No 600k gets you Betts, care to name a player on 700k or more?

It is a bit speculative to be rounding out figures like this when nobody knows, Betts is listed in media as getting $650K. Daisey is listed as up to $700k, Murphy gets a matching contract as does Gibbs allegedly ~$600k. They are all basically in the same pay category.

It could also get you a Tyson Vickery or an aging Chris Judd, the variations are extreme! Given the increase in the TPP in recent years, Grigg would be getting 80% of this!

The best players are getting the lion's share of the cap. No way Grigg is on 500k, that's Waite money (though Waite isn't exactly going well).

He doesn't handle playing against his old team-mates, he may never be any good against them, some players just cannot deal with it!

Agree 100%.
I noticed it the first time around, his mind seemed to be miles from the game, he was better last night but not by much.
He just can't switch off from being their team mate by the looks of it and the Collingwood players play to it, I noticed Swan having a joke with him last night.
Pissing in his pocket I call it.
Let's hope he comes to terms with it before we ever have to play them in a final, or in a game to make the finals, but his last month has been good.
The only thing in this world worth more than a hill of beans is the Carlton Football Club.

Grigg was on $300K+ four years ago!

I thought it was 250 but a bunch of that was to entice him over. Maybe he's got a small increase but 500? It is Richmond, I suppose.

Agree...thought the skipper tried hard and put his body on the line and copped some treatment....didnt have a big night but he wasnt our worst.

If some of our bigger bodied blokes followed his and Simmos example we would be a lot better off, at the moment only Rowe looks like he is really up to it.

Cloke backed into packs a few times, Casboult, Everitt, Watson take note!

I thought that Murphy tried his guts out and ran himself into the ground attempting to get us over the line.  Missed a gettable goal (not the only offender there) but was held every time he went anywhere near the ball.  Can't understand the grief he is copping ATM... has been a greatly improved and relatively consistent player c.f.  the early part of the year.

The fact that he is the main target for tags says plenty IMO; the only player other sides rate.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

Agree, Murph is the least of our worries.
Reality always wins in the end.

Sadly for Murphy, his role is to oversee the development and protection of our kids. If he can play into his 30s then he may see success as captain.
