I think Tiv and Hyde will be delisted.

Petts and King will be used as trade bait and maybe even Schulz and JON.

Howart, Silvester and Cartledge will be moved off the Rookie list with Collard kept.

I think it will be extremely unlikely that Casserly and Meyer will be moved on but both have had injury clouds hanging over their careers for quite some time.

What I really hope is that we do not keep an older player with only a couple of years left at best over a younger player who could still have a huge amount to offer.  :pray

Mine is almost the same as Stripes. Follow a criteria that anyone who has been in the system longer than 5 years and isn't in our best 22 goes.

Gone:
Tivs (ret.)
Hyde (delisted)
Petts (delist - knee has wiped out any trade value)
Howat (rookie delist)
Silvester (rookie delist)
Cartledge (rookie delist)

Trade bait:
Schulz, King, JON.

I would also ask the AFL about moving Polak onto our rookie list as Essendon did with Rama.

That would give us at least 4 picks combined in the National and PS drafts plus 2 new rookies. I'd be tempted to pass in the PSD with pick 8 unless there's a rookie we really want.

Would the throw Cogs in as he has been injuried riden for a long time now. I know it sound a little like throwing the baby out with the bathwater. But we haven'
tt seen him on the feild for a long time.

I really hope that Newman isn't in it I think he has plenty to offer us in the coming years. The rest is fine by me not that my opinion will make any difference to what is going on in trade.

I don't wish for Newy to be traded either but perhaps a very good B grade player like Newy with good leadership skills may be on the radar of a side that may want to upgrade and complement their list and on the flip side we may need to trade someone like him for a first round or early second round pick.

Hellenic, do you honestly and seriously think that Newman could possibly be traded????

He is 26 y and 3 months old - of which we do not have many in that age bracket.

He has played 132 games including every game last year and this year.

He is averaging 20 disposals a game this year - a career high from last year's previous career high of 18.2. See: http://www.footywire.com/afl/footy/pc-richmond-tigers--chris-newman

He is a vice-captain and leader of the club.

Need I say anymore.  Why would we get rid of a mid-aged player for another young kid?  Do you want the club to go backwards?  We already had 11 players last week (according to Wallace on SEN) that had played less than 50 games...Why would you trade someone with 132 games experience when they are playing their best footy for a punt on a young kid??

I am with the Latin on this one: ridiculum.

Devil's advocate here Con ;D

If a trade meant we could get a higher 1st round draft pick, say in the top 3 - are you saying you wouldn't even consider it?

I would think you have to consider all options - doesn't mean you do the deal but it has to be worth at least thinking about it

Honest question. Why is Hyde's name in the list. Before he broke his jaw I think it was. He was playing good football. Is it just that he hasn't regained his level from them to now or is it due to the lack of opitunity for him to be able to get into the A list?

Tell 'im he's dreamin'

There is NO CHANCE IN HELL that we will have 9 delisted at the end of this year, not a snowflakes
Coughlan & Casserley are contracted for starters
Secondly, this years draft isn't that strong past Pick 25, similar to the 2005 draft the changing of the eligibility age for the new GC17 club has put a lot of this years talent into next years draft.
We will probably only draft 3-4 kids this year, plus rookies
