The Luke Ball and Brendon Goddard tactic

That worked well in the past

I think it’s the reason Ross left too? The fact we failed to table an offer?!

[SaintPav]

Good opportunity for Jade to test the market. Club might match the offer, it might not depending.

Not a bad deal for Gresham if you ask me. I wish my employer would give me this type of opportunity.

[B.M]

To me it just says

We don’t really want you, so test the market

Did the same with BJ

Goddard was desperate to stay, reality is Pelchen wanted to get rid of him!!!

Apologists at the time tried to convince themselves and others it was a good move

Deny it now though

[SaintPav]

Maybe.

It’s like a call option. Depends on the strike price.

Maybe worse if it's a low ball offer and the player feels insulted.
It's OK to keep your powder dry for a player like Gresh.
His view of his worth may not be shared.

Reports Ben McKay being offered $700K per season.

Ridiculous.

[B.M]

Who is offering him 700k

[CQ SAINT]

North Melbourne. In vain hopes someone will beat it.

[Devilhead]

Will 700k cut the mustard for North to get pick 4?

No doubt AFL will find a way

Totally ridiculous.....we used to have these things called financial cycles where the economy would correct itself, after inflation would come recession....not any more, the money machine now printing 24/7 and 365

Ben Mackay should not be getting 700k...but to put that figure into perspective, Doogs is getting 600k.

We shouldn't have any player on more than 450k.

Jack Steele?

Jack Sinclair??

Rowan Marshall???

If McKay is worth $700K them Dougs is worth $2 million.

McKay is a dud.

[realdeal]

If North get pick 4 for McKay then Saints should look foreard to a 1st round pick for Gresh if he leaves...

AFL, what a totally corrupt, compromised organisation.

Gresham won't get us a first round, we'll be lucky to get better than a late 2nd round pick.

The dude's disposal by foot is ordinary.
