Delists from Other Clubs - Any interest?

[bornadog]

Clubs are now delisting players as surplus to their needs plus the AFL imposes a mandatory 3 changes to every list. We have the discussion going on Setanta and there is a mixed bag. Some players have announced retirements but may still want to play. Blake from Geelong is only 26 and says he is retired.

Any takers for others that have been delisted from other clubs:

Port and North are listed twice.

Not many options there that look appealing tbh, and I'd rather take a chance on a kid who may develop into something more than a gap filler like almost all those players would. O'Hailpin is the exception to that, because he could offer us something none of those other players nor a draftee could.

[Desipura]

Can you please remove those retired or traded?

Ok, thanks - done

Can you please remove those retired or traded?

Ok, for traded, but kept a couple of retired as may still play

[Greystache]

Surely Mark Blake is a lack of football ability related retirement!

O'hAilpin is the only one on that list I'd look at. I might have considered Motlop at minimum wage if we were in a premiership window.

[Rocket Science]

Gavin Urquhart was a reasonable mainstay off half back for North a couple of seasons back but obviously seems to have been squeezed out.

Don't know much more about his circumstances aside from some recent injury hurdles though. Zippy, solid disposal, good endeavour, just 23, still room for improvement.

Could we use a small defender in the Harbrow-light mold?

What about Callum Wilson from the Eagles:

" In his seven games, Wilson kicked 13 goals, with eye-catching hauls of 3.4 against Geelong and 4.3 against North Melbourne in the last two games of 2010 – which proved to be his last games at the club.

Still only 22 years old.

Wonder wht he was delisted and not traded if he is any good.

[LostDoggy]

Wouldn't mind if we picked up Gavin urquhart as I can envisage him one day becoming a damaging half back with his raking kick!

[bornadog]

I think Eagles have lots of options up forward and couldn't crack a game. Having said that I don't remember seeing him.

The other clubs aren't stupid. Often these players are put up for trade by their clubs in the hope that they can get draft picks in return, knowing that if there are no takers the players will be delisted.

The other clubs know this so they take the chance that the player will be available for the preseason, national and/or mature rookie draft, allowing them to retain their draft picks.

I thought Broc McCauley looked alright in the pre season and would be worth a shot on the rookie list.

[Mitcha]

Sorry Chef, couldn't have him.
Ben Ross from North as a mature age rookie would be the only one that I would be half keen on.

[Go_Dogs]

Will Young has played some good roles this year for Norwood and is young (pardon the pun) enough to find another home.

[Sockeye Salmon]

Sydney have delisted Daniel Currie.

He'll get a gig somewhere else you would think. I'd rather Currie to O'Halpin
