From Herald Sun HOW TO FIX FREE AGENCY/TRADE PERIOD 1. Shorten it. All the three weeks of trade period does is encourage clubs to delay and interfere. No club believes we need three weeks to get deals done. Adelaide delayed the Kurt Tippett deal so long last year their dodgy dealings were eventually exposed. 2. Separate it. Clubs won’t trade players until they realise what free agency compensation they receive. So have one separate free agency period, hand out compensation picks, then have a one-week trade period. 3. Have a combined two-week free agency and trade period but no compensation picks. Then clubs won’t have reason to delay trades waiting for compensation. Most peak bodies — clubs, the AFLPA, player managers — believe free agency compensation should be scrapped.
