With respect, how would you know what we are offering anyone?
It is highly likely that we have a number of players interested in North, but we can't get trades done since Black, Hansen, BMac and Fishy aren't exciting to other clubs and we don't (ever) have high draft picks.
Indeed, part of our strategy, which commenced before this year, has been to offer big money to players in development clubs, to cause a salary cap squeeze like we are now seeing. It has a flow on effect, too.
We were up to our eyeballs in Treloar last year, it was just the bells and whistles that Collingwood can add (e.g. girlfriend's media job) that pushed him that way, not the money.
