Perhaps Daisy isn't as mercenary as folk think. Still, $350,000 odd isn't a bad pay packet for a bloke who is likely to be a depth player.
Look I'm sure he's a lovely bloke and like with Hendo in the early days being compared to Fev, the signing of Daisy will always be linked to the ill-fated signing of MM and the loss of Eddie Betts. It's just the way it is. Unless he absolutely kills it and drags us over the line in numerous games this year, that perception of him, that he's been a waste of $ with us, will not change. It's unfortunate but it's just the way it is.
I'd be busting my gut in the 2's to get a few more years on the 'lowly' amount of $350k too and whilst I'm sure he is genuinely a competitive person that will always put in 100%, the question is this - do we want him on the list? What does he add to our list?
