Good call, I guess he is under so much pressure, so often, his errors will always be amplified.

May not have been any takers. Hasnt shown a lot and was a late-ish draft pick to begin with. Meaning clubs had already done research on him in 2016 and since then he's only strung 9 games together.

Elite for - Hit-outs to advantage.
This was the statement I was responding to in a highly non-linear discussion.

All good mate, wishing you all the best.
Last year we picked up Newnes this way. If a club is interested but the general consensus on valuation is minimal why would the other club offer anything at all, why not just wait for us to delist him. We'll know shortly, if he ends up being picked up by Geelong we'll know the fix was in.

Wishing the delisted players all the best.
Thanks for your service and happy sailing ahead.

From what I can work out we currently have 40 players all up so we can add another 4 to our list which I suspect will be 3 from the draft plus a DFA.

39 as of today.
36 Senior (incl Kennedy for now)
2 Category A Rookies (Honey, Cottrell)
1 Category B International Rookie (Owies)

Need a KPD, another KPP/ruck (Walshy's bro arguably) and whatever else....Narkle?
Can't imagine we'd take 3 kids in the draft....maybe a mature ager?
Small forward? Isaiah Butters (rookie) would be my pick if Samo says yeah.
Happy Kennedy and Owies kept on the list.

I was resigned to losing Owies when the covid ramifications were looking ugly a few months ago. He’s the closest thing we have to Eddie and is still very raw. Glad we have persisted.

Right now our list is at 35/3/1 and we know that the list sizes are 38/4/2
We should take someone like Henry Walsh (or another ruck) + a key defender in the draft with picks 38 + 48 to make it 37 senior players. A key forward like McCarthy can be rookied (a total then of 5), and that leaves us with 1 senior and 1 rookie spot. Do we use them in the pre-season SSP?
Given Essendon were looking at Kennedy, do we need to worry about them taking him for their primary list before we can rookie him, or has he accepted that scenario and he's protected?
I remember Lachie Young being offered a rookie spot and would've had an option to opt out at that point and be a DFA, but ultimately the Dogs offered a senior spot and were able to get something as a result. I presume Kennedy accepted our offer given it was mentioned in the release.

Possible but unlikely that a club would pick him in the ND.
It's an unwritten rule that clubs won't pick a player in the Rookie Draft if they're committed to stay at their club.
True, but there was no qualifier in your statement for contract status.

Is that inclusive of a rookie upgrade to the senior list for Gibbons or not?
So now we know list sizes and player payments for next year,would and could it be that hopefully Harry and Patrick sign their long awaited contracts.

Yes, I believe the TPP has shrunk by 9% from $14.5M to $13.1. But the players are taking a 3.5% haircut on their contracts.

Agree.
Their KPD‘s struggled in 1 v 1 versus Hawkins.
Allir should be strong and mobile enough to put up a better performance.
IMHO good move for both Allir and Port.
Surgeons these days are so clever...................
Hmm Mcreadie 9 games in 1 season of 4 years on the list. Fletcher 75 games in first 4 years, 17 games in his first season as a 17 yo, rising star nominee and premiership player.... Skinny arms yes.......

Bad luck for Polson.
Just not up to it.
Surprised we let Macreadie go as well... we are paper thin for KPD stocks now...
Moore being let go of was no surprise.
Philips unlucky to only have a short stint. Such is the nature of the landscape now.
Probably sure enough sign we'll use pick 38 + 48 at the draft now.
KPD and small forward or ruck/forward pls.
