Jacobs says deal is above board

CROWS ruckman Sam Jacobs is comfortable his three-year contract extension will pass every forensic test at AFL House while Adelaide deals with the fallout of the Kurt Tippett scandal.

Jacobs today spoke of his comfort in having the AFL scrutinise with greater vigor his new contract that keeps him at West Lakes until the end of the 2016 AFL premiership season.

It is the first player contract renewal the Crows have sent to AFL House since they were stung for their secret deals with Tippett, who is now at Sydney.

"That is something, with what happened with the Tippo saga, that we're going to have deal with," said Jacobs. "I have; everyone at the club has full confidence in us being on top of everything now."

Jacobs said the Crows had put integrity checks in place to ensure "nothing like that  (the Tippett saga) happens again".

"I think we will be double-checking and cross-checking everything now."

Jacobs today dismissed the jibes of his teammates from Twitter where they have declared he has banked $1 million a year in each of the three seasons of his extension.

"I am a local, remember," said Jacobs, a Yorke Peninsula recruit with a dig back at the interstate-drafted Crows who can command more money to avert the go-home factor.

Jacobs said contract talks started in December when his manager declared Adelaide was ready to offer a new deal.
