But this will change after AFL Free Agency Compensation for Ben McKay. Extremely likely to be North Pick 3 with every subsequent pick sliding back 1.

That looks like happening because Essendon have decided to open their war chest and spend it on a longish contract starting at $800-$850k per annum. And their fans wonder why they haven’t won a finals game for almost a couple of decades.

Marc McGowan in the Age suggesting that the offer is expected to be around 750k over 6 years:

As I understand it these are the current criteria:

https://www.afl.com.au/about-afl/free-agency

The formula used is deliberately opaque and then the result produced from the formula can be overridden 'where the formula produces a materially anomolous result'. In who's opinion?  I'm at a loss to understand why there needs to be 5 bands and why three of them are dependent on where the Club concerned finishes on the ladder. Why should ladder position affect compensation given? Equalisation already happens through the reverse draft based on ladder position and through the fixturing process  which favours lower teams. Why not just allocate a free agency competition pick independent of finishing position? Much fairer.

or, better yet, do away with compensation entirely?

100% agree. Scrap compensation and it will actually promote more player movement, as teams won't be holding off on picking another player due to fears of diluting compensation.

I personally think that once a player has been on an AFL list for over 8 years, they should be a free agent for the remainder of their career.

So for example, player X chooses to move to another club in their 9th year on a 3 year deal. At the end of that 3 years they can choose to move to another club and still be a free agent.

If people feel 8 years is too short then could always start at 10 years and see how that goes and reduce if needed.

This made up compensation nonsense is a joke.

i'd go further - make it 6 years and free agent for life

i think the 'for life' bit actually does exist now, possibly?

Initially we all got excited  and were a chance for Reid, then Dursma, then  Mc Cercher., then Sanders and now thanks to the AFL the 5’2 Watson  and what next.

Hawthorn worked this [censored] out years ago.
Let those who want to play the untried draft game do so and they will  pick off the ripe fruit.

yeah but hawks did it all as free agents for the most part once they were in their 'win now' window, particularly by adding lake and frawley, while the tigs added lynch

we had to trade for our equivalents thereof

So, looking at this, Melbourne currently has 5 draft picks in play. We will get something for Brodie Grundy, and I'm not sure if we will get anything for James Jordon and James Harmes if they choose to leave. We are losing, to the best of my knowledge, Michael Hibberd, Luke Dunstan, possibly Jake Melksham, Deakyn Jones, with Ben Brown and Tom McDonald on their last legs if they play. Is it just me or does it seem that rather than throwing all our eggs in one basket with Harley Reid, that the FD will be using every one of our picks to rejuvenate our list with pace and skill, or am I reading it wrong? Grundy, Hibberd, Dunstan and Melksham would have all been on good coin, so are we going to make a play at a free agent we don't know about yet because we have some cap space?

I thought it was based on years of service for the one club, but you may be right.

Nah, in that draft order the GC lose pick 6 with the bid for Walter.  It mostly will be 7 if GC trade that pick

I think Ben McKay is a good player and I would be happy if he joined our club, but pick 4 in free agency compensation is nonsense. He's an effective defender who can intercept and contest very well, but gives nothing on the counter-attack.

Ben McKay Best and Fairest placings in a bottom-4 club are 6th in 2021 and 9th in 2020. That's it.

Those are the only years he's played a full season, too.

Essendon massively overpaying a contract for a player - and creating a net weakening of the Bomber's list - just to make sure that every other club is also penalised by the transaction?

The artist Dodoro signing his work?

    TRAINING: Wednesday 18th December 2024

    It was the final session of 2024 before the Christmas/New Years break and the Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force to bring you the following preseason training observations from Wednesday's session at Gosch's Paddock.
