The Senior List Jigsaw Puzzle

[SaberFang 7,141]

So... within how many hours will these 3 be delisted?

There were rumours about the playing group being told "8 of you won't be here next year" after one of our worst losses. Who knows if true.

[dazzledavey36 48,694]

Gore could be around.

Toby McLean is one I rate extremely highly who may be there at around 40. Jack Lonie could be there, would be happy to get Nath Drummond here too.

Talls Dan Howe, Dan Nielson and Brenton Payne could be useful gets in this range too. Oscar McDonald could be around the mark as well.

Touk Miller is one id seriously look at.

[ChaserJ 3,961]

Touk Miller is one id seriously look at.

I'd have him going a bit higher, but definitely take him if there at 40.

Alex Neal-Bullen another one who could be around the mark.

Considering most the players that will be gone played stuff all games last year, it is simple.

Christ, we had about a dozen "worst losses"!

A post match thread on here, god knows where.

Was posted around the time someone said Strauss, Blease and Tappy had all been told in their exit interviews the club would try to trade them.

The Brisbane and GWS losses were easily the worst, but you're right. They're all terrible except the ones we almost pinched.

Each year for 7 years!

Jeez, we better start signing up those 2015 boys.

[All the Jacks 99]

With only Tapscott out of contract and deadline looming 31st Oct, i can only see him moving on and that will allow us 3 picks at the draft 2, 3. and 40, was hoping we could use pick 53 as well..

If Tapscott goes we will have 4 picks.

7 have gone so far and 4 have joined.

The Jetta upgrade will come in another way. Either LTI or a player going to the Rookie list.

There is no mechanism for this Jetta workaround. It won't happen.

He will have to be delisted and picked in the Rookie Draft.

[Maggot 1977 263]

I hope another 2 are delisted by Friday and JT is placed on the LTI. Great striving point for all the rookies to know that there is a senior list spot if you are willing to grab it Ala - Nev

[All the Jacks 99]

Jetta already on the players list (elevated) Lumumba, Garlett, Frost and Stretch to be added =38 please tell me i am wrong

We need another 2 delisted ?? Jigsaw is right

Who will have to be delisted? If it's Jetta I don't think he is on the senior list. If he is, someone then needs to be delisted and maybe another, for us to use our 4 picks. That is without a DFA or PSD 2.

[Redleg 37,548]

I have just looked at the club site and Jetta appears with the senior list and only 2 boys, King and Harmes, appear as Rookies.

So if he stays there, we at the moment only have spots for ND 2 and 3. If Tapscott is delisted that gives us pick 40, or PSD 2 or a DFA.

We clearly need to free up some more spots.

[Deespicable 2,539]

Jetta has been upgraded http://www.afl.com.au/news/2014-10-23/georgiou-next-demon-to-go

As a result we are in a tricky situation of having to decide whether to delist more players or just to waste picks 40, 53 and potentially a UFA or pre-season draft option like Port's Ben Newton which would be pretty stupid really given the lack of quality on our list now.

As a result I can't see us keeping Tapscott and it is in our interests to delist one other contracted player (eg: Evans) and also move one other back down to the rookie list (eg: McKenzie) and take a chance that they won't be grabbed by another club, which is a pretty good risk policy given our current standing.

What I don't understand is why this hasn't been done already? I get they have to wait and see what players become available by other club's cullings, but we still should be aiming to use pick 40 and 53 regardless. Is Tapscott away overseas and therefore Roosy can't speak to him personally yet. Ditto Evans.
