Assuming by ‘over-the-top’ you mean: could the Swans have got Buddy for less money or less years had they offered less (with Hawthorn withdrawing) then the question is unanswerable (at least by us, the fans).
But it’s not the right question.
If you make an offer to buy a house for which there is a great deal of interest, the other interested parties don’t match, and your offer is accepted, did you: (a) offer exactly the right amount? Or (b) offer too much?
You will never know. What is important though is: are you pleased, or even delighted, you gained possession of the house? Or indeed perhaps do you love the house and to you it is worth the price you paid?
