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

Is there where we put the Nick Haynes Pick 7 Salary Dump conversation?

 

Yeah, dump it here. But it will cost you…

 

And I don’t want you rocking up to training

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.

Wishful thinking it seems

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.

Edited by Gawndy the Great

 

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)?

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

  • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
