I wish I knew how the f*** we thought it was smart to contract him to a year before he was FA.

Saying that, the Melbourne deal is rumoured to be 5 at 500-550k.

The Corr deal, rumoured to be 5 at 500-550k.

Like for like, that puts our compo at around 27.

Saying that, I'll grant that Brown should command a higher wage as a FA. We're not far out of the ballpark though.
That is the bigger question, why wasnt his contract until he reached FA? .... Joyce you ****ing spud
 
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.
Thought they judged it by guaranteed $. My maths say the first offer is more $.
 
And they will renegotiate it back to 600 x 5 as soon as they can. And the AFL will sign off on it.

Corruption

It wont be that, your TPP amount is the greater of current or past contracts, it will just be a front loaded contract, they will have to back-end some players to compensate for it but the AFL have now allowed clubs to manipulate salaries to create band 1 compensation picks, compensation will be dead soon, AFL should have taken a harder stance with compensation.

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.

I reckon every single one of us is pissed off about some factor about this. All we can do is hope the club knows something we don't and hope they get the picks right.

There has only been one offer, you can't change it. They talked about that offer with Essendon and they said they would match it because it wouldn't 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.
Saad? And perhaps consider what Essendon was asking for last year when trying to do a trade with Sydney re Daniher.
 
In the same breath cal twomey says "one of the best forwards in the league" and "a pick in the region of 25 to 35 should get the trade done" in regards to Brown.

Lol

Whoever the footy gods are, you have shaped this beautifully to give us the Royal Roost. No amount of Vaseline is gonna make this tolerable 😢.

This whole scenario just typifies our year
You know what. ****en bring it on. It'll only make it sweeter when we rise to the top again.

I know Daniher has set a precedent but.... there are differences with * and the crouch situation. They did actually want him, so much so last year they rejected two first rders so so the AFL see this and realise that they have still lost even if they get one first rd as compo..... does this come into it at all..... crouch however ade tried to get rid of last season and then have tried again this.... he clearly isn't wanted. Isn't that what compensation should be.... compensating you for something you have lost but wanted... crouch is not wanted. Or am I thinking too logically here?

It is the same reason why Tarrant never got in the AA and how Goldy was usually rated lower than his output demanded, we don't get the recognition our players deserve, you watch how the perception changes for Brown and Higgins next year.
Watch how many more frees Brown gets.
 
Saad? And perhaps consider what Essendon was asking for last year when trying to do a trade with Sydney re Daniher.

Can't say much on Saad before we see it I guess. Daniher with Sydney was still contingent on him being an FA this year.

We really f***ed a mutt leaving Brown nowhere near free agency.
