Spent last year injured, but improving. This is the report from last weeks VFL game.I did write that on April 9 and Bolton wasn't getting a game as first year players were going past him so keep your pants on.

Derek Eggmolesse-Smith
17 disposals, six handball receives & three rebound-50s
“Playing off half-back, he looks like he’s a promising type with his left foot, and uses the ball really well, runs and carries. It wasn’t a great day for the run-and-carry, but his critical one-on-one wins stood out.”
Short stays, houli will only be going around for another year tops and with the inclusion of stack, short replaces houli in our back six.Out: Butler, Weller.
Grigg (retirement).
Would be a saving of $800K?
Short must be considered too, but he is a back-up, in case Houli is injured.
The key priority is to develop/recruit a key position intercept defender.
Next year, Markov can go.
Chol too if he does not improve.
I'd say exceeded expectations so far. Yah never know.don't think we will delist or trade Egg
Cant see Miller delisted as talls get a pass in their first years especially players regarded as project players. can see him get another 2 year contract.My best guess at this juncture:
Grigg retires
Miller delisted and re-rookied
Chol delisted
Weller delisted
BEllis to go as a RFA
Callum Moore traded
Baker to be put on primary list.

Don't forget that upgrades can count towards your 3 pics in the draft.To be honest, I hope so. I like Miller and his potential.
I’m just struggling to see who else we could to get rid off to create sufficient room for not just the new draftees but also guys like Baker to be upgraded to the main list.
With Balta, CCJ and to a lesser extent Millers Development surely this is soldos last year with us
J Marsh got picked in the saints side this week. Lets see how he goes.2019: Butler, Grigg, Weller.
2020: Chol, Markov, ...
It's not a disrespect to Butler but with Baker, Bolton, Ross and Stack it is difficult to regain selection.
Ellis and Web-Kam have struck good form which makes it difficult for Markov.
Recruit a key position intercept defender.
Rance is ageing and it is too much sole burden for Grimes, week-in week-out.
If he and/or Vlaustin sustain injury we are done in finals.
Yer that’s a tough one I don’t reckon Soldo is good enough to make it at AFL level but to be fair to the bloke he continues to improve at VFL level.With Balta, CCJ and to a lesser extent Millers Development surely this is soldos last year with us
Far too early for this type of thread. However based on what we have seen so far this year and on the last 2 years I would predict:
Delisted:
Townsend - possibly re-rookied but I doubt it
One of Markov/Menadue
Chol - doubt he'll make it now
Egg Smith (is he even on the list?)
Traded
Butler/Bolton (only to WA)
Others
Assuming Grigg comes back from injury he'll probably go for one more year. A fit Grigg will play on a wing in front of Macca and BEllis.
Doubt BEllis will leave on FA unless he isn't in the senior team come finals time (assuming we make it).
Houli gets one more based on current form
Soldo - only stays due to lack of ruck back up. If CCJ comes on in leaps and bounds, he is in danger.
Weller - would want to get more game time in 2019 or could make way to free up a spot.
With Balta, CCJ and to a lesser extent Millers Development surely this is soldos last year with us
what's the rule on upgrading a rookie to the main list? Do we have first dibs on players on our list?We will need to free up 2 spots for Stack and Baker on the senior list plus have at least 3 spots going in the ND
Senior list
Grigg (retired), Butler (traded), Moore (traded or delisted), Ellis (free agency), Markov or Menadue traded.
Rookies
Chol, Weller, Townsend (delist)
Yeah somestimes it just does'nt turn out the way you planned for...the best laid plans of mice and men...etc...etc...think maverick is a gonner. he has really fallen off the cliff
