Word is his nose is out of joint regarding the amount of money Warnock got.

I'd imagine there may be a few at the Blues who feel that way. They were just after the best possible deal for M.M.

Nothing like a rumour.

However it is a valid concern when you go and pay top market value for a young player you set a benchmark by which every other player manager will be pitching in for. The Blues will have to manage this carefully. Or is that Visy?

hardly surprising, given it would've meant quite a large pay cut for himself

Did it actually do that? Do you know that for a fact?

His existing contract would 2 to 3 years old and his salary would be below where his market value is.

Murphy would be one of the marquee players in the Blues line up. I doubt whether they would financially squeeze him. They will squeezes others though.

no, don't know it for a fact, but that is my guess.

Its the only reason i can see for the delay in him signing.

but its a moot point anyway, i could care less about Carlton players' salaries

"i couldn't care less about Carlton players' salaries"

Isn't that a little-known quote from Andrew Demetriou?
