Certainty in what his limitations are pushes his value higher than a kid who hasn't even played 20 games and was recovering from an ACL in his first season?
Makes perfect sense.....
I mean you could say that about every player?
Like what player wouldn't benefit from joining a successful team.
Dow and LoB aren't the first top 10 picks that didn't pan out and won't be the last.
Weitering, McKay, JSOS, Curnow and to a lesser extent cunners found a way and have seen just...
Dow is 24 and has played 73 games. Has exposed form and his flaws are pretty clear at AFL level including a lack of versatility.
E Hollands is 21 coming off an ACL in his draft year and part of the drafts that were impacted by COVID. Has played 14 games and mostly for some unknown reason as a...
Loved E Hollands as a junior and fits a need for us as a half forward who can take a mark and has scoreboard impact.
The fact we got him for a future third really shows GCS has been given far too much and are just wasting talent at this point. But hey if we reap the rewards so be it.

Was there for the dark days. Thanks Plow.

So say it is 750k a year. Could argue on the open market he is worth close to 1m a season for the next 4 at least and possibly 500k or less in his 30s.
Could be a solid win over the next 4 years but questionable in the last 2?
A good deal on balance
This is an odd one, obviously good news.
But 6 years could be a noose around our neck for the last 2-3 years. Maybe it has triggers? Could also be on discounted $ due to term?
Good news.
Interesting the club and player agent both apparently didn't want to discuss until the bye and it was done quickly.
From the player perspective Harry gets to restricted free agent at the end of the contract and has some flexibility. I think its reasonable to suggest if in two years...
