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.

Well if your sincere doubts are true, we're trying to convince Frawley to stay on less money that what's been offered by 3 of the top 4 sides.

Wow, we have no chance!

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

well they would be dumb if they tried before the official fa time

remember adelaide a couple of seasons ago?

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

Obviously a totally reputable source when it's followed by zero people in the industry.

All part of the fun isn't it?

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.

Of course I lead a sad life...I follow the Dees!

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?

I had heard we only offered a 3 year deal around the $450-500k mark.

And I was just trying to be humerus...oops sorry thats a bone in my leg!

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

Believe... Probably...?

Low ball offer to ensure he goes, as we'd prefer pick 3..?

Believe... Probably...?

That's definitive.

I love it when people go out on a limb. Sometimes.

Low ball offer to ensure he goes, as we'd prefer pick 3..?

ha ha - sounds like tanking....

Wonder if there is a bit of a ploy here by the Club so that there isn't any definitive answer from Frawley until after today's request for a special assistance pick is decided. If he had already announced he was going there's no way the AFL would entertain a first round draft pick on top of picks 2 and 3 but without knowing if he's staying or going at this stage maybe it would help us getting a first rounder. I doubt it but hey you've got to give everything a go.

Buddy 9 year Deal

Tippets big lucratice contract.

And now a big offer on table for Frawley? Plus they have the like of Kennedy, Jack and Goodes who would be all on big money.

Well if true regardless of if they land him or not the COLA must be scrapped immediately.

I reckon he'll stay, for the guernsey

Defs, he does bleed red and blue

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

How the [censored] can Sydney afford this!? The AFL surely have to step in here and have a look.

Absolutely ridiculous

I actually read this one on facebook and genuinely laughed out loud. Just some rumourmonger trying to get more likes is my bet.

I am almost 100% sure it is complete BS.

Apparently the harbour bridge is included in the deal

I know. Why don't they just give him the Earth, like literally the Earth, all the oceans, countries and animals.. FFS! (If true)

And I was just trying to be humerus...oops sorry thats a bone in my leg!

Funny Bone!

This includes his mother going up there as a talent scout in the spirit of phat Phil.

Funny Bone!

Or an angry Basil. We could call it the Basil Wrathbone

I hope to hell it's not.

I want the virus out.

Out with the old, and in with the new.

With Frawley gone does Frost come in? And if we lose Clark we're 2 key players down. That's quite hole to fill.

I think we had that same hole this year.

Yeh and look how we went
