Message: [QUOTE="M.B.88, post: 3090848, member: 8473"] Because he's already signed. Croft isn't.. It's next year we come into some serious coin and Fifi knows that, and probably has a verbal promise of how much of that will be guys But that's the thing... Croft would come here for less knowing he can get some of that coin too for his next deal.. Problem is, Broncos need to buy Croft's contact. He can't get signed on a downgraded feal... Usually if a release and transfer is mutually beneficial for both clubs, they come to an agreement of terms and how much each will pay based on who would benefit most from the swap. Melbourne are refusing to chip in for it, and I can see why.. Makes sense for them. They have more to lose by letting him go - he's an injury or even a good preseason away from being back in their 17. They too might be coming into a war chest in 2021. Who else might retire from the game? Exactly Broncos would pay for Croft in full but essentially can't due to the cap. I could imagine it'd be pretty bloody frustrating to be Seibold knowing a half decent 7 is all you need to make a good go of it, and there's one available at a great price - but you're stuck paying for busted horses sitting around having an occasional run on the training paddock.... Knowing full well you can't just turn them into glue and solve all your problems! All it would take is just the one more retirement and we're in with a good chance next year. Just one more...
