It's now as clear as dogs balls Andrew Mcleod drove such an ambitious deal in his contract negotiations at the end of the season, that it's effected the ability of the footy club to deal with prospective recruits & stay within the salary cap.When you consider Roo & Goodwin both took pay cuts & Hart's wage is partly defrayed via the veteran's list.......we are still so tight we can't afford to pick up Parker, then we were well & truly screwed!
When you also take into consideration,Bickley retiring saved them perhaps $100,000[most of his wage was on the vets list last year] & Smart wouldn't be playing for much more .....you realise McLeod didn't do us any favours.....
You'd hope like hell in 2004 he'd play up to the $500,000 he's so obviously cost us!
