Hey guys if Chris Johnson,Setanta O'Hailpin and Brad Fisher perform well and get another contract.Anderson and Browne get kept for another years as they both senior players. 2 guys on our list Caleb Tiller and Rhys O'Keefe could be put on the rookie list if some tough decision need to be made to get a few new guys.

Some will say these guys have had only 2 years on the list but they both have been injured and can be kept as rookies.The rookie list is their to look at players with injuries or not developed to senior players yet while keeping your list strong.They still do their developing while keeping our list strong with depth players.

I don't believe other clubs will snap them just like that they didn't for Jake Edwards who was a more earlier pick who was a near key position player.
 
Fisher I guess it depends on how he goes in the next five weeks or so.

Fisher won't get another contract.

Setanta is contracted for 2011.

Hadley, Fisher, Anderson and Wiggins are as good as gone.

Something like this I think.

Fisher will be given his 2 games to get to 100 and thats it. Wiggler, if he couldnt break into our forward line during our slump, has to be gone.
 
I wouldn't say that Fisher is definitely gone at all.

He may be up against it but if he performs well over the next few weeks he could easily win himself another contract.

I posted in another thread that I wouldn't mind seeing one or both of O'Keefe and Tiller 'demoted' to our rookie list for next season so it certainly is an option that the club may explore.

No sure it would be smart playing a guy to give him a milestone when we are fighting for a top 8 spot. Fisher is definitely playing for his career over the next few weeks, but he earnt his spot through good VFL form. I do agree about Wiggins, though.

Is Chris Johnson contracted? I don't see much of a future persisting with him unfortunately.

I'm sure his contract up this year after 2 years.His playing for a new contract i expect.He did a good job last week and a was ok in a couple of games early.He hasn't been that good especially last year.His fate will come in the next few weeks if he was going to get a contract. I read online last year they said it was a mistake recruiting him for 2 years.He may stay on if they seen a lot of improvement under pressure in games.I guess it depends on depth and a place in the 22 and more to persist then guys like Anderson and Browne.I don't really rate him to tell the truth his dad was absolute star although.He could turn games.

I agree but we won't beat Collingwood with just a small forward with in experience talls and a weak defence.They expected to kick over 20 goals this week we need to at least have a shoot out or Waite in the backline.
 
Fisher not sure off, depends what he does in the last five games. especially with a lack of marking talls we have. The rest including thorton should be traded, simple as that. We need to trade in order to get the balance right on our list. kpp players required.

Setanta has been given 5 years and looked to have made it but has showed that is far from the case!

Andrew Carrazzo is talked up as a B Grader maybe we should trade him and Walker both might get a good pick for?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_CarrazzoThornton won't get much now you need to trade good players like Simpson,Walker,Carrazoo,Waite,Bower,Jamison etc to get something good in return.

Chris Johnson hasn't put a foot wrong this year. He's really hardened up since last season, if he keeps this up I reckon we'll keep him.

Yep. You can really tell he is a man on a mission this season, and good on him. Hasn't done his future any harm at all the way he is applying himself so far.
