How should we accommodate drafting John McCarthy in the PSD?
-
Delist Gourdis......Is it true he hasn't shown up for training yet??
-
What's the harm of pushing Newman into the veterans list?
-
Can we get a draft Fev option?
-
Moorey must be done
-
I think Gourdis is goneski
-

I thought the rumour was Greek and RFC have agreed to part ways cuz Greek doesn't want to stuff about for another season? I am worried about the Big G.
Moorey must be done
:thumbsup Surely
-
Move Newman to vets list AND delist Gourdis

He probably already has a house......... :lol :thumbsup

What's the harm of pushing Newman into the veterans list?
Salary cap could be a problem. On the vets' list only half of Newy's salary counts towards the salary cap and that could push us under the minimum 92.5% of the salary cap every club needs to pay.
From a list management point of view it would be better to have a few salary cap "fillers" this year which can then be freed up from 2013 onwards for free agency as well as to use to keep our young guns who will want more money as they reach their prime years.
Examples of salary cap fillers would be:
* Keeping Newy on our senior list for another year so his full salary counts towards our 2012 salary cap
* Having Goo's salary for next year of his contract count towards our 2012 salary cap even if he departs now
* Front-loading contracts of Cotch, Dusty, etc.... so you pay them more now and not so much in subsequent years so our salary cap doesn't become a problem in future years.

Gourdis hasn't been sighted at training yet, so I suggest there's our PSD spot.
-
well, i haven't sighted anyone at training yet .
is this 'unsighted at training' from someone who attends lots of training sessions, or based on the fact that gourdis (along with others ::) ) has not been seen in any of the training pics or video?
-
probably coz they are going to Arizona in a cupla days, beeyoodiful, cover me in burnt hair and squid ink.
-
Someone asked the same thing of Goudis on BF when the footage of McCarthy training was up and Stig said something like "Goudis is there. Can't get photos/videos of everyone." something like that. On my phone at the moment so it's too cumbersome to search but I think it might be early in the McCarthy permission to train thread.

Paying McCarthy would certainly help make a bit of ground too. Could even bump it a smidgen to scare off Port from drafting a player who doesn't want to be there and match the pay too.
-
dont think he actually said gourdis was there, just said he cant get everyone in the video.

Thanks mate :thumbsup
-
Why would you delist anyone now? why wouldnt u have done it prior to the draft. i would assume goo is staying. if he does go it says a bit about how uncertain the footy dept is.
-
Strong word in another pub that Gourdis is not training and will not be back at the club.
-
Just finished a game of online chess with him and he said he has been at training since before most people were born. Hardwok gave him permission to meet the team in Vegas. This is no bullcrap rumour started on a dodgey internet forum, this is from the blokes skype word for word.

Really depends on the TPP position - no doubt members will be informed retrospectively next week.

I would be very happy if this occurs: David Gourdis is delisted, Port Adelaide draft McCarthy and we draft a 18 year old half forward type.
Will be barracking for Port Adelaide to draft McCarthy!

we need a couple of mid sized forwards around the 186cm to 189cm who can run with pace, posses some nice skills and become goal kicking half forwards.

And I really need to win Powerball this week.

Don't agree we have enough or enough players that can play in that position.

HUN now reporting this morning that Port are interested in Leon Davis (again) if the "price is right" - they need a "name" so IMO they'll go for Leon
Would think it is a given McCarthy will wind up at the Tiges ;D

Port Adelaide keen on Leon Davis
by: Jon Ralph
From: Herald Sun
November 28, 2011
RICHMOND will be praying Port Adelaide agrees to financial terms with Leon Davis in coming weeks, clearing the path for the Tigers to swoop on ex-Pie John McCarthy.
A handful of experienced players are likely to get to their preferred homes in December 13's pre-season draft, with Davis, McCarthy and former Saints defender Zac Dawson heading the list.
Davis looked no chance to get to Port Adelaide, but the Power passed on its last national draft pick and has confirmed it wants Davis at the right price.
It has also spoken to McCarthy, who is training at Richmond, and former Adelaide and Carlton midfielder Darren Pfeiffer.
Should Port Adelaide take Davis, it would mean McCarthy would get through to Richmond's selection.
Melbourne said it would not take a pre-season pick, which means Richmond's pick No.7 now becomes the sixth selection.
GWS has the first pick in the pre-season and rookie drafts, but said yesterday it was yet to decide if it would take a pre-season pick.
Port Adelaide football manager Peter Rohde said in Adelaide this weekend Davis was a wanted player.
"Leon Davis is on the agenda," he said.
"There's been a lot of talk about Davis but, in our contact with him and his management, the financial (demands) were well and truly outside of our capabilities."
Former St Kilda defender Dawson will begin training with Fremantle tomorrow, four weeks after the Herald Sun revealed he was leaving the Saints.
The Dockers seem likely to take former Collingwood forward Brad Dick in the rookie draft, which immediately follows the pre-season draft.
Austin Wonaeamirri, Nathan Ablett and Brendan Fevola are available in the pre-season draft, but seem to have little interest.

because the Goo is being rejected from entering WA due to infested fruit?
-
For all of those reasons, JVT. A horrible day. All involved should hang their bloody heads in shame..

Glad he's gone. Never was a fan.

You should take him fishing TFT, you could use the fruit fly larvae but... Go on take the Greek out on your boat

Newman is a veteran. Looks like the G is here to stay ;D
-

Errrr NO
Newman's been listed as a veteran inside our list
So to take McCarthy we still need to free up a spot ;D
-
Just got a message from G telling me he left his boots in Melb, only realised when he got back into Perth. :rollin

why cant it be Connors :(

why cant it be Connors :(
Who said it can't :whistle :whistle :whistle
-
What does inside the list mean WP?
-
hes listed inside HaRHarharHAT
-
why cant it be Connors :(
Nothing would make me happier than seeing the back of Dan Connors but that aint gonna happen
-
What does inside the list mean WP?
A veteran Inside the list means he is one of 38 on the senior list
If he was listed Outside the senior list he wouldn't be counted as one of the 38 but it would mean you lose 1 rookie spot
-
So we want another rookie rather than a listed player?
Is that why we've done that? :help
-

To be honest who knows why they've done it ;D
They must have 38 senior listed players.
They want to draft McCarthy
They need a free spot to draft McCarthy, could have done it with moving Newman to veterans list outside the senior list but have chosen not too
As I said who knows :-\
-
Newy remaining inside the senior list gives even more credence to the word that Goo has gone. We'll find out tomorrow anyway.
