New Salary Cap Issues...

[sjt]

P.S You don't have to live at Glenelg to be able to go to Glenelg, for the night life.

LOL you've identified one of our negotiating tools...

Yep you earn more money out/down there at that club...but think of the taxi fares you'll save by living and playing here.... So you'll actually ahve more in your hand by playing at Brighton Rd

P.P.S You can live at Glenelg and not play for Glenelg.

Ahh you mean like half the South Adelaide team

Up that hill, past the old refinery, cross beach rd, find a park. get strapped, train for two hours, shower, back in car, cross beach rd, go past refinery down cement hills negotiate Brighton rd - yep an attractive way to earn footy playing money - how is the petrol bill....

[sjt]

Could be a very interesting situtaion for all concerned. The CEO of the Bays at the time of the alleged breach is now responsible for the administration of the competition as a SANFL General Manager....

And Norwood players taking pay cuts because of administration incompetence - how does that work?

Yes, Darren Chandler instigating an investigation of his previous club and his previous negotiations, a publicity dream for the SANFL - not.

The Glenelg boys last night (Rowey and Cornesy) had a real probing interview last night with a Glenelg administrator , lol. I think it was Gary Metcalf.
What a farce. A week before the minor round starts Glenelg still have room in their salary cap of $360,000 for their whole team, to attempt to recruit Hall. Every other club is struggling to keep under yet they've managed their finances so well that they can recruit an ex afl listed, Best and fairest and Simpson medalist. They didn't have to pay their players the whole of the cap, despite being runners up last year.
Amazing financial management Glenelg.
As am Bays said, "let the SANFL investigate".

WELL SAID SJT, out of all of this you've hit the nail on the head.

"You can afford extra players when you miss out recruits...."

Sorry, am Bays I just can't believe it (not that, that matters), after also being runners up.

[sjt]

Actually perhaps a more pertinent question is what do you think Hall is worth ? What would a player of his calibre get paid, officially, per match ?

He's paying them to play he loves the club so much.

surely you posting this list actually weakens your arguement as;

couch, smith, donnelly wont play league
meyer is the standard payment for afl players
mills would be a good earner - comparable to probably bode
a grima probably comparable to rudolph

that leaves a gap of sherwoods 2008 payments not yet spent for 2009

That's right he barracked for them as a kid. He'll be playing purely to enjoy the night life of the bay with his girl friend.

Chris would want to enjoy the delights of The Beach House while it's still there.

LMAO

I think recent events demonstrate that "play for the love of the club" is utopian concept for your Mob Topsy....

[sjt]

I think he'll get offered a job there supervising the ferris wheel for a six figure sum, whilst his girl friend sells the fairy floss.

Yes, thanks to mr tuckey, we were found guilty of breaching the cap and were dealt with according to sanfl guidelines- did the crime did the time!I'm sure most people at the safc would offer a warm welcome to Brent to come down and visit at any time...... it would be great to catch up with him and his lovely partner.

Thanks to Mr Tuckey? What about the South officials who presented him with and signed the two different versions of his contract?

[sjt]

The bays should lodge their player payment ledger tomorrow before twelve noon.

2 Coaches and plenty of board members have come and gone since those days. Westies are not immune from salary cap breaches in recent times either ......

I think one breach by $5000 resulting from the absence of a GM for 6 months when Doug was sick is quite different to a calculated attempt to rort the system. I was just making the point that the blame for the breach shouldn't be laid at Tuckey's feet. The blame for it being revealed, perhaps yes.

You don't bite the hand that feeds. Obviously most players hold their end of the deal up with so few breaches officially coming out. He was of poor character....

Unless of course every club is doing the right thing....
