Not sure how active we will be but it wouldn't surprise me to see at least one of the players we have delisted get picked up by someone. Petterd to a club in QLD springs to mind.

Do you think there are any delisted players that Neeld and the team will look at? I haven't had a thorough look yet at the delisted players. But I have seen a number of names and none of them have really sprung out at me, but I guess that's because they are probably duds or didn't get a chance to show what they had at their old clubs.

Petterd gone, having said that, it would have been nice to match bris offer of Maloney,Traded him to bris, shipped off Martin and petterd to bris... May have bundled 3 and gotten the p33 we were after?

Moloney was done - throwing money at him would have been a massive waste. Brisbane didn't want Petterd or they would've thrown a nothing pick at him. Neeld wanted to clear out what he deemed as trash and he didn't stress too much about what he got back. He's probably backing himself to get something decent @ 53.

I reckon that Melbourne showed their hand a bit too early by being so eager to get rid of players. At least we got rid of the dead wood. I've learnt to not be too optimistic after our draft/trade period, but I like the fact that we're getting rid of players that have stagnated at our club.

Personally I'd like to snag Jacobs in the draft later in the year (considering he's not a delisted FA). In terms of delisted FA there's only a few players I'd think would add to our list (Toy/Flanagan/Gillies), but with list lodgement in a few days there may be more that pop up.
 
Can someone explain to me what the "Delisted FA discussion: Nov 1 - Nov 13" is? So it's like... another Free Agency period for all the player's who've been delisted to find new clubs?

Correct.

Any players who delist themselves though are not eligible, only discards.
 
Looking at it, Toy would be a great pick up..the others probably Lee and Surjan.

So how does that work... if they were offered a contract they aren't a Delisted FA?

As far as targets go, we MUST go after this guy:http://www.bigfooty.com/forum/threads/past-player-callum-papertalk-2012.897418/

Is Toy actually available? I thought he had another year to go on his contract? If not, then, yes would definitely want to pick him up. Has some talent. If not Toy, then I'd look at Surjan or Salopek. I know both are injury prone, but both can play a role and add depth to needed areas.
