Correct me if I am wrong, but if no CBA is reached (which appears unlikely) both OD & Demeco will be RFA's next year. I would assume that they would be tendered the max & we have a chance to match whatever offer they get. If I am right, then why should they do anything? He/they wouldn't be able to leave without compensation & they could get them cheaper for another year.
Do that, negotiate a "fair" deal for Dunta (not bank breaking), and live happily ever....for another season.
