Chris Fagan noted that Sam Day played with in second half of the year, I think a few here gave Sam a bit bagging,which I think was bad!!!

Sam Day retires as Brisbane announce two de-listings​

Day played 168 AFL games in total, including 13 for the Lions. Fagan thanked him for playing through a fractured wrist in the second half of the season, which he'll now have surgery to repair.

Sam did his job. He filled the void while Ty was developing and injured. Smart recruitment.

  • McKenna 1 year extension
  • Joyce 1 year extension
  • McCarthy delisted, taking him in the rookie draft.
"The Brisbane Lions confirm the Club has finalised its list changes ahead of next month’s draft." So, assume Ah Chee will head to the draft.
 
"The Brisbane Lions have gone international in a bid to further improve their list, signing one of Ireland’s young rising Gaelic stars Ben Murphy.

Securing the talented 18-year-old’s signature as a Category B rookie comes almost two years after the Lions first identified the Kerry and Austin Stacks midfielder."
 
OK, so one of Brain or Reville needs to be upgraded from a Category B rookie to make way for the new Irish rookie.

We have a full Cat A rookie list of 6 players.

5 picks going to the draft, one of those picks will be used to upgrade a Cat B rookie, so 4 live picks at the draft, or we keep a couple of spots open for the SSP.
