Mega Thread 2012 List Management thread

[Blackas87]

So we have lost, Moloney, Green, Rivers, Jurrah, Gysberts, Morton, Martin, thats 7 player. We have gained Dawes, Pedersen, Byrnes, Rodan, Viney, Barry, thats 6 players(not including Hogan). I would say we will use pick 4 and 49, and also upgrade Nicholson and Magner. So we will need to delist another 3 players. I would say Bate, Bennell and Cook. A 10 player change over.

 

[RandB]

So after trading out 3 contracted players and not getting much back in the process we still have the following uncontracted players who need to be delisted or re-signed.

14 in total:

Rohan Bail
Clint Bartram
Matthew Bate (UFA)
Jamie Bennell
Lucas Cook
Troy Davis
Lynden Dunn (UFA)
Neville Jetta
Joel Macdonald
Ricky Petterd
James Sellar
Jake Spencer
James Strauss
Jack Fitzpatrick

1 must go to make way for 2 more ND picks as we currently have 1 spot available

 

[RandB]

If anyone finds any contract length details for Pedersen or Rodan please post source here or in the conracts thread and I'll update the list in the OP.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Yeah wondered that.. Rodan would possibly be 1-2, Pederson 2-3..

 

[SPC 98]

De-listings:
Cook, Bate, Bennell.

Rookie upgrades: Magner, Nicholson

I think we should also cut Sellar and Bartram if we need any more space.

 

[CM Sean]

Bartram... really?

 

[Theo X]

When will we announce delistings? Can't wait to see guys like Bate, Bennell at al to be shown the door, after having trading away talented players for next to nothing.

 

[Bartram_Class]

First list lodgement next Wed I believe?

Cook is gawn. Raffle the rest between Bate, Davis, Bennell, Jetta, Sellar.

 

[Tulip]

I'm pretty sure Fitzpatrick is contracted until 2013, Rand.

Sellar is one of those players that sets a standard in training, delisting him would be a joke.

2013 - international year of the 1 year contract.

 

[pjfairbairn]

First list lodgement next Wed I believe?

Cook is gawn. Raffle the rest between Bate, Davis, Bennell, Jetta, Sellar.

Jetta and Sellar, like Joel Mac, have shown that while they will never be worldbeaters, they can buy into the coach's game plan, will put their body on the line and will always have a crack. They will all stay, and compete consistently for a spot in the 22.

I know we like what Davis does at Casey, but he has never been judged good enough to be in the 22. Cast IMO, alongisde Cook, Bate, Bennell, probably Petterd, and maybe Fitzy. Let's cull the crap and try some smokies in the draft, we have enough height now and some ready to go players so we can afford to try and project players..

 

[booshboy]

Bates, benell, pettered, cook, Williams, Lawrence, Sheahan and Jurrah all officially goneski. The clean out continues!

WOW.

Petterd is a surprise.

Davis stays

 

[Spirit of 39]

Ricky Bobby, JB and Bater gone. Williams off the rookie list is a bit surprising to me.

http://www.melbournefc.com.au/news/newsarticle/tabid/7415/newsid/150377/default.aspx

 

[WalterWhite]

MELBOURNE has delisted eight players, including five from its senior list and three rookies.

The Demons have parted ways with Matthew Bate, Ricky Petterd, Jamie Bennell, Liam Jurrah and Lucas Cook from its senior list, and rookies Jai Sheahan, Leigh Williams and Kelvin Lawrence.

[booshboy]

Would have liked to have given Petterd one more year. Jettas pretty lucky imo.

 

[pjfairbairn]

Couch, Evans, Davis and Fitzy should have been added to that list..

 

[Bazz_38]

how many spots does that open up for drafting?

 

[Tulip]

Couch, Evans, Davis and Fitzy should have been added to that list..

Don't even get me started pj. Trade Gys for the best forward in the VFL, and delist the second best?

 

[Tulip]

how many spots does that open up for drafting?

4

Hopefully 3 in the ND and Toy/Surjan in the PSD.

 

[kv_baby]

im guessing a few of these guys were put up for trade, but other clubs just didnt want them? Im sure bate, petterd and bennell will be picked up though.

 

[Tommy D]

Don't forget, this is only list lodgement 1, there are still 2 more to go before our list is final for 2013

 

[Bails2008]

Anyone else get the feeling we will go after somone in the Pre Season draft, e.g Josh Toy or another experienced player. You would think we will use 49 and 53 now. Can also pick up delisted player via free agency so perhaps we bring in someone that way

 

[Bluelegs]

We've been asking for it all year. Clearly a plan is being executed.
