Despite clot, Tigers want Sam for three

http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,23619711-11088,00.html

Despite his illness the Tigers still wants MacKinnon for a 3 year deal . Hodge also said to be on standby if Thomas decides not to return .

I doubt Hodge is on stand by

Also that is a hell of an agent that can get you a three year deal when you will miss a heap of games because you are on blood thiners to avoid blod clots giving you a heart attck or stroke AND you have bad knees AND you are on the downward slide in your career.

Rumour is Sam Mack wants around $210k a year, is this too much??? Is this grossly underestimated?

$210k a year?
seems to have majorly re-negotiated his asking price.
rumour (and i stress- rumour) was that he was getting close to $400k here is brisbane.
if he wasn't unhappy and the bullets and sam no longer on good terms, then i don't think brisbane would've had a problem paying him $210k a year.
interesting times ahead.

Sam should finish his team rotation and go to South Melbourne; to complete the loop so to speak.

I have no idea why Melbourne would need Mackinnon considering how good Dave Barlow is. Melbourne basically have a top notch team that doesn't need changing; unless of course "winning titles" is getting boring and they want to knock it up a notch.

Considering the salary cap scenarios in this league; how could you afford 210k on the Tigers team. Last time I checked (which was a bloody long time ago) wasn't the cap set to something like 750k?
