Joel replaces Gas on the vet list.

Howat's status is still up in the air. Re-rookied or delisted  ???

Just thinking about this a bit more - wasn't today the cut-off for decisions on rookies which would mean Cam is gone too(?).

Yep.  He's available to all clubs now, but we might re-rookie him if nothing better shows.

Cheers tigersalive. We now have all 4 rookie spots available so there's room although I don't see any future for one-sided footballers these days.

How is Howat available, he hasnt been delisted.

He was a rookie at the start of the year and even though he got promoted during the season he reverts back to a rookie at seasons end.

He wasnt elevated and wasnt delisted as other rookies were (i.e. Clingan) so that to me means he is still a rookie listed player.

Check the latest rookie club email (not allowed to post it). tigersalive is correct.

I know what you're getting at Bull but we are giving Howat the option to nominate for the ND and PSD to go to another club because we have decided that all we are willing to do is re-rookie him.

That's according to the RC newsletter, or what I could make of it.

[Bull]

No worries, thanks for that.

Doubt anyone would pick him up.

He was disappointing this season, last year he would play straight up the guts and this season got the "Richmond bug" and went backwards, sideways etc.

Please read this Kingy.

Now its my turn to correct myself as I mis-read the newsletter and you're also on the money.  We have delisted him to give him the option to nominate for the PSD and ND but are keen to re-rookie him if not picked.

Second year Blues hit and hit hard at Punt Rd.
Just ask these blokes
Deledio
Raines
Brown broke his leg in 2nd season at Punt Rd in 2005
J Bowden shoulder 1997 after debuting 1996
Polo
P Bowden

Kingy please do not follow in their footsteps with loss of form or injury.

Raines

Hopefully Rainesy and Polo get their heads down over summer as both will be playing midfield IMO. McMahon looks set to take over Rainesy's HBF possie.

Howat, if he doesn't get picked up by someone else, seems to be once again our rookie insurance policy if one of our mids gets injured for the third year in a row.

The big surprise at Punt Rd was the delisting of defender Cameron Howat who played 15 games this year.

Howat has been on the Tigers' rookie list for the past two years.
