believe he will be gone.

I have heard this rumour as well.
The only thing that makes me unsure about this rumour is it'd mean we'd need to use pick 67 or a 2nd PSD pick. Maybe we have a Coburg player in mind.

as i said in another post, during an interview on sen, steve wright  spoke about meyer saying he is a a player that will be around. he said that danny hasnt had a full pre season yet and this yr his aim was to have one.
he intimated that danny will be around and required


imo, if danny stays , i have a feeling next season he will finally come to the party and perform (unless he is delisted that is)

Im happy with a two year contract if it is given. Danny to me will come good in time. He has too many quality skills not to especially his ability to dispose the ball correctly.

I remember in a praccy match earlier in the year where every disposal he gave was to another players advantage. Thats something we really dont have enough of in this group, class!

Every player is different and in Danny's case we must give him time to develop.

That would be totally insane.

On what basis has Meyer earned a two year contract?

A praccie match?!? :banghead

The guy was given a one year contract in '07 and to say he had a poor season would be a compliment.

Unbelievable if true.

How anyone could be happy with his output at this point defies belief.

how about we give danny a chance to properly develop and fulfill his potential

we have given tivendale way too many yrs of contracts , and we gave krak a good chance.

what about hyde and jackson and moore and mguane

these players such as mguane, jackson ,moore , meyer etc just may be the difference in a yr or 2

Perhaps it's a 1+1 year performance based contract. PLay some senior footy in 2008 and he stays for 2009.

Yep. With a allegedly strong draft next year we should be keeping our options open as far as fringe players go.

I doubt that this is true I really do.

Someone's just made it up.

Perhaps Sheeds' article today could also apply to Danny amongst others?

It can be dangerous to clear players who have talent but are also a little awkward early in their careers.

When you interrupt a player's career by cutting him off the list at 21, there is a fair chance it might backfire.

... when clubs decide to axe talented kids who are yet to blossom, they run the risk of ending up with egg on their faces.

Danny is at the point where it's make or break next year but yep our young talls should be treated more patiently by supporters especially ruckmen. Benny Gale was like a fish out of water too when he was a young Tiger.

The next list lodgement is on Friday for any more delistings.

Thanks MT. :)
I honestly won't be at all surprised if Danny walks into the PSD.
