interesting how Judd's third-party deal has now been ceased by the AFL

very interesting!

Looks like the AFL is just going to completely cancel the possibility of legal third party agreements so there's no confusion as to what's legal and what's not ;)

I think its a good idea anyway!

Part of me agrees Toga get rid of the third party deals, but then another part of me thinks if everything is passed by the AFL and gets rubber stamped by them then a player should be able to do a few adverts, media work etc whatever and be paid for it.

If a club is going to cheat the system as we did they will just go back to the brown paper bag stuff of days gone by if there are no options to earn money away from their football. We just need everyone to play by the rules which seems like an impossible ask when so much is on the line. Maybe the third party deals should go but there would be an abundant number of ways clubs could fill up a players contract illegally. All we all want is for our clubs to play by the rules, its time they all realised this and did just that.
Wishfull thinking on my part me thinks.

So remove third party and up the salary cap then continue increasing as they do now

There's always been something fishy about the Judd deal..

Yeah that's true grazz, ive got no worries with players getting extra sponsorship deals and all that, but I think maybe those sponsorships should be kept completely away from the club, to the sports companies like nike, Adidas etc, and that NO sponsorship should come from the clubs sponsors (ie visy, balfours)

Thats a great place to start Toga, 100% spot on, the waters get to muddy otherwise.

you'd think he'll find out his punishment at the same time as Adelaide wouldn't you?

well it's not really fair if a club picks him up in the draft then he gets suspended think the AFL need to decide if Tippett will be able to play every game in 2013 before the draft

QuoteIt has now been adjourned until a yet-to-be-determined date, expected to be in December.

I assume that 'date in december' will be before the 11th, which is the date of the PSD.

Chopps

would imagine they ll know by the PSD as Toga said, wish this wasnt being dragged out longer :/

Bugger it, really wanted it done next week, sick of waiting.

Ironically if the Crows HAD taken Jesse White and pick 23 they still would have been under investigation for allowing such a shower trade  :D

Ziplock

lol.

maybe, maybe not.

can players refuse trades? out of curiosity?

like cause if tippett was like- I'm only going to sydney, and he could refuse a trade anywhere else and walk, then it'd be reasonable for adelaide to accept 23.
