Delistings 2024

[MadAsHell 4,212]

I'm certainly all for throwing a life line out to DGB. And if not him then Caleb Marchbank. The only key defender we have coming through is Jed Adams who I'm not sold on. Who knows how long May & McDonald will go on, so we need some other options down there.

 

Either would be worth a go IMO, but preferably DGB.

Quinton Narkle apparently being delisted, thoughts?

Is he the bloke that kicked the winning goal against us late in the year?

[M_9 2,078]

No DGB. No Narkle. We've fully subscribed when it comes to list cloggers, with at least eight.

Interesting @MadAsHell  agree that May (33 in Jan-25) and Tom McDonald (just turned 32) are now in the twilight of their careers.  McDonald probably will finish end of ‘25 and May end of ‘26.  We had Petty as a key defender but seems like we are trying to convert him to fix the MFC key forward ongoing absence.  Tomlinson let go.  Adams is certainly not yet ready. I’d have him 50/50 if he even makes it.  Otherwise the cupboard is bare.
 

Agree we would like to add another taller defender.  It might be that the Dees keep a list spot open and invite players for an SSP train on option available over the summer.  Not sure about Marchbank due to many many years of injury. Prefer Ethan Phillips as an option. At 6’6 and 90kgs, at 25yrs he’d cover off the defence if May or Tmcd were absent.

The difference between ‘depth’ and ‘list clogger’ is a successful season…

Talking to a former Casey forward coach down by the pool and he told me he was talking to Tommo who thinks he's about a 60% t0 70% chance to get picked up by Collingwood. Speaking of which, Pendle's is up here on holidays too.  

 

Maybe pretend to smother a pretend ball and knock peddles out and say it was a football act 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Tom Scully delisted (do not adjust your monitor)

[MrFreeze 1,944]

We can't forget Blake Howes. Add a couple kgs and he will be a great 2nd or 3rd tall option for us.

[Demons1858 1,742]

Doesnt play tall

He’s an oversized flanker. Not an aerial defensive bone in his body. Has to improve that but more than anything needs to show the run and skills that saw him drafted.

He is above average in intercept possessions, he's a nick blakey type imo. Hybrid key defender and rebounder.

19yo 203cm forward. Only 2 years in the system then dumped.

Kicked 20 goals from 18 games for Port SANFL this year. Not great but Port won the wooden spoon so it's not all his fault.

Interesting prospect for a rookie spot?

Why would we be interested?

[spirit of norm smith 16,167]

CARLTON midfielder Jack Carroll is among three players delisted by the Blues, despite playing 15 games this season. Blues being ruthless. They have cut a few and are loading up in this draft.  Whilst it’s tough on these young guys, they are seen as not quite good enough. Carroll can still be a good AFL player so it’s likely he will go home to WA and would be picked up by the Eagles or Dockers.

Justice delayed is justice denied, to be clear, not talking about what justice is denied for. So many double standards in the AFL, I'd really like to see him rehabilitated, he can actually play pretty bloody well and is easily the best of any player going around compared to anyone else on the delisted list. And on the bright side he has been injury free for 12 months.

Sorry if this sounds harsh but that’s a good result.

Absolute nonsense having a player on the list that can’t play football.

Now we can actually play 2025 and not have 2 players ineligible.

It’s nothing to do with the AFL, in competition test is a WADA matter

List cloggers IMO (current): Billings, McAdam, Fullarton, Laurie.

Potential: Adams, Verrall, Sestan, Kentfield, Campbell.

Yes, we need 'depth' players, backups, whatever term you use, but four of those named have been delisted by other clubs for a reason. Reports from Casey are that Jefferson is the only player that could debut next season.

I hope I'm proved wrong.

 

[spirit of norm smith 16,167]

2024 squad = 45.

Minus😭ANB, BBB, 😭Gus, KFW, Schache, Tomlinson & JS29 likely to go.

Plus Campbell and Sharp.

So now 40 on the list. 

Dees likely to look at drafting 3 players in the draft and

either a rookie or one spot for a SSP train in player over the summer.
