With Jimmy not resigning i was wondering what people think we should pay him. It appears as if what we will pay him is the stumbling block especially with lower clubs circling.
What do you think he is worth per year?

Anything over $300k-350k is ridiculous.

Figures like that (where midfielders are concerned) should be reserved for All-Australian/B&F calibre guys who are proven and consistent performers over a long period of time.

As Thompson said, if Jim wants to be paid similarly to Joel Corey there isn't a problem, if he wants to be paid similarly to Matthew Scarlett then we've got a problem.

I trust that a compromise will eventuate.

He's not far off signing according to one of his bell park buddies.

I put 300-400 initially, but upon further consideration, I reckon 200-300 would be more appropriate. I think probably just under 300, around 280 would be a fair price. He has his good games, but doesn't have the consistency yet which would fetch a 300-400K price tag.

I picked $200k-$300k
While I think he's the f-ing man, that's just my bias, and even I can still see he's not worth anymore than that ATM!
