So we kick off silly season with 5 spots (notionally - I know it’s a more complex than that with cat a/b, rookie etc). If Adams leaves that makes 6.
We don’t have the most compelling draft hand - how many are we likely to take (2?) and how many other spots does that leave? Trying to get a read on how this next couple weeks is likely to play out. Feels like there’s plans afoot, but other than Adams we’re not hearing many rumours. Well / there have been rumours (Goldstein, Doedee) - but they look to have gone another direction.

It's never as good/nor bad as it seems...

yeah there's a lot of time to waste in the FA, trade and DFA periods yet but we don't seem like a destination club as our No.1 team is pretty full. Why would you want to come to the pies unless we freed up some key roles.piffdog wrote:So we kick off silly season with 5 spots (notionally - I know it’s a more complex than that with cat a/b, rookie etc).

A top mid, ruck, key position or intercept player wouldn't come for depth. I fear we are only in the market for fringe players with experience like Markov and Frampton. It might take for Pendles, Sidey, Howe, Elliot, Hoskin-Elliot, and Adams to actually move on before others seek a move in. Not that you can replace them like for like but will be hard to draft top end talent over the next few years if we keep finishing deep in the finals and the Tassie draft takeover sweeps through

Weren't you happy with his contributions in the games he was selected for?Presti35 wrote: W Kelly Gone but maybe rookie list.
I thought they were most promising compared to previous years.
Still, he'd have to hope his body finally comes good in 2024, or he might feel the list squeeze...

Very interested in seeing what happens with the four uncontracted players remaining: Carmichael, Kreuger, Kelly and Begg. None seem certainties to be retained, but the word is that Carmichael is getting another year and Begg seems to be a long-term project player, so I'd be surprised to see either of those two cut.
There has been (and, until a decision is made, will be) a lot of discussion about Kelly, but the one who I think has really flown under the radar is Kreuger. I really wonder whether there's a spot for him on the list, given he's now been on the list for two years with barely a full senior game to show for it (he was subbed either off or on in six of his seven matches for us), and there doesn't seem to be much to suggest that anything's going to change on that front unfortunately.
Anyone know how many of those four we're likely to retain, in terms of the list positions we need to have available? And is it fair to assume that there will be further delistings to come?

Didnt we turn over 10 players at the end of 2010? Just a massive cull? Different situation, lots of older players that held on.
Seems we have a few players that didnt work out and we need to reset a few depth players. Not sure it will be as many as 2010 but still more than previous years...

The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.
