I think that's called a transcript.

Ok a transcript.

Seriously what is going on with Smith. It’s Round 21, he’s one of the most high profile players in the AFL and there is no noise anywhere about him.

That's what makes me think it's a done deal despite azabob and his Jeemak "trade Dunkley" vibe with Sydney.

There's no talk about him because he's declared himself off limits.

6 year big deal incoming.

I have my spies enquiring about this.

I'm not as sure as you are EW.

I'm wondering whether aza has the requisite conviction to really push ahead with this.

If there's one thing I know about aza, it's that he's like a dog with a bone and never lets up...no wait, that's BAD.

Aza could go any way. Maybe you should teach him what it takes.

Have you got any tips Jee for when you're doubting yourself.

You've done so well to see it through

I’ll show you… I’ll show all of you…

How many players do you think will be de-listing at the end of the season?

Who are the more likely de-listings and the possible ones?

To help, I found this obscure list of who is out of contract at the end of this season. Makes me wonder why we don't use it more.

Jason Johannisen: 2022
Toby McLean: 2022
Josh Dunkley: 2022
Rhylee West: 2022
Alex Keath: 2022 - Has apparently met a trigger for another season.
Josh Schache: 2022
Bailey Smith: 2022
Louis Butler: 2022
Riley Garcia: 2022
Zaine Cordy: 2022
Taylor Duryea: 2022
Mitch Wallis: 2022
Stefan Martin: 2022
Charlie Parker: 2022 (Rookie)
Robbie McComb: 2022 (Rookie)
Cody Raak: 2022 (Rookie)

[soupman]

I think the probable departures are: Wallis, Dunkley, Hunter, Martin, Butler

And the possible ones are: Smith, Crozier (contracted so unlikely), Cordy, Schache (think at least one of these will go if we get talls in), Duryea, McLean, Williams, JJ

Think we are gonna do the Will Hayes move with McComb. Go out of our way to put games into him, hoping he becomes AFL quality, give him the one year extension then immediately decide we have no interest in playing him anymore. Kind of what we've done with Roarke Smith, we finally decided we actually rated him and gave him a 2 year contract and then completely threw away our MC objective of trying to shoehorn him into the side at all times.

Also as an aside we are gonna have some amazing Guernsey numbers to hand out this year (and not many candidates to take them). The probables alone are 3, 5, 7, 8 and 18, and possibles add 6, 9, 12, 13, 15, 16, 34 and 39 into the mix. That's basically all our most prestigious numbers.

[azabob]

Other than 2 or 3 of the unsigned list would we even bat an eyelid if they were not at the club in 2023?

[GVGjr]

At a quick guess:

Butler, Cordy, Schache, Wallis and Martin are in the most doubt and perhaps 2 or 3 out of Johannisen, Dunkley, Hunter and Williams will be gone as well.
I also wonder about if Duryea plays on? Very good player but is struggling to play enough games.

What might happen to our rookies?
Parker has really struggled with injuries, McComb has played a lot but there has to be some doubts and Raak hasn't shown a great deal.
They probably all stay with just a slight doubt on Raak.

So to me it looks like 7 players might be moved meaning that we might bring in 3 players from other teams leaving 4 players from the draft.

We are super un-ruthless with fringe types so McComb will get another contract you'd expect. Raak is cat B so "free" to keep on, and Parker has shown some good signs so seems unlikely to be cut.

We've locked in Bailey Smith!!
