OK ... so after Thursday Night we will either have one pick left or none (we take Houli with Pick 69 or whatever it is).

Do YOU think Richmond will delist Taylor to get a player in the Pre-Season Draft? Or do YOU think Richmond will keep him on the list?

Houli hasn't nominated for the National Draft so he can't be picked up on Thursday. He'll nominated for the PSD in December. On draft day we'll use 5 of our picks  (6, 30, 47, 51 an 63) on kids; we'll say 'pass' at pick 79 so we have a pick in the PSD (Houli); and our final ND pick #94 we'll call out Gourdis' name as a promoted rookie.

As for Taylor - he is contracted so he can't be just delisted. He would need to be paid out of his contract if we were to cut him. However Hardwick has said the other day that he plans to work with Troy and give him the time he needs.

For the final time he WILL NOT be de-listed

I think the Club has made that perfectly clear

MT I think that is ordinarily the case.
However, if TT walks and doesnt return, then the club can hardly be said to be required to pay a player who doesnt provide his football services to them.  Also there is the Carl Peterson precedent.  He had a 2 year deal and the Tigers went to the AFLPA and negotiated out of the contract to delist him.

Is part of his contract turning up for training?

I would have thought so and I would have also thought we have the grounds to delist him now if we wanted for breaches of contract.
But the feeling I get is we will persevere with him for a while yet.......

Given we've publically allowed him leave to deal with personal issues, I'm not sure if that can be used against him

If true, should Richmond delist him?

We could draft six new players and then Houli in the Pre-Season!

What delist him before Thursday?

We can't.


List lodgements due pre ND are in and cannot be changed

Only chance we have of de-listing him (which I cannot see them doing) is after the ND and before the PSD

Bottom line is he has currency - why would you de-list him now even if he chooses not to come back.

Keep him on the list for 2010 and then try to trade him at the end of 2011...

And beofre everyone jumps up and down and says it is wasting on spot on our list we did it 2010 with Jordie McMahon  ;D

what currency would he possibly have WP? another pick in the 60's?  :lol he was seen with too much baggge pre draft, since then hes been on assault charges and turned his back on afl, we'd be lucky to get 3 magic bans for him this time next yea, just delist and move on, should have been done a month ago

I think there is provisions to do such thing depending on circumstances, with the AFL's approval.

Is there any way he could be dropped to the rookie list?
“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."
