Has the AFL cost us another player?

Redleg
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

I feel stupid saying this, but I don't believe the AFL will allow GWS to take a second player from a club through the PSD, unless the club agrees. When push comes to shove I am pretty sure the AFL will lean on GWS to go after a different club or take a delisted player. I know all the arguments about wanting GWS to succeed but the victim club would surely go to Court for an interpretation of the rules and the AFL would not want that.

Likewise redleg a player who was thwarted by the afl from taking a huge pay rise via the PSD could take the afl to court. Non?

    GW$ will target whoever they like whilst their salary cap is high. Get used to it. The job of the MFC is to create a culture where players do not want to leave.

    I really think we've done that. Tom Scully would have left wherever he was as long as he was getting more money. There was nothing we could have done to keep him, save for spending more money on him.
