I know he's young and a bit of a hot head but I don'tlove Taylor complaining to the umps in an intra-club...

A midfield with Koz and Windsor is going to be fun

Ah Mu has sticky mitts

I think that's Monash Uni?

Sorry, I'm using the term 'list' holistically. All SSPs are added to the rookie list, but you still need to have a spot open up. At the end of the year, no-one stays on the Inactive list and the club needs to cut back to a certain number of players on the main and rookie lists. We did that and still kept Henderson. So Henderson is not currently taking up McAdam's spot in the overall list. If McAdam is put on the Inactive list, my understanding is we can choose another SSP, who also goes on the rookie list like Henderson

Yes, because they would have had to cut down list numbers at the end of last year and decided to keep Henderson. So if McAdam is an LTI this year, it's a separate list spot.

Fair enough, although I think the rules for a Cat B listed player and SSP/PSP player are different (which I acknowledge wasn't included in my previous post). The AFL rule book for 2024, also in rule 26 on pg. 99-100 says that to get someone from the SSP/PSP (i.e., train on player), the AFL listed player needs to be on the inactive list, which means they are ineligible to play that season unless another list spot opens up and the club gets permission from the AFL.

This seems like the old LTI/rookie list rule to me. I didn't think rookies needed to be elevated to play AFL anymore. The rules from 2021 (when it was instituted) say that it needs to be a year ending injury or retirement, at which time they are placed on the inactive list and replaced with an SSP

For information, the SSP signing period ends 2 March. So plenty of time for them to assess both Viney and McAdam

Suggest just googling it. But Andy's also asked for it to be kept off here, in line with that sort of thing.

Howes is best mates with Finn Callaghan from GWS

The club didn't share it, looks like it was taken by someone at the photo day and put on instagram

This has been shared from myheartbeatstrue on instagram. Looks very country footy club...

It's been reported he's done a lot of running away from the group this preseason. Interested if this a veteran management thing or a lack of conditioning
