800kpa for JSOS. SOS trying to recruit his own kid on big bucks.
It’s like a sickness for SOS. Trying to poach spuds on big money out of his former employer.

I completely agree. That's why I still work at Red Rooster after decades - I'm sacrificing money to keep the team together... As I say to Dan when he askes when his next raise is, it's all about loyalty and not being selfish!I don’t think current players are all about the team. A small minority are, but I think most only have self interest at heart. Our three-peat squad all sacrificed money but this group I don’t think is about it. Only takes one, which appears to be Starcevich and now others will follow. Seems one premiership is enough for most players these days and if they don’t back it up the following year start thinking me me me.
I think the most surprising thing is that it is Starcevich ready to be the selfish one and likely doesn’t rate being part of a dynasty because he’ll obviously be destitute if he doesn’t leave.

would we take a punt on elijah hollands for a token pick?
can we fix him?
given the clubs hes been at you can't blame him for the issues hes facing.From being Carlton’d or the drugs?

hasnt really shown it at afl level but he looked so good as a junior. i think theres something there - i could see him auditioning for ah chee's spot on our list as a bargain pickup.
i guess my position is you can never have too much talent on a list, if we think hes manageable id like to think we would make enquiries. geelong kind of did it with stengle. i dont think hollands is a stengle level talent but sometimes all it takes is a kick up the ass and a change of scenery to see these guys flourish (it also helps if like stengle you just cover up the bad behaviour....)I just don’t know whether we would bother bringing in a project like that who could be a distraction, given the talent we have and have coming. And there’ll probably be a Melbourne club closer to his support networks who are interested.

It feels like they just delisted guys like Fantasia and Cincotta to bring in a bloke who is just as poor if not worse.
The blokes been done for cocaine at two clubs.i guess my position is you can never have too much talent on a list, if we think hes manageable id like to think we would make enquiries. geelong kind of did it with stengle. i dont think hollands is a stengle level talent but sometimes all it takes is a kick up the ass and a change of scenery to see these guys flourish (it also helps if like stengle you just cover up the bad behaviour....)
I'm with you. There's enough talented footballers about without bringing one in who has the potential to destabilise what seems to be an amazing playing group.The blokes been done for cocaine at two clubs.
That’s a hard NO from me.

So, the guy who played 2 games this year for the team that only won a single game? Oh, Carlton, honey...It feels like they just delisted guys like Fantasia and Cincotta to bring in a bloke who is just as poor if not worse.
Oh, I didn't realise it was local footy for the three-peat team which I was relating to back in the early 2000's.
Could've fooled me.
The difference is money is much bigger now to what it was back then, the importance and awareness around money is also much more relevant now to what it was back then. Even more so in Starce’s case with his history of head knocks.I was referencing dynasty teams sticking together and sacrificing 1-25% of ones salary for the greater good of success and in particular when someone posted how much would you put on another flag (I believe someone said $100-$200K) like the three-peat team did for sustained success.
The three-peat team put personal financial gain aside; why is this current team or generation of player any different?
Seriously, explain that to me how Starc is any different to that core group in three-peat teams that DID sacrifice personal financial gain (there were heaps of examples of players being offered way overs to leave Brisbane to join other clubs from Copeland, to Black, to Johnson, Brown and you could just about list all of them and none of them did) to ensure the group stuck fat together and none of them were selfish?
Saying Starc wouldn't be selfish by putting himself ahead of the team, unlike the players in the early naughties is pretty rich no?
Man I really enjoy your posting but I think this one misses.I don’t think current players are all about the team. A small minority are, but I think most only have self interest at heart.
