Nope

Once a week work at training.

Apparently we have reached out to Tom Hawkins as a part time forwards coach. Nothing official yet but Cal Twomey announced it just then.

Coming up with Cal and Riley.

You can still salary dump even if you dont have salary cap issues. Clearly they want him out for cultural purposes but also having a part of his salary off the books is just an bonus, not because we are bursting at the cap hence why we are happy to fork out 700k of his salary according to reports.

Nah ignore the haters mate and keep posting. Its quality.

Based off what exactly? You're clearly adamant this is the case considering guys like Cal Twomey, Jon Ralph and Tom Morris have all reported that we are more then happy to still pay a chunk of his salary (700k) even if it meant accepting a low pick as well.

Isn't this exactly what this is? Similar to the Grundy situation where we were roughly only paying 300k whilst Collingwood paid the rest. We gave up a second rounder for Grundy from memory.

All media reports state that it will be Melbourne paying majority of the portion which is around 700k and the Giants take the rest which will be a lot less. There is no way the Giants would be picking him up and taking majority of his salary. They would baulk at the thought of paying of having to pay up 900k a season. The purpose of getting him from a Giant perspective is because he is coming cheap financially, but also from a draft capital as well.

Question remains now.. Who blinks first?

Also mentioned that they wont be trading Jake Rogers. He shut that one down pretty quickly..

Craig Cameron on trade radio still very adamant that they wont be trading Humphrey regardless if clubs continue to ask.

Not how it works. You're not only pushing the player out deliberately but willing to still pay a huge portion of the salary, then expect to get peanuts back.

No offence mate thats a bad deal for Melbourne..

That's true. Taking constructive feedback on feedback on board doesn't seem to be in his vocabulary.

Pretty sure Oliver would have relayed to the Giants exactly what he was told by King and Co..

That's incredibly sad to hear.
