List Mgmt. The Contract Status Thread (as of September 2024)

Keilty is goooooooooone I reckon!

If so, why not this week with the others?

 

[Sellout Scully]

Contracts aren't worth anything anymore, doesn't matter how long you sign a deal players just move about willy nilly these days.

Not certain whether I should be excited. I guess I am. I’ve forgotten what Keilty looks like or what he does though.

Plays VFL

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

What the **** is a Keilty?

 

[Theo X]

And KK is a 3 year deal according to his manager

Wow, pretty risky deal for us for a guy with known serious concussion issues, hope it was on low $ but unlikely knowing us.

He'd be on a pretty low base salary, don't have an issue with it.

My thoughts on those out of contract this year:

Tim Smith (2nd year Rookie) - Needs to play 10+ games to get another 1-year deal. I like him, but he's not doing enough.
Declan Keilty (R) - Gone
Jeff Garlett - Gone
Nathan Jones - 1-year extension, no guarantee of senior football
Jordan Lewis - Gone
Sam Weideman - 2 year extension, not massive $. Prove yourself. Lots of triggers
Joel Smith - 2 years max. Still hasn't proven himself at AFL level (not his fault he's injured)
Billy Stretch - 50/50
Sam Frost - 2 or 3 year deal
Alex Neal-Bullen - 2 or 3 year deal (could be trade bait, but our only two-way runner)
Corey Maynard (Cat A Rookie) - Gone
Oskar Baker (Assumed, as a 2017 draftee) - 2 year exentsion
Josh Wagner - See Tim Smith
Jay Kennedy-Harris - See Tim Smith
Corey Wagner - See Josh Wagner
Jay Lockhart - 2 year extension. Won't be best 22 but seems good cultural fit and has a crack

And then no idea on Bradtke, Walker, Chandler, Dunkley yet

 

[dylan93]

What I'd do:

Sign: Bradtke (Rookie), C. Wagner (Rookie - 1 Yr, as much as I'd love to delist him), Lockhart (2 Yrs), J. Smith (1-2 Yrs), Chandler (Rookie), Kolodjashnij (1 Yr), Dunkley (Rookie), Jones (1 Yr), Baker (1-2 Yrs), Frost (2+ Yrs).

Trade/Delist/Retire: ANB, Stretch, JKH, J. Wagner, T. Smith.

Already Gone: Maynard, Keilty, Garlett, Lewis.

SWING THE AXE!

 

[demondavey]

What the fu** is a Keilty?

Someone that doesn’t play for Melbourne anymore

Corey Maynard (Cat A Rookie) - Gone

A good start on your list...

Very strong effort, especially as you put this up before June..

Young Demons’ deals announced

Melbourne has announced some re-signings ahead of next season

www.melbournefc.com.au

Baffled as to how the Wagners got extended, but ahh well.

JKH and Stretch's days look numbered. Offload them to GC with O-Mac for a 2nd rounder I reckon.

You need depth in any good team - that's what they provide. This year, when injuries hit, we had to throw people in who weren't ready / good enough / were being played out of position. I'm fine with them being retained, especially CWags as a rookie!

 

[ponsdale]

Four remaining out of contract: Frost, Stretch, JKH and Bradtke.
