I think it's very conceivable. They can't keep everyone. There are a few out of contract at the end of this year and he's one of them.
If he stays fit and plays some more footy like the game he produced on Sunday, he's some chance to survive.
And I, for one, would be OK with that.
If he plays out the year in reasonable form, I don't see the point of walking him for a 'late' pick.
But without more retirements and delistings from the senior list than I would foresee right now, even the minimum list change requirement might see him out this time around.
