¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It would not surprise me if we matched at all, the issue is, whether it’s worth the risk of matching and not being able to make a genuine deal, vs likely a top 10 pick pending where we finish.

With Danger, we were looking at a pick >15 and dealing with one potential suiter and a club likely to be reasonable in negotiations. With Sloane the waters are a little muddier. If we don’t think we’ll get band 1 for him, I suspect we’ll force a trade, but if it’s band 1, I think we’d probably rather bank the pick and move on.

Also depends if we’re bringing in any free agents too.
Is the band 1 pick straight after our 1st rounder or at the end of the first round?

So north offer a B grade player 1 million a season and they still say no? Lol north
My conspiracy theory mind says that it was all a ploy to drive up de Goey's price to make it harder for the Pies to fit Lynch in, who is really who North are targeting as a Jarrad Waite replacement.

Little doubt it’s related to contract signing. Last minute drama is text book. But if North think that making themselves look like fools again and failing to land another massive player is going to actually help them sign Lynch, they are dumber than I thought.

DeGoey apparently getting 700x2 years
Compared with 1million x5 years

He better hope he doesn’t get injured or go through a form slump. 3.5million is a lot to leave behind
Has something been announced?

$700K pa is still overs, but he probably feels he owes the club after it has stood by him.

This probably helps too.

Nixon right on the money. I've been saying this since I started on BF.
You only have to look at the players on the NAB and Swisse ads and the clubs they come from. I don't think they've ever had a player from an SA or WA club on a Swisse commercial.

Then you've got ambassadorial roles, gigs on Fox Footy, etc.
