With the season just about over and teams already planning for 2021. This seems absurd to me that the AFL haven't given clubs a clear indication of what the next season will look like.

No longer a 0/10 in low effort, just a mediocre 4/20
I'd love a discussion surrounding salary cap just so I can understand how money is distributed between our players and what we can or should do when both cripps and Walsh (possibly curnow at some point too) are asking for some of the bigger contracts in the league, do we cut other players paychecks, are we holding out on money? How did we manage to have the same salary cap (excluding the cost of living growth thing to it) with the 2015 team to this team to the days of the fevolution? And how did we pick up judd when all we did was get rid of 1 young guy and 2 draft picks?
Something that bothers me as a blues support, I know we had sanctions 15 fucking years ago and the old malthouse dilemma but to think 90% of the blues are payed more than most of geelong or Sydney players (because of buddy, or danger, ablett, selwood) just because no one's commanded a large salary is outstanding. What happens when cripps has to re-sign on 1.8mil, is the rest of the team happy with their pay cuts to support this? Probably not. So if we have anyone or two people (Sam Walsh and cripps) come looking for million dollar contracts are we not fucked? Unless there's something so special going on at a club that most of the guys are willing to take 40-60k paycuts off their paychecks how do we honestly proceed with those two once in a blue moon bois?
To even think this team is using the same funds as the fev,Judd,Murphy,cripps,kreuzer,Betts, etc etc Years just blows my fucking mind, is polson getting more money than Heath Scotland use to get? like how the fuck is it the same same.
Edit: speaking of the Judd era, it just doesn't make sense that a team who's won 16 games in like 5-6 years is on the same team wage as say hawthorn who's won 70+ games in that time and were going through their massively dominant era. Sure it should make sense and it does until you look at players rather than club but seriously, fucking how.
Edit 2: what happens when one year a Carlton team has Josh Kennedy pre good times and the next they now have Judd; the minimum salary iirc is 90% so did Carlton just so happen to have 10% of their wage hanging around at the time to offer Judd or was Josh Kennedy on some money and we also stripped team members of money to give Judd a salary he'd accept over other teams? What even.
How does Richmond pick up tom lynch without stripping 90% of the teams pay (exclud

Hello fellow nfl fans, I’m currently writing my bachelor thesis about salary cap and how to potentially implement it in European soccer (WE NEED IT BAAAD, current system is FUCKED) Soo.. basic system of the salary cap is understandable , HOWEVER: Beeing on overthecap.com, I stumbled about some terms I do not understand.. I hope 🙏🏼, you guys can help. Active Cap spending: in 2022, active cap spending of the saints is nearly 260 million, nearly 50 million over the salary cap. How is that possible ? How can I understand the effective cap space ? Any other major things I should know writing about that ?
Help is so much appreciated Btw Im a Patriots Fan, so im so looking forward to packers vs pats SB 😉
65M cap space after cuts
19M for incoming class
1m Eddy 1m Coleman 1m Cole 3m LDT 5m Berrios 3m Mike White 3m Flacco
If we sign all of these guys at this rate, we will have less than 30m for free agent signings. Some of these guys might want bigger money. We might not sign with some of those players . 6M for keeping 2 back up QBs might be too much. The point is, we do not have big cap space like most people think.
Its not like "we have 55mil cap space and after cut we have 65M. We can sign 5 free agents."
We know we do more for our places of work aside from just seeing patients.
Yes, without us no patients are seen and so no money is brought in.
But plenty of people at our organizations who sit behind desks and DON’T see patients (so they don’t bring in any insurance money) don’t have their salaries limited by the state of reimbursement…but they say what we’re paid is?
Remember without us there is no money. And we do more than just see patients.
The money is there, along with the many excuses to not raise pay.
Edit: this applies to large chains and hospital systems and other big organizations. I know for small businesses the struggles are likely different
