The subtle lynchpin of the team GOING NOWHERE.

That's f*cking random, but awesome haha

His dad is a pretty cool dude, loves to chat and is very friendly.

It's a tapatalk issue. THey haven't got around to resolving it yet.

But also, it picked up a completley random tweet in the reply

That tweet actually makes more sense than Kane to me

I mean if Young is ready to sign, you do the deal.

But I don't think they'd have gone as early if Andy wasn't sorted - too big of a risk to back yourself into a corner.

I don't want to go all Sophie's Choice here, but you'd go Young.

Young and Tracey are fast becoming my favourite players

Who is Tracey?

Same here. Young is our best player, I’ve said it all year. He is an out-and-out gun and I’m so bloody happy he’s on our team.

That’s too long for Brayshaw. We’ve signed up Young until he’s 32 and I’d be comfortable doing the same for Brayshaw.

Brayshaw is two years older than Young and Serong.

Don’t ruin it

 

[FreoBraddles]

Channel 10 saying Brayshaw and Moose will both be done in the new year.

Didn't see it, just got told by someone who was watching so don't know anything else.

Could be true. Could be putting people off so they don't expect the Christmas announcement - but not expecting it as a foregone conclusion.

Any chance of getting Gout Gout onto the list as an Academy pick.. would go pretty well on the wing

Who's Gout Gout?

 

[DocT]

Who's Gout Gout?

Run's the 200 faster than Bolt Bolt at the same age.

 

[DragoDelph]

Just remember. We had space in the cap for baker and/or Pickett.

That money for next season has to go somewhere.

Kossie if Melbourne release him

It means there's money available in 2025 to spread around existing contracts. Fronting Young, Brayshaw and Pearce an extra $400k moving money out of 2026, 2027 etc.

There is no guarantee we weren't going to backend Kozzy/Warner

Bolton likely would've filled a big chunk of the available 2025 pie


We can never know for sure though

Only every manager I've ever heard speak about contracts for transferring players has said that the players get paid up front.

I'd be very surprised if a contract is offered for Pickett/Warner where most money is later, or weighted to the back end.

A recent example is the $1.7 million for Ben McKay in the first year at Essendon.

For a counter example, there are a number of players who renegotiated with their existing club to move money back in their deal such as Treloar at the Pies, Bowes at Gold Coast. Young could have done this. Hopefully not with the same eventual outcome.

Would love to know what tax strategies they employ. $1.7m up front sounds great on paper but not when you’re giving a ridiculous chunk of that to Uncle Albo.

 

[purplerunsdeep2]

Smart call. When young loses a year of pace or too banged up, can easily move to half back again. That leg is a weapon

Tom Lynch was the other way around, only they had a number of stars due to retire in 3 or 4 years so they knew they would have spare salary cap then.

Ryan and Pearce are only players older than 28 taking up reasonable cash, so we can't afford to back end any contracts.

I think it really comes down to spot you are in the list build. If you have a young list, front load as much as possible.

If you are looking to extend a top 4 run for 2 or 3 years, then back end a contract can work very well.

From memory, maybe five plus years ago now, there was a decision that 20% of their income could be for "brand" as distinct from personal income - which can be held by a separate entity. Facilitating distribution strategies.

If there are rulings allowing them to spread the tax burden evenly across the length of the contract, flattening out the income years on paper similar to farm or otherwise seasonal/fluctuating industry, then front loading could be very handy for buying assets early.

Professionals have income averaging

So 1.7 one year and 500k the next gets averaged

It's a bit more technical obviously but yeah
