Message: [QUOTE="Ari Gold, post: 2664442, member: 1917"] Tiered concessions for one club players only, dependant on number of years at club at age of debut. So, a player like Luke Brooks, who debuted as an 18 year old for the Tigers and had been a junior, would, as far as I am concerned, can get a 50% discount. I'd be absolutely fine with that. Then, for a guy like, say, Matt Parcell, who was never really in our system, would only get a small concession. They would be the two extremes, but I'd only apply it to one club players. So guys who started elsewhere and left in search of an opportunity would never apply, regardless of how long they stayed at the club. So a guy in that situation, say a Jonathan Thurston or a Hinchcliffe, I don't think they deserve want. Sure, the Cowboys and JT are kinda synonymous with each other, but the Cows never brought JT through their system. Personally speaking, I'd consider it far less disappointing if JT left the Cowboys than if the Tigers spine got broken up. Even if Milford is with us for 10 years, I don't think we deserve a concession for that. Whereas Manly, who have had their halves since debut do deserve it as far as I'm concerned. Essentially, by making concessions one club players only, it hurts rich clubs MORE because they can't buy the talent. [/QUOTE]
