Dunkley?

yep

 

[Swansujelly]

ok. Perhaps my spideysenses are wrong, time will tell.

 

[Number37]

he has shown no indication..

Perhaps that is by design.

 

[BruceFromBalnarring]

Bump.

 

[robbieando]

Of our rookie listed players I can see Naismith and maybe Newman being promoted to the senior list with Perris being given the 3rd Year Rookie Tag. The others would be kept on for a 2nd year on the rookie list.

 

[The King!]

I dont like the Rampe 4 year deal

 

[Millky95]

I dont like the Rampe 4 year deal

Think it should've been 2-3 and he will get complacent?

Didn't Naismith already get promoted?

Only because AJ got put on the long term injury list

 

[robbieando]

Yep, he is still out of contract at the end of the season and would need to be re-signed and promoted to the senior list if he is kept for 2016

I think the Rampe deal shows the club isn't too optimistic about the return of AJ IMO.

I know we have a guy on a 9 year deal, but i dont like long term investments in players unless they are the absolute cream and peaking.

If we need to give hanners or parker 4 years to stay whatever.

Dont get me wrong Rampe is a good player, important to the side, but he is not irreplaceable, give him 2 and see what happens, he could easily drop off .

 

[Heeney2Franklin]

4 years is excessive by all rights Parker/Hanners should demand 6?

2 years would of kept a fringe player hungry.

Who could be though really? but yeah suspect it played a part, maybe also staggering payments across many years to reach an acceptable total.

When is AJ out of contract?

Fair call. Think they may want him to move into Shaw's role next year as well

When is AJ out of contract?

This year I believe

Can we rookie list him or something robbieando

Issue would be someone else taking him I guess but who would want him?

True and that also another club might of been involved in the bidding. Agree that 4 years for a player like Rampe is too long, but I doubt it will harm us going forward $$$ wise

i just meant why clutter our cap with a kid who most likely never plays
but seems cold to just cut a premiership player and id like to see him given every chance to play

But its a business at the end of the day. Rookie list or outside the cap would be a nice compromise

 

[robbieando]

Can we rookie list him or something robbieando

We can if we don't re-sign him to the senior list. I would rookie him but I think he'll be the last player we deal with in terms of list management. A spot on the list would be up to him.

Yup just want him to get his life back first and foremost

FA is changing the length and quantity of player contracts. I suspect 3/4 is the new 1/2. It's forward thinking like this that will make the Buddy deal look so good in hindsight.

He was out of contract at the end of last year and was re-signed. No doubt he is on a base contract plus match payments, just as he would if he was on the rookie list. Regardless of where he is listed he'll take up a spot. On the senior list we can replace him via LTI with another player from the rookie list. On the rookie list he would be holding a spot. If we rookie him, it would be because we could get 3 players off our senior list as required.

 

[The King!]

I agree with Vonn

But Rampes grow on trees, let him walk if he doesn't like 2 years

188-cm average kicks with heart who give a contest are a dime a dozen

True

The club will sign him for a year is my guess (based on nothing)
