[Ticky009]

Taps please stay on topic all, have already deleted more than a few posts which were so far off topic they might as well have been headed to Albuquerque.

 

[The Nostradamus]

There’s really nothing to discuss here

Apparently he’s about to re-sign on a long term deal

And even if he didn’t nothing would happen this year

Tough luck Saints. #destinationclub

He doesn't like cars. How long does it take to get from Rye to Dingley by Jetski?

100%. If he did want to move to a club in contention none of them would be able to produce the draft picks required.

Hawthorn supporter who likes to get down to Rye at every chance to see his mum. The meme goes on.

Playing for the coach he dreamed about playing for

Early days mate. I’m sure you’ll remember how shit the hawks were when Clarko started out.

Would St Kilda trade say pick 4 for him (if they finish 4th last)? Probably a pretty fair deal for both teams

This is double sided. From north’s perspective they would say we will get decent compensation from afl if next year Ldu left in free agency so you better pay up more than that this year.

But on the other side only way ldu leaves this season is if he asks out. Would north really benefit from having their best player disgruntled for the last year of his contract. When he is supposed to be one of their only example setters and leaders in the club.

Also why would a team cough up more this year when they could sign him for free the next season.

It’s pretty complicated, but I can definitely see why ldu would want to go at the end of this season. But every club is probably thinking free agency is the better route.

Doubt it. They’d probably wait a year and get him as a free agent.

The last team he’d go to

They are furthest away from a flag

And again the word is he is about to re-sign

Let's revisit your 'nightmare' thoughts about NM in about 2 or 3 years, once the team gels and clicks and is able to carry out the game style.

Aren't these the only things he's considering when making a contract decision?

1. Money
2. Closeness to Rye

So that rules out North then

Rules out stkilda

Luckily the bloke is loyal and has re-signed at every opportunity

How can it rule out St Kilda but not North?

One’s been rebuilding and collecting talent the other is about to start rebuilding or continue treading water in no mans land

It's time to build the Great Dingley canal brought to you by The Honourable Chairman Sam.

Every club including North.

I also remember what Clarko had on the list when he joined.

If you say it enough you'll start believing it's fact.

Unfortunately Nostra didn't start this thread so he is GAWWWWWWWWWWN.

What is LDU's motivation for leaving this year, as opposed to next year under FA? Genuine question - it seems there's a lot more for him to gain by waiting a year.

Get out of a basket case a year earlier? Get his payday a year earlier?

The money he'll be getting from his new contract is unlikely to change in the next 12 months. He'll easily be getting band 1 level.
