Pretty awesome additions and even if only half of them are true, with the kids they have got they will hit 2012 flying. Can see them being alot more competitive in their first season than Suns.

Then what would Melbourne get as compensation? It sucks the way this can happen.

Priority picks are a sham and should never have been handed out at all.

Demetriou keeps saying the afl clubs are business' now, well how about treating them like one. I dont know any other business in the world that cant pay their staff what they think is reasonable pay. All successful buisness' recruit the best staff from other other companies, should be the same in the afl.
Yes the big clubs get bigger but thats the way the world works we are not communists!!!!
Sooner they scrap this farcial cap the better
