    Oppo Camp Non-Eagles Discussion 2025 Part 2

    That might get it down to earning more than 93% of the population... So they're doing pretty well at that.

    Yeah. If it's Collingwood v Geelong in the GF, well my front lawn needs weeding.

    Oppo Camp Non-Eagles Discussion 2025 Part 2

    If you're on $2K a day, and work 44 weeks of the year (which is the same as a full time employee after annual leave and public holidays), and we'll knock off a week for sick leave, so 43. That's 43*5*2000 = $430000 (fwiw, income tax on that is 39.1%, any additional costs are also tax...

    At 34 he'd be a bit young for Collingwood you'd think.

    It's always been extremely hard to get players to move to Perth (other than ex-WA boys). If there was any justice, that difficulty would be taken into account in calculating salary caps and list sizes. Players realise they're likely to have slightly shorter careers with way more travel in...

    Opinion Should the team ask for a Priority Pick 2025 edition.

    Yes, but the AFL decide the banding using a magic eight ball, so you never know what might pop out the end.

    Opinion Should the team ask for a Priority Pick 2025 edition.

    Nine out, but two of those spots go to McCarthy and Newton. So seven spots to fill Though I'd think there's still probably some chance that Ryan doesn't end up leaving - contracted players asking to move and it not getting done is not new. I'd rate it about 15% chance that he's still an Eagle...

    While Essendon are imploding, I think this needs to be charted (should probably read number of other AFL teams not to have won a final....)

    One thing though, has the Hawks coughed up their pick last year, we'd have sent that straight on for Baker. Not our R2 pick. And looking at this year, that wouldn't have been unreasonable at all. Not sure we'd have got anything more than just 14 from the Hawks either - the F2+F3 were...

    Yeah, sometimes even good players can't get games if they're behind very good players in the pecking order. I remember my Dad telling me about his run with East Perth in the mid '60s - he was in the Ressies and always close to League quality*, but the problem was that the player he had to push...

    Might be a bit harsh on the Pies, the whole club would have PTSD if they saw them. Make Vardy the driver, and it would be all over. (Hang a banner saying "no, he wasn't held" over the side of the car as well - though to be fair, that would work on us over 2005 as well)

    If they don't play in Launceston, they will get zero support from the northern half of the state. Tasmania is like taking north of the river vs south and ramping it up by a dozen magnitudes. A Hobart only team will not be supported in Cascade country. A Tasmanian team can't run without the...
