Roast Long term contracts gone bad

[RonnieRaven]

Jye Amiss. So not a lot.

Amiss has kicked more goals than McKay the last 3 years
His 5 years younger on half the wage
I’d say he would of been pretty handy
Especially now heading in to another rebuild
How long is Harry’s contract?

Amiss is Schache 2.0 and gets half his goals from cheap gimmes out the back. I'd take McKay any day even if he was dealing with the yips. Provides far more around the ground.

McKay averages more goals over the past 3 years.

McKay averages more goals over the past 3 years.

And Fyfe averaged more Brownlow votes than most but it means shit if your not on the park

Well you just got beat by schache
You guys are really ****ing shit
He kicked triple the goals on half the wage.

I think Max Kings deal is fine. Saints don’t have a shortage of cap space and he’s talented when fit.

Clayton Oliver’s contract will be the clubhouse leader by daylight for a long long time.

You're assuming Max King doesn't have a big problem with his knee....

 

[WillHayward]

LDU. Bad kicking, bad football.

He doesn't even try . Just jogs around..no pressure. No effort..doesn't care.

Not in the last 3 years he hasnt

 

[RonnieRaven]

Not in the last 3 years he hasnt

No now his a corpse with a kit on
But we certainly not pinning our hopes of being a good team on him

Not sure how Acres' 3 year contract can be considered long or bad, has had a rough year with injuries.

 

[kreuze_missile]

Tom DeKoning, St Kilda.

Worst contract in the business and it hasn't even been signed.

 

[WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot]

Don't agree on Kelly. They're a bottom side so need to fill the salary floor somehow.


3rd/4th string providing 3rd/4th string mid performances signed to 2030... There's the answer.
Stars get 5+ years. Not your soldier types.

Jai Newcombe just signed a 6 year deal. Hawks must see something in him I've never seen.

 

[Ambrosia]

Parish is Essendon's worst but the numbers are inconsequential at the moment as our list is just so far away from actually requiring the 95% of the cap that the rules make teams spend. I can see us looking to take on some of the "bad" contracts from other teams just to reach the cap floor.

 

[Daka]

Balta is an awful contract, and I said it over on Richmond's board when it was signed.

I never rated him that highly, think he has regressed dramtically & that was before this season.
I remember in 2020 when he was young premiership player, thought he was better player back than compared to now, stat wise no but he did his job better imo.

Ridley’s is arguably even worse but agree in that it’s pretty inconsequential for now.

3rd best midfielder at best in a strong midfield.

Probably better off being 4th or 5th best.

Jack Viney level.

Tom DeKoning, St Kilda.

Worst contract in the business and it hasn't even been signed.

Remember when they gave an absolutely cooked Dan Hannebery an $800k/pa 5 year deal to leave Sydney who were like 'ok bye!' and took a token pick upgrade trade to send him on his way - at the time a 27 year old, 3 Time All Australian.

Dan never got rolling at the Saints, which every man and his dog could have told you before he signed that deal - luckily it was a 4 years guaranteed with a trigger for the 5th (which he didn't reach, obviously) but he ended up playing 18 games over 4 years at the Saints - a run of 5, 8, 2 and 3 games - working out $178,000 per game.

That was the gold standard of terrible contracts (before we got into this 6 year+ craziness).

It never got the love it deserved because everyone forgot he existed by the end.

You are not in a position to be mocking key forwards given your commentary on Harry McKay over the years.

Harry McKay = athletic body, .... very limited footy IQ.

His twin aint much better.

 

[Wojcinski]

Taranto & Hopper on $1m P.A each for 7 years is pretty bad.

Weren't you the pine cone saying McKay was a spud last year when he was very clearly one of the best performing KPFs in the comp before missing the end of the season?

 

[WillHayward]

Jai Newcombe just signed a 6 year deal. Hawks must see something in him I've never seen.

Yeah I was thinking the same....
Good nuggety player but miles off being a star and very limited upside. Maybe Adam Treloar if he's really lucky.

Not sure I'd be flexing about McKay?

Id be

Yeah but it doesn't worry me so much given Richmond are rebuilding.
They have to pay someone under the rules so these two blokes just exploited the rules for their own advantage.
Not sure it's hurting the Tigers.
