Is that all Essendon have offered? I thought it would be closer to the $200 - 250k mark. At a guess I'd say we'd offer around that figure considering we'll have to get to 95% of the cap somehow, it could possibly be more.
That's my understanding, though I have been known to get things completely wrong on multiple occasions.

I would have though a wink and understanding that he can stay on as the boot-studder for 2 or 3 years at $200k a season if he gets injured is reasonable.

Yep I spoke to a guy well connected at the club yesterday. He said that Gumby and Hille will sign. Also said something about the weapon having legal troubles coming up. Not sure what that was all about.

Seems the club has been waiting on Hille and Gumby to determine who will be delisted and how many. Considering it seems both will play on next year.

If we get away with a year depending on his season in 2013 than it stops us from losing him for nothing under FA pretty happy with that.
