2025 List Management Thread

[chef]

I'm a bit surprised.

No Brew or Crossley. We've declined both of them..... All those back and forth arguments amounted to nothing except for some internet fun

Rocco Jones wanted me to post this.

What's the story with Coffield... Just cant overcome all the injuries to get a real crack at it?

That seems to be his challenge. He's a good reader of the play and a bit slow but he can't get the continuity with his football

Body just doesn't hold up to AFL demands

TBH i forgot he existed.

I get he's a whipping boy but he'd play for a lot of sides.
His pressure is fantastic.

We probably have the worse small forwards in the league. VDM isn’t getting a game for anyone else.

What time are we meeting at the nets?

If I'm running late please start without me

We need an Excel spreadsheet Axey

  I think he cost us 3 games where he went off with Hamstring tightness in the first qtr and then played next week. Dont count that playing every game.

Ok, would you count it as "Selected every game", which reflects the value the MC place on his contribution to the team.

Can you tell me another club that would take Vandermeer.? He hardly touches the ball, jelly arms in a tackle and makes mistakes when he actually gets the ball. First year kids are as good as him. Trade and see what is on offer.

The guy that played every game last year? Just maybe you are missing something in his game that the MC value.

[Scott2016]

In the last couple of years we have bucked the trend with drafting a couple of more players than we previously have and I wonder if it's been to get ahead of a more significant correction?
Last year we also traded back into the draft to secure Davidson and L.Kennedy later in the order.
We currently only have a 1st and 2nd rounder for next season so how many players could we drop off because our selections would be right at the back end of the draft.
There will likely be a couple of retirements and the maximum number of changes we could really go with is about 7 spots but more likely 6.
I can see some one year extensions to some of our players coming out of contract

As I understand it, and thanks to Zero Hanger, these are the players coming out of contract this year:

Oskar Baker- Likely delist
Marcus Bontempelli - Long term deal
Luke Cleary - Likely delist
Nicholas Coffield - Likely delist
Taylor Duryea - Likely retirement
Jason Johannisen - Likely retirement
Aurthur Jones - Possible delist or 1 year deal
Liam Jones - 1 year deal
Tom Liberatore - 1 year deal
Caleb Poulter - Possible delist or 1 year deal
Ed Richards - Long term deal
Anthony Scott - Likely delist or 1 year deal
Lachlan Smith - 2 year deal
Adam Treloar - 1 year deal
Laitham Vandermeer - 2 year deal
We would most likely have to make a decision on either Crossley or Brew as well.

There could be a case for the retention of of one or two out of A.Jones, Poulter or Scott perhaps even Coffield or Cleary.

We certainly cannot sensibly delist 9 or 10 players so there will likely be some 1 year extensions.

We will still have room for Butters.

The purpose of this is not to be toxic. However, lists are turned over every year.

The Dogs have a very thin tail.

The following list of players, I doubt there are more than 1 or 2 still on the list in 2 years.

TRELOR - 1 Year deals, Inside Mid or nothing. Maybe some Sub thrown in. Injury will determine if that is 1 or 3

BUSS - Not sure, beyond the current deal. Probably 50/50 if signed Vs cut or traded

BAKER - End of his current deal, cut.

DURYEA - Final Year, Jaques in that role, probably before 2025 is out.

COFFIELD- End of his current deal, cut.

O'DONNEL - Not sure, beyond the current deal. Probably 50/50 if signed Vs cut

LIBBA - 1 Year deals, Inside Mid or nothing. Maybe some Sub thrown in. Concussion or knee degeneration will impact how long.

HARMES - End of his current deal, cut.

VANDEMEER - 50/50 - End of his current deal, re-sign or cut.

KHAMIS - End of his current deal, cut.

POULTER - End of his current deal, cut.

SCOTT - End of his current deal, cut.

MCNEIL - 50/50 - End of his current deal, re-sign or cut.

A JONES - End of his current deal, cut.

CLEARY End of his current deal, cut.

GARICA -Traded

JJ - End of his current deal, cut.

SMITH - End of his current deal, cut.

GARDNER - End of his current deal, cut.

Im keeping Buss, Smith and Odonnell. Libba and Treloar on one year deals. The rest are list clogging. Minimum wages at best as no one else will pay overs to have them on their list. If someone sees value then do a trade but not worth paying overs to keep them at all.
