AFL concessions for Brizvegas

Start new topic

The AFL is going to give Brizvegas salary cap relief to allow them to sack a player who is recovering from depression but has been silent on what concessions it might allow clubs if their own creation GWS pilfers 19 year old players from other clubs with AFL money.

Conflict of interest anyone?

How?

Completely separate issues.

I think it's a good thing they are making a special ruling for Brisbane in Fev's case.

It is a unique situation, & the Lions are absolutely struggling right now.

I don't think it's good for the sport for Brisbane to struggle so badly.

They're in such a mess that this special ruling won't really be an advantage for them, it'll just make it easier for them to stay afloat.

It's not a big deal.

Assuming they owe Fev $1.5m for the next 2 years, they are just allowing $750k to be reported in the salary cap each year, instead of the front ended contract they have.

$1.5m will still have to go towards the cap.

Yep..same deal the Saints got for Lovett.
