The Rookie (A) list should be dropped and just have a list of 42 blokes 

Pay them properly, they are part of the squad and some play AFL games

so, we will probably delist smith and go into the draft with

3 senior spots

1 a rookie

1 b rookie

unless we grab another free agent as our 3rd pick is around 83 (round 5)

or we may split pick 9...

 

 

according to SEN article yesterday, Smith has already been delisted.

can someone confirm, we have the following available:

- senior list spots - 3 (assuming we stop at 36) - 5 if we go to 38

- Rookie A - 2 - (assuming 36 senior and AMW now Rookie A) - 0 (if we go to 38 senior)

- Rookie B - 2

Great trade period watching other clubs secure ready made talent ! Park pic 9 aside not sure Sharp & Campbell re having huge impacts! Zero fwds  unbelievable! 

Sharp is a running half forward on ball half forward flanker with extreme pace and very good tank. Ie a forward Happy ??! Demonsome? 
And we have Picks 5 and 9 to use at draft Either a forward ( Armstrong or Tauru) might be selected and a highly regarded mid from a selection of approx. 13 mids from pick 1 to 15. ( some nga or father/ son selections which won’t affect clubs as they will be gained by having the required points available. 

We may use pick 83 to get a diamond in the rough. 

You will recall Derk W from GWS was approached and not let go. A 195 cm for / back / ruck. 

Also our Key forwards are below 24 mostly 22 to 18 very young and are just gaining confidence and only Fritta and Kossie are steady goal kickers with Trac and Chandler adding to the scoreboard regularly. 

Our best years are ahead starting now in 2025.

BTW who would you have got via this trade for our list in 2025??

Smith not confirmed by the club yet, but is all but guaranteed, as is Moniz Wakefiled upgraded to rookie 'A'

Here how the list looks with those changes.

I have included the draft picks in the list, but have NOT added their number to List Size totals

- Rookie B - 2 

The rules changed to allow players to stay Rookies for 5 years if they have played less than 10 career games.

It makes no difference to AMW to remain a B-Rookie but it gives the club the chance to recruit an A-Rookie where the recruitment rules are less strict than for B-Rookies.

AMW remains a B-Rookie which leaves 1 A-Rookie and 1 B-Rookie spot.

Love your work R&B.   Any chance you could put a spot in for all the assistant coaches and roles (if known).   There's been a couple of changes with maybe one more to come.

Great idea!, I wanted to do this myself, but have struggled finding contract lengths for the assistants...

If anyone know this, I will happily put them in the list :)

Ruthless? With Tassie coming in, we have already seen clubs moving on older players and others shown as being not quite up to AFL lists.  Some have been brutal.

Whilst a lot of water to go under the bridge, “on current age and form/performance”, there is potentially a larger turnover ahead.  I do think some guys were lucky to hold onto a list spot.  Maybe it was to keep some stability and also that the Dees were not well placed to attract players.  

Looking ahead … to the end of season 2025…potential changes 

retirement… McDonald, Melksham 

sitting on the edge are …potentially delistings 🔪 would include some of (or all of) … Spargo, Hore, Billings, Laurie, Fullarton, McAdam, Verrall, Sestan, Adams, Kentfield

Maybe an email to the club for the attention of Richardson would bring results knowing that most supporters use the spreadsheet as an overall guide

What's the situation with Noah Yze?  Is he set to be drafted this year?  Because I can't see his name mentioned anywhere and we only have two draft picks, and no spots in rookie A.  

We haven't nominated him as a father son as of yet.

I highly doubt we will select him this year because he's form hasn't been up to the level that is worth being drafted.

My inkling is he may suit up for Oakleigh Chargers next year as an overage player.

Cheers for the update. I had a feeling this might be the case.

We have a third pick ND83 which will come in to about 55-65 after academy and f/s bid matches. JT rarely uses picks that late but there may be a smokey he has his eye on.

We also have one A rookie spot. 

No idea what that means for Yze jnr.

AMW remains a B-Rookie which leaves 1 A-Rookie and 1 B-Rookie spot.

 

The AMW situation is confusing. Is it the case we would push him to Rookie A so that we can pre-list both Riak Andrew and Ricky Mentha as Rookie Bs - which assumes they do not get bids in the national draft... 

If JT doesn't have a smokey in mind for our late pick, AMW or Hore could go straight to the senior list?

Well, that frees up two rookie spots, potentially one for Noah.

Mid season draftees are rookies. They don’t go on the senior list.

 

Mentha and Riak Andrew were nominated as NGA’s for us so both can go straight on to the Cat B rookie list if not selected before hand. We didn’t even nominate Yze as a F/S.

Cal Twomey posted a table on either twitter or instagram which had all the clubs nominations. Someone posted it in one of the threads.

I don't have either app so can't help track down the original source sorry.

Info is correct though.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
