    where do you get the $500k from jim? source? are you saying dogs pay $1.1M (.6 + .5) in 2021 then $475k for the following 4 years whilst filth pay $2m (1.5 + .5) over last 4 years ?
  24. daisycutter replied to Elegt's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    according to today's hun dogs will pay treloar $3m over 5 years (avg $600k/yr) filth will pay treloar $1.5m over 5 years (avg $300k/yr) but......to help the filth's salary cap issues.... dogs will front-end some of their part of the contract and pies will back-end their part of contract the amount to front-end/back-end was not disclosed recipe for more cap issues in future for filth ?
