No Milburn?

Jimmy, Scarlett, Otto & Ling are probably are four highest paid players.

Maybe we'll be cashed up for a recruit next off season.

Agreed...plus we lose half of the salary of whoever takes Milburn's spot on the vets list, probably either Enright or Chapman, and they'd be on very good money.

So I'd say conservatively Ling + Ottens + Mooney + Milburn + half of other salary is well over a million, and that doesn't even take into account other possible retirements.

So, given that you're mandated to pay 92.5 of the cap, and the gap between that and 100 % is about 650k ish, it means we're either recruiting in the off season, or heavily heavily frontloading contracts in 2012.

Please don't canvass that possiblity, I need to be able to sleep at night.

The four certain retirements are Ling, Ottens, Mooney and Milburn.

Scarlett can play as long as he likes, Corey (subject to fitness) and Wojo (subject to form) would be the other possibilities.

As it relates to this contracts thread, the player contracts that I know of (OP can add them if he likes):

End of 2012
Selwood
Podsiadly
Hawkins
West (i think)
Corey
Smedts
Guthrie
Horlin-Smith
Schroder

End of 2013
Lonergan
Mackie

As far as I know everyone else would be out of contract at the end of 2011, but re-signings will start soon you would think.

EDIT: Fozza, all those blokes on your list are correct. Blake wasn't delisted as he had a contract, Drum signed for 2 so he's uncontracted at the end of the year, and the 09 draftees are out of contract too.

Of the youngsters, Gillies is also out of contract isn't he? You would assume Hogan is too, as would be Mitch Brown and Motlop.

And of the senior players, you would think Kel, SJ, Chapman etc are out of contract at the end of this year because I've haven't read anything about them re-signing, unless anyone else knows otherwise.

Milburn and Wojo are definitely on 1 year deals, our guys over 30 only get rolling 1 year deals.

I'm fairly sure Cookie made a comment late last year about this that may have been lost in all the publicity about Chris's appointment. I think he said something along the lines of there being some financial house keeping matters that had to be cleaned up but that re-signing the required players was at the top of Balmey's to do list. I'm with Big Fozza, I'll be relieved when I read that Harry and Jimmeh are locked away.

You would assume it was an issue of the tight salary cap not enabling the club to give contract extensions, because there's some quality players we have coming out of contract.

With Ablett's money gone from the cap, and close to certain knowledge about impending retirements, there should no longer be such an impediment, so I will be a bit concerned if I don't hear re-signing news soon into the new season.
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

Sorry P.O., I'm only asking about those guys' contracts. I have no idea how long Varcoe is contracted for, but hoping for an indefinite one.

Why? This is a thread created for discussion relating to the players that will be out of contract at the end of this year.
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

I'm not at all worried about Bartel and Taylor. They will be Cats for life IMO.

Everyone we are discussing in this thread is uncontracted at the end of this year, including Varcoe.

He (Varcoe), Jimmy and Harry are the three I am most concerned about stitching up long term, along with Kelly and SJ (and I'd also like to know Chappy's contract status).

If we can have all those signed up again by mid year, along with Menzel, Duncan, THunt and Motlop, we will have shored up the important parts of our list for the next few years.

Hard to find concrete evidence PO,but Scarlett,Bartell,Ling,Kelly, Chappy,Selwood,and Corey all signed contracts 2008.Chappy was last remember Harley saying he would take what money was left.

You would be forgiven for thinking Chappy's contract would be the same in time as the rest, up in 2011.

Note EXCEPTIONS Selwood 2012 young gun.
Corey 2012 signed extension in 2010.

Can't find any thing on S.J.

Yeah I read several articles indicating that (and the Chappy stuff) but all those contracts are up at the end of 2011 as far as I'm aware.

Corey is correct too, hopefully his knee can get through another 2 years.

Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

I didnt realize chappy, Kelly and varcoe all come out as well. Balmey- get the pen working matey!
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

Chappy got a 4 year contract last time.
So I think he is clear through to 2012

Absolutely. :eek:
Varcoe is most certainly the target behind Sheedy's subterfuge.
From our club anyway...
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

TV is out of contract at the end of this season I think..

We would need to sign Bartel Taylor Varcoe Menzel Duncan etc as a priority

I would hate for the younger promising talent to be lured back to their home state i.e. Duncan Menzel etc
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

If anyone has time can you do up an updated list of all players when their contracts expire? If not I'll do one during the week
 
Re: Uncontracted players at the end of 2011

i've updated the OP - I've used the info in this thread to make the list so please correct me if it's wrong. I'll try to keep this updated throughout the year.

Thanks Fozza, I have noticed that a few club boards on here have rolling contract threads (i.e. ones that get updated as people re-sign) and I think it's a really user friendly way to do it, so it would be awesome if you do that with this one.

That would make sense because I suspect he'll take Milburn's spot on the vets list at the end of the year so they probably backended the contract to take advantage of that, given the salary cap squeeze we had in 09 and 10.

No sources SJ - just guesstimations. I'll add sources as they come out in the media.

I can't be ****ed going thru previous press releases but will add as they come out

If anyone feels inclined to find/add sources I can add to OP
