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.

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.

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.

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.

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)?

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
