We will probably have to delist 6 or more of these players.Who's the list management team looking at?
 
Won't be delisted, but Hampson will retire and have an inkling Grigg might too.
So there's two .... and reckon Bolton will bolt for Fremantle, that makes three.
Miles is long odds to be there and will take himself and his second ressies best and fairest and Liston Trophy to either the Bulldogs, Roos, or Gold Coast.
My guess is Drummond will be gone and Lloyd also, who I can see retiring from AFL and keep playing VFL somewhere.

I think some are more likely to be traded given they have talent but just can't get a go at our club due to list strength.

On the weekend one of the commentators said our playing bottom 6 was better than Geelong's


Not sure which ratings, but somewhere Geelong had seven of the top nine rated players on the ground, but eight in the bottom nine rated players - that's quite a gap. I believe McIntosh was the only Tiger ion the bottom nine.

McIntosh looked like he was playing for the Cats he was so bad :D

Hampson and Griffiths are the two obvious ones, then it gets tough.

I really like the way Drummond goes about it. Just unlucky with injuries and is now sitting a fair way back in our queue of flankers and wingers.

Can’t help thinking we need to shed a small forward. Or maybe two. I think Bolton is the last in the queue just now.

Miles and Lloyd have been great servants of the club and fulfilled a need in the past. But, we know they aren’t getting a whole lot better than they are right now and right now, they aren’t best 22.

Drummond, Bolton, Miles and Lloyd could probably all offer something to an AFL club, if they take any contract put in front of them. It’ll make me sad to see them go.
 
Hampson Griffiths easy outs. > 2

Then trade Miles and maybe Shai >4

Drummond and Lloyd > if we need 6

Draft this year is fantastic to about 10, then fairly solid to mid 20's/30, then drops a bit. So compared to last year the top end is significantly better, good draftable players similar, then is gets worse as we head into less draftable players.* So it might be a draft where you want to get really good picks or just have a relax. Wouldn't be shocked if we took only 3 or 4 players.


* According to people that know what they are talking about re drafts. Which may or may not include this particular poster.
 
Hampson, Miles, Griffiths and possibly Markov and Drummond are the only ones I see being delisted.

Just a small suspicion but I think Shai will be heading home to WA, some noise around Conca as well (although I'd assume we'd be pretty keen to keep Reece).

If other clubs show interest, I suspect Ellises/Lloyd/Townsend may request a trade.

Retirees, possibly Grigg? I still think he's got a few years in him though, and think he could be quite influential at a different club with a younger list like the Lions or even back to the Blues.
 
Think there will be 5 delisting / retirements this year
Hampson,Griffiths,Miles,Lloyd,Drummond with possible trades of maybe Townsend,Cellis,Conca

Not sure about Bolton , He is happy in melbourne and is dating Rioli's girlfriends friend and Daniel & Shai are best mates and joined at the hip apparently
