Not sure any SANFL administration were interested in reconsidering the original vote.
With the peanuts they’re getting paid, I don’t mind the extra opportunities / incentives for SANFL players to make it on an AFL list. I don’t like the idea of them being picked up by Port or the Crows to play against them though.

Um what? Why would the SANFL renegotiate?
(He says knowing full well the SANFL will gladly capitulate and drop their daks again for the AFL cancers.)
This is my biggest pet hate in high level management.
Why not just own the decision, come out and say the Crows fee will be negotiated to a lower fee due to the salary cap being decreased and the lost income they saw from last seasons AFL.
The public know what you are doing, just own it and at least hold some respect.
Good idea, the poor AFL clubs lost a fortune last year, so much so that the players took a 3% pay cut for next season. More than happy for the Crows to drop their licence fee by 3%

Or until it doesn't suit either to which we will then let them walk away from the agreement no questions asked.

5AA interviewed him last night, 10 min interview, all but 30 seconds of the interview was about the AFL teams.

crazy stuff, the majority don't want them in, but they're in anyway, whether you like it or not, or if it's in the best interests of the other 8 clubs or not.

Perhaps he could insist on a reach-around from time to time.

Nothing better than a good reach around to strengthen relationships
