Doubled our war chest.

[nut]

For next year .... Clubs can pay upto 105% of the salary cap providing they were at 95% the previous year.

Okay

 

[Tiges1229]

I think our war chest is lost in a bunker somewhere .

 

[tugga]

Wow - Lets aim to tripple it for 2016 and beyond....

Fixed term deposit will reap more dividends than investing in football..!

 

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Certainly have a lot of room left for a big fish.
See what happens.

Exactly... how many free agents when this trade period??? I'd say there will be alot more movement via Free agency next period.

Hopefully we continue to use the draft and can target a free agent to increase the talent pool.

You'd think with our retirements we can go after a big FA or two next year.

Well we got a big FA this year.

 

[TigerTime88]

Arent RFC supposed to have the pay structure with players etc ? I don't know how it works but I'm guessing they try and keep like tier 1 players on a certain level then tier 2 on certain level etc etc so we don't overpay anyone similar to what cats done when they were winning flags . Now what i don't get is if we go after a free agent like Danger to get him out of Crows where he has business interests, likes the place where he lives etc then the offer would need to be a huge one like 1 mill + a year or something of the sought with a long term attached to it .

So what happens to the pay structure side of things that the club are trying to put in place , will certain players at our club get peeved off if we were to land a Dangerfield type deal .

I'm with nut. We will have massive coin to land one or two big names next off-season. And then I am going to personally quote* every post from every whinger bleating that we didn't pay overs for the B-graders on offer this year, reminding them what they would have cost us if they had Dan Richo's job they so richly deserve.


*Won't actually do this cos I can't be ****ed.

 

[Cotcho]

When we make top 4 and all our boys sign up for unders it'll make it easier to attract a big fish doozy war chesterooni. Welcome to Tigerland Patrick Dangerfield, Taylor Walker and Jack Steven!!


Why stop at one right?

It annoys the **** out of me people complaining we haven't gone out and spent big on players who really don't deserve a big payday. Same people would go ape shit if we did and one of the big name FA next year actually do move and we missed out because we paid big for a ordinary player this year.
It has been pretty widely reported that 2015 was when we would go for some FA.

Exactly.... and I dont really think we need to get a big fish.... its identifying where we most need more quality on the ground. Sometimes getting a C+ midfielder allows your B+ midfielders turn into A graded midfielders.... Its sides with strengths in their list around the 24 to 12 top players that are able to play at the highest level for the longest.
So next year I would be looking at trying to get in 2 or even 3 players in the restricted free agent bracket.... instead of wasting it all on 1 over priiced player.... and then keep hitting the draft.

There is no damn war chest. It's just a nice story like Santa Clause or the tooth fairy.


.....and we are the stupid little kids.

So if we go at 105% in 2015, we can only go at 95% again in 2016?

I think it only goes one way.... not 100%.

 

[bigange]

Can the War Chest be the new big bodied midfielder we need? Sounds like a solid unit.

0 X 2 still = 0

Warchest is more spin from our club.

or triple it

I also think they have tailored our TPP to reflect our need to maximise our ability to get top players right at our perceived peek of talent, with frontloading and paying the minimum of the TPP whilst still holding all of our good players.
