3rd rounder.. his worthWhat was the Daniher offer?
So Essendon get pick 7 for Daniher, GWS will likely get a top ten for Cameron, and we look like ending up with something in the 30s for Brown.
Remember when people were justifying the trade by saying "we'll only do it if we get the best deal for the club." Or "we need to make the gutsy call because he's got trade currency". How's that working out now?
How does Daniher at 700 trigger band 1?We just can't compare them. The picks are coming from the AFL, not the other clubs. Where you can compare them is Cameron is being rumoured at 1mil, Daniher at 700k... Brown at 500-550k. Not something North can be blamed for.

Yes. I completely agree. Have said the same several times.Top 10 picks (i.e non-finals teams) should be protected. Any band 1 compensation should come after those picks.
You just know, as soon as a Band 1 calibre player from North wants to leave through FA, the rules will have changed and we'll be screwed over again.
Has to be more at play than any of us are aware ofThere is nothing that made sense about the whole Brown thing, nobody, even the media could make any sense of it and how we approached it.

3 year deal. I can't see how it is especially after they said compensation isn't meant to match real compensation.How does Daniher at 700 trigger band 1?
We should have contracted Brown until he was eligible for free agency. Thanks Cam Joyces.We just can't compare them. The picks are coming from the AFL, not the other clubs.

The initial reports said the offer was 600 x 5. After the threat to match from Dodo, the Lions renegotiated and it looks like they upped it past 800-900k x 3.How does Daniher at 700 trigger band 1?

I agree to a point. But we are seeing the market offering significantly higher contracts to other key forwards, so that must say something about the general perception of his value.
Brisbane would have been better off going for Brown.. what idiots Or ..The initial reports said the offer was 600 x 5. After the threat to match from Dodo, the Lions renegotiated and it looks like they upped it past 800-900k x 3.
I get where you're coming from, and I want to have faith in the club, but I still think the whole Brown situation has been handled horrendously. We apparently valued him at 750 - 850 k depending on who you believe, Daniher has played 3 games in 3 years or whatever it is and he's worth 700k and a pick 7 compensation. We now have a 60 goal a season forward who wanted to sign with us allegedly going somewhere else for 550k a year and what will likely turn out to be a late 2nd rounder.We just can't compare them.

Immediately, club is a rabble (if you Accept what’s been written and sprayed across the net), AFL needs to cough up a priority pick for the AFL basket case. What’s the worse that can happen? AFL say no and give pick 2 to * for wasting their time.So at what point do we start knocking for a priority pick?
Ahem.. we dont want him..I get where you're coming from, and I want to have faith in the club, but I still think the whole Brown situation has been handled horrendously.

And they will renegotiate it back to 600 x 5 as soon as they can. And the AFL will sign off on it.The initial reports said the offer was 600 x 5. After the threat to match from Dodo, the Lions renegotiated and it looks like they upped it past 800-900k x 3.
Ok HS just posted the figures. So 830k per year
Essendon hit the free agency jackpot on Friday night, securing the No.7 overall pick for Joe Daniher after Brisbane offered a three-year deal with around $2.5 million of guaranteed money.
They can't. FA deals are stuck for the life of the contract. It's why Sydney is still stuck paying 1.3m to Buddy.And they will renegotiate it back to 600 x 5 as soon as they can. And the AFL will sign off on it.
