Bock and Davis were never staying given what they were offered - and we tried to pay Tippett overs to stay. We were just dodgy as hell about it haha

JK wrote:Probably started back when the Hawks landed D. Jarman, so not a new thing (albeit that's a slightly different example). Would be interesting to compare the other interstate AFL clubs on the same thing. Port appear very good at keeping required players (Stevens and Carr - For different reasons - The only ones leaving that immediately spring to mind).
Brisbane have had their issues over the last 5 or so years, Freo did a great job of keeping Pav but not sure if that meant they lost other players as a result? West Coast?
Sydney with the COLA allowance and the 2 newest expansion clubs probably not apples for apples.

Correct. Adelaide have a reasonably widely known culture of flat payments. It's obviously worked, they're perhaps one of the very few clubs to have never bottomed out in the modern era.Dutchy wrote:It seems a set strategy not to pay big $ to individuals and spread the $ amongst the group. The $'s need to go somewhere so it must mean their below average/average (McKay/Otten) players are getting very well compensated for their standing in the club.
You could take from this strategy that they are happy to do this to remain very competitive in the competition, but possibly never go to the next level of success.

But the con to that it is... they've got the second longest grand final drought in the AFL.
If it were Port, I'd be hoping my club did absolutely everything possible to keep Lever, not just for his output, but culturally as well.

Other than Dangerfield (his balls belong to his wife) and Gunston the others in the end haven't been huge at other clubs, Tippett, Lyon, Davis (injury prone) and Bock.
Jacobs, Jenkins and Eddie in
