you should go to the other thread discussing your question but part of the answer is top clubs getting fa's without having to give up any players or picks at all

Free agency - the rich (clubs) get richer
sure, getting receiving club to pay the equivalent compo pick is better than now.....i just think in most cases (top players) it would still be too cheap definitely match bids as a strategy.......but not always possible daniher situation last year was not a fa situation. but in his case you are right that they won't get as good an offer this year

definitely 75% done deal

Free agency - the rich (clubs) get richer
that (matching) won't be true for all restricted free agents who are big fish where the club currently with the player cannot match the offer....e.g. buddy. so this leaves the receiving club who may get a top player paying no player or pick penalty at all, and the afl offering a compo pick which is really paid by all the clubs dropping down the draft list the receiving club is not paying any price (players/picks) and in most cases the relinquishing club is being short changed with a compo pick. Furthermore if the receiving club is a top club equalisation just gets further skewed in favor of top clubs.

Free agency - the rich (clubs) get richer
just picking the frawley case is cherry picking. it is the exception and i did say the club doing the pillaging should have to pay the realistic trade value....e.g. in jezza's situation 2 first round picks as was the case for kelly and dangermouse.
-
Free agency - the rich (clubs) get richer
but the current compensation pick is set deliberately below the realistic trade value. the realistic trade value in points value is what should be paid by receiving club. even the afl has said it is not meant to be a full compensation. secondly the current compensation pick is not necessarily even a specific pick because it can depend on the ladder position of the giving club (e.g. next pick after current first pick etc). no, it has to be based on a real value as in tradeable value. how this is determined is not so easy.......and by who? the current non publicised herbs and spices is too open to manipulation. a tradeable value would have to pass the pub test.

Rhyce Shaw takes extended break
roos would need to sign on for 3 years to make any tangible difference i can't see him committing to that he could come in on a 1 year special consultancy though, not as the coach
