Neither am I, but I don't let that stop me
Fenway - I'll send you a bunch of images of African-American actors ... just label their name wrong and call Angus and idiot. Flawless theory.
I also feel that I would need to figure out exactly how the Jake King joke works.

I can explain that - I was personally involved in its inception.
When the Lions were thinking of getting involved with Martin, I suggested it wouldn't be a good idea because of his known off-field issues. I mentioned a few reasons and included the fact that he "invited some bikies into the rooms after a win against the Lions".
I was then quickly informed by about 35 people that it was in fact Jake King who did that.
Those two guys have always blended into one for me. In fact, all of the players from Richmond apart from Rielwoldt seem to be the one guy.

I've given this thread a bit of an update. I think the rumour mill overlaps a bit with the trade news compendium, but I guess it's a more summarised version.
I suspect they'll be some alterations to the OP in the coming week or two.

Yep, exact quote was:
I'm guessing it's been reported elsewhere too, but I hadn't heard it.

With McGuane and maybe Paine coming in, i think it made the decision pretty easy. McGuane would get a game over Ace, and Paine is essentially a younger version of Ace who at 23, can't get into the 22.

With Cornelius, Yeo, Longer, Karnezis, Docherty, Polec, McKeever and Black out and an existing spare slot, we have nine senior positions to fill.
West, Paine and Freeman come in, giving us six positions free.
That gives us draft picks of 7, 22, 25, 28, 33, 34.
This is pending any rookie upgrades, e.g. Clarke, or free agent recruitments, e.g. McGuane.

If I was Todd Banfield, I'd be scared about my place on the Senior list. Most likely candidate for a delist/rookie listing IMO.
Yeah I agree - I would Rookie list him if possible.
Doesn't Clarke basically have to be upgraded given he signed a 3 year deal?

Nope. McKeever signed a two year deal which included one year on the rookie list. Having said that, my expectation is that he gets upgraded because he just looked so at home at AFL level.

Updated after trade week.
Key information
* Currently have 7 senior list spots free prior to the draft (not including Freeman who will take one of those spots)
* Picks are 7, 22, 25, 28, 33, 34, 63
* We cannot take another player via delisted FA/PSD unless we plan to pass on pick 34 or delist someone off the senior list
* 3 rookie list spots free, 1 being a category B (which we'll use to take a Queenslander I assume)
* Next important date is Thursday 31st October, the first list lodgement. We'll find out whether we delist anyone else (we can delist further at a later date), or upgrade any rookies (likely Clarke)
* Draft is on the Thursday 21st November, with the rookie draft the following Wednesday 27th November

The Draft is on the same day as Day 1 of the first test. Well someone didn't think that through.
Nah, fantastic day. Watch the cricket, listen to ABC's commentary, follow the draft online.
This is how I see our senior list changes.
Ins: 6 picks, McGuane, Paine, West, Clarke, Freeman
Outs: Black, McKeever, Cornelius, Banfield, Close (rookie list), Homesick 5
We have one free spot from last year so one more 'in' than 'out'. I would absolutely love us to give Joel Wilkinson or Tom Ledger a go. Surely they are better prospects than Polkinghorne Close could be rookied to give us some flexibility. He's not pushing for senior selection anyway so I don't think it will matter too much.
Those that said list spots wouldn't be an issue were dead wrong. This was never going to be the case with Kerr's customary trading of late picks for established role players and the picks we were receiving for the sooks. Unless we upgraded quite a lot (something I'm glad we didn't do) then guys like Ace, Banfield and McKeever still would not have their chances of staying improved at all.

Bolded is a bit weird. Firstly because he is only one year into his contract and secondly because he has been playing pretty well in the two's by all reports after coming back from injury.
