And I'm still eating my scarfIf we don't offer him a contract (and reports are we haven't at this stage) then he'd become a delisted FA and could go to them for free
Got to say, that although it's great for Geelong that we've landed Cameron, I don't reckon it's great for the competition. For Richmond and Geeong to land two of the best key forwards whilst they are premiership players isn't great. I'm sure if I was a North or Demons fan I'd be that little bit more disillusioned with the game.
Can see your point but that speaks more about those clubs and culture not getting it right. Why penalise those that are doing a great job. Its not their fault.

I reckon there's only a handful of decent AFL administrators going around. There's a lot of trash. Boys clubs that refuse to modernise and bring people in from outside their bubbles. I think the weaker clubs do need to examine why they fail. Generally it's through poor leadership and development. Poor culture. Poor communication between players and coaches, coaches and administration. This generation need to be treated differently to previous ones. They can see through the bullshit. Through the politics. And they don't tolerate it.
BUT, good players make good clubs. As good players make good coaches. If we allow a system that sees the good players able to move to the leading clubs year after year not much will change for a while. And that risks disaffecting a generation of young footy fans.
Reckon his next pay packet might have gone up 20-30% over the past few weeks. Good on him.My contact (a family friend) said he loves Geelong and doesn't want to leave (could have for more money at the Dogs) but he's still unsigned and in the negotiating stage.
Dogs are sniffing around again.
He's a very loyal kid and wants to forge a career at the Cats. At the end of the day money does talk if it's substantial enough.

Yes if only offered a reported 750K then match a bid of 850K if I was Jeremy CameronDid notice this on another the thread
“ If any team matches a RFA contract and can't afford it, they breach rule 28.3. They've exceeded their TPP and the AFL GC can "void" the matched offer”
If Cameron is getting 850-900k as reported today in the HS and the Giants offer capped out at 750k it makes a mockery of the whole system that they can then match.
Mate it's no different to the 70's and 80's (before salary cap) when teams Like Collingwood, Carlton, Essendon and the like could buy who they wanted.Got to say, that although it's great for Geelong that we've landed Cameron, I don't reckon it's great for the competition.

Imagine Rich If they had to give away Prestia or Vlaustin to get Lynch. Probably be playing Port this week for a start.
On what planet are those the same. More media driven “stories”. Ones free agency. The other one is a run on the mill trade

Not our fault though thats an aflpa thing.

Not at all. I'd personally force every club to trade for any player that comes to them under FA. No compo, no matching. If a player who qualifies for FA wants to come to your club you have to work out a suitable deal dependent on the wage they're coming for. In the case of Cameron - two first round picks.Do you think that was good? I agree that it's fast heading that way.
Is it different to other professional sport ? We cant weld players to clubs..players have always moved from club to club.. the mechanics might be different
Im sure North fans were yippee when they were signing Polec and the others. Melb have grabbed players as well... it gets down to if you think your team benifits
