But we are happy to pay fringe players who dont get a game $400k a year. More than happy to pay the extra $200k for someone who will make a contest and can take a legit pack mark. Also has good skill for a big fella.

My expertise on salaries now may have diminished over the years. Seems a lot to me but I'm not sure on what the TPP is or Min, avg, max a player can go now days. Maybe it's not excessive?

I like McStay but i'm not sure he fits a position of need. Would he make us better? Yes, but what happens to JUH? Assuming Bruce plays, I think we can spend the money on a KPD or second ruck.
For mine, McStay is more a forward.

Time to get the big Chilli a proper ruck partner and make the next two years count.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.

Agree. Key defender and ruck/forward are absolute necessities (have been for the last 2 years). Draft the best pure forwards, these types tend to come in and make an impact earlier anyway.

Goldy is old but very durable and hasn't lost any athleticism. Some will say once bitten twice shy after getting Martin but Goldy is a different type and is a proven aerial threat up forward - his skill set would compliment English nicely in the short term.

Summed up perfectly. Good player but unless he is a good enough defender he doesn't quite fit our needs.

If we don't address it at the end of the season it will be another missed opportunity. With Marra and Darcy just needing some time to develop a shorter term fix could work.

I'm a bit out of sync with most people regarding Daniel and while is is a terrific footballer and one of the best decision makers I've seen at the club he is one player we could cover.
Happy we have signed them both though.

Only because we played him in the wrong position.
I think he should be where McNeil is and feeding the ball to the forwards.
He is wasted deep in the backline.

I tend to agree, he could really cause some havoc up forward.
As a back man we have some others that could play a similar type role albeit not to Daniel's standards.
He's a brilliant decision maker.

For me no thanks. We took a risk with Martin and hasn't really paid off. Appreciate Goldy is more durable, but personally, I would love someone that is more long term.

Re: List Managment thread (For 2022)
I’ve been a huge defender of Daniel but he’s having a down year. I’m happy to pay him but one of our highest earners?
