It's that time of year when players/coaches/trainers/recruiters/administrators/board members etc. will be leaving the club. This thread is to aggregate and keep track of the changes. Thanks!

The fact this thread is still empty is a joke, club making zero changes after that shit season (yes I know players wouldn't be gone yet but off field staff should be)

Shows lack of plan. Panic mode. The club should know that 2-3+ players on the list won't be there next year regardless of how trade week goes. Weak as piss.
What if we get a bag of chips for McHenry though?

we already have a plain smith
Couldn't care less that there's been no announcements on our out of contract players. What I do care about is that there's been no announcements of any off-field departures.
It’s like we wait to see who gets better offers elsewhere and then wait even longer to announce the internal hire.
Agree with some of the above, surely after the year or years we’ve had there is one person we are confident enough to let go having planned their replacement?

Departures will be announced in the usual way:
As late as possible and in the final paragraph of a release highlighting another glorious victory from our women's team and the latest drawings of our new training facility

Quite a number of clubs not involved in finals have not delisted any players.
If they have had their exit/review meeting, what are we waiting for? None of our players are going to be picked up in a trade.

By text message ?
Probably dependent on who comes in via trading - any of ANB, Cumming, Lukosius, Rosas and then many how picks they're planning to take at the draft

Any posters need farewelling and thanking for their services? Or would that just be mean?

But surely there is at least one we could say farewell or are they waiting until after the Best & Fairest/Club Champion function?
Yeah I did wonder if they were waiting until after the B&F to start

But surely the players would already know.
Interesting that Brodie Smith's hasn't been announced. Why the delay? Or is he going to be rookie listed.

Thank you Nicks for your service to AFC.
Best of luck for your next adventure...

Announced .. not sure. When he spoke to the media after the exit interviews he was clear he was contracted next year and was planning to stay play on
There's no rush to move him to the rookie list, if that's the intention. Historically the club has left those moves pretty much to the last minute
A few of the out of contract players interviewed at the same time more less said it was a case of hurry up and wait

Look I never enjoy being the least pessimistic person in the room but surely there is no clear benefit to announcing these things earlier than they need to be?
This seems highly logical, what is the benefit to the club of announcing now?
