I get that 707 and the 'principles' in theory behind it all..... but we all know that consistency is not a strong point of the AFL.
"You get the feeling that like Monty Python's Black Knight, the Swans would regard amputation as merely a flesh wound."
No, they're not.
This was the AFL's way of shutting up Eddie Everywhere after he bitched about us getting Buddy.
Despite the fact that the AFL approved the contract in the first place... then went back and placed restrictions on it.
Seriously, this is a case that can go to fair trading or the ACCC and win.
Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
Like what was said before in this thread. It really doesnt matter if Buddy's contract is fixed per year. We can work around that by all the other flexible contracts with all the other players.
Essentially, every year we take salary cap, minus buddy's contract that year, and what is left is dividied up as the "working salary cap" for the rest of the list.
We can easily front load or back load year by year to meet say a Reid on $2m over 3 years.
No priority picks for Carlton or Gold Coast
McLachlan clarifies decision to reject priority pick requests
Yeah, well, Carlton have form "tanking" for priority picks... not that it does them any good, but they DO have form.
They can go to buggery.

Annie you caused the Big Footy Swans forum to go into meltdown. Someone read your Tippett "rumour" and posted it there. 😊
Hogan has requested trade to Fremantle, bringing Melbourne into play for May.
Tim Kelly becoming increasingly restless staying at Geelong, with West Coast being rumoured his preferred WA club.
Pruess likely to land at Melbourne as support ruckman for Gawn.
wouldnt mind throwing pedersen a lifeline at the swans purely as a backup, just has a morton feel about him as a backup to give mccartin a chop out when reid doesnt play all year again
Rory Lobb also on his way west. Jack Steven allegedly had a medical at Geelong. This feels like a trade period where a lot of players will actually move clubs. Hopefully some are coming to the Swans!
What, you wouldn't prefer Bugg?!!!
