6.7 million was the cap am i not wrong? so drummond and judd take up 1.5 million of that for at least the next 3 years. thats just under 25% of the cap. for 2 players. most teams have what 44 players on their lists? what are they gonna pay the other 42 with?
Rebecca Twigley?

its rumoured drummond has a vegie garden and his carrots are top notch :thumbsu: :thumbsu: :thumbsu: :thumbsu: :D :D
 
Screwed? Drummond is a star. Awesome player. How does that make them screwed? Salary Cap? Because that's already been sorted out...

Correct me if im wrong but is Drummond actually an accountable defender?

From the game I have seen of him this year seems to just play the floating player across half back racking up the cheap touches.

Not having a big at him and he plays the sweeper role well, but we have enough of them at Richmond and need a decent genuine accountable defender.
 
Each club can pay players approx 420k in marketing payments that are not counted in the sallary cap. I would imagine that much of Carltons 420K allowance will go to Judd for marketing as part of his package

I know about the marketing payments. It doesnt change much because you'll have to pay Fev his missing marketing pay aswell as Stevens, Murhpy, Gibbs etc. Money they would have expected to get if Judd didnt come, money that would have been written into their contracts.

7mill over 5yrs is alot of $$$.
 
I feel so sorry for you.....hand over Drummond and take a tissue from me

no u ignoramus, i mean the reported leavings. how many brisbane players got traded last yr?? correct me if i'm wrong, but only 2 brissy playas to leave last yr were acker (a.k.a filthy traitor) and michael (a.k.a. filthy traitor #2). and they haven't exactly had great yrs with their respective clubs. just becoz u hav judd, doesn't mean ur suddenly respected. carlton is still mocked and belittled for its appalling team and its cheating ways. last time we played, 118 pts was it not??

Obviously you haven't seen enough, he is very accountable and doesn't have bags kicked on him, solid defender.
 
First you give us all these rubbish scoops from your "sources" at WC about what is happenning with Judd and they turn out to be a pile of crap.

Now you are telling us that you know what Judd is getting paid ?........why do you throw a figure of $7 mil around if you dont know ?......does it make you feel important in the world of BF ?.................or is this from another one of your "good sources from" high up in the eagles heirarchy?......or do you just alter unsubstantiated media claims to suit your argument and then sprout them in Forums as fact.......... whatever it is it is getting harder to believe your claims

Yawn.

The regulation attack the poster when you know they are right.

First off, the deal I said was pick 4, 21 and TJ. I said we had agreed to that, not that Judd had agreed. It was on the assumption that Judd picked the Dees. Which I heard was a good thing, somewhat curiously that was also strongly felt in Melb just after I posted it. Secondly, you might notice that deal bears a striking resemblence to the one we actually did in terms of make up. Thirdly, pretty damn big coincidence that TJ ended up being traded anyway, and even more interesting is that fact we were reported to be showing interest in him (see Ch 9).

And the Judd contract? Well thats just common knowledge. He is on over $1mill a year and its a 5yr term. He was on about 750k with us, dont tell me your naive enough to think that he goes to a club like the Blues and doesnt get a good pay rise.

yer, but you've also have nothing of any value to trade for the last 5 years except Fevola which probably came very close.

The key test will be maintaining this list of stars you are building. Can you get guys like Murphy, Gibbs, Judd, Stevens, Fevola, Waite, Kruezer and Walker and Simpson who i rate highly, along with Scotland to all remain at the club for lower than market value wages. At the moment they are all on their first contracts so you have plenty of room. But in 3 years when they are all out of contract and money gets thrown their way, it will be a big test.
 
apparently theyre offering 1 million over the next 3 years. how the **** can they afford that?!?!? they just signed up judd for 1.2 a year!!!

a portion of judd's salary will be for marketing

the media love throwing up 1mil (plus) per year as it makes a great headline.

no doubt judd will be the highest paid layer at carlton and proberly the league, but IMO only about 800,000 will be in the salary cap.
 
Can't wait till Gibbs, Murphy, Walker, Kruezer, Bentick, Simpson, Setana and Hampson all demand wage increases,

We'll see many of them be declined a satisfactory increase and the PSD will be a goalmine filled with unfulfiled talent from Carlton :)


thats what happens when you tank/be rubbish for years and pick up other clubs players cos you are always no 1 or 2 in draft/psd. its called karma.
 
actually the common quote in the media is $6mil / 5 years.....I dont know how accurate it is....do you?.......but hey, lets just throw an extra million on to his contract and then use it to illustrate the salary cap problems Carlton will face.......shyte..........lets make it 7.5 and then Carlton will have even more cap pressure


His contract wouldnt be set. Certainly part of it will be performance based. He will probably earn between 6 and 7 mill IMO.

I dont care how much pressure the Blues cap is under. Your not competing with us and you dont have any players we want.
 
Can anyone else see karma coming back to bite Carlton in the a$$ Buckley style?

My guesses:

1. Judd's injury is degenerative and the Blues are left paying $1m a year for someone who can barely get around the field.

2. Two the the three players who end up being the subject of the trade to the WC end up being stars and part of a couple of grand finals whilst Carlton continue to flounder.

3. Gibbs develops nicely and does a Judd and demands a trade for 20 cents on the dollar.

once weve won 3 or 4 maybe even 5 grannies in a row, players will accept paycuts:)


Are you serious ??!!

WCE could only win 1 with JUDD, cousins, kerr, cox, etc...

What makes you think the blues would be better then that ??

I'm telling you Judd has played his last Grand Final.

He's accomplished everything in footy.....brownlow, captained premiership side...TRust me he's only in it for the MONEY now.

i hope you are right. actually you probably are. they have a good midfield now but KPP spine? Fev will be gone by the time Murphy, Gibbs and Kruzer reach maturement and zero defence to speak of.

Im feeling better now.
 
plenty of sour grapes from the essendon, wce and melbourne supporters

bombers, i'd be looking at your own backyard ... with "Johnny Dead Tooth" Knights at your helm and Ashley Prescott (and hopefully Tony Free) as his assistants, we can only imagine what will happen at Windy Hill after Sheedy

to think Knights expected a first round pick for Kepler Bradley ... its going to be fun seeing you slide ... and thankfully we will not have to tank against your worthless team again, which was such a hassle this year given you almost blew the match late in the season, even with us tanking!!!

the dees haven't and wont win a flag in ages ...

and the eagles ... just watch Kotchin do the same thing in a few years time with your club ... hopefully Judd has set the precedent
