We got 7 list spots already


Sent from my iPhone using BigFooty.com
Not quite. Perhaps forgetting we added 2 mid-year?

So, where we are at now:

Senior List: 32
Rookie List: 5
Rookie B: 2 (including Owies, who cannot stay on Rookie B list)
32+5+Owies=38, max=42. So 4 places now free, along with one free spot on the Rookie B list.

Waiting new contracts:
Senior List: Marchbank, Setterfield, Honey, Cuningham, Fogarty, Ed Curnow (6)
Rookie List: S Durdin, Cottrell, LOB, Boyd (4)
Rookie B: Owies, Akuei (2)

Some discussion a few weeks back that new contracts were imminent for Cotts, LOB & Boyd, but haven't seen confirmation.

May hold off on further changes till trade period now.

Stocker has enough pure talent to make it in the AFL, unfortunately never worked hard enough, didn't want to embrace a team ethos

I hope at some stage the penny drops and can still carve out a career
Based on???

In fairness I wouldn't embrace our team ethos either...it is shitful.

As keenly observed by my 12 year old, Stocker was first to fly the flag for his team mates.
 
I'm not disagreeing with you. I just don't understand how our development can be the primary cause. Surely you draft psychologically resilient young guys who are self motivated and self driven for success? That's almost my number 1 criteria for drafting a player because if they don't have that, talent doesn't matter.
Do you seriously you think you can find 100% psychologically resilient, self motivated young 'boys' driven for success at 17/18 years of age...in the me me, I I facebook meltdowns, safe space, words will now break my bones era?

You have lofty hopes my friend.

I think clubs hope these kids turn out that way.
No professional psychologist could give you those guarantees

Unfortunately just flying the flag isn't enough

Hanging his teammates out dry way too many times

Compared to?

If we're delisting players for this alone then we'd still struggle to have much of a list.
 
I'm so p1$$ed right now.......we have spent 20 years looking for the next athletic Kouta and still have learned nothing about natural footballers.
I thought Bossy was better than that but here we are. This is a kick in the guts and to think who we just re-signed....FMD. I need a decent break over summer.....

Unfortunately rough on Stocker, but I can understand the rationale for his delisting, his body and unlucky run with injuries let him down.

List spots are at a premium These days, and we have to pragmatic, if not ruthless about these tough decisions.

Hope he does well at his new club
But Stocker FFS?

I had 6 players that would likely go - being;

Fogarty
Cuningham
Williamson (Still on the list?)
Newnes
Philp
Hayes

And another 4 that were unlikely, but really should be cut, with;

Carroll
Curnow
Plowman
Setterfield

I'm gobsmacked that Stocker gets cut, and other who have shown nothing but average performances continually get gifted games.

Stocker wanted a three-year deal, we wouldn't stump up.

He'll be at North next year, Clarko is a fan.
If so, don't know why we wouldn't have held out till trade period. Even if it was a 4th round pick for him, better than nothing.
 
Again...based on?

Probably whatever the Coaching panel and list management team base their 'stay or let go' decisions on..
The fact is we can all speculate, but really, other than a a select couple, no-one here will ever know.

Well, 3 of those are gone - Willo, Newnes & Hayes. Philp is contracted next year. Fog & Cunners we're waiting to see...

Carroll ? I am betting the club is banking on him having a breakout season next year.

Maybe the club is not finished with delistings yet btw

Possibly, same with Ed (whom I love - but list management requires tough love), but I know I wouldn't want Ed in a side picked for a GF due to his continual turnovers, and that was before he had 12 months out. I guess 6 spots is enough anyway. Setters and Plowman need to be depth and go no where near the side except in Dire, Dire, Dire emergency.
