Permission to Train List

Which part?

I should have just posted what Dazzle did, I meant the best 22 part actually, we have moved on, Tyson, Vince, Cross and possibly Michie would be ahead of him in the queue by a mile

Well the best 22 part may have been a bit strong since i haven't seen him in how many years, and as mentioned, he was a bit of a liability. But if he was somehow reformed (a big if) he wouldn't be competing with any of those four for a spot. He'd slot in to the forward line, where we could certainly use a bit of flair.

We are clearly not wishing to show our hand with our permission to train list. Last year we lost Hannath after he trained with us. Don't think we would devastated to lose Jetta.

Carl Peterson is a talent. If his head is in the right place (it wasn't when he was delisted by the Hawks), he'd easily be in our best 22.

As long as he is nothing like Cam Pedersen.

[Young Dee 1,303]

Given that the Suns and Giants have to begin cutting down their lists we might be able to pick up a few youngsters that have flown under the radar (due to injury or just being on such talent packed list).

Wouldn't mind delisting Nicho for someone with a grain of potential like Weller.

Don't think we were devastated to lose Hannath particularly, either, from a purely football perspective.

One thing I would like to see is a way of picking up 'undrafted' players after all drafts are over.

This would be after the Rookie List is scrapped, so in a couple of years, and what would happen is that a club would leave the last two positions open after the National and Pre-Season Drafts and would have give fortnight contracts to players to train with the team, at the end of which you would choose two from then or from other teams 'train-ons.' Or you could leave a position open for later in the pre-season in case of injuries etc.

The player is simply signed and agrees to a contract acceptable to them.

If you are a kid you get through the nat draft (where there is a automatic 2 year contracts for those in their first year nominated), and through the PSD (where you can name your own terms), you can then go and accept a 'train-on' contract with your choice of team and accept a contract that is acceptable to you.

I think this is one of the next steps, we have given quite a bit of power to delisted players and 10 year players and fringe players who have been at a club for 8 years, I think it is time to give some power to the speculative teenager (and to the recruitment staff that wants to pick the right player and not waste anyone's time...).

I think its safe to say that Nev will be taken as a rookie. He would have to be the best available when you're starting to get into the third or fourth round in the rookie draft.

Similarly, if nobody takes Weller in the main draft, you would think we would take him with our first rookie selection.

Maybe you should get back out of the sandpit.

Excuse me?

Any news on other players training with us?

[DemonFrog 1,356]

I get this is what happened to my footy career, I did not give myself permission to train!

The AFL must be the most regulated sport in the world.

Oh now there needs to be more regulation in LG

As we need to stop people raising the level of their land.

the issue is not regulation per se tbf, its sensible regulations and not nonsensical red tape, buckpassing and quasi-legal dithering
