Gives us the chance to throw cash at Petty to extend beyond 2025

    Reckon this is massively oversold.

    Grundy to Fullarton: clears 300-400k+
    JJ to McAdam: wash
    Hibberd: planned retirement 
    Harmes to:? Probably clears 300-400k
    Dunstan: owed plenty of injury payments 
     

    Pickett, JVR, Woey, Chandler, McVee would all take nice bumps. That’s 5 x 200k right there.

    I hope we come out nicely ahead but far from a war chest.

    The war chest will come when we get the old key forwards off the books.

    Harmes is reported to be on 550k for his final year.

    The Key fowards will come off our list next year. Conservative guess that clears 500-600k for the both of them.

    All the players you named for contract bumps have already got contracts beyond 2025+ and won't need a boost until then. 

    Salary cap has also increased from the latest EBA.

    So right now I would put this years savings approx $1mil, 5-600k next year, in the background is an increased salary cap.

    The main ooc playes next year are Langdon, Sparrow, Bowey and they won't break the bank.

    We should have good money to make a significant play next year in my view.

    Harmes is  in 500k easily

    If we aren’t paying any? And we still need someone for the list spot.

    Pick 7 and Haynes?

    Surely, there's a world where we've looked to clear cap space to increase our offer to Petty...

    I doubt Petty has anything to do with it. I’m presuming they’re in talks with a key forward from somewhere.

    I think it might be the bloke that wears number 2 that they're looking to offer a large extension to

    Why not just hold him on his current 2 year contract?

    We can, and then guarantee long term planning with a long term commitment from Harry.

    Where has this Haynes and pick 7 salary dump talk come from? Just rumours? Also, are we supposedly linked to it? Thanks in advance.

    No worries.

    With the new CBE what was the increase in total cap spend? Can’t we just give that to Petts? 
     

    I recall that not many existing contracts were bound to the CBE increases.

    So every other decent team has room in the cap to improve their lists (Coll Schulz, Bris Doedee, Port BZT & Ratagolea), but we're dumping players for chicken feed? There better a bigger payoff to come than has been mooted to date.

  • Quote

    Does anyone know if contracts can be restructured after signing to be front ended?

    If we don't make a move this year for a player, we have dead cap space that is not being utilised in 2024.

    Could existing deals be reworked to fill in the cap void in 2024 to free up space the following year(s)?

    • 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.
