to consider whether they match the offer, which would likely be determined by where they finish. If they have a bad year and the FA compo is a pick in the top 5, matching makes less sense.Plus I think we're required to use our first rounder next draft period which would prevent us from using it in a trade, unless we trade in another first rounder.
Relevance?This is assuming of course that Carlton match any offer presented to him, which I believe they will now that GWS has opened the floodgates matching Geelong's Cameron bid.
I'd say he probably is. Probably more.And frankly, is Cripps worth the 5 million over 6 years that it will take to move him?
How much would you want to be paying Cripps at 30, 31 and 32?I'd say he probably is. Probably more.
Gaff, McGovern and Fyfe are all on over 1m p.a. and I'd have him in the same class.
Wouldn't get him to move? That depends on whether he has other reasons for wanting to go/stay.I'd hazard a guess 5 mill over 6 wouldn't get it done.
Not sure what he was on in 2020, it was a strange year. I think any year where Jack MartinYou reckon Gaff is on 1 million per year? Not sure about that.
Yeah not sure that means 1 million per year over the whole deal.Not sure what he was on in 2020, it was a strange year. I think any year where Jack Martinis on 1.1m is a little odd, but this article from Feb has Gaff in that category.PLAYERCARDSTART21Jack Martin

MONEY MAKERS: Nine AFL players earning more than $1 million
The AFL has released figures confirming nine players earned more than a $1 million last season, with two superstars being paid in excess of $1.2 million.7news.com.au
Lol . If anything Cripps would go to Freo, he wants nothing to do with a drug fulled culture of bozo slackers like the Eagles.
Freo positioned their cap to be able to afford a Cripps who has been rumoured to be wanting to come back to WA if Carlton were uncompetitive
Puts them back at least another 4-5 years
In the situation he does actually decide he wants to go, you'd hope that after being pretty well looked after by the club and supporters, he'd do a Danger and say to be fair on Carlton that he wants to be traded and not taken as a free agent.
I'd say he probably is. Probably more.
Gaff, McGovern and Fyfe are all on over 1m p.a. and I'd have him in the same class.
