Good luck Bull.  Showed plenty of courage and commitment, and sad to see you go.  I remember that maggot Rance sticking the knees into Bull’s back and putting him out for an extended period.  Never had a solid run at it.

So where does that leave us: so far, Keilty and Garlett gone, Smith and Lewis retired. I think I'm missing someone ... but is there a thread somewhere with the comings/goings?

I have updated this thread:

There seem to be a few players re-contracted but not announced so had planned to wait till they were known.

Congrats on a career Bull! Was always a fan and unfortunately injuries got the better of you.

Certainly had the talent thats for sure.

Well done Bull, you played AFL footy and achieved your ambition.

Unlucky with injuries, which probably cost you a few more games.

Hope you return to Casey.

Met you a few times and you are a nice friendly bloke.

Good luck in the future.

Awesome effort Tim, just like Dec you gave it a red hot crack and had some excitement to you. Best of luck for the future and hopefully you take some screamers in local footy.

A tough hoor and solid player but injury prone. I must say I thought he was the better of the present listed Smiths.

Cheers for your efforts Bull, gave it a red hor crack but unfortunately the footy gods weren't on your side.

Best of luck to you in whatever the future holds

Bull had potential and gave us the best he had to give, a goer. However he had more potential being injured and was good at that.

Rarely strung 2 games together but he had heart more so than many of his team mates could show.

I was a really big fan of the Bull, was hoping he could fill that Cam Pederson role, but you cant fight the body. He should be really proud and hope he goes well post footy. 

So that 5 gone..(Jeff, Jordy, Maynard, Dec  & Bull)  who else gets us to that magic number of 8?

Not sure why 8 is a magic number but if you want 3 more names:  Stretch, Kennedy Harris, J Wagner still un-contracted and like other OOC players no rumours that they have re-sgined (and announcements yet to be made).

I think 8 changes to the list is the right amount of refreshing. It allows some flexibility in how we conduct the trade period. Gives us 2 /3 looks at FAs 4 draft picks which we need, we need to keep adding youth and finding good players and then a fresh rook or Pre season pick.

My guess it will be at least 10 players out. 

Add Guy Walker to the 3 names I just posted.  And Frost is rumoured to be traded.  That is 10 outs.  And I wouldn't be surprised if another contracted player isn't traded.

Yeah good call with Walker, forgot about him.. and yep Frost on the way out and i agree, i think we may find there is another contracted player on a clubs list.. so yeah you may be right, it might be 10, that's close to a 1/4 of the list. big turnover, not opposed to it though.

My only thoughts on stretch and JKH is that they would likely be told by now unless they will be used as pawns in other trades?

I think JKH and Wagner will both be cut with Stretch offered a 1 year deal.

I believe Lockhart Wagner and Baker have all signed 1 year deals.

yeah i tend to think Stretch will retained for cover.. if JKH & Wags get cut then it would stand at 7, plus a Frost on the way out maybe and possibly 1 more.. like Jayden Hunt who might look at opportunities elsewhere (hope not and just speculating) so we might be looking at 8/9 changes. its about right.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
