Ahh yep, cheers. Had '28 in my mind for some reason.2027, when Tassie is supposed to be coming in.

Not that I'm aware of. Expect 2 for Reidy, and 3 for Ainsworth.Chesser for 2yrs
Have the others been mentioned on their tenure?
Reidy?
Ainsworth (prev was until 2028)?

Durdin to Port helps a lot in this regardLooks like there's going to be some tough calls on players.
We currently only have 2 list spots available.
Yeah.Durdin to Port helps a lot in this regard
I think you’re spot on with those potential namesYeah.
You’d think Lij is no chance to stay, which would give us 3 spots.
Reckon Gov only a chance to stay if the Buku deal falls through, and maybe not even then.
There’s 4 unsigned (or at least unannounced) rookies.
And of the contracted senior players, maybe we move Binns or Acres or Fog?
I assume Ainsworth in means the final nail in the coffin for Elijah (delisted and paid out), and that if Khamis comes in, McGovern is definitely gone.Looks like there's going to be some tough calls on players.

We could pickup Leek Alir for cheaper than we'd have to pay for Buku now that StKilda have shafted him.Yeah.

That still leaves us 3 Senior spots less one surplus rookie, but we could solve all those problems by upgrading Evans when drafting Dean and Ison.
Having said that, I don't expect all 3 of the other uncontracted rookies to be retained. Perhaps one is released so we have a SSP place (for Stephenson if he shows something)? Dunno. We might still want to be looking at a couple of our NGA guys for rookie spots too.
EDIT: Late to the party, as ever...
Mid 30s is laying on the mayo though isn’t it?2027, when Tassie is supposed to be coming in.

Very similar stats (except buku can go forward - which isn't where we'd play him) and leek is 4cm taller.
Mid 30s is laying on the mayo though isn’t it?
Assuming a finishing position of pick 16, this year there is two FA compos for example, add 7 Tassie picks, that’s roughly 25.
I’m not saying it’s a good offer but the impact of the Tassie draft keeps growing
Going off your comments previously regarding list spaces, does the lack of list spaces make a multiple player trade for Charlie unrealistic?I said maybe 30s, rather than mid 30s.
It’s likely there will be more than 2 compo picks, plus when you factor in FS/NGA/academy bids.
And that’s ignoring the pre-listed players taken out of the draft.
Yes, you're right. Maybe we use a third National Draft pick as well as upgrading Evans.If Lij and Gov go out and Buku comes in, it would be 4 Senior spots available, but 1 extra Rookie.
Not sure we’d leave a spot open for SSP.

Hayward and Florent for example plus picks, does that type of trade contradict our available list spots?
Was also wondering why we wouldn’t give Hollands until May to sort his life out, he’s contracted so we have to pay him regardless, why not put him in the VFL and ask him to take a weekly drug test or something to be able to play?
If he fails, you move him on and open up a MSD pick, if he fixes his crap, we have a quality player

I don't like the idea of locking down our rookie list on 21 November, but I guess we might. Flynn Young deserves another 12 months to build on what he has shown so far, and Charleson is still young.
If it were me, I would cut White and ask him to train on against Stephenson and whoever out of Gresham/Clarke goes undrafted, and pick up the best one in the SSP.
Cutting Frank now would be insanity. Not just because of his form in the 2nd half of the season, but because it would kill our culture to trade out someone who has put their body on the line and really played for the jumper.Yeah, I’d be surprised and disappointed if we cut any of Frank, Charleson or Flynn Young.
I like WW too, but he’d be the 4th ranked of the unsigned rookies.
Maybe we get a late offer for one of the contracted players we’d be happy to move on?
And we still have Khamis (potentially) and Hayward (potentially) to add.Looks like there's going to be some tough calls on players.

Hasn't Frank re-signed for another year?Yeah, I’d be surprised and disappointed if we cut any of Frank, Charleson or Flynn Young.

Not the first time. Apparently we've re-signed Monahan as well according to an Irish tabloid, but nothing from the club.Probably, but the Club hasn’t announced it yet.
Inactive List now. Think they need to be out for the entire season vs swapping out with another player, say in July.Wouldn’t HOF be on the LTI list for next year which would open up another spot (until he returns ) ?
