Is the player a Free Agent or the club? That's BS. Who cares if is or is not true. To be true it was designed to give a chance to those players not getting one at their existing clubs. To be true that is not how it is working. Why bother developing players through the draft, just raid the bottom clubs and it costs nothing. A flawed system, must be fixed.

When a club gains a player through FA it costs them nothing (the worst player on their list - delisted) This is a major problem with the system. The recipient club should have to give up the equivalent compensation pick. In Frawleys case probably Hawthorns first pick (Band 1) this pick goes back to the AFL. The current compensation from the AFL for the donor club is OK. No FA to top 4 sides other than from other top 4 sides.

Take a breath dude. Machsy, he did. Two sentences.

This thread should be called "Most people don't understand compensation"

Did a search on hirding, not in Wikipedia. But in my urban slang dictionary it means, Low life scum bag, Untrustworthy cheat, see Mitch Clark11 was that your meaning?

I don't think the appeal will go ahead. I think it is a bargaining chip. It's like watching a magician, they wave their hands about and make you watch what they want you to watch, meantime the skulduggery goes on elsewhere...More obfuscation.

We tend to forget that what Jaques says may not be what he means. I am going to appeal the Federal Court decision as it would be to admit a lie. Translation :I am going to do what ever it takes to get a bigger payout from Essendon, I don't care who I hurt or what it takes even if it destroys every friendship I have ever had and totally ruins my beloved club, just offer me heaps of money and I will go away, until I need more money.

I said that yesterday and got pilloried. SLOW DOWN Billy!

Thanks Beeb, tears and great memories.

Toughen up Kika, a real man could handle all this and more and still be a loud and proud Melbourne supporter, Oh that's right you are and this is a Princess Mitch thread.

Unless the sentence is. Frawley is not 1/1000th the person or player that Robert Flower was.

How much will it cost them for Hird to shut up?

No deal with Geelong unless it gets us HL. There is no way in hell that Geelong will let him go to the draft. They want him, he will play in their best 22 even if it is 15 games per year he is a bargain, they will pay! Play hardball or the draft! F him.

The band we receive is calculated based on the deal the player gets. It should be taken into account the value of a possible flag. If you go to a side in the top four add $250k pa. Surely the chance to win a flag is part of "the deal".

Sort of James Hird’s Statement

No problems we trade for him pick 98.

Because you are a self righteous narcissistic pryk.

I think further penalties against the EFC are required for again bring the game into disrepute. Get your house in order EFC or lose your position in the AFL this has gone on far too long.

The compensation should include a cost to the destination club. If round 1 compensation is appropriate the destination club lose their round 1 tip etc. This way other clubs don't get pushed down as well.

And boned Selwood's missus.

And 2 languages!

Long drawn out painful death, gotta love it. Those Hirds must have threatened legal action, big time. EFC to check with silks. I still think he is gone, I hope he drags that club down.
