Retirements, Trades, Delistings and the Rookie list

Re: Retirements, Trades, Delistings and the Rookie list

I'm assuming Tippett and Jacobs would nominate for the PSD rather than the ND. They will surely want to identify their required salary, rather than be drafted at the base salary?

Didn't Luke Ball when drafted by Coll in the ND put a price on his head?

Yes - previously listed players can nominate a salary pre-draft and clubs must abide my it.
Ball nominated a $500k price that was paid only in the first season.

OK - thanks for clarifying that Mofra and Mantis.

Also refused to talk to any other clubs that were interested and sent word via his manager not to pick him. Apparently that was all above board.

ESSENDON has announced Kyle Reimers and Sam Lonergan have not been offered playing contracts for the 2013 season.

Macca will have his eye on these guys as well being ex Essendon.

Collingwood have had a real cleanout with 13 players traded or delisted.

This is what we needed at the end of 2010. Even this year we still haven't cut deep enough.

Assuming Panos is gone do you think only Vez and Skinner should've gone?

PS - I'm glad Vez is staying - Last chance saloon.

I would have cut both as well.

Skinner should be gone, even though I'm a fan of Vez he is lucky to still be on our list.

Me too.

This year should have been Veszpremi's last chance. He has shown that after many pre-seasons he still isn't fit enough, composed enough with it and able to get enough of it to impact matches.

Re: Retirements, Trades, Delistings and the Rookie list

I don't mind keeping Vez on the list as depth after the retirement of Hargrave and Gilbee.
Skinner really shouldn't be on list, but I had a feeling he would be.

The new coach is no nonsense sort of bloke. If Zeph hasn't been delisted, that means he has done something right at the club. That's a win. Needs to take grabs and hold them. That's is what he's paid for.

ZEph is probably on the list because I've heard he is one of the best at putting pressure and chasing in the forward line, look at a certain goal he got after 3 repeat efforts, I see his problem is he isn't holding his marks yet, still has hard hands but if he gets that right watch out.

Vez was moved back at Willy this year and is a great kick he has a football brain I would give him one more year.
From willy games I saw he was a leader as far as making sure the young players were doing what the coach wanted set up wise , I think he has a lot more to offer

That wasn't '3 repeat efforts', that was two fumbles before he picked it up!
