I'm leading the bid I want, it just isn't updated - competing coaches or club coach can't match a bid that isn't updated. Or if the coach does match, he/she may think it isn't as high as it actually is.

Well if they search the name first then they'll know. Isn't hard at all. It's amazing that Russian has enough time to do as much as he does tbh. Don't think anyone could warrant asking for more.

I agree and Russian is doing a fantastic job. I guess I'm just thinking in regards to sante in particular having to match bids that may be significantly differed to that of the OP. Just don't want a situation where someone might be "that's the bid? I'd match the bid in the OP but not the significantly larger one" after the bidding has finished thinking they had only matched the player for the lower amount, that's all.

Best way to avoid this would be to quote the bid you are matching, then as you continue through the thread and find others, do the same until you can match no more

This is ridiculous, 4 years? Wasn't there discussion about this sort of stuff being prevented?
Risky no doubt. But he's only just turned 31. Rucks generally can play till mid 30's (King, Gardiner etc.). Definetely wouldn't go for five years, but four is conceivably possible.
 
Would be more than happy to go three years, but if it's matched then I'm finished so I obviously have to raise the bar somehow, and I could imagine Coxy playing till 35. A lot worse rucks have made it that far. Hell, he's in his peak at the moment.
 
So in four years if Coxy is still playing I'm free to bump this moment yes? As I said, I have two choices.

Go the three years - It's matched and I'm finished, missing out on what could be the difference between a premiership or not.

The only logical option is to go for the four years. Would I prefer three? Yes of course. But it's not like you wouldn't have matched the three years.
