If we win the flag this year we could potentially see 2 or even 3 retirements (Sewell, Hale, Lake). If this were to happen it's unlikely we would be trading out any depth, but more likely continuing down the same path of trading picks for 20-24 yo players on the cusp of becoming elite

If we could land another Burgoyne type scenario out of moving Sewell on to greener paying pastures then so be it. As long as Sewell and Hawthorn are looked after then GWS or GCS can EAD.
looking at our list, there are a few who might move on at seasons end
Lake 32 - could be getting too old, not sure if he still has a contract, i would like to see him go on, but might retire after B2B
Sewell 30 - might retire, might be traded, might stay, future is unknown atm
Hale 30 - has been in bad form this year, will he hang up the boots a little prematurely, all depends on how much he wants to play(form)
Spangher 27 - used as a back-up, but injury prone, will the Hawks keep him as a back-up?
Cheney 25 - solid back-up player, unlikely to be delisted as he is a good squad player
Schoenmakers 23 - could be used as trade bait?
Grimley 23 - writing is on the wall, could be traded to another club as he has some talent
Hallahan 22 - hasn't shown enough at this point, might not be able to make it?
Kelly 21 - with the abundance of good hbf he is at the bottom of the totem-pole and isn't a young kid developing
O'Brien 20 - hasn't shown a heap, but will most likely be kept, but you never know HFC might make a tough call on him
Rookies - Wanganeen (likely gone)
most likely only 3, maybe 4 changes will be made (Grimley/Kelly and Garlett whom already left) and possibly a traded player or 1 of the above

I think Hale signed a one year extension earlier this year.looking at our list, there are a few who might move on at seasons end
Lake 32 - could be getting too old, not sure if he still has a contract, i would like to see him go on, but might retire after B2B
Sewell 30 - might retire, might be traded, might stay, future is unknown atm

We need to make two more list changes minimum. I would try to keep everyone and just move Cheney and Grimley on. No doubt they have some trade targets in mind but whatever. I'm in the Jordan Kelly will make it camp by the way, but who knows.

Only way Cheney moves on is if we grab probably both of Jaksch and Frawley. Despite Cheney not being an actual key position size, right now we're one injury from needing him to be. Would have been nice to see Grim continue down his early CHB route, sad to see his papers stamped when Lowden got so much more time whilst showing less.

Litherland finally makes the side and then leaves? If he was still fringe maybe. The Hawks have been patient, so has Litherland. I think and hope he will sign for a couple. Would definitely want WC's first rounder. Unlike a noob he would walk straight into their side.

Lowden is younger than Grimmers.

He actually isn't, but I'll concede I thought Lowden was a full year older than he is. Both are 23 and Lowden is roughly 2 months older, but it's so close it's largely irrelevant.

unless our 3 list changes aren't made up of gartlett + 2 retirements, i wouldn't be looking at delisting any of the youngsters (<24yrs) on the list. having said that i have no grasp whatsoever of the available talent in the upcoming draft.
Would be my preferred situation too.
And does someone know if adding a player to the veterans list count as a 'delisting'.
I was just doing some research and internet couldn't answer my question...(that was a first)

You can have two veterans on the main list increasing main list size from 38 to 40. It takes away two rookie spots. We have three, Hodge, Sewell and Mitchell. Say if Sewell retires, Hodge and Mitchell would be the two veterans taking the extra main list spots and a list spot will open inside the non-veteran 38.
List Manager can you clarify if this years draft is deep with talent? I heard earlier in the year it was amazing and am starting to hear by some that it isn't actually anything special.

I say we look to recruit Malceski, just so he can't kick any tin-a$$ goals against us anymore.

Pretty sure he'll be joining his old coach at Melbourne next year, if he leaves Sydney.
Who's we pale face?
As you say, would be stupid to move him on now when we would be paying stuff all for his services.

Hey Guys,
Just want to let you know if you dont already I was having a chat to my boss today and he told me you guys have been chatting with Jack Lonie as a potential pick up. My boss is a family member of Jacks and says that you guys, richmond and GWS are all interested.
