has decided to seek other opportunities to extend his playing career.

 

[chachi11]

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.

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.

 

[Port2Power]

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

 

[jac147]

Always had a soft spot for Tommy Clurey, so how does a Magpie B & F in 2024 gets shown the door about two weeks after award night?

Agree with you re Scully however Marshall just didn’t seem to be very interested in playing for the 2’s.

 

[Duckimus Prime]

McEntee very lucky to survive didn't feature in any of our finals

He played in the Qualifying Final and kicked the goal that gave us the lead in the second quarter.

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.

Fair enough - really liked Tommy

 

[Ford Fairlane]

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.

 

[Powerade 08]

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

 

[Shane_Mag]

Hope Clurey finds a spot on another AFL list. Was a solid defender just fell out of favor with Ken.

 

[Port2Power]

He played in the Qualifying Final and kicked the goal that gave us the lead in the second quarter.

Ah yea he did too against Geelong my bad

 

[Us against the rest]

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.

Yeah I could never understand when we we crying out for that tall defender we never played him, may be something else going on there, who knows.

 

[agmsy]

If someone signs Clurey as a DFA, do we still have to pay out his full contract, or would we only pay the difference (if any) between what we owed him and what his new club is offering?

 

[dirty2]

**** being a key forward in the reserve's... Your on a hiding to nothing.

Think he did well considering we were shit.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

At least we have Rory Atkins

A B&F at SANFL level is just that- it is a level below AFL. Tom has been a good solid defender at AFL level but his best days are gone. With likes of Aliir, Zerk Thatcher, Burton, Logan Evans, Williams and Ratugolea above him in the pecking order Tom was only ever going to be a depth player from here onwards.

Thanks Tom Clurey for 124 solid games, sorry to see you go.

McEntee very lucky to survive didn't feature in any of our finals

I am disappointed that we didn't persevere with Scully but Kyle Marshall is no surprise. McEntee still has a year to go on contract whereas Marshall, Francis Evans, Narkle and Scully are out of contract. I suspect that these guys were not expecting a contract extension.

I am not surprised by any of these delistings as we need to make room for those traded in and whoever we pick up in the Draft.

 

[Portology]

If someone signs Clurey as a DFA, do we still have to pay out his full contract, or would we only pay the difference (if any) between what we owed him and what his new club is offering?

Given "[he] has decided to" you'd hope the new club has to take on all the $!

I think - if he doesn't get an offer we pay him out for next year (or re-rookie him??) anyway.

 

[raptalia]

At least Hugh Jackson is hanging on.

Kyle Marshall was always a project but just didn't show enough development I guess. I thought he might get another year.

Yes, Hugh Jackson showed a bit until he was injured. Hopefully we see him on the park next year.

 

[PowerLil]

Someone (can't remember who) wrote that Scully would likely be delisted if Hinkley wasn't remaining. Anyone write that?

 

[jakey]

Evans and Narkle were preferred over McEntee as we got deeper into the season. Statistically and subjectively both were better in their time on ground. But hey some ****wit gave Jed a 2 year contract.

 

[PatientMental]

Not surprised about any of the delistings

Disappointed we didn't pay mcentee out too and keep a scully, but it must flag a desire to go to the draft for talls.

Atkins took one of their jobs, I'd be filthy

 

[backtozero]

What sets McEntee apart from Narkle and Evans? **** all. I would have kept the other two before him.

 

[danman69]

Someone (can't remember who) wrote that Scully would likely be delisted if Hinkley wasn't remaining. Anyone write that?

Was probably the chewman but he will backtrack on that statement when Hinkley remains
