Former #2 Big Sammy Draper

Sure, but you never consider the money, only the player.

TDK is fantastic but he’ll never give you 1.7m a year worth of value.
You just put a big, brutish Ruckman like Nank to compete with him, and his influence can be quelled.

I don’t care about the wages.

If Nino was in charge we’d have Rhys Mathieson on the books with 8 years left on a contract.

Yep, your running brigade who are imperative to transition footy (offensive and defensive) are where you want to invest the bulk of your money - mids, high half forwards, half backs, wings, and at least one marquee small forward on big money.

You probably want one gun tall forward but rucks and multiple key forwards on big money is probably a waste.

Apparently the Blues are getting Draper from us, ready to offer 1.2m. TDK to the Saints. Bombers going for Pittonet.

Who said this?

Purple flogs word of the day

I see darkness falling
I hear voices calling
I feel justice crawling
I see faith has fallen

I hear voices in my head
They council me
They understand
They talk to me

They earned contracts, but in no way did they deserve or earn long term deals.

Kinda hope we play Goldy so we can play Draper forward.

I wanna know if those jumping the gun saying he’s worth 6 years on big coin are actually right.

Nothing compares with Pazza’s reaction to Scott Lucas’s manager saying Scott needed a bigger deal for his final year.

Pazza…give him 4 years.

He stayed…for one more year…when he was completely shot.

As insurance,we should sign Goldstein for another 3 years.:smiley:

Geez I liked his mad eyes though

I don’t know exactly how it works. But i would assume there is some sort of “audit” day that the AFL uses to calculate what a player’s applicable salary for this free agency palava is. It’s probably not until then that some players know whether or not they are on the top 25% (players dont know what there team mates are earning).

This Guy loves Draper

Didn’t he kick seven goals in a quarter in his last game?

Gawn definitely had multiple years where he would have justified equivalent wages.
