What is the last date he can be delisted so that we can replace him with another pick in the draft?

Wednesday November 10, 2pm - List lodgement two.   (National Draft on Nov 18)

Wednesday November 24, 2pm - List lodgement three and TPP estimates. (PSD on Dec 7)

i cannot beleive the club would pick up these guys.
there are kids out there ''busting there gut '' to play AFL and we waste 2 picks now it seems on players that are ""in the too hard basket "
from what I have seen at AFL level, it is way too hard for most of these players who come from different backrounds.
Have a look at Hawthorns delistings,

so he can go go back Alice springs and live of Center link rather than being apart of a massive AFL club that will win a premishpe making him alot of money ????

... by the way teh NRL has exactly the same problem ...i just dont get it  ??? hopfully we learn from Roberts, Taylor ect ect

They find it hard in a team enviroment

But he is contracted so I cannot see him being delisted

And in fairness we don't know (neither does the media most probably) what these "personal issues" are so until we do I dont think we should be shunting him off just yet  :-\

Have a look at Hawthorns delistings,

spot on

an absolute waste. Clubs are picking up your Barlow and J Pod's  and we have a crack at 2 players who were a massive risk.

I hope we have learnt our lesson

We change the locks on the building and not let him in  :-\  :help

he'll be back in February or March, probably just doesnt want to do the preseason lol. Personally Id sack him. Not worth the effort. Also showed no respect for what the club did for him with his legal issues.

what a shame considering the talent this kid has, i wonder with the other two indiginoues players leaving in bling and gilligan that he felt very much alone...hope it can be worked through...the off season must be excruciating for these guys

He won't be reading but I say, please come back Troy.

The Tigers need a talent like you. Shame to see your gift wasted.

Some threads you just know are going to be full of narrow minded, ill informed,  bigoted crap.
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways my ways,” says the Lord.
 
“For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are my ways higher than your ways,
And my thoughts than your thoughts."

classic.
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

Yep spot on Jack.
Wait till you at least know how to play the game at the highest level before you start parading around in lime aqua or whatever coloured boots.

Good bye. Next
