with magoo suposedly being offered a contract i doubt he will be delisted.
browne delisted and gus moved on probably saves derickx.
that leaves either post or white, assuming one will go to get the 4 ND picks( which may have changed.)
Post being younger and the recruitment of edwards and knights leaves white as the most probable to get the big A.
edwards seems to be an afterthought though, so it may mean we only use 3 picks, which would in effect mean we gave up pick 43(?) for him.
The easiest and most common sense option is to put Newman on veterans list
no the easiest and most common sense thing to do would be cut white. a 7 yr player who is still not established is ordinary shkill wise hardly touches the ball and is very limited in what roles he can perform. who is now a long way back in the que for the role he does do making him not even a depth player.
he might be a nice bloke and he might be a good club man but we arent running a charity here there is not one good footy reason to keep him.
the rookie numbers get pruned back this yr i believe. placing newman there limits what we planned to do in taking some mature players who can perform a role.
darrou, verrier, simon and newman would give us just two rookie picks of which one at least im sure we will use on a mature ruckman. that would leave just one pick and im sorry to say there are many many better players out there than white we could use with this rookie pick yet alone keeping him and not useing pick 43.
i hope they wake up to themselves.
just lately it seems we take 2 steps forward and then one step backwards with crappy list decisions,
the way i look at it do we keep matt white who is as plain as the nose on your face a dud and there is no practicle reason to keep him, lowrie towers hrovat pongracic are just three off the top of my head who could slip to here. or use pick 43. its a no brainer. imo some very promising kids will be available at 43. nick rodda a kpd could be at43 we could actually do with another genuine kpd. we could pay overs here and take jack hannath ensuring we have a viable young back up ruckman to ivan. dean kent marvin warrell are two west aussies well worth taking here.
if we keep white and fail to use pick 43 we should all be ropeable.
bloody hell imo we needed to get another pick around here and cut two not use the pick at all.
