Frawley Form Could Mean No First Round Draft Pick

Nah, the AFL will come down with Evans and say no PP, and then give us the Frawley comp at ND4 as if they are doing us a huge favour...

It's all PR and Jackson doesn't seem to want a bar of it - he should saddle up and get out there ASAP and get Roos to join him in two weeks time.

    The only factors that matter in deciding compensation are age and salary. Frawley will be 26 next month and wants about $700,000 a year.

    Yep, so why are you writing an article about his form which has nothing to do with it????

    IMO the deal has been done and he is merely going through the motions and trying to not get injured.

    I think length of contract is also a factor rjay.

    PS. Not sure why quote font size went haywire,

    If we get no PP and round 2 compensation...then I think it's pretty reasonable to believe the AFL doesn't give a [censored] about this club including us supporters.

    compo based on age , $ pa of contract and length of contract value

    We can't miss both the priority pick and band 1 compensation. The AFL wont let it happrn

    But I assume the Frawley compensation formula is set down explicitly and if his contract is not big enough we dont get first rounder? On the other matter the priority pick formula is opaque and dependent on an economics professor. Is that true? And it is now also dependent on the latest thought bubble from the AFL executive about some player tragedy scenario as bizarre as that may sound. So summing up we could indeed be screwed on both fronts here, continuing the MFC curse.

    think the article was saying he might not get such a high contract value because his form is down

    says geelong might only offer 500k thus affecting compo band

    but as others have said it could have been locked in long ago and spud is in injury mgmt

    I have no evidence of this but surely this explains his performance. Roos should make a statement and drop him.

    It's just never going to end is it?

    We are just going to keep being pushed down until we cease to be, through our own incompetence and inability.

    It. Just. Never. Ends!

    Sylvia is now getting paid the same wages as a 15 year old at McDonald's and we still managed to get a second round pick for him despite an average 2013 season (although he did come 5th in out b&f)

    I found out Sylvia is playing for virtually nothing at a recent Richmond v freo game at the MCG - a knowledgable freo member told me at the game. Way below what the average 10 year player should be on.

    Now Frawley will get paid at least double what Sylvia is on and can anyone argue Frawley's 2014 has been any worse than Sylvia's 2013?

    The club needs to give Frawley a top 5-7 finish in the b&f.

    In conclusion , if Sylvia fetched us a 2nd rd pick, I still think there's a chance we'd be able to get pick 3 for chip.

    Band 1 compo will be our priority pick imo, the afl will make certain of it. I don't see him leaving for unders anyway between Hawthorne Geelong Freo the suns and the crows someone will offer enough

    I am in agreement with others who believe that Frawley was all stitched up by another club very early on and has just been going through the motions all season. Wouldn't be surprised that he suddenly finds form next year. It's almost like he is showing us his middle finger. Contemptible.

    I went to training about eight weeks ago cf.

    I think I mentioned on here that he looked totally bored that day.

    I agree with you the die was cast at the end of 2013.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
