Past 3. Marc Murphy

[thylacine60]

Great news. Class bloke and quality player. Looking forward to seeing him playing off hbf, wing and hff for the next five years.

Also, as a 10 year veteran, only half his wage goes on our salary cap. Is that correct?

don't think it's half any longer - 100k?

Looking to forward to seeing him on a wing/flank.

Hardly any continuity this year and returns with 28 touches and a goal. Guy is all class.

Yeah too true. It’s almost like we traded him in mid season to complement our list. Stay fit and hungry murph.

No.
Not sure how the veterans list works now, if it still exists. It was half years ago but it was changed to not include a portion of it, I think around $112,000, in the salary cap.
Not sure if it has been scrapped all together.

ha - a somewhat disparity in incomes right there.............

Don't worry - Wayne Swan will sort it out.....

Hopefully he can stay fit for the rest of the year and have a good preseason and kill it between the arcs linking up in 2019 and onwards.

The veterans list was scrapped after the 2016 season.

[BluStreak]

clearly mentions both Cripps and Doc are going to be great leaders so we know who the favourites are within the club.

 

[Prem17]

you didn't get the candid shots of me across the moto guzzi?

Ummm, how do I say this without hurting your feelings, Thy?
No thanks!

 

[koutamarto]

Love reading all the positive comments from his early years because he was a kid. It’s funny how once a player is considered and elder statesmen our expectations change. Even though they are the same player. These days he can’t even miss a target by 30cms after nailing a forward on the tit 3 kicks in a row without people carrying on saying he is weak or not a good leader etc. I wonder how long until we start changing our perspective of someone like crippa and turning on him for giving too many frees away or trying to do too much and turning it over.

If you put a zero next to his draft position, I bet everyone would be super pleased with how he's tracking.

re-sending...........hold please......

 

[The Flying Doormat]

In my mind, Murphy's continued commitment speaks volumes for his character. Here's hoping a miracle comes his (and Simmo's )way and they can hold the premiership cup up high.

Anyone heard anything further from Rhys Palmer in relation to the culture at our club? It was no surprise to see him stir the pot a couple of weeks ago, but disappointing that some Carlton supporters wanted him to be right.

Just need confirmation of Cripps' signature now (which would seem to be not too far away) & the club will have done a very good job in tying up the core of our next premiership side.

Rhys was a couple of bags deep into a bender when he wrote that. I wouldn't take any notice of the poor sod. Sad really.

Thought Lebron's news would be the biggest basketball story of the day but what I just witnessed in the world cup qualifying game between the Boomers and Phillipines was shocking and will also be world wide news in the morning.

Holy ****. That escalated quickly.

One of the bench threw a chair, ffs. Luckily it drifted into the media pack, plenty of camera angles to work out who did what.

Farcical that play continued with half a team until the rest fouled out and there was one left on court.

"The fixed percentage has been set at 1.229 per cent and the allowance per player"

 

[Captain Cripps]

Does anyone know the money he signed on for 2 years?

I wouldn't have thought that's public knowledge.

That’s a fair call, although there are many players that have stated money and years through media and from horses mouth.
