Do we still pay Clurey if he's "seeking other opportunities"? Sounds like he's probably been offered to be picked up as a DFA elsewhere.

It's like deciding what would be better out of a Shit Sandwich or Shit on Toast.
In all honesty though i think Atkins is the best of those 4. And he is providing depth in the opposite end of the ground.
As soon as we picked up Richards, keeping in mind SPP is back, it wasn't looking good for out of contract Evans and Narkle.
McEntee already had a contract for next year.

Opted out indicates otherwise IMO. He must have a contract somewhere. I maintain it's a bit insane how much we wrote him off, he was a pretty good key defender.

Im annoyed at the decision both Scully and Marshall are project players 3-4 years. Late picks like these two need time to develop.
I would be happy if the club delisted them next year if they showed the same progress or went backwards in terms of output.
McEntee very lucky to survive didn't feature in any of our finals

Not sure Scully will play SANFL next yr anyway from some whispers I've heard
I've got no issues with those five guys be delisted or looking for better opportunities.
Agree with you re Scully however Marshall just didn’t seem to be very interested in playing for the 2’s.
Scully is very stiff. 200cm+ young tall will naturally take a few years to get up to speed. He was tracking just as you’d expect/hope.
Finlayson or T. Marshall will need to spend some of preseason down back. It might be good for Todd- he can punch some forwards in the back of the head instead of being punched himself.
We’ve lost all our TB reserves- K.Marshall, Clurey, McKenzie. I don’t want Lukosius being chopped and changed between CHF and CHB. Walsh has exceeded expectations but I don’t think he is AFL ready yet.

He played in the Qualifying Final and kicked the goal that gave us the lead in the second quarter.
There must be something else is going on with Scully.
At the start of his draft year, some people had him number 1 overall.
That's a pretty big fall.

Will Snelling and Jack Trengove were delisted the years they won the SANFL B n F too. The fact they've won that award normally means that you've spent the whole year in the SANFL, which spells trouble.

So only the one surprise in Clurey.
Sounds like they have a confirmation he will go somewhere else which decreases the salary we have to pay him.
Does position us interestingly for the draft though. Gives us a 5th pick which it felt like we desperately needed given how many delist targets we have for next year. We should be able to take a rookie now, probably Rome Burgoyne. We also near certainly will need another key back at the draft too. I also presume Walsh will go back to defence after playing the last part of the year up forward.

At least Hugh Jackson is hanging on.
I was hoping Scully would get another chance as he showed a bit as a second ruck.
Kyle Marshall was always a project but just didn't show enough development I guess. I thought he might get another year.

Scully left for Atkins could come.
Makes sense

Obvious changes. Walsh and Moss will come on quickly without the other talls in defence. Both very competitive
