I'm pretty much in line with everyone. Tom was a good player for us, but now is a good time to move on, with no anger on either side

Analysis would only be possible if something that made sense had been said. As it did not, analysis is not possible. Please recalibrate your response so that appropriate analysis can be undertaken.
Not necessarily true. If the triggers relate to extensions after year 2, then compo won’t be impacted.
FA compo scheme being so opaque gives the AFL a chance to wangle an outcome for us. They have been very reluctant to give us anything in the past, but this time seems slightly different. We’ll see. If we get Oliver they’ll probably think we don’t need any justice…

Gollant doesn’t have a defensive bone in his body, and can’t close down space with other worldly acceleration like McAdam.
Teams need to defend us differently with McAdam and know where he is at all time; I love the way Gollant attacks the ball in the air, reaching at the apex, but he’s a very different player
Thanks Tom - at one point I thought you would be our Captain however, sliding doors Yada yada best of luck with your remaining playing days.
Surely Brisbane can do what they did with Daniher years ago and structure the contract to get us a band 1 compensation, it's not like they have a first rounder to affect them. 3 years at $850K and then restructure the contract for 5 years at $600K.

Sorry that’s only allowed if it benefits a Victorian club.
We’re risking draft sanctions just by having this post on our BigFooty board.

If only Doedee was Daniher. The only thing they have in common is that they were both injury prone prior to going to brisbane.

Again, you've got to ask yourself the question why they would do that. It doesn't benefit Brisbane. It doesn't benefit Doedee. The only person it benefits is us. Why would Brisbane do something to help us out when they don't need to?
They would only do that if they felt there was something in it for them, such as being worried we might otherwise match their offer. But nobody in their right mind would think we're going to do that. So Brisbane doesn't have to do anything. They can just make their offer, let us twist in the wind for a while, and get their player in the end.
The only way we could possibly expect them to do us a favour is if there are other players being traded between the two clubs as well. Then they might be willing to throw us a bone to gain a favour elsewhere.

They wont openly give us anything that reflects compo for the goal disaster. I am sure we will get something but it will be behind closed doors
So many people on here use this abbreviation and many others use the actual words and yet that it doesnt raise any issue. My question is if Jenny was a bloke would you have made the same derogative statement regarding kissing the kids.
I am disappointed that Tom is moving on but he has been a excellent player for us. Whilst I am crow member I also take on Brisbane membership so I can get to the footy up. So now I will be able to watch Tom play footy along with Lachie (ex Glenelg) and maybe Lyons and Cameron. Just adds a little more to watching the games up here.
Its a shame to see Tom go, he has been a great servant to the club. Our defence has shown signs of being just as good as to whether Tom is their or not. Probably good for him to go where he would be better valued in a side that sees him as essential for them.

We will probably get a punishment for daring to embarass the afl by an umpire cheating us a finals spot.
Didn't St Kilda try to do something like this with Brad Crouch.
AFL said no.

I am going to miss him more on 5AA than seeing him play.
Missed a few games the last few years and I reckon our backline works better without him. Michalanney, Hinge and Worrell are a pretty good defensive interception unit.
A very good media guy, hope that is his future after Footy.

Don’t even need to do that. $850k x 2 years guaranteed then 1 game triggers for 3 years at about $300k. Years 3-5 aren’t counted because they’re not guaranteed.

This is exactly the kind of thing the AFL will allow for North to get pick 3 compo, but block for the Crows.
