Rumour Bluemour Discussion XXXIX

[JJBagger]

Yes because of the cba.

Stephen Silvagni - is that you?

What happened to Sholl after round 5???

EJ has pretty much no support network in Adelaide

Familiy have all moved on

Cant see any trade for him happening tbh

I suspect we may pay him out

 

[GoBlues!]

Dean cox commenting on the hypotheticals of trades and looking for the best players for their club...

Honestly, if Charlie has asked for an out, let's let him go while he has value. Why have someone there who is earning big bucks and who doesn't want to be there? Let him go.

**** the swans, we’ll just do a Papley on them…

I took an extract of an article when the Swans denied Papley’s request to be traded to Carlton in 2019 and ran it through my own personal AI program and got:

Papley Curnow, contracted until 2028 2029, requested a move to the Blues in the 2019 2025 trade period but the Swans Blues held him to his contract — told the Swans to GAGF and enjoyed the smallforward’s growth into a three-time premiership player, club leading goalkicker and 2021 All-Australian.

Really reallllyyyyyy hope Wilkie asks out and goes to the dogs!!!

 

[TheBlueCampaigner]

The Dogs have apparently offered Wilkie $4.5m over 4 years. Good luck with that SOS! That would make JSOS earn his money if there’s not a no. 1 defender to hide behind.

Waiting for SOS to slip down $9M by 7, and then tell the others they're on bread and water for a while.

What happened to Sholl after round 5???

Rd 5? More like rd 2. Only played well in the first 2 rds, then 3 or 4 very average games and was banished.

He's not very good. He's a decent kick but he wouldn't really add anything more than what Boyd does, for example. He would make no difference for us, Acres is much better despite worse skill. He is a good structural wing and good mark overhead who helps in defence. Scholl gets lost in transition, doesn't help defensively and is non-existed as a marking threat. His good kicking is an attribute every club wants in theory, but nothing else about his game warrants selection.

woudl be 6.5% per year

6.5 * 5 = 32.5

 

[ctwenty1]

7.4

6.5 * 5 = 32.5

you forgetting compounding

1.065^5 = 1.37

 

[ctwenty1]

Gee, a lot of $1m per year players about....

Wilkie well and truly deserves 1mill +

 

[teagueyubeauty]

Nek minit, he signs an extension at Moorabbin for 4.5 gazillion dollars

 

[ctwenty1]

Wilkie well and truly deserves 1mill +

I guess Im just observing that $1m pa is becoming common and not reserved for the select few

 

[Dramoth]

you forgetting compounding

1.065^5 = 1.37

Regardless. There is only 2 years left on the current CBA. We can't add the 3 years that have already run on the CBA to the cost of the salary we offered him to make it to 850k.

 

[Dramoth]

Compounding: 1.065^5 =1.37

We're in the third year of the current CBA. The new CBA isn't due until 2027.

Im not arguing about the veracity of the need to, or not, of escalating salaries and over how many years

just correcting improper mathematics

I should not attempt to do math while my head feels like it's full of cotton wool from the painkillers I'm on. Strangely, I only just noticed that after I read your response and replied to it.

 

[JoeyPBLUES]

Welp - that'll give them band 1 won't it?

 

[Big Delut]

Welp - that'll give them band 1 won't it?

Wilkie is contracted so it's just a trade were he to leave.
