Off-Season Closest to the pin comp

Remove this Banner Ad

No prizes, just bragging rights... Let's see who can predict what's going to happen by the end of trade/free agency. I've shared the things I've heard, but it all still needs to be played out, and deals done.

Here's what I think will transpire:

New contracts offered
Shaun Grigg - 2 years
Kane Lambert - 2 years
Ben Lennon - 3 years
Sam Lloyd - 1 year
Matt Thomas - 1 year
Jason Castagna - 1 year

Re-Rookie
Ivan Soldo
Jayden Short

Delist/Retire
Matt Dea
Nathan Gordon

Already Delisted/Retired
Chris Newman
Ricky Petterd
Chris Knights
Nathan Foley
Matt McDonough
Matt Arnott

Players In
Chris Yarran
Harley Bennell
James Aish
Matthew Kreuzer

Players Out
David Astbury
Ben Griffiths
Liam McBean

Should leave us with 3 ND (late round) picks and 2 spots in Rookie Draft (if my maths are correct)

Anyone else want to have a go? And NO bagging others thoughts/predictions... they're just that.

Also is this code for what is happening this off season?

No not at all... just me piecing together what I've heard and coming up with a list of what I think will happen. Putting my pills on the line and seeing what actually happens :)

Controversial, I know, but you trade what you have in excess ie tall kpfs.
It's not fashionable now but Griffiths is faster, and multi faceted and Tyrone would have better currency right now.
McBean, McKenzie and Elton are waiting in the wings.
 
Lol at everyone tipping us to get 3-4 star players.

You just know we're gonna end up with just Yarran.
Close barry me boy but how do you define stars as i don't class yarran as one. the thing is unless you play dirty and under the table like some clubs do you can only land one so called star as they will take the cream so not much left for other's.
 
What is the timescale for predictions, can I edit later?
