Although, I totally agree with his delisting, and think it was at least 3 years overdue (i acknowledge he got the best out of himself however), why was he delisted and not offered for trade?

I know he gained some respect in the media and may have been a tagging option for another club.

I thought maybe we could have received something for him (and another player) or at least tried to help him find a new club.

Or dont you think a club would have coughed anything up for him or are happy to wait for the draft?

    Geelong traded players instead of delisting them, however let's not kid ourselves. Who in their right mind would have given up even pick 90 for Simon Godfrey.

    I guess there's an argument to say that you should hang on to everyone until the end of trade week, so you have the opportunity to trade rather than delist guys you're not interested in.

    However, if players are not delisted until after trade week they are unable to nominate for the national draft (and are only eligible fot the PSD).

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
