North sack Daniel Hargraves

[once_were_warriors]

The said club pays North $25000.

North CEO then goes to Hargraves new club and puts the $25k through the pokies ( should take a week or too, im sure there is free coffee and bikkies for the bloke).

Problem solved.

[smac]

It is my belief that North are willing to clear Daniel to any other league free of charge, & it's only the SANFL they will require that the 25K transfer fee be met- which is worked on a formula set by the SANFL.

The formula is missing a bit off the end then.

"If you have told the player he is no longer required, subtract 80% from the final transfer value."

[Dogwatcher]

Not sure why a club feels that it has to "pay back" other clubs for past disagreements on transfer prices. 2000 is a long way back if that's the first year of their angry memories.

The only pay back I care about is a victory and ultimately the premiership. All the other crap counts for nought.

So what sort of coin could Hargraves attract at an an A1-A2 club?? $500 to $1000 a game??

Serious question as I'm interested to know what a good SANFL league player can get in the top grades of the "amateurs" for taking the club President's garbage out each week????

Punk,

My understanding is the SANFL only becomes involved when the two clubs involved cannot come to agreement on the clearance cost --- then they set the clearance fee by a set formula --- think is only for players out of contract (which a dismissed player surely is) but no 100% on this bit.

anything from $450- 700. all player payments must be audited these days and I think there is a salary cap for amateur clubs too.

Yeah but do any country clubs ever stick to it though Well obviously some do but its certainly not unusual for clubs to find their way around it.

GWW, its pure coincidence that the same players win the club raffle each Saturday night......

its a tough one to police I know but the SANFL can request to look at clubs payments to players and a few years ago most clubs kept two sets of books

I talked to a Port player once and he said the amount of blokes at that club (businessmen) who shake players hands after games with one or more hundred dollar notes in them is amazing and he'd never accounted it at other clubs. Even reserves players got nice little bonuses if they'd played a good game.

There's no way that could be policed but personally I think good luck to them if they've got sponsors/supporters willing to do that. North players are lucky to get a beer from North supporters, even then I think they would have bought me more over the years than I would have bought them, although I did share my longneck with Brett White B&F Night!

i know daniel has been offered anywhere between $600-$800 from a couple of different country clubs already...... So thats a heathly pay cheque to bring in each week for a few hours work

[mighty_tiger_79]

he would be silly to pass up that opportunity of getting easy cash

[Wedgie]

If he could get similar amounts for staying closer to home he would.
