Nah, he was playing pretty well before he got injured and he deserves another chance.
Tom was ok before his accident but dont think he would ever be a stand out , think he would have been a Gardner / Brynes type. in and out of the side.

To go:
Spencer (delist)
Playfair (delist)
Gardiner (delist)
Callan (try to upgrade a pick if anyone wants him, otherwise delist)
Byrnes (also try to upgrade a pick if anyone wants him, otherwise delist)
Reynolds

Upgrade:
Grima
Lonergan

Keep on rookie list:
Davenport
Bedford

I think that gives us three draft picks and two rookie picks (with Harley going onto the veteran's list).

People forget that Lonergan was playing a pearler against the Demons in the game he got hurt - I think he deserves another shot ... but I'd only give him a one year contract.

Turbo must be just about at the end of his chances. I've always had faith in him to get there so I'd give him just one more year, because I think he's got all the tools if he can just get the confidence (and improve his kicking). But I'd understand if the club decided to offload him while he still might have some currency.

The other interesting decision, if we wanted a fourth draft pick, would be to trade King to Collingwood for it. The Pies badly need a quality ruckman and might be willing to pay over the odds for him.
 
My delisting order is as follows:

Spencer
Owen
S Hunt
Playfair
Callan
Byrnes

I would probably cut the list at Playfair and promote Grima. This would leave us with 3 draft picks. In the real world however, I think other teams will look for value at the lower end of our list. This will probably dictate who stays and who goes. Trading up draft picks will be the way to go! A 4th round pick will just be of no use to us.

What he said. Be surprised if Callan went thru delisting although he might ask and get traded.
