What an ordinary comment.

He’s not being offered another contract - so delisted

I doubt he plays on 

[DubDee 20,527]

People suggesting as many as 10 players getting cut or traded need to consider who we are getting in.  We have no good draft picks at the moment, not a great position to trade and the best state league players will be given to the bottom teams.

So players like JKH will certainly be on the list next year. I imagine T Smith will be as well. If Weed and Hogan both go down for example we need some cover.

So 4 kids in the draft, 2 casey upgrades. 2 players traded in (Pruess and Gaff) - yes i still think we are a chance at gaff

that is 6 so far.

Tend to agree

We've only really got ability to make one or two mid-level trades in and buy one RFA. Add 3-4 kids later in the draft and 1-2 State leaguers in and were looking at about 7 ins.

Assuming no big name trade out (e.g. Hogan)... I think this means

Retire: Vince, Pedersen, Balic

Delist: Bugg, Filipovic,

Trade: Tyson, Garlett

Question mark ?: Johnstone, McKenna, King, T Smith (has he got a one year ext??)

Then Lewis is safe and we need to  Re-Sign: Vandenberg, Kennedy-Harris, Kent and a few of the Question Marks

All the players listed above your last line have no future with us.

Delist: King & Filipovic (we got killed every week in ruck in VFL, especially if Preuss in they both have to go!)

That gives us 5 spots with retirements.

Sounds like Tyson trade likely that’s six spots, and as much as I like Garlett he will be another trade, making 7 spots available! 

Then Bugg to trade, or Johnstone or McKenna delist and we have 8! 

8 is plenty to trade, draft or deal, a very good spot to add into our existing list, with only one Tyson being in our preliminary final 22. Tyson best spot is inside mid and I’d put at least 6 in front of him (Oliver, Viney, Brayshaw, Harmes, Petracca, Jones) and could add Salem, and AVDB, maybe more!

Trading, delisting eight looks great!

[Diamond_Jim 11,727]

Looks like JKH will get another year given Bugg's delisting

Retire. Vince. Balic. 

Delist. King. McKenna  Johnstone (then rookie) 

trade or delist   Jkh   Bugg

Rookie delist. Foilopovic 

Rookie retain. T Smith Maynard

That’s 7 total spots. (6 main 1 rookie) 

trade possible. Tyson (tough call)

rookie upgrade. Keilty

Pedo Bugg Flopvic King McKenna all delisted

I think Pedersen is unlucky. He was a handy backup but understand decision. 

Johnstone lucky but might be delisted/rookied later

Next? Jkh and Tyson are tradeable 

[DubDee 20,527]

With Kent going we have 8 spots open on our list and its only 3 days since the season ended!  if hogan goes thats 9. No word about Maynard, Johnstone, Smith, Garlett yet

sounds like we will be very active in the trade/draft!!

Yep, sit back and enjoy the cheese.

[poita 3,573]

Good decision to cut ties with King, Filipovic & McKenna. 

I can't see any benefit to retaining Johnstone, even if his replacement is pick 100 in the rookie draft. Find the best available state league player and give him a chance on the list.

Kennedy-Harris & T.Smith survive only because we have badly mismanaged our list over the past two years. 

Garlett, Maynard & Wagner are lucky they have contracts for next year, particularly the first two. 

I would have kept Pedersen around until after trade week, and Vince would be better value next year than the bottom ten players on our list.

I thought the jungle drums were fairly strong that May would end up at Collingwood.

Imagine this:

Trade Hogan to Fremantle for Pick 6 and 5

Trade Pick 5 to Gold Coast for Steven May

Trade Pick 6 to GWS for Dylan Shiel

Sign Andrew Gaff as a free agent

Maynard is contracted, as is Garlett

I know but I reckon Jeff and the Club might come to an arrangement to free up his spot. His heart is clearly not in it anymore. We will probably keep Maynard I’d say

I now think May will go to Collingwood, Shiel to Hawks/Blues and Gaff to NM.
