Would not be in any 22 other than GC. Goody favorite, part of the SA crew. 

What do ya mean 'part of the SA crew'.....It sounds like you mean Goodwin favors the SA lads?

[Jaded No More 68,867]

As if this season wasn't bad enough, they're going to finish it off by giving ANB a 2 year deal?!

I have no source other than a few DL posters claiming he's signed on.

I think it's just the one poster saying it repeatedly.  Not saying it's not true BTW!

It's another one of his fixations.  

Be careful not to upset him though, he'll just get all sooky and put you on his "ignored" list.

Junior had a year off and then was picked up by GWS and played another two seasons. When retired was still one of our best and very durable. Hardly cooked. 

My memory is Junior’s calves were playing up (old man injury) and he was struggling to get up week after week. He had just turned 34.

He then took an entire year off, and played one season at GWS in an extraordinary circumstance where they were desperate for experience (i.e. no other AFL club would have entertained the prospect) and only managed 13 games with injuries catching up again.

I still reckon he was cooked but our memories seem to differ.

But out of respect I would have preferred he was offered a deal on the club’s terms.

I read in a VFL report that Tim Smith has announced his retirement. Can anyone confirm this please?

Thanks, that makes sense. I wasn't too sure and embellished a bit to make point. A found memory of Junior in one of his last games for us was when he shirt-front tackled Boomer Harvey who tried to fend and was caught holding the ball.

Thank God it’s not up to you!

Incredible there are still those out there that thinks Jones can contribute consistently. 

Classic rose-coloured glasses. Wouldn't get a game for many other clubs and that goes for his last 4 or 5 seasons.

We don't actually owe him anything. We've paid him a bloody good wage for a long time. Decent servant in hard times, nothing more.

[Lord Nev 13,512]

Garlett and Keilty officially gone.

You'd think so. Gut feel is we'll get on with it quickly to try and move on from this season.

[Frustrated Demon 244]

I think there will be a few more to follow over the coming days

[Demon3 2,541]

So 4 gone, do we see another 4 going?  and who will they be? Tim Smith, JKH, a Wagner?, Stretch, ANB, O Mac? you would think 8 will be a good number. 5 in the draft, 2 trades and maybe a FA?

Reports Tim Smith has retired so that's 5 already.

What happens to JKH, Stretch, ANB, Josh Wagner?

[Adam The God 30,126]

JKH and Stretch have to go IMO. Neither are good enough. ANB is borderline and Wagner is a role player for another 2 years.

[Cheap Seats 3,310]

Now we have 0 small forwards....

All the best Jeffy & Dec - Thanks for your service lads

excuse my ignorance but whats the go with rookies? like Dec Kielty is a Rookie? does that free up a spot on the list or just something we have to fill with another Rookie? 

Does that even make sense?

Even Guy Walker also?

Lewis, Tim Smith and Maynard are gone. I think we can only sustain about 6 list changes per year without risking depth issues.

Garlett, Stretch and Corey get 1 more year I think. 

ANB and Keilty have to be traded or delisted. 

I'm undecided on Omac and Jones.. I think they stay for now.

Sign Frost!

 

 

Get Frosty on the 'permanently required' list immediately!

Normal rookies are essentially main list players now anyway, so yeah we'd have to go into the season with 44 players, made up of a combination of 38+6, 39+5 and so on.

Walker is Cat B rookie, so sits outside this list and we have to elevate him to have him play, I think they can sit on this list for 2 years with no upgrades.
