Some people advocate that free agency should come with no compensation but I think that's to harsh.
However in some ways I think free agency should work the same as the father son rule.
Frawley is free to go to the club of his choice but the AFL decide whether he's worth a first round pick and so on.
Frawley gets to go to Hawthorn but they have to give up pick 19 in return to Melbourne.
This could lead to clubs losing a player for less than they otherwise would receive under the current system but it would also make sure top clubs can't just have a free hit of a player and need to judge his worth against the pick they would be giving up.
To me this is a fairer and better system.

It probably is a better system Swoop but it kind of contradicts the whole concept of free agency and having to give a draft pick up to recruit a player through this process in the first place.
Regarding Frawley, he's an overrated player who constantly butchers the ball and is considered lazy by many people. Maybe he'll thrive in a new environment but I'm glad we didn't pursue him considering how much money he was demanding from clubs who were considering to recruit him. _________________ | 1902 | 1903 | 1910 | 1917 | 1919 | 1927 | 1928 | 1929 | 1930 | 1935 | 1936 | 1953 | 1958 | 1990 | 2010 | 2023 | |

FA is about providing players with an opportunity to move, it was never meant to be a list management tool for clubs. |
