salary cap pressure
So we are under salary cap pressure again with reports in the paper saying that Gilbert may be traded if the right deal comes up to release salary cap pressure.
How can we be up to the eyeballs again ? .. Its only 2 short years ago that Ball was let go which should have released a bunch of money and Lovett is not on the books either. We havent brought any new players of note in since then so who got the money ?
Is clearing room in the salary cap part of Pelchen's mandate ?

They'd be on enough to make a difference in addition to the other players delisted or fired in the past...I don't think our cap is in any poor position.saintly wrote:Bakes and gardiner wouldn't be that much, it would be the top 10 playerssavatage wrote:Not to mention Bakes & Gardiner wouldn't have exactly been on minimum wage either...
that would be the problem
goddard, hayes, reiwoldt, fisher, montagna, kosi, etc etc
Even our beloved ex coach said we had room when he spoke of chasing a forward from another club not long ago.
If a Farrey Ray is on 350K (which I strongly doubt)....then cool, trade off - make room - no major drama.

It's hogwash.
Someone who is in a tough negotiation is probably talking to journos in order to try and get the club to move someone so their client can get more money.
The club will have a large number of players on its list next year in their first two years of football, which will ease pressure.
And when Farren finishes top-ten in the B&F (again), you'll know why he's on $300,000-$350,000.
But as I have said in other places, anyone who wants out can go.

Question - Were you Strongly Considering Mitch Clark for St Kilda and do you want him at Fremantle
Ross - Earlier in the year I was advised we had a fair bit of money freed up at St Kilda so he was one we were looking at for that other power forward - ruckman . I really rate him highly and I think at 23 he's really ready to blossom. If you listen to the noise in the market and he's a West Australian, there's some interest there

unless we back-ended rieowldt goddard etc.
i think the answer is we are fine but we might be throwing it out there so just in case we get an offer for gilbo etc we can say its because of salary cap pressures.
just covering our bums i reckon.

I think the problem being reported, at least by Damian Barrett on Triple M on Saturday, was that if we submitted our 2012 list right now as it stands, we would be breaking the cap. Didn't say by how much though.
Contracts have been negotiated and signed with the assumption that someone would leave to free up space.
Or was it purely going to be based on getting Hayes and Roo onto the Veterans list??
But as has been posted, surely we haven't used up all of the space that Ball and/or Lovett would have freed up?? Not unless we've signed guys like Jack and Armo to crazy money.

Barret almost contradicted himself-
by saying the AFL had been in and although we were close to the limit- under or over the AFL have already signed off
Did he mention the Tigers?

Why would he mention that? Got nothing to do with being over the salary cap. And wasnt Barrett talking about next year?saintbrat wrote:Barret almost contradicted himself-
