The story so far -

Frawley sends a message to his best mate saying "get me out of here" - Rivers forwards it on to Scott, the negotiations begin.

Geelong have an offer in the vicinity of 450k - 500k over 5 years on the table.

Melbourne 550k - 600k 5 years

Freo - 500k - 550k 7 Years.

Those figures show he will be taking a pay cut to have "success" at Geelong. His manager is using the Fremantle offer as leverage but history will show, Geelong don't pay overs.

Could this end up a Dustin Martin scenario and he stays with Melbourne after all?

Freo offer is reported at $4m over 7 years and that is over $570k per year.

Who said we are offering $550-$600k per year for 5 years. I sincerely doubt that.

So were you a junior joiner?

So are you an English teacher?

If you have nothing better to do then pick spelling errors on this website then you must have a pretty sad life.

No sense of humour ILL?

Face it we all have sad lives being Melbourne supporters.

And you do leave yourself open grammatically.

Exactly, f him off, Watts can go too.

Sydney now in the market with an offer of 6 year 800 000 thousand a year.

Absolutely ridiculous

Trolling?

Reminds me of the good ol days, back in 1991 we had a crap team, Carlton meantime had Kernahan, Bradley, Williams, Sylvani, Brown, Gleeson, Madden etc etc. We could not afford to pay Earl Spalding what he wanted so he moved to Carlton , they had plenty of money and space in the cap! Sound familiar?

Of course players will be "allowed" to go to the Swans. No questions asked.

The broadcast deal told me that.

The AFL and CH7 need Sydney to be involved and watching the game late in September.

The East Coast is the market.

This was my fear when the bloated contract was revealled. $1.3 Bill for 5 years

CH7 have to pay that. So do FOX but they have many revenue streams.

CH7 is totally relient on advertising $$

This is why Vlad was a very poor CEO imo.

This deal will rip the guts out of Victoria.

Reminds me of the good ol days, back in 1991 we had a crap team

If our 1991 team, which finished top 4 and produced the Brownlow Medallist, was crap, what on earth is our current side?

Where did you hear this?

He heard it from his rear I think Clint...

LOL, great text message. "Get me out of here!". True leadership material there.

I've heard Sydney are into Frawley as well, but have no idea whether the dollars quoted above are correct.

Ultimately it means that players like Malceski will be allowed to walk, as was the case with Mumford, Everitt & others last year.

The difference between the top clubs and us, is that the top clubs identify and recruit top end talent that they can build a side around (ie key positions & midfielders), at any cost, and fill in the gaps with good honest triers as necessary. We, on the other hand, continue to make stupid decisions such as paying big dollars for utility types and fringe players.

I still believe Chip has had at least a verbal agreement with a club in place from early in the year, probably Geelong. The rest is smoke and mirrors

I applaud Sydney for helping us attain the best possible draft pick for Frawley.

I only have one small query, How?

Verbal agreements are not worth the paper they're written on...........

Good call pants.

Other than Jimmy and Lyon and Stretch my memory has failed me again. 1992 we finished 11th I think.

Our current side is really crap.

Edit: 1991 we finished 5th- 1992 11th

There are many ways of reaching a binding agreement. The cats aren't stupid.
