HAWTHORN believes its current best offer for Lance Franklin is a stunning $7.5 million behind Greater Western Sydney's six-year $2 million-a-season deal.
The Hawks have offered Franklin a deal worth $4.5 million over four years, enough to make him clearly their highest-paid player.
GWS is yet to formally offer Franklin a contract, but Hawthorn believes the package eventually presented to him will be as large as $12 million over six seasons.
That will include a $1.5 million per season football component, plus a potential $500,000 per season in a marketing/ambassador role from the AFL that can only be arranged after he signs.
Hawthorn could eventually be pushed to a fifth season for Franklin if it was the only impediment to him signing on.

But as the club privately concedes the massive gulf between figures makes it hard to keep Franklin, even premiership champion Shane Crawford has told the Herald Sun he believes he is gone.
The AFL confirmed yesterday the current compensation formula would almost certainly be retained this year, meaning Hawthorn could receive a pick as low as 20 for Franklin leaving.
Hawthorn's list management team is already scrutinising the free agency market.
They would be certain to make an aggressive play for a rival if Franklin departed given the $1 million salary cap hole it creates.
