Costs 15k to upgrade a rookie does it not?

Waste of money considering he's done nothing over two years to be worthy of an upgrade, why reward him now. McKenzie, Valenti and even Spencer had earnt their places on the list.

Zomer is gone.
 
Can't agree with that, Newton was at least kicking goals for the Casey 1st's rather than the Casey reserves like Zomer had been.

I'm aware that Zomer did play in the ruck in some of the games he played in the 1st's but in the games that I saw where he was up forward he did very very little.

I think it's pretty much guaranteed that Zomer is gone from the club as it's his 2nd year on the rookie list if I'm not mistaken? Although the club could re-rookie him right?

Wouldn't have minded seeing him this week either to be honest, gives us something new to watch at least.





I think I have to agree with you Dez, I just found out he is named CHB in the 2's. I don't think he can be re-rookied, as it is a 2 year thing. Maybe he will stay at Casey & after Newton, Miller & Johnson are gone, maybe he will shine & get re-listed in 2010 draft....

I have finally thrown in the towel Wattsy....
 
It's actually kind of surprising that he doesn't dominate in the Casey 1's, he's got a bigger build that Newton and is pretty quick on the lead one would think he'd do a lot better than he has.

I would think he'd be able to manhandle most defenders in the VFL due to his size but doesn't appear to be the case.

y don't we go with that guy that they showed highlights of on the footy show. Could steal another star (like Jurrah) as first pick in PSD
 
thoughts on cogs now that he's no longer required at richmond? granted he is injury prone.. but he is a gun. could get 3-4 years out of him
 
Majak, will be good though he is very raw and inconstant. Would go a early rookie though.

Yeah, he probably won't go in the main draft, but he could certainly attract a rookie pick.

As you say, very raw, but the talent and athleticism is something which will excite recruiters.

No. He would only hold up the development of another young midfielder.

A sad story no doubt, but I just don't see too much value to be gained from acquiring him.
 
If Max Bailey gets delisted by hawthorn could it be a possibility to go after him if we get rid of Johnson or someone

Nah, he busted his good knee today against the Bombers, so there's no way anyone is going to want him.

Depending on who we draft this year we may not need him. I agree that when up & firing Cogs is great, but his best is behind him. Could possibly go in the Pre-Season Draft.

I think the minimum that has to be paid is 92.5%, which I'm guessing we have to do until we're out of debt as a requirement of the AFL's funding.

Correct, we're currently paying 92.5% of the salary cap... However, we have a number of players who have front-ended contracts... So they're receiving more now, and will receive less in years to come... So while we're paying 92.5% out of the bank account, we're effectively paying an amount less than this...

This will allow us to have more room in the future, to pay our upcoming stars, or land a big fish from another club...

And this is a good read/explanation of this:
