Yeah this is what slightly concerns me. It's great they're all re-signing, but the fact it happened right after Luai chose to leave makes me think they instantly put his money into the others and went easy in negotiations.
Multi million dollar deal .......overs in my opinion if true ......a lot to prove yet
They probably upgraded him this year and next. So just say he gets 700k in 28-29 he might be getting extra money this and next year to account for the multi million.
When should expect an announcment that Shaun will move into the position full time?
That's a great point, we have no idea what these contracts are worth.
I’d much rather spend overs on quality first graders than have them leave and be in the market for the dregs again.
I believe he said November
Then our depth will be dregs... paying overs just shifts the issue somewhere else.
The best teams of the last 20 years have been built around a core of elite players. The challenge will be to develop players to fill the gaps.
You are talking about two different things:
I take your point.
Agreed.
I think most of the guys we’ve retained this past month have plenty of upside and enjoy playing footy together, so it’s hard to see the deals turning out terribly. I guess time will tell.
Do we care?…I don’t give a hoots what they spend as long as we have good players…I don’t want to be their auditor, just a supporter who wants to win will do
700 k a season for a player who has had one good trial game is reckless spending in my opinion
Logan Brookes was named as wing for magpies for this weekend.... I know he's usually fullback, but is he our star winger in the next year or two???
I really don't get any of this...
Look, lets review:
A player with his strength, pace, evasion and able to play multiple positions is the type we need in our squad.
