Re: Confirmed Trades - 2024
The AFEL need to seriously rethink this approach. It was meant for marquee players so clubs got something decent back in return. That is absolutely not who Battle is or Ben McKay for that matter. If they want to reframe it to a “help shit clubs” compensation then cool - maybe if you finished in the top 4 you don’t get comp, if you finished in the bottom 4 you can get band one, and everyone else just sucks it up with a band system that is based on transparency. Eg weighted 25% contract ($ and years) 25% last 3 years B&F results 25% career games played and 25% competition equality.
