I'm sorry but if you're drawing parallels from Michie and Magner, you clearly have little idea of the situation.I'll just bundle you in with the ignorant group who keep quoting; ' He's only played one

Spoke to a current player today , he said Mitchie will start at Casey. New players to come in to the team he thinks are : Cross - absolutely flying Vince - really good Tyson - doing well Hogan -

Some of the comments from Freo Supporters and how much they highly rate him.. ''Congrats guys, you just picked up a 150 + game solid on baller. I'm pretty devo ATM, but well done''. ''As I said earl

Yeah I reckon he may have been initially signed for 3 years.

He did get recruited with an excellent reputation despite playing just 1 game in 3 years for Freo, due to injuries.

Just looking at the key dates ahead then.

It appears that if Viv was only on a 2 year contract, he has until November 9 to sign a new deal or nominate for the draft.

Guess we'll know one way or another by then...

Yes, I initially had him as a 2016 OOC but, as I said, had word from his player sponsor he is OOC this year.

Yes, it makes me think he is not OOC.

So Grampa Terls is going round for another year...

May or may not, but when I look at the list he and Matt Jones are the only players I truly shudder at.

Rewind to 3 years ago.... there were probably 15 players we shuddered at. The list turnover and replenishment has been huge.

Both top 5 in the Bluey under Neeld.

Magnitude 8.6 shudder...

Picks 50 and 46 (which will come in a bit) combine for pick 32 (which will stay similar or ease out a bit) under the points system.

If we weren't playing on dropping someone back to the rookie list then I would've thought we might have looked to combine these 2 picks in trade week for 1 higher pick.

Unless if we caught on to interest from another club in stealing whomever we were to drop back as a delisted free agency, which could happen with someone like Michie or even Hunt.

Still think his last 2 games for us were impressive and showed he may have turned the corner. Glad he is still on the list.

Degrees better than M Jones and Terlich IMO

out of Michie Mones and Turnip id only keep Viv. Other 2 are list clogging and will go at the earliest opportunity . 2 easily identified persons for moving on next year imho

Deserves a contract over a likely list clogger in Ben Kennedy, or Hunt.

How can you put Ben Kennedy in the list cliggar category when he hasn't even played a game for us? Pretty silly to be honest, at least give the kid a chance to prove himself.

Don't understand why so many who complain about our depth want Matt Jones out the door so quickly.

He shouldn't be anywhere near the 22, but we have 40 senior list spots. Played 9 games this year and is a consistent utility type.

Happy to have him for next year, then reassess.

I dont have a problem with Jones being on the list next year. At worse he will just be an outside midfielder depth which will come handy when the likes of Stretch and Parish get tired towards the end of the year. Jones can come in and chop out for a game or two while our young boys rest up.

Michie offers more than MJones and Terls. It's about improving our overall depth. If milkshake, bugger and Kennedy push these guys out and our list improves, I will be pleased. They may well play differing roles in the game plan, but I'd rather the better player than the battler that rarely gets a senior game.

He was a key part of our win in Geelong this year. He's definitely ahead of Terlich.

Well, he plays AFL games...

I honestly don't know why they are just leaving a top 40 pick to be 'passed' on.

I expect another deletion prior to the draft or right after it.

As do I, but I highly doubt that it will be Matt Jones.

Matt Jones has limited time ahead of him at 28 , and will never be a match winner but i think its a bit harsh to put him in the same basket as terlich. He did a great job on enright this year and is a fair distributor around the packs.

Ideally he never gets a game but he's not as bad a depth player as some perceive

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
