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

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

assuming Smith is gone (formality) and McVee is promoted, situation as I see it is a maximum of 8 spots available: - Senior List (current 32) - 4 to 6 additional spots available - Rookie List (6) - 0 to 2 additional spots available (1 to 3 if Hore Delisted) - Rookie B (1) - 1 spot available a few choices between 2 draft picks, DFA options and SPP's

interesting to see we we trade for him or if the view by clubs is that we will delist him anyway and someone can pick him up for nothing as a DFA.

so interesting that of all the trade targets / whispers re the dees, none of them are looking that likely: - Houston - not getting done - Derksen - unlikely - Owies - limited interest - Lord - hail mary but no We have our back up ruck, but still need a KPF and midfield depth. - KPF - Krueger seems a likely fit, Membrey still available - Mid - Dev Roberston has not been spoken of other than West Coast

i think there is a complete disconnect between list management team and coaching. why bring someone to the club and never play them in the role in which they were brought in for....so many examples of this over last few years.

Jason McCartney making it clear on Trade Radio that they expect Wade is staying at GWS

Kane is nothing more than an ill informed, over opinionated, footy shock jock. he would have no idea what the inner workings and discussions are

heard he was up to some antics at Brownlow night, as well as failed to meet some agreements re medical. I have faith that club has engaged this review and the review has recommended these actions. So i work on the fact we asked for review, got a review and now take recommendations from review. Im sure Clarry, Pluckett and the chase for Jimmy Bartel + others is directly from the review. Unnervy feeling but got to trust the process.

is it just me, or is there a lot of physical and style similarities between Caleb Windsor and Robbie Flower? running style, kicking style ...

hear hear....RIP Robbie

at the end of the day no one is bigger than the club, Jezza, Buddy, Barassi, Ablett etc all left to go elsewhere and their clubs were just fine. as long as we get remunerated accordingly, life ill go on and the Dees will be just fine. If Clarry wants out - so be it. there are obvious issues. 2 good players, 1 good player and great pick. as long as we are compensated.

straight swap. Butters for Oliver

Peatling, Derksen, Campbell, Lord. Robertson if we cant get Peatling + draft That'll do Thanks

would love it but cant see it happening

so i wonder where he will fit? Mid to replace McQualter, fwd, or def and move chaplin?

I think this will work well when Tassie comes in in 2026, and Northern Thunder not long after

I think post Lions season, Dev Robertson will be available and he is a much better option.

Interesting a number of lions posters have been wishing Fullerton was still there so he could play now that Big O is down.

Although I dont think McQualter will get the WCE gig, who should we get to replace him as mid coach if he does knowing we also need a fwd coach and ruck coach.

also got linked to Leek Allir in the last couple of days I read somewhere..

So assuming Tomlinson and ANB are gone, TMAC and Melk confirm they are staying, and Hore does not get a new contract, then our position going into Trade and Draft period period is : - 5-7 spots left on Primary List - 1-3 spots on Rookie A - 1 spot on Rookie B Interesting then to see how/if we can accommodate Yze, Mentha and Andrews, 2 or 3 draft picks plus any incoming trades.

another thread said he has hit a trigger so will continue next year.

where is this article?

the list squeeze at suns may provide a few interesting options if we can get them for little to provide some depth. Discussions include Lukosius, Rosas, Day (DFA maybe), and Davies. of interest: Mids - Robertson (BL), Peatling (GWS), Brodie (Freo), Parfitt (Geel) Fwd - Kreuger, Not sure on value of Wright. Ruck - Kruger, Wright, Day could play this role as genuine ruck/fwd allowing JVR and Jeffo to be pure fwd. Still not ruling out Fullerton either to come on. Interesting idea to get Raik Andrew (Mak's brother who is our NGA), as some bargaining power for Mac later
