Couple of points on the JAC situation:
1. Would the Tigers really want to enforce the HOA now? Why would they give a crap about JAC if he's already signed with us? I asked a few of my Tigers mates and as far as they're concerned, JAC is dead to them. They have moved on and couldn't give a stuff about him anymore. Why would the Tigers as club care anymore? If anything the Tigers may want to let him play with us because it would make the Storm weaker.
2. Does JAC even want to come to us next year? If the Storm have upgraded his deal and he's getting paid around the same cash he'd be getting at the Dogs, would he really want to leave the Storm, where he has a real chance to win another comp, to come to us and battle for a top 8 spot? I don't see the appeal in that from his perspective
In 22 I'm expecting a top 4 finish but not next year. If I was JAC, I'd wait until 22 for the cavalry to arrive (Burton, gun hooker, etc) and for the plodders to piss off (Lewis, Napa and co).
