Am I right in saying that FA Compo is not guaranteed
The notion that we automatically get pick 13 for Gresham is not a fait accompli- there is a magic formula that the AFL applies and no one knows the exact numbers
Also, if we get a FA ourselves it can effect the Compensation we get for Gresham - ie/James Jordan

Re: Free Agency Compo
That is completely correct.
If we are trying for pick 13 or even a pick at the end of the first round for Gresham then Jordan is off the table.

Re: Free Agency Compo
Clubs can find out from afl what compo is before agreeing to match deal or not for restricted.
750k to 800k min 4 years gets r1 compo - seems a big stretch for Gresham obviously
If Gresham left and we wanted Jordan then we swap late picks or ship them a 4th rounder as free agency compo is limited anyway - clubs do this to keep good will

Re: Free Agency Compo
No one seems to know exactly how the AFL works out free agency compo, hence, some media types refer to it as the secret herbs and spices formula.
The list changes for 2025 have begun, always an interesting time for an avid supporter.

Re: Free Agency Compo
Opportunity for AFL to look after us or f*** us.
Will be interesting to see which way they go.
We usually seem to be the team that is used to issue warnings to the competition.

Re: Free Agency Compo
If we do want Jordan (and if he picks us as several clubs are interested in him) he is just swapped for a late draft pick as the Dees would not be generating anything useful as FA Compo to them anyway.
