Peel players will have their interviews when their season is done. Technically they're still playing for a spot
I'm not sure thats how its worked in previous years though, think some have known before they finished up
Maybe some ask for it earlier
edit: Like last year, we delisted Colyer, Wilson and Benning in August
Benning didn't play finals but the other 2 did

The Freo tax. We have to overpay/coddle these guys and hand out huge contracts so they don't leave.

This is like asking, how would you feel if we traded out Sturt, but got Pickett and Horne Francis.
You do it every day of the week, but it is very unrealistic.
Depends on which ruck is coming in with them.

Knobel or Reidy.
Then no. Reidy did ok against Briggs but I have no confidence of him playing a whole season and Knobel likely isn't ready.
Jackson can't do it all year either.
Adding on years to manage list shaping is pretty mainstream these days.

Darcy, 9 and 17 for Bolton and Warner.
I think I would do it. Swap Bolton for Pickett, and I would definitely do it.
Soldo is 28, he would ok for a few years. I think you try Reidy for a year, and then look at the 2nd ruck for other clubs.
You can find a serviceable ruck if you decide Reidy is not up for it.
Reidy couldn't last two weeks, he's not the answer. You may find a serviceable ruck, but you may not. Soldo or someone would be required.
I guess it depends whether the club thinks Darcy is going to take his career seriously. If it is more of the same then trade him and roll the dice.
I also think it's an easier decision if we think Knobel is a genuine prospect. Can cop losing some ruck dominance for a year or 2 if you think you'll get it back in 2026/27 onward.

We need more than a servicable ruck to take advantage of our midfield. We are in the top few clubs for clearances and stoppages which would no longer be the case if we are left with Reidy.
No use having good mids when you have no ruck to take advantage of them.
A fit Darcy has more value to us than current Bolton
That's why I'd trade him if he's not going to get in professional athlete shape. He's gun when he's fit, but he simply doesn't give himself the best chance of being fit. That needs to change now.

Update: baker to WC 
You won’t like the price for Bolton.
Feel like maybe a 3-way once Barrass is sorted.

What is the expected price?
I don't think I could handle that. Maybe if they were paying 80% of his salary.

Go back and look at the first game against Melbourne and GWS where Darcy monstered Gawn and Witts. We need him to just get fitter and over the knee injury.
