Re: The Top Gun
So that means we now need to delist at least two. Saad and............???

Ledger should have stayed on the list and IMO if he'd played 5 more games we'd feel more comfortable with thatSobraz wrote:Not sure how to feel about this...

Re: The Top Gun
List management wise it would make more sense to draft him in the rookie draft.
Option A
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Mav Weller
= 40 primary list players
Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
Curren
+ Rookie Draft Pick
= 4 rookie listed players
Would see Saad gone with Weller taking his spot on the primary list and Curren remaining on the rookie list.
Option B
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Tom Curren Upgrade
= 40 primary list players
Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
+ Mav Weller in Rookie Draft
+ Rookie Draft Pick
= 4 rookie listed players
Saad Gone, Weller Rookie Listed, Curren Upgraded and another player rookie listed.
Option C
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Tom Curren Upgrade
= 40 primary list players
Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
+ Mav Weller in Rookie Draft
+ Saad in Rookie Draft
= 4 rookie listed players
Saad Rookie Listed, Curren Upgraded, Weller Rookie Listed.

Curran has already been upgraded but you have to wait until the draft to make it official and I dont think you cant make Weller a rookie if we get him as a delisted FA so that means 2 now must go. Obviously Saad is one and TDL or Dunnel will be the other.

Re: The Top Gun
I've been off the air and missed seeing most of the season but I am surprised that Dunnel is being mentioned for delisting. (But not about TDL.)
I thought that Dunnel showed a bit in the few games that I have seen (seemed to read the game, was quick with his hands and usually had effective disposals to advantage, also seemed to put in the "hard" efforts). What happened to him this year? Did he not develop as hoped?

Lol, I think i'm going to regret following up that post that I pm'ed to youSaintPav wrote:

![Wink :wink:](./images/smilies/icon_wink.gif)
though ironically enough I do like my collectibles
would have no issue cutting TDL though. It's just if they show even slight potential and we don't play them ahead of ppl that show little... doesn't sit well with me
