Do you have a link to the article? I can't find anything on Google or the AFL website. Not doubting you, just trying to find the article you referenced.
From the article below:

"For instance, it would have allowed Adelaide to list one of Rory Sloane or Taylor Walker as a veteran for 2024 and opened up another spot on their primary list. The idea was designed to keep veterans in the game without sacrificing a list spot that a youngster may have taken, with the veteran’s full payments still counted in the salary cap."

There's a link in the post above
 
I dunno but I can't see him being best 22 at either club, especially with us with Keane getting a full pre-season under his belt.
He's a back-up for us... like this season whre he did play a few games.

Worrell plays regardless & can play either as 2nd or 3rd tall depending on opposition.

Butts hopefully back injury free.

Then Keane v Burgess for next spot.

So yeah, needs a couple of unavailable players to come into the side.

I'm not too concerned about Borlase. He wasn't in demand in his draft year so I don’t think many if any clubs would really be chasing him

I think he is lucky to retain a spot but bringing in a new player takes up time and resources so we are better to keep him.

He showed a lot but his inability to demonstrate AFL level fitness after 3 seasons on the list is kind of worrying.
 
We are the only club that has more than two first rounders outside of North ...

West Coast don't need pick #1, they only need pick #2.

If North don't draft Reid, they will never get him - they need pick #1.

Surely we can help North get enough of an offer together that they can get #1 - keep multiple first rounders - help West Coast get Curtin at #2 and have multiple first rounders - and we get a pick in the top 3?

We do not need our F1 as much as we need to move up this year.

Currently:

West Coast - 1, 23, 37 (4298 points) Futures - F1, F2, F3, F4
North - 2, 3, 15, 17, 18 (7873 points) Futures - F1, F2, F3, F4
Adelaide - 10, 14, 20 (3468 points) Futures - F1, F2, F2, F3, F4

I know points are irrelevant in this type of scenario - but I added them because they were there ... what if we got to something like:

West Coast - 2, 10, 14, 37 (5556 points) Futures - F1, F1(ADL), F3, F4
North - 1, 15, 17, 18, 20 (7034 points) Futures - F1, F2, F3, F4
Adelaide - 3, 23 (3049 points) Futures - F2 (WC), F2, F2, F3, F4

Who says no?
No
Port will pick up Borlase

Honestly, I'm annoyed we've guaranteed him a rookie spot.

With only 55 or so main list picks, there will be good talents who are unselected and available as rookies. But we'll have no ability to take them because we've committed to Borlase, someone who's not going to be no more than a middling backup.

How is it a problem, unless you're saying we've run ourselves short on list spots? Many posters identified the earlier errors and you vehemently disagreed with them, looks like you've finally worked it out.

We don't have a shortage of list spots.

We've already opened up a few spots, and can still move players out (Sholl) and players onto the rookie list (Hamill).
 
I doubt they use up a senior spot to gazump us. On the other hand, I can see a team like Hawthorn or North who desperately need any kind of defensive depth using a senior/rookie spot on him before we can.
I don't really see any club sprinting out to grab someone who's maybe the 41st or 42nd player on a list.

There would have been some mild interest shown already, surely. As an uncontracted rookie, they could have made an offer and just got him.
