What's the comparison between what we got in this year to Gold Coast getting in last year?

Experience wise they only got Broughton and Tom Murphy

While as you know we added Shaw, Mumford, Hunt, Addison & Lamb

But by the same token they also added O'Meara, but we have Boyd & Kelly coming in and I would expect those two to make an impact for us.

Is there any more list lodgment dates or is the team finalized now?

Dec 2 is the final list lodgement date, but it seems by the statement put out by the club that our list is now set for 2014

Well hopefully we find out soon about whiley and downie. Also can we still sign internationals?

One of the latest videos on the Giants website has SOS getting very serious when asked stupid questions.

Can someone explain to me why GWS only has one player on its rookie list.

Cap management.

That makes sense with so many players on the primary list. Besides the COLA, does GWS get any other salary concession for it's expanded list?

That and the availability of coaching/development resources I reckon. With so many young players, the footy dept might be a bit stretched if we added more raw players.

There's up to an extra $1m to account for a max list size of 50 senior players. Right now the list rules say 44-50 players and $640k to $1m extra salary cap, so I think the concession varies depending on how many senior players are actually listed (46 next year from memory, so it'll be closer to $640k than $1m)

 

[OrangeDuck]

Or we don't plan on getting any long term injuries to replace them with rookies?

 

[Gigantor]

we don't have rookies because they're all on the senior list!

Today is the final list lodgement with the only question mark being on Whiley & Downie who as far as we know remain uncontracted but most likely there signed 1 year extensions and it just hasn't been announced.
