Maric Delisted

Disappointed in this, there are much more worthy delistees.

Maybe the club had come to an agreement with him?
 
What about the supposed accuracy percentage for kicking for goal? Wasn't his goal kicking ability supposed to come from the planet Krypton or something?

I wish him all the best. I maybe wouldda given him one more year. But eh

A club that wants to rise up again to become a powerful club competing in premierships needs to make hard decisions in the best interest of the club.

Good luck to Addam, hopefully he gets a chance somewhere else.

What a waste of a pick Addam Maric was,has some ability but did we have to draft someone so small?Another one for Baileys obsession with midfielders!

What? You'd rather we had a team full of 195cm players? We'll be thanking Bailey and his midfield draftees in a few years when we have a gun midfield that runs 12 deep. Trengove, McKenzie, Gysberts, Tapscott, Grimes, Blease (Viney) etc.

That was a myth. It is true that he had the highest ever goal accuracy % ever recorded, but it was based on a very small sample size (something like 12.3 from a handful of games in the TAC Cup).

As it turns out he was handy around goals but nothing special. Disappointing to see him delisted, almost certainly the right call but he is one player I had high hopes for and he delivered zilch. Add him to the list!
 
Good call. The guy never looked interested. Talented, but lazy and not the type who would fit in a 'zone' style gameplan, which Neeld will most likely bring to the table next year. A little unlucky in that he deserved a few more games to show his skills, but just never showed enough at VFL level to warrant getting too many more games than what he did.

I wish him no luck at another club however. I've never understood why we would wish him all the best for an opposition side? He never fitted in at Melbourne. Good riddance i say. The next de-listing will be a tough call though. Wona or Fitzpatrick??? Whoever it is will surely be put on our rookie list, but there could be a chance another club will take them! Will be a tough call from Neeld...

Well said. People are degrading bailey to the ground when he's neither had a bad word to say about us nor did he do much wrong but follow the trajectory the great sides have taken. 186 was breaking point, as was the gameplan, but he wasn't the Devil and Neeld atm is nobody
 
Bad move, we need a small forward and the kid never got a chance. How was he meant to develop when he was in and out of the team every second? There are heaps of other players that should have went before him...Newton and McNamara, Campbell to name a few....

It's a tough call, but name a player who should of been delisted instead? (Quick hint, try someone off the senior list not 3 rookies like you listed above ;))


Also Campbell has retired, McNamara and Johnston have been dumped from the rookie list. JUICE LIVES for a few more days

FFS everyone, we barely had any other choice! He may not deserve it ahead of some others, but those others are either contracted or ON THE ROOKIE LIST. See: Newton, Campbell, Johnston, MacNamara. These three do not count as the minimum 3 delistings we have to make in order to meet drafting regulations.

As a side note, the last 2 there have been delisted FROM THE ROOKIE LIST and Campbell has officially retired... again.

This news leaves us with one more delisting to make FROM THE SENIOR LIST. That will be either Wonaeamirri or Fitzpatrick, and I reckon they haven't yet decided which it will be - maybe they're waiting on some form of commitment from Wona re: not going home again next year.

Yes, I agree that the likes of Dunn, Bate and Spencer may have been delisted first in a perfect world, BUT GET IT IN YOUR HEADS THAT ALL 3 ARE CONTRACTED FOR NEXT YEAR. It's not going to happen.
As for Maric, it's unfortunate given how talented he is, but he was never going to pull his finger out by the looks.

Start writing a letter of complaint to express post, email & telegram to the club at 5:00pm on October 31, which is 1st list lodgement day. I reckon you'll easily get 10,000 signatures

Surely Maric will get a go at another club, even if its on a rookie list. I'd be amazed if he didn't. It's not like he played like shit, he just didn't do quite enough.
