A 3 year deal worth up to $1.8M with comp to North being only pick 32.

Based on reported dollars that seems low, so can only assume that the 3 year might well be heavily performance based.
This is confusing. Tigers getting pick 26 for Vickery who only has a 2 year deal @ $500 per year.

Something doesn't add up.

Looks like Wells deal might have a lot of performance incentives included.

Agreed on performance incentives.

It's a 2nd rounder following North's current pick. Vickery earned pick 26 for less money ($1m 2 year deal) but again it is still a 2nd rounder based on where the Tigas would nominally have their pick if they hadn't traded it away last year.

The Wells deal is $1.5 million over 3 years apparently. that doesn't necessarily mean $500K each year either. It could be heavily front-ended.

This guy is silk. Let's just hope he stays fit. Given our lack of a strong trading position getting a ready made of this quality as a FA is a great result which will immediately improve our efficiency and quality of ball use.

Yep with his age there will very likely be performance triggers built in.

Surprise, surprise Mr Cigar, journalists wrong again about 3 * $600k.

Also, Mr Cigar, Mr Cloke did not get back into the team until round 11 from round 4, suggest he was playing rubbish.

Re-iterate my thoughts from yesterday, rapt to get a person of good character to the club, that is a very very good footballer. Welcome Daniel and I look forward to you helping us contend for a flag in the years to come.

Over coffee the other day I discussed a plan we had
to play Swannie a bit down fwd where he could kick his 2 goals a game and feed off a couple more
Swanny could find that "sweet spot" where goals were created but fate changed that

Now we have a player who knows how to find the same spot ,kick those goals and Danny was well known for his goal assist ability

So that plan we had for Swanny its yours now Daniel
