Bye, troll. Go and do something productive with your life.

 

[Duckworth]

Colyer locked in, Carlisle and Z. Merrett the next signatures.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Starting to get worried about Carlisle why hasn't he signed yet?

They've lost all the pens at the HPC and Sheeds can't be arsed to head down to Officeworks and pick some more up.

 

[eth-dog]

It's March ffs. If it's July/August I'll start worrying, but the season hasn't even started yet.

He's trying to find a Christian stationery store, probably.

He will sign after he kicks 1000 goals in round 1

Fixed.

I like to keep my expectations under wraps. Keep that lid on...

 

[Jade]

I have a sneaking suspicion he has a cunning and devious plan to start stealing journo pens.

Hes no doubt looking at his options. Wouldnt be suprised if were into him.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Hope not will be another massive blow to the club especially after loosing Ryder.

 

[JR95]

Highly doubt it.

Loves Essendon and the club loves him.

Very unlikely he is going anywhere.

 

[daffo]

Carlisle won't go anywhere. I'm assuming the club had more pressing matters to spend their time on the last couple of months. I would expect Carlisle to re-sign by Anzac Day.

I'm half expecting it tomorrow.

 

[Seagrave_Holmes]

If I understand the OP correctly, there will be lots of youngsters coming out of contract this year.

I like this because of your av.

 

[Jade]

Carlisle could have taken the bitch option ala Ryder last year.

Not concerned at all.

Yeah I reckon your on the money here Jade re Carlisle.
The guys that might go I reckon are the ones on the fringe like;-

Merrett, Jackson
Hams, Will
Browne, Alex
Pears, Tayte
Gwilt, James
Kavanagh, Elliott
O'Brien, Nicholas

Merrett, Hams, Browne & Pears might get another 1 year deal or something, but I reckon Gwilt, Kavanagh & O'Brien really need to make inroads this year or it will be their last.

 

[eth-dog]

Gwilt and Kavanagh are ahead of all 4 you think will get renewed. Terrible call.

 

[Jade]

Gwilt and Kavanagh are ahead of all 4 you think will get renewed. Terrible call.

Not sure about Kav, but Gwilt is fringe best 22 in an outstanding backline, would happily keep him on if he keeps it up.

The only player that will get as many games as Kav in the first group is Merrett.

 

[Bombers36]

Kav has been with us for 3 years for a whole 7 games, was going to leave at the end of last year but no one wanted to pick him up so he remained on our list by default. 90% chance to be gone at the end of the year.

Gwilt could be OK but lets remember he was cut by the Saints and seemed a bit below par on the weekend. As someone else said here - plenty of good defenders in the team or coming through.

Pears & J.Merrett would have more currency than Gwilt or Kav at any other club, and Hams and Browne more upside I think. But thats just me.

Kavanagh has also been one of the most impressive players during pre-season. If he delivers on the pre-season he's had I guarantee he'll be at Essendon at the end of the year.

Gwilt is better than Pears. He was fine on the weekend, Gunston had 5 minutes of good football, but other than that Gwilt blanketed him and also was solid on the rebound.

Pears would have zero currency. Right now he's behind Hooker, Hurley, Fletcher, Gwilt, Carlisle and Steinberg for a key defenders spot. You clearly overrate him, his injury woes have him almost guaranteed to be delisted at the end of the year. Kav has outperformed Merrett during pre-season, as well as Hams and Browne. So all in all, you're wrong.

I'd be stunned if Jackson Merrett got delisted. Not that I rate him all that highly, but it would be a quick fall from grace.

Kav has been with us for 3 years for a whole 7 games, was going to leave at the end of last year but no one wanted to pick him up so he remained on our list by default. 90% chance to be gone at the end of the year.

It wasn't that we wanted to let go of Kav, he requested a trade.
