This is really great news, I'm really impressed with all 3 of them!     

[georgies31]

They won't be getting 500k.  They'll get 350-380k.

You really think Cotch and Jack will be on 350-380k??

I do they understand there in twilight of there career.

[Gracie]

$500K for 22 games is pretty similar to $350K for 15 games. So depends on how the club plans to utilise them through 2023

[Andyy]

I wonder what they're getting paid now but they wouldn't be on a lot to go another year. Probably what $300k? Wouldn't expect full seasons from them either maybe 15 games each.

Would be pretty disrespectful to offer them 300k. At least 500k each I would say.

No way mate lol.

They've been well paid during their careers, earning up to 800-900k/year at times.

This is just play money to them now. They enjoy playing and mentoring kids. Club should be reducing dependence on them by keeping them to 15 games or so.

$300k is reasonable and appropriate. If they want $500k each I'd be quite reluctant. Both are a decent injury away from retirement.

So we have lost 2 mids this year in lambert and edwards. Caddy never played anyway.
Looks like we have a player in sonesie.
Can Graham walk into an inside mid role ? Cotch would have 1 year left at best.
Dusty if he plays on won’t have much midfield time left in him.
I would say we need to recruit some quality mids if we are gonna ignore RCD and stack who both have the capacity to play midfield IMO.
I think we can rely on balta and Miller to hold down our defence with gibcus coming through as well.
We need some big forwards ASAP. That’s gotta be a priority.

Inside mids and key forwards !

[the claw]

Sheesh there is some nonsense in these threads.
Right at this moment Cotchin is our second best mid behind only Prestia. The last time i looked JR is one of only FREAKIN TWO KPF'S we have and is still going at two goals a game.

If we pay em on worth and output then they will both continue to be well paid.
Pardon me if im wrong but werent Trent and Jack two of several players who took pay cuts to fit others in. Hmm a word comes to mind its called culture.

The Tigers have enjoyed a busy period of re-signings in recent weeks but still have some critical calls to make come their off-season. Trent Cotchin and Jack Riewoldt are yet to know their status for 2023, while youngster Riley Collier-Dawkins, Jack Ross, Maurice Rioli Junior and Sydney Stack are unsigned.

Off-contract: Jake Aarts, Mate Colina, Riley Collier-Dawkins, Trent Cotchin (unrestricted free agent), Will Martyn, Bigoa Nyuon (unrestricted free agent), Jack Riewoldt (unrestricted free agent), Maurice Rioli, Jack Ross, Sydney Stack.

I think the following will be fortunate to have a contract next year:
Aarts, Martyn and RCD. Include the 4 retired players that's 7 changes to the list. Add Bauer and we have 6 open spots. Draft 3-4 and bring in 2 via trade should do it.

[Andyy]

I'd be moving on Aarts, Martyn at a minimum. Biggie might be worth keeping as depth.

Cotch 100% re-sign. Jack I think will go again while Bauer develops more.

Aarts - Keep (1 year contract - put back on Rookie List if he isn't on their already, depth player @ VFL)
Colina - Keep (1 year contract - leave on Rookie List developing)
Collier-Dawkins - Trade/Keep (trade for 2nd Round Pick to GWS/1 year contract if no trade)
Cotchin - 1 year contract on $350,000
Martyn - Delisted
Nyuon - 1 year contract - put on Rookie List if he isn't on their already.
Riewoldt - 1 year contract on $350,000
M.Rioli - 3 year contract on $250,000-$350,000
Ross - 1-2 year contract on $250,000-$350,000
Stack - 1-2 year contract on Rookie List

Miller, Cumberland, Pickett - elevated onto Senior List.

Stack, Nyuon, Aarts, Colina - put on Rookie List

Next Year - 2023
Castanga - Delisted
Cotchin - Retired
Riewoldt - Retired
Aarts - Delisted
Collier-Dawkins (if on the list) - Delisted
Nyuon - Delisted
Grimes - (may) Retire

That will be 5 players off the Senior List and 2 off Rookie List and with Bolton's contract ending, we need to lock him in long term! So Cotchin, Riewoldt and Grimes's salary will go to him.

Any players from Essendon we would consider trying to bring over ? Could be a few players looking to get out

Can't think of any tbh

[The Machine]

Harrison Jones in the right environment might be worth investigation.

Sam Durham & Mass D'Ambrosio, both know where PRO is

I’d take their Ruckman Draper, I like how he goes about it.
I’d also look at Zach Merrett and 2 metre Peter.
