Who will be delisted at seasons end?

[Rampstar]

My mail is Jacko will retire.

Your mail is obviously better than BJs

Jacko's retirement has saved a younger fringe player from the chop.

Those still out of contract: Arnot, Batchelor, Dea, A.Edwards, Elton, Helbig, McDonough, O'Hanlon, Petterd as well as rookies Darrou, Stephenson, Williams, Banfield, Thomas.

Still assuming we don't go beyond the 4th round in the National Draft if say we have picks 10, 30, 48 & 64. Means 3 current senior listed players will have to go to fit the newbie draftees onto our senior list. More than 3 will go if we go after a free agent.

Senior list:
Out:
King (retired)
Jackson (retired)
A.Edwards
Helbig
O'Hanlon
Possibly Arnot or even Knights (if he joins Jacko and retires due too many injuries)

I would add Dea but, as other have pointed out, the coaching staff rates him so he'll now stay.

In:
Miles (elevated)
1st ND pick
2nd ND pick
3rd ND pick
4th ND pick
Possibly a Free agent


Rookie list changes:
Out: Darrou, Williams, Banfield.

Possibly a Free agent / Trade


Rookie list changes:
Out: Darrou, Williams, Banfield. Stephenson

Imo with jackos retirement its even more likely we will promote thomas as his direct replacement.
atm cant see us useing more than 3 nd picks which is a shame.
reckon we will compensate for this by cutting 4 rookies. there is absolutely no reason to keep stephenson on any  list if we jst arent going to use him at afl level. its a total waste of a spot that shoyld be going to a 20 23 yo ruckman that has potential and can be developed. a bit like the tom derickx experiment.  just because it failed once it does not mean you dont do it again. in fact this is what the rookie list is for imo.

heres a list of the 10 uncontracted players i think should go first.
king, jackson, edwards, stephenson, helbig, banfield, ohanlon, arnot, darrou and williams.all bar williams have had 3 yrs at least so we have had a real good look at em and should be able to make a decision on them. the first 6 in particular just have to go 4 plus yrs is enough id say.
these ten contributed a combined total of 21 games this yr so they will hardly be missed as far contribution to the senior team goes.
the sad part is theres just as many with contracts and a few more without who could easily be placed on this list.

Jacko quits

We promote Thomas

And delist arnot and helbig

And possible Bach and dea,mcdonuts

Mind boggling and depression invoking

[tigs2011]

Thomas won't be promoted. Pretty sure he's accepted a spot on the rookie list again.

[Andyy]

Bachelor won't be delisted

Our lack of ruck depth thanks to that shocker of a trade for Hampson is why I think the Big O may be kept on as a rookie. I can only see Stephenson going if we recruit another ready-made ruckman or he retires himself.

The number of draft picks we use will of course depend on what we do in the free agency and trade markets. Too early to tell yet but to just use 3 picks would be disappointing from a list management point of view. The club mustn't lose sight of developing and maintaining a balanced list long-term across the age brackets otherwise we'll be repeating past mistakes and end up with major gaps in these age brackets (St Kilda over the past 5 years is the perfect example of what not to do in terms of list management). 

[Judge Roughneck]

Would like at least three bottom age players

Only one 'kid' in the last draft concerning
