2024 List and Contract Details

I make it that we have 33 on the list now - with Tomlinson and Joel Smith (who everyone seems to have forgotten about) probably going...so could leave 31-32.

 

So with only 2 picks, seems we would upgrade two of our rookies (McVee and AMW?) as minimum on senior list is 36.

Unless we are doing some more deals today to get in more picks...

    10 -pick 5

    12 - pick 9

    19 - sharp

    30 -campbell

    i think only koltyn would move up, so maybe kolt into 10

    Turner, Turner?

    Update for Sharp.

    Again unsure at this stage of the contract lengths for Campbell and Sharp to some guesswork being employed

    footywire has Campbell until 2025

    Looks like we will be one short on the senior list, max 36, currently 33 with only pick 5 & 9.

    I believe we can use Pick 83 (round 5 pick) if required

    I'd guess Sharp would have a minimum of two years given his age.

    We have the following jumper vacancies: 10, 12, 19, 20?, 27?, 29, 30, 34, 43

    Could you start a 2025 Jumper Numbers thread, like last year, with these, please, @Demonland?

    I don’t think the AFL media thinks we are irrelevant.

    32 on Senior List (people forgettng Joel Smith has not been delisted (yet)).

    So you'd think:

    - 2 spots for pick 5 and 9
    - 2 spots for McVee and AMW (Rookie upgrade)

    If Smith gets delisted, then either a pick at PSD or another rookie upgrade (Kynan Brown)?

    I checked the latest list after Tomlinson went, and it is 32, and Joel Smith's name is not on the list. So, 32 seniors, six rookies & 1 Cat B rookie. On the latest list Mcvee is already upgraded. The 6 rookies are Melk, Sestan, Kentfield, Brown, Hore & Verrell.

    Is this on website? Where are you looking? As Smith has definitely not been delisted given the pending investigation/final list lodgment is not until mid novemeber.

    No, this is a few pages back where one of our posters keeps a list of the contracts, their length, etc. It is the most up-to-date synopsis of the club. Lucifer's hero used to manage it, but she handed it over to Red and Blue forever.

    Apologies, I was under the mistaken impression that Smith had already been delisted.

    Fixed now.

    In the absence of a contract, come 31 October (I think?) what is a player's status, then?

    The interesting thing is, could Smith be the tall forward option we are looking for. Has he been suspended, how long is his suspension.  Maybe he is rookied, for 12 months and comes back after that.

    How long do you need to be out of the AFL to come back as a Cat B rookie?

    assuming Smith is gone (formality) and McVee is promoted, situation as I see it is a maximum of 8 spots available:

    - Senior List (current 32) - 4 to 6 additional spots available

    - Rookie List (6) - 0 to 2 additional spots available (1 to 3 if Hore Delisted)

    - Rookie B (1) - 1 spot available

    a few choices between 2 draft picks, DFA options and SPP's

    - Rookie B (1) - 1 spot available

    a few choices between 2 draft picks, DFA options and SPP's

    Still limited to max 44 players

    Last year 36 senor 6 rookie A 2 rookie B

    Now at 33 S 6A and 1B  (assumes McVee has already been upgraded)

    If Smith and Hore go will be 32S 5A and 1B

    If AMW  gets upgraded to senior list will be 33S 5A and 0B

    This leaves following spots 3 senior 1 rookie A 2 Rookie B

    There could be other combinations but I don't know the rule limiting the number of each category.  I know some clubs leave a space for mid season draft in the past, but don't know if that has changed.

    Maybe they go 35, 8 and 1 if legal.

    Maybe they traded those picks in the 60's because there was better value of 20 -22 year old players from other comps to be picked as rookies.

    Hi red and blue forever, the club has just announced that Marty Hore has been re- signed for 2025 CatA rookie and Jake Melksham has been upgraded to the senior list. 😁😁

    I imagine that means we will be taking 3 picks at the draft, with McVee also upgraded and Smith delisted? 

    AMW then will be moved to the Cat A rookie list and then I’m guessing Mentha and maybe an Irish player on the Cat B list

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
