No.To keep Dyson would have been a bandaid solution along with the others that were delisted. Top 4 was achievable this year, but an unforeseeable run of injuries happened and there was no consistency in the playing group. Reduce the injuries and we are a top 4 side every weekend (might sound biased but the addition of Goddard has a massive flow on effect and will only help out guys like Stanton, Zaharakis and Melksham).
The club is going for sustained success not just a couple of years then a rebuild and so on and so on. They've needed a big clean out for a while and it's obvious that the players that got delisted are viewed as having already reached their potential. No point putting the time effort and resources into someone that just isn't going to improve.
To keep everyone would've been a band-aid. Monfries, Prismall Lonergan and so on
To make 8 main list changes, but keep Ricky Dyson over pick ~80 says exactly the same as what they have done.
There's no statement in this, at all.
