They've talked about replenishing the list and clearing the slate in one fell swoop in order to have more recruiting flexibility. I'm hoping that means having the full list quota as we search for additional talent for the next crack.
Based on his answer to the direct question on SEN the other day Bertrand has no interest in being on the board and supports those charged with making the decisions.John Bertrand is 74 years old, he'd be our version of Jo Biden.

None. That doesn't give us anything to trade with or salary cap space to pay one. What we need is beside the point. what we can afford is - NOTHING! Yes, it's poor list management of the highest order.As i have said before, please tell me which young tall forward has Buckley developed?
We didn't go after Lynch
Now failed to have a crack at Cameron
"We couldn't afford his salary" = extremely poor list management and planning.
Buckley can coach another five years and i would be surprised if he developed a young key forward in that time.
Can't say I've watched him closely enough, but he does some electric things. What's the issue with him?One of the worst footballers at AFL level I've seen.

I think that particular comment was about Matty Parker, could easily apply to Gallucci though!if we are talking about Galluci then I agree. apparently he has been injured a fair bit since he got recruited so maybe he might just needs an injury free run at it, from I've seen of him I always thought he was average but he has great burst of speed
What's the story with Matt Kennedy at Carlton? He's delisted, but Carlton have committed a rookie draft pick to him? Or has that rule changed?
If available in the national draft I'd be interested, a definite upgrade on Wills for an inside mid role, and age is on his side too
He just doesn't, he kicks a couple of goals but thats it for the year, I watched him vs us in 2019 when we were 1/2 best team in the comp, he was on the bench more than he was on the ground and he wasn't injured.Can't say I've watched him closely enough, but he does some electric things.

Why was he called 'Nuts'?I don't have much faith in our recruiters. From memory, the last decent key forward we drafted was Nuts Coventry.
Yeah some of them got delisted really quickly...Any DFA's have speed? Could use some of that...

Were better off taking a chance on a younger indigenous kid in the draft.

Pretty sure we decided it was Keane.You can only have two Cat B rookies, so one of Tohill or Keane is Cat A (side note: did we ever figure out which one was which?).
We don't have to go in with the full 44 players and, given the state of our cap and how heavy our top end contracts still are (despite clearing 1.5 mil+ of salary net for next year), I'd guess we wont be going in with a full list of 44 next year.
Yeah achilles are not the injury you want at any stage of your career. Not sure we can afford to nurse a bloke through a full season with list sizes now.Regarding DFAs, I heard on Triple M Adelaide during the trade period via Mark Ricciutothat the Pies were keen on Jordan GallucciPLAYERCARDSTARTMark Ricciuto

No idea of likelihood but speaking hypothetically he might be a cheap Stepho replacement in that forward role? Coming off a nasty injury though, Achilles rupture
Correct, his family called him that due to his large melon as a child.Dont quote me, but i recall reading somewhere once it was due to the size of his head?
Very keen on him.
Oh Lord.Might get slammed for this. I agree he’s not a need, but elite in the important areas for a defender.
He could release Maynard, Crisp or Quaynor into the midfield.
If he comes cheap, I’d be keen.

Got a bit of toe and uses it well. Could think of a few players on the list now that this bloke would be well ahead ofVery keen on him.
