I promise my thoughts partway through 2023 wouldn’t have done anyone any good.

Hello. BAD's started talking to himself.
What's he on per year avg? Does anyone know? I mean 1.5m per is excessive but if that drops down significantly for the remainder it's not that terrible. They've got salary to burn now, burn it. Opens it up for years down the track.
Assuming his salary does nose dive after next season.
If not well done McKay, you're helping keep those pricks out of the finals.
It would have put him around the top 30 paid players in the league this year. He is a middling KPD who is often injured and wouldn't be in the top 150 players in the game. Only Moore, Sicily and McGovern would be on more as KPDs, Weitering around the same. The likes of Taylor, Barrass, Andrews, May, Lever all on less than that (not allowing for the salary cap increases).
He was overpaid so Essendon didn't have to trade for him, nobody thinks he's worth $850k.
Based on a list the HUN put out this year, I'm sure it's not 100% accurate and they estimate players salaries in 50-100k bands but it's the best we've got and I believe it would largely be around the mark. I think the media have a fair idea on contracts, it's certainly not just guessing.
