“I don’t think it works,” Ed said of the plan to force high draft picks to sign contracts longer than the currently mandatory two seasons.
“We’ve seen this happen over the years and it just hasn’t worked.
“The only way for these things to work properly is to have an unencumbered draft so that you can get to it properly.”
The proposal came from an interview with AFL Commission chairman Richard Goyder gave to ABC radio on Saturday.
“Both the Queensland clubs have actually said to us, can we have longer than a two-year contract with our draftees,” he said.
