Richmond and the salary cap

Maybe it has been brought up elsewhere...

But what about the move by Richmond to get Graeme Polak onto the 'special case/Ramanaskas" list as the long term injured list was "a bit unfair" and there view seemed to be that they were helping out a basket case that may be viewed as community service.

He played and showed a bit apparently in a intra-club match just two months after they felt unjustly treated!

Devious pricks they are,with that certainly smell of K.Sheedys work.

    they are just trying to get what they can within the rules, the trick is to find the edge of those rules a push them a little further. IN that vein, the polak bid was worth a go , as they say if you don't ask you never know.

    Any Club would have done that with a player injured as polak is. I am More interested to see how long The Ben Cousins Hammies Last.If he has a Gun Season it will be another loss to us.

    It appears that the AFL will investigate the matter. Let's hope it's a thorough investigation and not an attempt to simply vinicate previous actions of any club or AFL officials.

    This is the old "we will look into it" bulldust.

    Wait for the season to start ... wait for or find a diversion. Then do nothing.

    The AFL have one set of rules for some clubs and another set of rules for others. Its all about the money.

    If you have the ability to put bums on seats its amazing what you will get away with.

    As I said before this is a rotten to the core club ... plus now I want to add desperate that will do anything for finals success.

    Have a look at the AFL fixture and tell me whether there's any integrity involved in this competition.

    How true.

    If he has a good season, so be it. It's irrelevant to "us" as far as I'm concerned.

    If he's having a gun season in 4-5 years time, well that is a different story.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
