Harris at Odds over Contract Talks

[kruddler]

True.

All the other examples you offered, Judd and Franklin, were already at the top when they got the big dollars, that is how it works performance before pay.

Promises are hollow, performance is real!

re Judd and Franklin, yes they were on the top of their game.....but they got PLENTY for their outside of football endeavors, which was the point.

re Taylas football output, this season was a poor showing, but Tayla is a 2x Carlton leading goalkicker, and 2x All australian. She is the best contested mark in the game, and has about the best bump in the game too. She is not without her talents, even if it was not on show this year.

FWIW, i'm not sure if anyone even read the article i linked, but Eddie McGuire was saying she deserves it, and the AFL should fit some of the bill for it.......in the same way that the AFL funds superstars going to the northern states.....like Buddy Franklin for instance.

From our end though, i would make it heavily incentivised, Give her lots of bonuses rather than guaranteed cash. If she wants it, and think she deserves it....prove it.
