Sherman - Delisted

Re: Sherman - Delisted

One of the worst trades I've seen. Who knows, maybe we could have kept Ward with the money Sherman was allegedly on. Ah well, I'm glad we didn't keep him on for another year just because he's got a contract.

Re: Sherman - Delisted

The club announcement states:

"Sherman exits Whitten Oval a year before the expiration of his contract, after reaching a settlement with the Club."

This implies a full or part payout of his contract has occured and once that was agreed he has been released to enter the PSD.

I always thought that when you go into the PSD contracted the club that drafts him has to absorb the rest of that contract. Anyway, personally don't care either way.

Re: Sherman - Delisted

It's a rapid fall from grace to delist a player after only two seasons that you essentially traded a first round (or early second round) pick for.

I understand why supporters dislike Sherman, and ultimately it's been a tragic trade, but I thought he still had something to offer.

Be interesting to see who actually picks him up.

Sydney were ready to cough up pick 22 for him 2 years ago. Luckily for us he chose the Dogs as his preferred destination

Re: Sherman - Delisted

I'm assuming he was on the trade table then? So if no club was interested at trade time, why would they be interested come the PSD?

It's possible that no one is interested in giving him a primary list spot but may be willing to put him on the rookie list?

Might be the Club who pick him up.

Re: Sherman - Delisted

It's a bit sad that we wasted so much on him, but if he's not in Maccas plans than we may as well cut him lose.

Re: Sherman - Delisted

I'm glad to see him gone but can't believe he was worth nothing at the trade table.

Looks like you were right Chops. Sherman = 0.

Vez 100x> Skinner

Re: Sherman - Delisted

So we have pretty much ended up with nothing from the loss of Jarrod Harbrow. We can only hope that we use the Ward compensation pick much more wisely (please let pick 6 be a gun).

I know you don't rate Skinner (neither do I), but Vesz is not 100x better than anybody. He is a journeyman and a battler at this level due to his poor tank and questionable intensity. These deficiencies will always counter balance his good attributes.

At least Vez has the tools to be an AFL player, Skinner's got nothing

In your opinion. Not everyone would agree.
