Re: Dogs Make List Changes
Moved fast.
Lower is a surprise.
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
I'm a bit 50/50 with Lower, good tagger but doesn't have alot of other tricks, Wallis coming on and playing that role with also Smith and Picken being able to lock down players has really pushed Lower out, plus we need to inject some more class and polish to the squad, I wonder if Stevens could also play a similar role down the track if required.

Players developed a lot quicker than every one thought. I think he was well worth the selection

Surprised Howard hasn't been cut to be honest, perhaps they thought the above players had no trade value and hence were cut now.
Howie has youth on his side and maybe is still in contract.
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
The lower selection was to add grunt and depth to our midfield.
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
I reckon Marko Will Captain Our VFL Team and work in player welfare
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
A little surprising, but understandable.
Howard and Pearce are the two interesting ones for mine. Personally I hope we cut both.

I see lots of posts calling for Pearce to go and I just don't understand why.
He has been on the list 2 years and I believe had some injury/illness issue early this year.
Whenever I have seem him play he shows dash and I think he deserves at least a little more time before he is cast aside.

He'd consider himself very unlucky, but I just don't think he has enough to offer at AFL level. Two years in and I am not really sure what his strengths are -- perhaps appetite for the contest. I would consider rookie listing him.
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
These are just the gimmes, I'm expecting a number more in the coming months after the trade/free agency period, then again at final list lodgements.

Who do you think will be cut Grey?
Howard, Pearce and Addison?
Re: Dogs Make List Changes
If Cross & Lower are gone, but Gia & Boyd are staying on, is Brett Goodes in any danger?

Yes, no, possibly.
Addison will stay I unless we can find someone during trade week to replace him. Thinking Crameri or similar and I think we'll manage that. So he would be delisted as part of our final list lodgement
I'd delist Cordy but we won't because he has 2 years left on his contract, so I'd try to see if there's any takers out there for him in trade week to get out of his contract, an exchange of picks would be enough. I'd also delist Williams but this was discussed a month or so ago and it won't happen this year. They're both taking up list spots we could better utilise.
So who I predict will also be delisted;
Howard
Addison
Redpath
Greenwood
And potentially 1 or 2 traded out.

I'm staggered to be honest. He was excellent on Garlett a week ago( he was lucky to be recalled) Should be given time .
Howard's in trouble as with Greenwood, and Redpath
