So have the heroes apparently

 

List spots must be really tight in club land.  The first DFA selection period closed yesterday and only 2-3 players were selected throughout the competition.

This wasn't a good year to come out of contract. 

Today is the final day for delistings.  Another DFA selection period opens and closes COB Wednesday Dec 2. 

As I understand the rules clubs will not be able to take a DFA after that date.  Anyone seen anything to the contrary?

So we will know in a few days if we are taking a DFA.

venables has long term concussion symptoms like KK but is still on the senior list but theyll be able to make him inactive and then replace him with a SSP pick

Why couldn't we do that with KK?

Unlike some on the Trade and Draft in Time of Covid forum this poster can confidently say...

didn't know which thread was most appropriate but how about the news tyson goldsack after a year out is going to unretire and join port as a rookie! pretty spectacular news considering they gave trent mckenzie 2yrs, signed aliir for 4 and still have clurey and jonas back there but hey, good on him for resurecting a career which maybe he had less say in ending than "retirement" suggests

they've already said it's more about adding experience and depth to their sanfl ranks as much as anything, and giving them some extra coverage in defence to help teach the young 'ns they've got in there

it wouldn't surprise me at all if he ends up playing senior games in 2021 - from all reports, he's one of those players who works super hard on the track

Interesting to see if any delisted players get picked up. Could be nil or perhaps one or two but unlikely to any more than that.  DFAs may come up in rookie or SSP summer time draft.

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
