Have just seen this article on Veteran's List changes.

It states: "The new rule does not require a player to be 30 to qualify for veteran status. The only qualifier is that he has competed 10 years of service".

By my reckoning Jamar has completed 10 years service (picked #6 in 2001 rookie draft) and thus is eligible to be placed on the Veteran's List.

This would open up an additional spot on our senior list, meaning we have to make one less delisting/trade to get our desired number of draft picks.

Thought I would throw this in the mix as I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere.

Changes our salary cap implications too. Intersting pick up there MW

Interesting. Somewhat assists the home club in free agency negotiations.

I guess we put Jamar on the VL?

Or do we?

We have so much cap space we might not want to.

Does give us an option though , one we mightnt have had. Adds to our ammo

Cheers for that. It wont be long before juice newton will be a Veteran.

You're on fire Cowboy! Loving it!

Imagine Juice on our VL, his salary as it stands would be about $42k per year, so putting him on the VL wont really free up any salary cap room!

If Jamar can be put on the VL, I'd seriously make a play for Goddard....NOW!!! We give St Kilda our 2 compo picks (that's all they will receive for Goddard if he goes to GWS anyway), which they can activate next year. Means they can have an extra 2 first round picks in next year's "super draft", rather than having to wait until 2013 when they can use their compo picks (assuming Goddard leaves at the end of next season). It frees up their salary cap issues immediately, without having to lose other players/take pay cuts.

Depends on how pi$$ed they are with us for poaching Misson, but surely we can approach it from the angle of "GWS are screwing every Club in the leauge, so here's our chance to screw them".

The rule doesn't come into effect until 2013 - so won't free up a spot for next year.

Zing! Nice.
