Maybe they should make the free agency system work the same as the proposed Academy system. This makes it harder for players to just jump ship to a top 4 team and more likely to go to a cashed up bottom team. This also can mean the the club that loses the player gets fair compensation from the club that gets the player as opposed to the whole comp sliding down a spot in the draft.

If we match and the AFL PA threaten to strike. It could get ugly.
If they strike they'll be a laughing stock. They knew the rules before, and just because we are going to exercise the option which is well within our rights doesn't mean they're allowed to get their knickers in a bunch.

The AFLPA agreed to the rules, they won't strike. Not all players agree with Free Agency like Tex for example. I'd bet if they went to strike they would find a lot of players would leave the union and ignore the AFLPA, players who don't believe in the cause and players who are not solid in their teams 22 will want to play because their career will rely on it.

This is why I hate the system, regardless.

If Geelong want him, they should have to trade for him.

Getting a gun player for free, and having the rest of the competition contributing to the compensation handed out, it's just stupid.
Absolutely. Why should every other club be penalise by having their draft pick lowered when Geelong get a elite player for nothing. It makes absolutely no sense at all.

You would think that the beneficiary would have to cough up to get Danger. Bloody stupid situation.

Alex the aflpa agreed to the rfa rules in writing - they have absolutely no leg to stand on.

Have you ever done any contract law?

There is no out clause - it is clear cut.
Well, I just hope we match. Or we will end up with sweet **** all.

We already have said we will. ;)

Why do you think these Vic media types like Jay are now running with their poor Geelong agenda where afc should just do the right thing & handover danger for free...

I choose not to believe media with absolutely no evidence & choose to back in danger's love of Afc & mist importantly he thinks we are back on the right track.
He would have signed already, with full focus on building the season towards finals.

Anyway we've had this argument and I don't want to go around in circles.

I hope you are right.

Already answered that. They are just delivering a message and the AFL have a problem on their hand they don't know how to fix.

He will not go into the psd as not in anyone's interest, except the bottom club.

Afc & gfc have traded fairly in the past, so would not come to a stand off.
