First list update for the year 2025!

I am listing Moniz-wakefield as a "Cat.A Rookie" I know there is some confusion as to this, It is possible he is still a "Cat.B Rookie"

this means we have 1 position available for a "Cat.B' player (this is to be confirmed as it may actually be three "Cat B" positions now!)

OR

we have 1 "Cat A" rookie spot left (and possibly 1 "Cat B" if the AFL have indeed increased the limit to three)

Hopefully the Club will Update us at some stage as to Moniz-Wakefield's Status

Quote

In addition to these six rookie-listed players, each club can include up to three additional players (now referred to as Category B rookies) on its Rookie List provided the player either:

How did Lindsay and Langford get 3 year deals? I thought it was 2 when you get drafted?

Rule Change this year... 3 Years for picks under 20, 2 years for the rest :)

To clarify the rookie tenure rules.

Somewhere on DL it was assumed the new 5 year/10 AFL game rule does not apply to B rookies.  I've found nothing from the AFL/AFLPA nor any club to support that assumption.   

The assumption was that, because a media report listed AMW as an A rookie, the new rule doesn't/can't apply to B rookies.  That 'logic' doesn't compute as there may be other reasons AMW is no longer a B rookie eg because the club needed two B rookie spots to draft Andrew and Mentha.  The status change for AMW would be a timing coincidence not because the new rule doesn't apply to B rookies.

so I am unsure if this is new and we can have 3 B rookies?,

either the 2023 CBA is out of date, or the AFL website is out of date...

The AFL often do not date their releases so should be used with caution. That link is very old; definitely pre covid.

The 2023 CBA is the current 'bible'.   It runs until 2027 with adjustments as and when announced.

Can someone clarify if we can list Noah Yze? Surprised no one has asked JT. 

As AMW appears to be an A Rookie the answer no, as we don't have a list spot.

Can anyone confirm if we have a full list, or do we still have room for potential SSP or mid season spots? 

We only have 1 Cat B rookie spot available

Agree. We didnt have a pick in the rookie draft which meant our a list is full. If we had a spot we cpuld have passed to keep it free.

We are rolling with 43 players this year including mentha as our sole cat b.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
