End of year delistings

Clark

Frawley

Byrnes

Evans

Nicholson

Strauss

Evans is contracted until the end of next year I'm pretty sure mate. But I agree with the others, and the addition of Blease, McKenzie (unsure of his contract status), Clisby and Tapscott imo.

Does anyone know of Roos' discards, who have gone onto become something? Terlich is a maybe isn't he and Hall left and still had worth at the Dogs, but i was thinking it's the kiss of death to be tossed by Roos? Also of those Roos has traded away, were there any big stuff ups? I'm thinking that some of these names bandied about here might seriously want to pull their fingers out soon as it's a bad black mark to have against your name.

Barry has just had his best couple of weeks - he won't go. Either will Blease but they should see if he's got any trade value. Think Tappy will be given more time too - coaches love hardness.

Clark (Ret)

Byrnes (Ret / not offered new contract)

Nicho - disposal / decision making not at AFL standard - turning into list clogger. Clisby ahead of him now.

McKenzie - trade / delist. I know he's a great soldier and clubman - but can't see him getting a game ahead of mitchie, kent, evans, toumpas, salem - disposal won't cut it.

Strauss - make or break year - out of excuses.

Frawley - if he decides to run.

Don't think they would make anymore than 5 changes.

Agree with most of these.

My take:

Tapscott- traded

Nicho- Delisted

Byrnes- either retired or delisted

Strauss- delisted

Blease- trade/delist

Mckenzie- trade table

maybe one or two young guys who will get the chop.

Schneider and Dempster?

Don't think we'll get anything for Tapscott.

Anyway, back to the subject at hand...

There seems to be general consensus that Clark (obviously), Byrnes and Nicholson will go the way of all good things.

The latter two have 13 rounds to prove the doubters wrong, I guess?

If Pedersen can do it, so too can they.

If Byrnes gets another contract then we are a dumb club.

haha, my thoughts also exactly.

But they could go for pick 50 odd, which would be good.

Strauss and Blease might garner some attention....

I thought Straussy had something to offer, but Nev Jetta has almost shut that door on him...

Never underestimate the stupidity of other clubs' recruitment teams. I mean, Richmond wanted Shaun Hampson for a second rounder.

Pretty sure we can get some decent trades for Blease and Tappy rather just outright delist them.

He signed a three year deal. He's been cruelled by injury, but when he has had a run at it, he's not particularly impressive in any one area. There's a little bit of Bail in him, but he seems to be on the outer at the moment.

Definitely a 2 year deal

Mind you, I saw Schneider up close when he was with the International Rules team in Ireland, a year before he was traded to St Kilda. The rest of the team shunned him because he was an immature, obnoxious little pest.

Talented he may have been, but his character was highly questionable.

I think Straussy is a rookie option, after all this time.

I think Blease could get something around P45 ish, or maybe the P42 this year, or maybe the P50 ???

These sorts of posts make me feel so old. I've seen this post 1000 times before. Different names but same content: every year some fresh faced poster wants to put the 38th-44th players on our list on the trade table.

The other clubs do not want our garbage any more than we want theirs. Nobody is going to trade anything worthwhile for Tapscott or Blease. Unless they have a miraculous change of form, their AFL careers are drawing to a close.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    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
