Thankyou Fraser, you have provided the St Kilda fans and club with a lot of joy and entertainment over the years, and if the Magpie game was your last it was a pleasure to be there to see your finale

surely we owe him this much...he is on a base contractausfatcat wrote:plugger66 wrote:What is interesting is because his last game was in the ones he now gets paid match payments for as long as he is out.

really? Are you positive on that?
I know if you retire because of injury you 50% of your last years contract.
If that is correct and we have the room in the salary cap I am all for it, nothing worse than a employer being miserly when there is no reason to be.
If you injured in a senior game then you continue to get match payments until you come back. As he was put on LTI list after a senior game you would assume the same principal applies. This doesnt effect guys who dont get match payments which would be most of our top players.

I never said that at all. I was seeing what people thought. I am happy for him to get the money. Why should I care as long as they are in the salary cap. I will always stick up for the players and say good luck to them what ever they earn.Bernard Shakey wrote:So plugger66, are you saying that we should have just given him the arse?
Is this in accordance with current AFL policy, or is it under the outdated WorkChoices legislation?
We have had a Fedaral election in the last six months.

Real Footy wrote: St Kilda is unlikely to promote a rookie for Gehrig in the short term, as Andrew McQualter was promoted following the injury to Matt Maguire and the other rookies are either unfit or too raw for senior football.
The player most likely to be promoted would be Robert Eddy, a quick midfielder, but he has a calf injury and will not be fit to play for several weeks.
Unless you are on a fixed contract you do not get paid playing the seconds. It was said that G was on base and match payments so he wouldnt get paid in the seconds.saintly wrote:nup doesn'r worry me.plugger66 wrote:What is interesting is because his last game was in the ones he now gets paid match payments for as long as he is out.

he was palying on base payments this year anyway. besides, from my understanding. he would be paid the same amount if he played in the reserves.
