2017 Off-Season

Love how you idiots are lining up to pot him but the fact remains I can’t see too many other teams where he doesn’t play, and he is a lot of teams best forward.

550k is fair enough.

This year he Kicked more than Cameron, hooker, Roughead, Lynch (GC), Stringer and the same as Patton

Really? I honestly don't think that highly of him, i'd take those blokes named above (except Stringer) ahead of him.

Honestly can't see Jenkins being a key leading target up forward for any side. Not to say he couldn't i guess, but just given how i've seen him play over the past two years..

Well I would take those other guys too. My point was he gets potted when his contributions are actually very good. If he was the main forward he might kick 40 goals in a year which is still a decent output.

I actually can’t think of a team who he doesn’t make their best 22. Maybe GWS, but they could definitely play him ahead of lobb based on recent form.

Yes he is tall and heavy but he just isn’t a bash and crash player. I wish he was too but he isn’t. Shows how much we missed McGovern I guess but that’s another discussion. He is valuable in the role he plays to our team.

It's like a feeding frenzy on the crows in here!

The crows losing the GF seems to be better than you're own team winning for some.

We must be doing something right to create so much reaction from other supporters!

Trust me, my team winning IS the best thing in football and nothing is better than that, think of me any other way and you're wrong, completely wrong.

When that isn't going to eventuate I then default to my dislike of Geelong, North, Adelaide, Sydney and the rest. That's my order.

How come you hate Geelong so much Booney?

At the end of 2000 you took Paul Koulouriotis from us, I'll never forgive you lot for that. Never I say. Never.

You are right Benny, he's not an awful player by any stretch.

But you're struggling to keep other players and he is one prominent example of maximising his contract off one good year.

Maybe Jenkins is worth $550k, but if that is true, logic dictates Lever is worth > $600.

It's that imbalance which people are picking up on.

[Lightning McQueen]

I was racking my brain for some sort of stupidity of player transaction, you nailed it there.

I can only imagine how many posts you'd make on here if one of the teams you really disliked lost a GF or was losing a player then!

Everyone is worth more to the clubs trying to pry that player away.

Don’t forget Jenkins reportedly had a 5 year 750k contract on offer from Brisbane

[bennymacca]

Also 193 goals over the past 4 years is a bit more than “one good year”

At a guess that would put him close to top 10 in the afl over that period.

[morell]

Yeah but he signed after he kicked 60+. Which was his peak by a fair margin.

He's a 40 goal a year sort of campaigner. Nothing to sneeze at, but probably not who you would want to be in your top few highest paid when AA calibre young stars are leaving.

If you need stupidity you can count on me.*

So Levers manager has just taken on the job of Collingwood's list manager lol

[LMA]

He would be good for them, allow Reid or Howe to play forward

[Booney]

So Ned Guy is no longer negotiating the Lever deal, wonder who is?

Mr Lever

[mots02]

that will test out his ''Melbourne or into the draft'' stance.

Pick 6 and Scharenberg suddenly on the table for the crows?

[Booney]

Smells a little now. Collingwood come in as a later player to the Lever deal in the days after the GF, Lever's manager becomes Collingwoods list manager....

Stinky.

Collingwood had 2x1st round picks on the table. ( Interesting as they only have one )

I thought the same... definitely heard 2 x 1st rounds from Collingwood but knew they only had one at the moment.

[Dutchy]

I dont think AFL would sign off on a deal for Lever to Collingwood now

Surely Fasolo won't get them a first
