    Callan Ward Compensation Explained

    From the AFL Website

    Western Bulldogs - Round One selection (Callan Ward)


    The selection for Callan Ward may be activated by the Western Bulldogs after its round one selection in any one of the 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015 NAB AFL Draft Selection Meetings. The selection will be immediately placed behind the Round One selection of the Western Bulldogs in that particular season. (I.e, should the Bulldogs earn the right for selection 12, the compensation selection would be number 13, if the Bulldogs earn the right for selection four, the compensation selection would be number five etc.).

    Should the Western Bulldogs wish to activate the selection in the 2011 NAB AFL Draft, during the expansion-period Drafts, the selection would be placed at the end of Round One.

    For the selection to be activated for the 2011 NAB AFL Draft, the Western Bulldogs will be required to notify the AFL of its intention to use the selection by Friday November 11, 2011.

    For the selection to be activated for any of the years 2012-2015 in the NAB AFL Draft of that particular year, the Western Bulldogs will be required to notify the AFL of its intention to use the selection by the last Tuesday of that particular year, prior to the start of the Toyota AFL Premiership Season.

    The club has the right to on-trade its compensation selection to another club.
    If the club on-trades its compensation selection to another club, the selection may be used in that year's NAB AFL Draft Selection meeting, or in any other year up to the 2015 NAB AFL Draft.

    The lodgement of the contract offer to Ward by the GWS Giants FC means the club cannot automatically select another uncontracted player from the Western Bulldogs.

    I hope they keep the pick and use it next year. It will be around 20ish if we take it this year right?

        How is that Lame? What if we held the pick over 2 years and (knock on wood, just example) we end up bottom 4 in 2014 and end up with say, Pick 4? We would then get Pick 5, 2 picks in top 5 wouldn't be 'Lame'

          OK I'm utterly done. Tank, tank and tank some more and take picks 1 & 2 next year. Utterly pathetic return.
          Or - trade it back to the giants for pick 1 in the minidraft.

                Is that band 2 compensation? About fair enough. We finish bottom 6 next year (highly likely) and the pick becomes very valuable.

                I will be shattered and appalled if we do something irresponsible with this hard-won pick during this coming trade period.

                  Surely Ward is worth a round 1 and round 2 pick.

                      Agree.

                      We either use it as a bargaining chip in the 17yo mini-draft or we bank it... That's it.

                        With Simon Garlick having been very vocal in the media about expecting nothing less than band 1 compensation for Ward, where does that leave our reputation in the wider football public?

                          Great work Barry.

                          I just realised that we have to notify the AFL we are using it BEFORE a season starts.

                          If we on trade it, does the compo pick come after ours or the team we trade it to? If it's the latter we do some clever business like trade it 'back' to GWS. They are obviously very likely to last (or nearby anyway) meaning the pick could be worth pick 2 overall to them.

                            I think the public thought we were really stretching with that demand so I doubt it will hurt our reputation. Most of the public thought Scully wasn't worth 2 first rounders.

                              Completely agree.
