Sydney have an unlimited salary cap though so paying out Mitchells contract won't be an issue.

Fantastic. Everitt was having a great season too.

I'd love Tom Mitchell but I am not sure about 400k per season.

I may be wrong, but under the AFL rules, we don't have to pay the full contract of that 400k. Sydney would be responsible for whatever we choose not to pay of that 400k. Carlton has been stung in the past with this rule. We have traded players to other clubs and still been forced to pay out part of the contract to make up the difference. The Fev trade was one of those cases, I think we were on the hook for 200k total and it happened in the trade for Corey McKernan. The players we traded to North, I think we had to pay their contracts and then when we traded McKernan we were also forking out cash for his contract. So while he may be contracted and if a trade did occur, we may only have to pay say 200k season 1 with Sydney footing the extra 200k. That could work it's way to us paying the full 400k at the back end of that contract.

That is interesting hmmm, but yeah like MM said. Sydney would be stupid to do a trade in that situation.

[Mailman the 2nd]

More than the financial aspect, because I don't think he'd get a significant amount more than 400k at another club, its up to Mitchell to decide.

If he's fed up with Sydney, they'll probably trade him, otherwise I couldn't see him leaving

[RiOtChEsS]

definitely keen on Mitchell, for what we r paying daisy 400k is a steal

[Spite]

Footy show preview says a "gun Carlton player has sat down with another club"

Anyone know who it is? ...I can't think of any Carlton guns anyway :P

[Mat0369]

It's either Waite or Jeffy. Both are out of contract at the end of the season

[Vinny]

Yeah probably Jeffy I reckon.

Apparently we are in talks with Higgins, thoughts?

He'd be like 400k a season and is 27 next year.

[kilbluff1985]

Jeffy is a gun? Who knew?

[Mat0369]

Yeah probably Jeffy I reckon.

As I said in the Dogs thread



The player is Waite, he met with North a couple weeks back when playing in the VFL then came out and destroyed them.

Robbo has also put off contract talks until the end of the year.

Fev is also Bill's event manager on the pub crawl.

[Mat0369]

And it looks like the pub crawl is already off. They couldn't make it out of the first pub. Fev gave Purple the pressure point move which was brilliant.

[elephants]

Jeffy to WCE... ;)
