Permission to train list?

[MO FINE 166]

Do they still have one or do prospective players no longer train with the AFL club's.

Good question but the clubs aren't in training at the moment. I don't think Melbourne starts till 6 November.

I think the permission to train list is after the draft but before the rookie draft, to give clubs a chance to assess players that missed the draft.

Kev, that used to be partly the case when there was a gap between the main draft and the PSD & rookie drafts but these days they're within a couple of days of each other. 

If potential draftees are still allowed to train with AFL clubs then it would most likely be when they come back from the break early next month. However, I'm not sure whether it's necessary any more and after Fremantle drafted Jack Hannath who was training with us a few years ago, I'm not sure that it's such a good idea.

Wouldn't be surprised if we invite some Casey boys like Goy Lok or the kiwi fella for a run come first day of pre season.

These are 2 players the days are looking into.

Yes but we did draft Brayshaw after he trained with us.

Anyone know if Howlett has been quietly asked to have a run?

We try not to bring in mediocrity any more, except for maybe an emergency extra ruck.

PS . Sorry was replying to post before yours.

You two blokes would know better than me, no problems. Thought he might have been a possible candidate, seeing as we've picked up two "goodies"

I reckon he is only one good preseason from a breakthrough year

The permission to train list is an insurance thing. If a club wants a look at someone, they can't just bring them in and work them. If the recruit gets injured the club faces liability issues. Having them on the PTT list means they are covered by the AFL.

Looks like St Kilda are considering a few delisted players who will be training with them over the next week or so -

Saints offer possible lifeline to delisted trio

Circle-work perhaps?

Good to see that we're not going down the path of trying to recycle mediocre footballers. We have four vacancies - give the youngsters a go.

And there you have smart future list construction, made possible by a reasonable current list.
