At best currently 2 usable draft pick this year.

Six players already off the list possibly seven. (Not sure if any of those were rookies)

One player added to the list.

That leaves a shortfall of 4.

Whats the plan from here?

    Fact the team has to promote Chandler off the Rookie List to the main List, Grundy is now on the main list.

    As it stands at the moment we have 2 spots on the main list to fill and 3 rookie spots.

    If Weideman is traded then they have 3 spots on the main list they may recruit a free agent to the main list and still only require 2 picks.

    Out; Jackson, Weid, Hunt, Bedford, Rosman , Daw (r), Brown (r)

    In: Grundy, Schache 
    Chandler promoted 

    Pick 13, a late pick and 3 rookies at this stage.

    But plenty of water to go under the bridge.

    We might want some open spots for the mid season draft, or be happy to go with more rookies this year - I think you have to have a minimum of 42 players but up to 6 can be rookies. We could be trying to even out some of the big spending we've done lately (Clarry, Trac and Grundy) so we have some room next and in future years?

    Have a look at the top of page 1 on this thread:

    I haven't had time to update it for the the Grundy trade but everything else you would want to know is there for the draft and trade.

    To help read the chart for list numbers start at the bottom left corner and note the list size is fixed at 42 and 2 B rookie3s.  But the 42 can be have a flexible number of seniors and A rookies.  For the chart I have assumed the current mix of 26 senior players and 6 A rookies.

    Will do the final update after COB today.

    Any questions fire away

    Just one question, can you include the salary amount Collingwood is paying for Grundy? Ta 🙂

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
