What would we give for Judd??

[WonnaJurah 5]

Warnock and Jamar , will do for me,

Would have to be the first 2 picks and a west aussie like CJ.

YM thats a quality team...if only we could fit in McDonald...he can be depth

One more thing about Judd coming to Melbourne - if by some miracle CAC and co pull it off we'll have to make substantial room in the salary cap to pay him. That means one of three things will have to happen:

1. Delist players who are out of contract

2. Current players take a pay cut to afford him

3. We trade one or more of our high paid players to make room

2 is unlikely, we'd probably have to delist 4 or 5 to make up Judd's income so 3 is the most logical move. Players that would be an option would have to be our most highly paid guys eg Neitz, White, Bruce, Yze, Green

I could be wrong but I think only half of Neitz and Yze's money counts as they are or will be veteran's next year. Bizzell and Pickett in particular would be looking at substantial paycuts next year if they stay as both are out of contract at the end of this year. Replacing a couple of experienced players (ie. Ward) with a kid also saves a fair bit. Would be very surprised if we found it that difficult to find room in the cap.

Melbourne at the end of this year will be in the best position its been in a long time to trade for a big name.

A likely high draft pick

A few players out of contract who will take pay cuts

Fair amount of room in the salary cap with Neitz and Yze on the vets list.

are we limited to the number that can be on the vets list ? are they the only two ?

[BrownlowBruce 1]

wat would i give for the , wat would u give for judd topics to stop for a few more months

[Kit Walker 209]

I think its a maximum of 2 and they have to be 30+ and played with the club for at least 10 years.

[GIRO 63]

Miller+Green+ 1st pick most likely in the top 5, i don't think that WC would go 4 any less than that\
