I have been told 2 different stories(first one had Lynch gone and Rory staying) but the one that comes out of the 3 main Sport Journo's in Adelaide's office(relayed) is that he is gone to Collingwood, take it for whatever you want, this agreement was allegedly made at the beginning of the year. Have not bothered to ask the actual source directly, probably because I don't want to hear that he is gone. Belinda apparently has a contract with 7 in Melbourne, for me same story as Danger, how do Adelaide clubs compete with the whole package including the media? As we all know Rory is all quality, on and off the field, my guess would be $1m x 3 then options for both parties.Rory would probably get an extra 200- 300k per year for media I am guessing which as with Danger we cannot compete with . Losing interest in doing the work for the Victorians going back to Melbourne to play in what is still the VFL , the most biased sport competition on the planet bar none.

I raised this third party deal setup vic clubs have on the main board. Basically vic fans shut me down because they know it’s a huge advantage. If he’s gone to Pies we are screwed in terms of compensation due to their good year. If we end up playing finals even tier one compensation will be crap.

If Saint Kilda can keep playing this type of footy and get a few more wins on the board, would they be in the running for Rory's signature?

If Rory gets 1m a year for three years... we get a band 1 pick after our first.

But I can’t see how pies can get both Rory and Lynch... considering they’d have to offer lynch atleast $1.5m a year to get him off suns.. how do they fit that and a mill a year to Rory on top of what they are paying players like Treloar and JDG.. doesn’t add up, the rest of the team must be on peanuts.. and we know Mayne isn’t for a start.

So last night at the game there were 2 new Ads on the screen I haven't seen this year featuring Rory.

Very strange as it's been deathly silent all season.

Surely now he's staying.. ;)

Translation reads to me if we can find Belinda work he'll stick around.
Can we pay her $800k a year to host the TV shows we produce and pay Rory minimum salary to keep some room in our cap for another player......

I wonder what the AFL would even do if we did pay Belinda an inflated amount to host the TV shows we produce to save cap space. Brenton Ragless is the highest paid presenter on Adelaide TV and he would be nowhere near $500k.

Would the AFL have the stones to call out our club for such a thing. Publicly devaluing Belindas value in the media?
