    I hope not. The two years to Redders is an interesting thing. We could've left both uncontracted and picked one, Redders or Crameri.

      Cloke has one year left I just don't see his role next year? Surely there is more upside with Redpath and Crameri.

        Thing is, unfortunately, two have legal binding contracts and the other doesn't. The club must have thought about list spots when Redders manager was talking contracts, and foresaw this might happen and that they're happy with it/happy to lose him for nothing.

        I'm curious as to why. He was a big signing, cost a lot to get here and is talented.

          There's probably no room for him but seriously, who kicks the goals next year?

          We're really light on for natural goal kickers

            I would've prefered Campbell to find a new home for the spot. But that's not reality. Crameri & Honey are to a new home, or career.

              Would be a pretty big call from grace if Crameri isn’t on a senior list.

              Personally would have preferred we kept him in place of Roarke Smith or Campbell

                Same here. If his head is switched on he could be a good player for us.

                      As long as his body is good he is worth re signing.

                        Then we still have to delist him, and pick him up with pick 82. We don't have a spot available anymore. Unless a contracted player quits.

                            In: 3 picks/players at the draft (minimum), Trengove, Crozier, Schache

                            6 players in - so we need six players out

                            Out: 1. Bob 2. Boyd 3. Hamilton 4. Stringer 5. Honeychurch 6. *the only uncontracted player is Crameri

                            - Either a player quits or Stew is delisted
                            - If he nominates for the national draft we can draft him with pick 82
                            - If he nominees for the rookie draft we can draft him with 9

                            We can't offer him a contract. There's no spot available as it stands today, or tomorrow unless another player quits their contract.

                                The irony of the way the Stringer dealings were handled by the Bombers and Stringer's manager is that Stringer has screwed his good mate Crameri's chances on being on a list.
