For sure. But we won’t RELY on him as much if the ball isn’t getting back there.
How many players of Gov's profile and for that matter, Gaff's, have sought to leave clubs via free agency? Dangerfield is the obvious case and a deal was done. I can't think of any others. Carlisle might be another but he was nearly a fringe player when he left and not getting on with the club/coach.
If either of them, or worst case scenario, both, choose to leave, I think we should match or threaten to match the bids so at least we get some sort of adequate compensation. A pick in the teens doesn't cut it for AA players at their peak which the club has developed from their youth. We absolutely have to get something back for them as a good business decision. Heck, Ross Lyon got pick 2 for Lachie Weller.

There was a guy named Franklin in 2013. Others who've gotten first round or end of first round compo are Goddard, Frawley, Rockliff and Motlop.
Carlisle was a trade.
Goddard was 30 ish?, and St Kilda were offloading a lot of their good players for some strange reason. Franklin is the obvious example but something was going on behind the scene there. All the other players you've named are second tier lesser lights.

Opposite, if the midfield does it's job you rely on players down the line who read the play and can mark more (and move it on quickly and effectively). The turnovers don't come in the midfield, the turnovers come down the field from the forced mistakes caused by the midfield.
If you have a weak midfield you rely on players down the line who can contain opposition.
McGovern complements good midfields, Mackenzie compliments bad midfields.

Goddard was 27, one year older than Gaff will be in this free agency period.
So you’re saying our reliance on McGovern increases as the number of opposition i50s decreases...
What happens if Gov and Gaff both leave us for huge contracts and we have no free agents coming in? Two first round picks after our nominal first round pick?
The following is very vague - we might end up getting a very weird result from this so called formula especially if they both went for deals similar to those reported in the media.
A club that has a net loss of players transferring to/from other clubs as free agents in one transfer period is entitled to compensation via National Draft picks allocated by the AFL.
The compensation formula produces a points rating for players based on:
1. The new contract of the free agent;
2. The age of the free agent.
Draft picks are allocated to clubs based on the net total points for free agents lost and gained during the transfer period.
Draft picks will be allocated to one of five places:
• 1st round
• end of 1st round
• 2nd round
• end of 2nd round
• 3rd round
In applying the formula, an expert committee reviews the formula outcomes. The committee has the power to recommend alternative outcomes to GM – Football Operations where the formula produces a materially anomalous result.

Okay, so Goddard. But as I said St Kilda were cleaning out players. One, or two, or even three players proves my point, there have not been many high profile players still wanted by their club who have moved.
We have extended Jamie Cripps contract for a further 2 more years.
Also Jake Waterman extension is official.

Very happy in the faith in Waterman!
Cripps looks like someone knocked on his door at 7am on Saturday morning after he'd had a big night out and wants to talk about Jesus.
Wait a second....FLETCH?!

You can probably ask the same of people that don't understand how restricted free agency works
The campaigner is 2 years older than me but legit looks like he went to school with my old man.
