It's all relative I suppose, maybe on the cheap as depth. Would prefer Eddy in that role though.

What happened to Menzel? I liked that idea much better.

Out goes : *estimated* ( average AFL wage is $302k this year )

White ( 300k )
Krakouer ( 300k )
Monfries ( 300k )
Young ( 300k )
Ah Chee ( 300k )
Trengove ( 500k )

$2m +/-

In comes :

Motlop ( 600k )
Watts ( 600k )
Rockliff ( 650k )

$1.85m +/-

6 out, 3 in and no real $$ better off unless current top enders are going into the back end of front loaded deals....

We'll show you, North Melbourne. :D


Maybe one more big delisteing too Booney ;)

I think you are well overestimating the salary you are freeing up.
Krakouer Young and Ah Chee would be about 500 between them if the average wage is 300

You ain't getting Rockliff for 650k either.

Rockliff’s value is dropping so $650k would be about right


I know Brisbane are concerned about the damage to his shoulder

I was just saying to a Port mate of mine that I reckon you have plenty of Rockliff types already. What you need is outside finishing and pace. Rockliff, Wines, Boak are all slow-ish in and under players.

They're the most common, look at most clubs and their best mids are those types. Agree though more pace required, probably why we're keen on Motlop
