How much would you recommend paying fringe players in the side who can be replaced by the large number of quality youth pushing for a starting gig at Peel?
We've offered contracts and if other teams come hunting for our players by paying way over market price, we can't invent room in the salary cap and ruin our total player payments for years to come.
In any case, Acres and Logue are little chance to leave for the small pay increases they can get by heading interstate. The money made on a new contract would likely be wiped by relocating and living interstate, let alone wanting to leave a side competing as we're doing while surrounded by family and mates in their home town.
Please re-read
this thread and my comments about Colin Young throughout. That should tell you all you need to know.
