Suckling is another, there's been plenty over the journey. I yearn for the day the clubs call them on it and they get suspended for 2 years.

They really should increase that penalty.


Or they could simply enforce their draft tampering rules.

Does the suspension ban them from registering at any football club in the country, or just to be draft eligible?

If it's the latter, I think there'd be kids who'd be happy to sit out the 2 years, study and pick up a cheque from a VFL/VAFA/WAFL/SANFL/etc club. At that point a club is probably going to back down and let them have their way, while bad mouthing them up and down the industry to affect their future wages.

If the above case is a regular concern, bump it to 4-6 years. Put their career properly on the line.

We have changed our minds again and its all about Jeremy Cameron again....


http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/jeremy ... 7249965124

THE GWS Giants have re-signed superstar forward Jeremy Cameron.

The All Australian key forward will instantly join the AFL’s rich list on a five-year deal which will earn him more than $4 million.

Cameron rejected the overtures of a host of Melbourne clubs who were circling and an offer from the Adelaide Crows which was even bigger than the one he signed with GWS.

If Adelaide could afford to offer him over 1 mil a year on a 7 yr deal whilst still having to re-sign Paddy and Sloane.....they know one of them is gone. They just re-signed Walker. Surely they couldn't afford re-signed Walker, Paddy, Sloane & 1 mil a year for Cameron?
