We were rumour to be interested in Patton does his knee mean we are not interested or does it just bring the price down?

Off previous rookies, we've been keen to keep them on the rookie list for as long as possible, or their 2yrs before promotion but like you say there may be room on the senior list that we need to fill this time around.Good question.
Said it here a few times already but I think we may be forced to push a couple of the boys up...........Why not Sheehan?
I wouldnt be surprised if ellard is cooked
The Patton and Carlton rumours were not true. We are however interested in Boyd and Patton's injury does make it difficult to pries Tom away.We were rumour to be interested in Patton does his knee mean we are not interested or does it just bring the price down?
Too be honest if we could get Jaksch and pick #6 this year, and then Tom next year for our first round pick and a little extra (out of contract and all that) then it would be the absolute dream scenario.The Patton and Carlton rumours were not true.

Gunna have another crack at my trade/delist:
Retire: Duigan, Scotland
Delist: Bootsma, Temay
Trade or Delist: Lucas (3rd rounder), McLean (whatever we can get)
Trade or Keep: Warnock, Ellard, Robinson, Garlett, Armfield
Re-Rookie: McInnes
Upgrade: Wood, Sheehan
Senior list changes = Minimum 3 Maximum 10
Rookie list changes = 3
Whoops, I added armfield to that last category when re-reading what I wrote, and forgot to edit the numbers belowPossible 11 senior list changes there with McInnes going off the senior list and on to the rookie list. So 3-11 senior list changes, two upgrades meaning 2-9 senior spots available. 2 rookie spots available.
Yeh, in reality I dont think he will be, but for me its going to be Laidler MkII. Was looking like our best option for 3rd man up before doing his knee, and hasnt gotten back to that form. He's suffered in the lower levels as we are short on good key talls, so he is having to play a different role in this level. Frustrating to watch.not sure McInnes would be rookied.
Because we have 3 Cat B rookie spots, and only 1 currently in use (Byrne).Why does this Fraser Russell bloke deserve to be listed ahead of McInnes, Temay, etc?
On paper, it seems a strange decision. Hasn't played footy in years, yet we're putting him on the list as a category B rookie. Receiving more leeway than Temay or McInnes.
What I think will happen:
Trade table: Casboult, Garlett, Robinson, Lucas, Warnock and maybe Walker if the price is right.
Gone: Brock, Temay, McInnes, possibly Ellard.
Contracted but on notice: Army, Watson, Bell.
What I want to happen:
Everyone stays and wins the flag next year, then lives happily ever after in the land of unicorns, rainbows and chocolate-growing trees.

Gone: Brock, Temay, McInnes, possibly Ellard, Cachia & Carrazzo (AGREE)
Contracted but on notice: Army, Watson, Bell (AGREE, could add Tuohy to that list as well)
Free Agency : Waite

A free hit, that serves a specific purpose.Why does this Fraser Russell bloke deserve to be listed ahead of McInnes, Temay, etc?

Why is Cachia on the block?
He was really showing quality form in the VFL prior to his injury.
Also his AFL form is not any worse than Touhy, Armfield, McLean or Watson, Lucas etc.
What J saidWe're not getting rid of White any time soon. Has improved enormously under MM and is firmly entrenched in our best 22.
