Gourdis has been delisted
Confirmation anywhere?
EDIT:
Richmond has made the final changes to its playing list ahead of the 2008 National Draft.
David Gourdis has been delisted, while rookies Tristan Cartledge, Clayton Collard and Cameron Howat have not been retained on the Club’s rookie list.
The Tigers have made a total of five changes to their primary list after the 2008 season, with Greg Tivendale, Chris Hyde, Danny Meyer and Travis Casserly also departing Punt Road.
Jarrod Silvester has been retained as a second-year rookie for season 2009.
Gourdis was selected with Richmond’s number one pick in the 2008 pre season draft, but failed to play a senior game for the Club.
Howat was recruited on the rookie list in 2005 and broke through for five senior games at the end of the 2006 season. He played 15 games and averaged 14 possessions in 2007 while Mark Coughlan recovered from a knee injury, and filled in for one game in 2008 while Trent Cotchin was on the long-term injury list. He played a total of 21 games for the Club.
Cartledge, picked by the Tigers in the 2007 pre season draft, was also promoted to the senior list for two games during the 2008 season after playing seven games previously for Essendon.
In other news from Tigerland, the Club added two new staff members to the football department in the strength and conditioning area this week.
Terry Condon is the Club’s new Conditioning and Rehabilitation Coach, replacing Warren Kofoed. For the past 12 months Condon has worked on a part time basis with Richmond, in addition to working with Coburg Football Club.
Brendan Farhner has also joined the Tigers as Sports Science Assistant, after completing a 12-month honours research project with Geelong Football Club.
New Richmond assistant coach Wayne Campbell also started work this week following two years as an assistant at the Western Bulldogs.
The Tigers will enter the 2008 AFL National Draft with selections 8, 26, 58 and 74.
