Delistings

[EasternWest]

Just saw on twitter some surprise delistings

Ryan Gamble from Geelong : would we look here?

Skipper & Taylor both gone from Hawthorn - that surprises me a bit, even with Hale coming on board.

I would take a punt on Gamble. Bad joke aside, I would.

I'd be very surprised if we go for retread with any of our late picks.

Well the Rookie list is being further expanded this year with the two new teams coming in, so I'd be surprised if we don't rookie at least one player that has been on another list.

Some teams are pruning pretty hard. It's going to be interesting to see how deep we cut and who we choose to replace them with. I'm almost looking forward to the Rookie draft more than the ND.

He is an idiot, a first class imbecile & I'd hate for the kids watching Williamstown to have to put up with his foul mouth tirades each week.

Wow that's strong TCD, sounds like he's Brett Thornton's little brother!

Didnt Ed Barlow recently come down to the club and impress?

I dont see much point in picking him up, apart from him potentially playing as the 22nd man...the sub (or spud!)

With Veszpremi, Sherman, Hooper and Djerrkura coming onto the list, plus Libba and Wallis, there may only be opportunity for another outside hard running wingman (assuming Sherman is also going to play on a wing)....we have a few options now for our forward line...

Anyone on the de-listing list fit the bill????

You wouldn't quite hear those things in that Superbox across the road!

[LostDoggy]

Still waiting for an invite to the Superbox. You, TCD?

[LostDoggy]

Skipper to the rookie list? Surely we can get him over the line for life membership?

If Minson had gone, I would have rookied Skip(if eligible) in preferance to getting Setanta.

If it wasn't for things falling his way in 2004 where they got Roughead and Franklin because Richmond are Richmond, his record would be shitfull.

Pelican can't even claim credit for Buddy and Roughy because they were drafted by Gary Buckenara.

Call me an idiot if you want, but I wouldn't mind rookie listing Brad Miller as a back up tall defender. I thought he was ok when played in defense, he just had to be pushed forward because of Melbourne's many young tall defenders. He's at least a better option then Markovic. Plus he has a hot Mrs, so we should definitely get him.

You're an idiot! Just kidding

I thought about Miller as well, but we're probably a little hamstrung by the salary cap. We drafted Markovic in the national draft so he's on a 2 year contract, if we want to delist him we'll have to pay out his contract and that will count against the cap, and I don't think we can afford to have both Miller and Markovic on the list as back up defenders. I makes the decision not to try and get Markovic in the rookie draft even more restrictive.

So he has no justification at all for his swagger and self appointed tittle of recruiting genius. What a knob!

You just want to get him onto the 'Ekers' thread

I think he'll end up at Tigerland and will allow Jack Reiwoldt to remain closer to goal.

LOL I don't think I've ever seen you put something so bluntly TCD. I take it you didn't have a good experience when we played Box Hill?

He spent more time swearing at the kids behind the goals than playing footy. Of course, when the kids knew they had him, they ramped it up, so did he.
