Looks like GC may just get their man. That's an extraordinary offer and I wonder if Ablett sees GC as a new challenge, having won a Brownlow and GF.

I know this isn't directly Carlton related, but it does show the level of desire and the amount of money they have to throw around.

I reckon he'll go.

With that kind of money and the fact that Geelong will start to slip down the ladder soon, why wouldn't he bail out to a new team and a new challenge?

And his brother will be in his ear as well telling him how good it is up there
 
An absolute no brainer if that number is anywhere near correct. You just go! An unbelievable amount of money, even for Gazza.
 
It'd be a long-term win for Geelong as well. They'd have all that money freed up in their salary cap to build on an already excellent team even without Ablett. And who knows, maybe the Ewing Theory may apply...
 
If you read the article properly it actually says that talk of any offer above $1.5 a season are ludicrous. The stroy is a beat up with no basis on fact whatsoever.
 
It's not just about the money, and it's not like he's struggling for a buck at the moment. If he goes to GC, he will go from a winning team, with lots of strong midfielders who protect him, to being the only gun in a team of kids. He will get smashed, and that could shorten his career.

I hope he goes!

Geelong will be out of the race next year if he does....better for us
 
I'm not sure he go leaving a club for money.He has the money,the women or the men if he wants already with the money he has.I think with Geelong he still can win more with Gold Coast it might take a decade to win a flag.He be finished by then.

Does our resident nutcase overdo the bad grammar a little sometimes?

I hope every player approached by Gold Pass tells them to stick it.

But then gold pass will go crying to fat andrew and he will step in and start ripping players out of clubs just to please himself and make sure that GC17 gets to play in finals in their first year.

The umpires arent too bad at doing that either so he has nothing to worry about
 
It will be great for every other team if Ablett signs.... less money for them to throw at other players eg Gibbs. Will mean they will get a bunch of mid level players keen to play with Gaz, rather than a bunch of upcoming stars.
