Melbourne's delistings

I would have imagined the club would have waited until back from China to finalise it's list prior the draft.

Is there a known timetable for this?

    List lodgement 1 is in 8 days.

    That is rookie upgrades and delistings.

    Further dates here.

    Gold Coast have taken their 8 uncontracted players. they could have as much as 16 , but they elected to take only 8./ it is done. they were allowed one from each club. perhaps two if they sought approval or permission.

    No.

    how many deletions do we need

    cheney bell miller junior , guessing healey,meeson, hughes

    The latter three are on the rookie list so they should be separated.

    The former group are all gone. If we want to use picks in the 50s/PSD pick then we need to delist more.

    My guess is that 2 more players (maybe Johnson and McNamara) will be delisted, but picked up in our rookie list if they are not selected by anyone in the drafts,

    similar to what occured with Newton and Meeson last year. Is this possible? Is there a limit to the number of senior rookies on the list?

    This would free up our picks at 83 and 100 in the draft to promote McKenzie and Spencer, and leave us with picks 12, 32, 49 and 52 for new blood.

    I also see a thinning out of the rookie list - moving on Hughes, Healey, Meeson and maybe Newton.

    The difference is that Newton and Meesen were contracted and agreed to be rookied if not taken by another club first.

    Hughes and Healey should probably be delisted, I can't see Hughes playing again. Not sure about Newton, and come on lets give Meesen another go, Newton is looking more likely to stay after playing quite well (I think) in Shanghai

    good point. But i think we still have to find 2 extra points on our list, instead of using picks 49 and 52 for McKenzie and Spencer.

    Meesen has retired.

    The FD don't make decisions on players after one exhibition game.

    I cannot believe I have been put in a position where I have posted that about 5 times this week...

    For shame, Demonland!

    I have a feeling the FD would be comfortable about retaining Newton one more year on the rookie list if that's at all possible.

    Other than that, two players would need to go in order to allow us to use 49 & 52, the last of which we might optional at the ND and could be left for the PSD.

    How many are still out of contract. They're the problematic ones at this point in time.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
