According to the HUN (behind a paywall) talks have stalled between Parish and EFC

Hmm

I’ve seen the article, it says Essendon and Parish expect him to stay despite a 100k gap in his value, he’s currently got an offer for around 750/5 years at Essendon, and we are willing to pay a fair price but not overs because we have an eye to the future.

Gotta bank that cash for when Tsatas deserves $1.2m / 5 year extension.

 

[citizen-erased]

dunno

worked for tom mitchell

The overwhelming majority of Brownlow's have been by poor kicks outside Ablett.

Out of interest what you do think he would need to get paid to trigger band 1?

Also the bloke who wins it in the middle and gets a kick away with three blokes hanging off him doesn't usually hit someone lace out.

Anything higher than what we are offering I would expect

Walsh is a beautiful kick and came third or so in the Brownlow a few years ago.

But you right that past winners like Fyfe and Cripps are also physically banged up and got a couple of opponents hanging off them etc

My main issue/beef with the Brownlow is defenders never get votes or due recognition.

Last backman to win the Brownlow was Fred Goldsmith in 1955 and I can't see any other full back/defender ever winning it again.

No. Gavin Wanganeen '93.

Stand corrected. Although I always thought he was more of a Wingman (well in his later years at Port Adelaide)
But yes, he did win the brownlow as a Backman with Essendon.

It'll be a number somewhere between 800-820

 

[Keystone agony]

800 gets band 1 still i feel

Although that seemed the number years ago and the cap has gone well up since then. So imo it should be higher than that now

800 definitely does, 750 also should.

 

[CatToTheFuture]

800 definitely does, 750 also should.

750 seems a little light on for band 1 surely

It's right on the edge of Band 1 and Band 2. There's a list in the pinned resources thread of past FA deals, what they were worth and what the compo was, although it varies somewhat from year to year and CBA to CBA.

Look I do think Parish will stay at Essendon.... But the club is not going to say, we expect him to leave...

 

[foxdog50]

Also another question? What would you rather as a club, let Parish go as a RFA, or pick up McKay as a RFA?

I expect we get McKay and keep Parish. If we had to choose it’s kinda complicated depending on how the AFL values McKay’s comp, we would prioritise whichever combination gives the greatest net benefit. Possibly both go as free agents and we preserve our existing picks.

Parish compo = pick 6-7
Mckay for free pushes our 1st pick back one in likelihood

I take the parish compo and north can take our 2nd for mckay or im happy to walk away

True, but it's like us with Esava, Chris Scott and the board are still confident in Esava is staying, but we all know his gone

 

[Strahany]

If he could be had for sub $1M/yr over 4-5yrs then that’s a no-brainer for any club without a midfield that’s busting at the seams with talent.

Not the complete package as a player, but that contract price + no trade cost is an amazing deal.

Unlike in a court of law though, silence in in response to a question from the media is incriminating

The media already thinks Ratugolea is leaving… and that they’re lying by saying he’s staying anyway. Silence and lies have the same consequence.

Cut the crap and just say that he has a decision to make, they love him, he’s a valuable member of the team, whatever silly cliche comes to mind.

Do what his brother does “that’s not my department, but I’d certainly like him to stay. My job is to cultivate an environment he wants to be a part of and that’s what I’m focused on”

Might as well be honest and mature about it, if the frenzy comes regardless.

Sav is gone, they're just making a show of his much they love him.

It's true too. Chris Scott genuinely loves him.
