Magner will be given another rookie year.

Magner will be given another rookie year.

True, but I don't see him playing as big of a role as he did this year. Couch will probably get another year on the rookie list as well.

They both need pre-seasons.

You could say that about another 35 players on our list at the moment.

Not when these two haven't had one.

I reckon leave Jetta on the list and keep him up forward as I've said previously. He proved in the back end of the season that he could definitely play the role of a small crumbing forward, but he also showed that he isn't afraid to cop a whack or 2. With more games and a good preseason (like most of our list as CBH pointed out), he'll come along well.

All he showed me was that he can't hit a target, and basically does very little. Tapscott is the man on our list who may struggle to see the ball but uses it well, we can't take Jetta too.

Jetta attempted to wipe out Lindsay Thomas, for his efforts the Melbourne 'faithful' should forever be indebted to Neville.

I know you're joking, but I'm beyond jokes myself. Anyone see how bad he was outside of the Port game? Ship him out!

He's had Injury issues for 2 yrs, and hasn't been able to get a proper pre-season. With the new regime, I reckon he will flourish. How long has he got on his contract?

Moloney GONE
Jurrah GONE
Bate SHOULD GO
Jetta KEEP ON 1 YEAR DEAL
Bennell SHOULD GO
Petterd KEEP ON 1 YEAR DEAL
Green GONE
Cook HAVEN"T SEEN ENOUGH TO MAKE AN INFORMED DECISION
MacDonald KEEP
Lawrence GONE

100% agree HFF

Not up to it.

Neeld needs to complete the clean out in one hit.
No room for favourite player's who "might" come good

All jokes aside, I like Jetta. Been hampered with injuries for a couple of seasons now. I think if he's given a solid pre-season he'll definately slot into our best 22.

With Jetta I would hold onto him unless we can find a suitable replacement. He may not be talented but he works hard and goes hard at the ball, and I'd take a player like that over someone with no work ethic. If we can replace him though, yes get rid of him.

Moloney GONE
Jurrah GONE
Bate HAS TO GO
Jetta HAS TO STAY
Bennell HAS TO GO
Petterd HAS TO GO (UNFORTUNATELY)

MacDonald KEEP

Evans HAS TO GO - CAN'T STAY FIT
Couch HAS TO GO - DIDN'T PERFORM WHEN GIVEN A CHANCE
Bartram HAS TO GO - BODY NO GOOD
Fitzy/Davis - Resign as rookie perhaps? Draft some better talent....

You're suggesting ten players off the main list? I know we're shit, but that's such a stretch...

For what it's worth, Cook will stay, and we wouldn't even contemplate putting Fitzpatrick/Davis on the rookie list - that relies on everyone else passing them up through the ND and the RD up to wherever we select them.

The club has said there could be a 10 player change over this off-season, Moloney, Green, Jurrah and Rivers already gone so we are nearly halfway there, wouldn't surprise me if we lost another 6

 

[RandB]

So Rivers leaving is done and dusted?

That'd have to include the rookie list - which I didn't mention - as there's no way that Cook, Fitzpatrick and Davis will leave the main list.

No way.

You would think that it's 50/50. Neeld has said money and length of contract is not an issue, it's down to whether he wants to chase success or stick with the club. Ball is well and truly in his court.

No way.

The club was talking about the senior list, they said could be 10 not defintely 10, we need spots for draft picks, 3,4,13,26 at least, picking up free agents, and they have said they are going to be active in trade week. Cook, Fitzpatrick and Davis won't be delisted but they could be involved in a trade.
