Someone called Wiedeman available for $650k:

Demons youngster Sam Weideman has reportedly asked the struggling Melbourne club for a pay rise. Herald Sun footy journalist Sam Edmund revealed the 21-year-old approached the Demons with a request of $650,000 per season.

SEN host and former AFL star Garry Lyon thought the rising star was kidding himself

“$650,000 per year? Turn it up,” Lyon told SEN Breakfast.

“He’s a super talent and those boys of that size have got a head start on some of the other players, but he’s a long way off.

“Brody Mihocek is ahead of Sam Weideman as a footballer and he’d be on $210,000.

“You incentivise him with a base of whatever it is and if you play to that level consistently, you’ll earn $700,000.”

Weideman was drafted as pick Number 9 in 2015 and made his debut in 2016. Despite playing just 20 games across four seasons, the towering forward has made moves in 2019, averaging over three marks a game and booting five goals from four games.

$650k lol.

It's all relative with a salary cap. Polecat wanted $ and got it.

Broady, Motlop, Hartlett, Dixon and Jonas would all be earning large dollars without having a big impact on the team.(atm you could include hoff, ryder and Wines)

If you had Weideman and Marshall in addition to Rozee, Butters, Duursma, Wines, Burton, Clurey, Farrell, Drew, DBJ, SPP and Lycett/Hayes then the future would be looking rozee.
 
Less than what Tippett signed for in 2009

Tippett kicked 55 goals in 2009, had just ripped apart a finals series, taken 40 contested marks for the year and was in the top 3 young KPFs in the game at that point in time.

Its a bit different.

I'm happy to go after him, but I dont think he'll actually leave and he certainly isn't worth $650k a year.

I just think we have salary cap to spend. Ryder, Westhoff and Broady come out of contract this year. We need another quality kpf. There's meant to be very few in the draft. We have a good young list with lots of players nearing the end and unlikely to win a flag. Weideman would be a great fit...but it's not going to happen!

James Rose – Sydney

Games this year: Nil
Contract: 2019
Would suit: Port Adelaide


Now into his fifth season at Sydney, Rose has featured in at least one match every year since he was drafted. But with just nine senior games overall, he enters 2019 on a one-year deal. Continues to rack up possessions at ease in the NEAFL, headlined by his four-goal, 39 disposal game against a GWS reserves team featuring 16-AFL listed players a fortnight ago. Could he be a left-field option back home in SA with several Port Adelaide's goalkicking options now over 30?

> Pay squillions for Buddy
> Round 1 have a forward line of Buddy, Dixon and Marshall
> Have them all push up the ground
> Boot it blindly to Sam Gray 1-on-3 as the only player in the FWD 50

Rose will just get de-listed but the article had some interesting names. Brennan Cox, Tom Cutler and Bailey Williams the best names for Port. Sier and Brodie would be good gets for someone but wouldn't suit Ports list as inside mids. There's probably a few attitude issues amongst these players.
