    Interesting that they indicate Baker as a likely ‘going’. He had a good back end of the season thus thinking he will likely be retained.
    I noted that too. I'd keep Baker ahead of Poulter if I had to choose.

    Scott's contribution to the club shouldn't be seen as a list clogger or deadwood
    His concussion history is the biggest concern and it's why it's probably time to let him go.
    Despite a fine game on the weekend he's not a best 23 type player if we have anything close to a healthy list.
    Next season we will push the development of Dolan and Hynes as HF and midfield players so chances for Scott as minimal.

    Scott is very unlucky in that his concussions (especially against Sydney mid last year) have ruined any chance of pressing for a run of games in the last 18 months, and also for his timing at currently being out of contract. He has been by far the best performed player for Footscray the last 4-6 weeks of the season, and on form alone deserves a 12 month contract IMO (let alone what a quality person he seems to be around the group).

    At worst, we should delist and re-rookie him. It's not like we are blessed with amazing depth with high half forwards or small/mid defenders. Whilst Scott is a midfielder first, he is a proven commodity at AFEL level in other roles - he was simply out of sight and out of mind whilst he was going through his long recovery from concussion. He deserves a new contract on form alone, probably more deserving that some that are currently under contract.

    What's he going to cost - minimum chips and 12 months for what essentially would be the last list spot.

    As amazing as Kennedy was as a recruit this year, he showed that he can't deliver that offensive drive and quality sustainably. Adam Treloar can when fit and I feel he's earned one more year.

    Can you imagine the Cats or Lions considering not signing Treloar after one bad year? When he has played he has been AFL quality.

    If he's the 44th player on our list we're doing exceptionally well. Slow build in to next year, get him cherry ripe for the second half of 2026.

    On Tony Scott, I've always been a fan and he was great in the VFL yesterday but I think going out on a high with a VFL flag would be fitting.

    Rather a speculative pick over a proven going no where pick

    Yep, plus draft picks don't have the experience nor do state league players even mature agers at AFL level, who can be very hit and miss.

    Well we still need depth especially some with experience, most likely losing Liam Jones, JJ, Poulter, Coffield, Duryea with Treloar's body a concern if he does continue, i also didn't think Baker or Bramble were up to it but here we are both deserving to play on imo, my only query regarding Scott was his issues with concussion, apart from that i think he can come in and play his role when required.

    For mine Anthony Scott late season VFL form has earned himself another contract.

    Before his concussion issues he was best 22 and now obviously a break glass emergency kinda of player. He is a solid citizen and his on field leadership for the vfl team will be needed with Duryea and potentially Jones moving on.

    Adam Treloar: one year
    Liam Jones: dependent if we bring in another KPD or he may wish to explore his options.
    Oskar Baker: one year
    Anthony Scott: one year
    Caleb Poulter: delist
    Nick Coffield: delist
    Jason Johannisen: delist
    Taylor Duyrea - retire
    My heart agrees, my head says got a feeling his concussion history will be Scott’s downfall. His unflinching brave efforts, disposal and footy brain is pretty good. Hope he has another chance at AFL level. The kind of player Tassie team would benefit from, pity it’s a few years away.
