Analysis Cuts to Senior List Sizes

[Baygirl1977]

Afl has just released pay cuts ,


AFL player agents were briefed early on Wednesday afternoon regarding the changes.

Sources with knowledge of negotiations believe this deal is a win for players, who at one stage were facing a 15 to 20 per cent cut in salaries.

As first reported by foxfooty.com.au last Thursday, clubs will only be required to select a minimum of one player in December’s national draft, down from three.

Change in List Size numbers

2020 Total List Sizes: 38-47 | 2021 Total List Sizes: 37-44

2020 Primary List: 38-40 | 2021 Primary List: 36-38

2020 Cat A Rookies: 0-6 | 2021 Cat A Rookies: 0-6

2020 Cat B Rookies: 0-3 | 2021 Cat B Rookies: 0-2

Have those been stated anywhere?

Not in specifics yet, but they were expecting it to be pro rata. I think they have a maximum of 40 seniors, up to 10 rookies, and 3 Cat B right? If that's the case I'd expect 38+10+2.

Does the list size apply to gc also?

surely that ridiculous concession is gone

38 + 10
+2 rookie B .

38 + 10
+2 rookie B .

Yeah that’s ridiculous that suns list can still be so big

there’s no reason they should be allowed an extra 6 spots compared to the rest of the comp

no to mention the random rule that they can preload academy players without matching bids

Disagree. They need suns to be competitive to help keep football in qld healthy. However this year means probably has helped football in qld more than anything than if they keep suns afloat. Should see suns list return back in line with others back in 2/3 yrs.

They need to at least scrap the suns being able to pick up academy players without matching bids

that or bring their list size back to the pack

they shouldn’t get both concessions atm

Are we expecting list sizes to drop a further 2 spots in 12 months time?
