You can have anyone else, just don't take Sinclair plz :)
Haha beat me to it, only difference is I went Ross you went Savage!
 
You're worse than Gill and co, making rules up as you go ;)
In that case i'd swap Roberton for Steele
Ahh cheese and whiskers.

I dunno. I'll be different and swap Bruce out. He can choose which ever list between ours he feels I guess.

You'd keep Jetta over Priddis?
Yep, and it's not because I'm a Priddis detractor. It's because of his age and that we're a chance to fill his role, just to a lesser level for a year or so. Don't think this expansion side would pick Priddis and Redden so the other, Sheed, Shuey, Duggan can hold their own in the contested midfield stakes. Obviously here I, like the club, are banking on Jetta's best re-emerging. Could about as easily elect your option though!

Surprised we haven't got a post from the Blues yet,all they have to do is keep the nine GWS players and pick six more to keep. I know they have an ordinary list but surely they have six players worth keeping.

Haha never thought about it like that, are u a blues fan

Would like to make an expansion team the way the American teams do.

The rules are simple,

expansion team able to select 2 players from each team

Each current team can protect 15 players

All players drafted in 2014 & 2015 are exempt

All rookies are available for selection unless protected

All I need is a list from each team submitted to make my expansion team, so If any one would like to do there team let me no.

ADELAIDE:
Brisbane:
Carlton:
Collingwood: DONE
Essendon: DONE
Fremantle: Done
Geelong:
Gold Coast:
GWS: DONE
HAWTHORN: DONE
Melbourne: DONE
North Melbourne:
Port Adelaide: Done
Richmond: Done
St.Kilda: Done
Sydney:
West Coast: DONE
Western Bulldogs: Done

EDIT: if a player who was drafted on 2014/2015 has been traded they are no longer exempt unless protected

Can see some Blues fans wanting to keep Phillips, Sumner, White, Armfield or Glass-McCasker out of those but much of a muchness I think. Also a little bit of strategy at play in so far as guessing which players an expansion team might take if not protected.

Unprotected: Alex Johnson, Jarrad McVeigh, Harry Cunningham, Jeremy Laidler, Gary Rohan, Callum Sinclair, Dean Towers, Lance Franklin, Daniel Robinson, Michael Talia, Brandan Jack, Nic Newman, Jordan Foote, Harrison Marsh

Left Buddy available because of his age and his contract, no new club would take on such a contract in such a "draft", so better to protect someone else (same reasoning AJ and McVeigh are also left available). Most of the remaining players available have flaws or are replaceable if taken

Huh? Is the contract not void if he departs the club? What am I missing here

New club takes on the current contract if selected hence why leaving Buddy unprotected is smart from a Sydney point of view as either his contract is taken off the books or we get to keep in effect 16 players protected.

Thats how its done in the US with these expansion drafts, clubs have used them to move contracts and protect players they otherwise wouldn't be able to.

Tbh a expansion team has no salary tied to anyone to begin with I believe they would take buddy
