So that frees up 3 list spots so far 2 normal and one rookie

I still think we might see some movement, gut feeling tells me Blight heads back west with a few others line ball like Sonsie and Hugo who wouldn’t be shocked if we kept for another year but just as likely to send on their way

A lot of discussion being had in recent posts about our age profile....assuming a decent injury run, we will be fielding a much younger team in 2026, because Hotton, Lalor, Smillie, McCauliffe, Faull, Armstrong and at least one of our top picks from the 2025 draft should play basically every game. Then who knows on Alger, Sims etc... they may play also.

And they'll replace guys older than them.

Majority of our 'golden oldies' played most games in 2025....they'll place less in 2026, and Macca is gone.

Then the year after that we will be younger again as multiple oldies will retire (Presita, Broad, Lynch) and more kids will be drafted.

Then from 2028 onwards we will start increasing in average age until we hit a Premiership age and experience profile from 2028 to 2035 :)
 
They would be handy trade currency
Agree, given we only have 2 picks so far in the ND it would be nice to try and find ourselves with a 2nd rounder or something just to give us some options draft night
 
Will be interesting to see if the rumoured new rules about last touch out of bounds changes this.
The rumoured new rules should lead to more athletic rucks.

But they'll still be monsters, just more mobile ones.

It suits Sampson, but this year he has just moved toward not being pushed around rather than pushing around himself.

There is no way Ralphsmith will be delisted.
