So when Neitz comes back, does Valenti go back to the rookie list?

Yes but apparently it's a fair injury. Late in the season from early reports, could be early retirement? He can't come back for 8 weeks once put on the LTI list.

i think its actually six weeks but i may be wrong,

listening to neitz tonight he is determined to come back and he will, to play 4 games with the problem he has then to cop a slight tackle to agravate it and be out for 8 weeks does not sound to me like he is finished

Has he officially been put on the LTI list?

If this is the case, then Wonameri will probably get an extended stay in the team ...

I agree. I think Wonaeamirri is currently in for Grimes who might come back soon. So, Neitz on LTI list will probably help Wonaeamirri reach his peak (here's hoping!)

LTI list is for 8 weeks.

The issue is that when Grimes comes back, does Wona or Valenti get demoted.

Exactly, unless they cop another LTI or Yze retires (vets list) mid year which there is some talk about on the Dees board and Bailey may be encouraging by not playing him.

Bailey will want a solid look at both before deciding upon future elevation IMO.

Apparently Valenti has been promoted. Source comes from 3AW apparently.

that would be ole "whispers" from 3AW - who is usually on the money :thumbsu:

i reckon Valenti wouldn't be too far off a game.
stats looked good preseason. 21yr old, i believe. perhaps another Ben McGlynn type rookie.
he might've saved me this week too... allowing to do Dyson -> K.Cornes
please please please give him a game this week. :)

Please, please, please don't trade him in this week. IF he gets elevated, and IF he gets games, you have two games to observe and make a decision on him before you use a trade, two weeks in which one of your other cows will continue to increase. Which means you'll have more cash to play with as Valenti won't change in price until his third game.

Trading him in now is too much of a risk - what if he gets injured first game? What if Grimes is back in a couple of weeks and he gets sent back down to rookie list before his price has a chance to rise? There is limited upside to getting him in now. Ditto for Cotchin. The only time you should draft rookies who haven't played into your team is pre Rd 1.

Exactly. Wait two rounds and then trade for him.

Yesssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!

FINALLY something goes right for my team. Been my extreme smokey on the front bench since R1 and has so far had Lucas, Jetta and Hall for company.

Now play him and SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!!
 
Bailey also said that he had yet to decide who would take Neitz's position but indicated that rookie Shane Valenti would be a likely elevation to the senior list.

still no word on his promotion?

On the Melbourne board they thought an announcement would be made today. If Dean Bailey doesnt promote him, he will take over from Dean Laidley as my most hated DT coach.
 
If he's not promoted Bailey should be sacked as he obviously has NFI.
