Uncontracted saints players
From heraldsun.com.au
St Kilda
"Out of contract (15): Sam Alabakis, Jack Billings (RFA), Oscar Clavarino (UFA), Leo Connolly, Luke Dunstan (UFA), James Frawley (UFA), Jarryn Geary (UFA), Paul Hunter (UFA), Darragh Joyce (UFA), Dean Kent, Jack Lonie, Seb Ross (UFA), Paddy Ryder, Cooper Sharman, Mason Wood (UFA)
Jake Carlisle has almost certainly played his last AFL game, with the Saints not offering him a contract for next year, while Shaun McKernan told his playing peers on Tuesday that he was retiring. Billings is likely to spurn free agency to stick with St Kilda, and Connolly and Sharman are both on track for new deals. Geary is also expected to secure another year but those discussions are ongoing, and there’s some intrigue about Ross’ and Dunstan’s situation. Ryder’s latest Achilles issue has complicated matters but he’s a key Saint when fit and should continue into next season. Lonie and Wood fell short of contract triggers that would have locked them in for another year, but the former has some opposition interest"

Re: Uncontracted saints players
Every year this time Jack L's agent says there is interest from other clubs. That will probably be tested this year. Too many smallish forwards ahead of him now.
Although while out of the seniors he may have improved his kicking distance, tackling and decision making. I think Jack would make an ideal male model or villain in a Jack Irish movie, set in Saint Kilda not Fitzroy.

Re: Uncontracted saints players
Like the re-signings , nothing blowing the budget Sharman has shown a bit, Connolly I like his aggressiveness with the ball , and Geary provides leadership ( but if we are to progress not in best 22) and Wood provides depth as medium tall and with a proper pre season will compete with guys like Sharman for a spot in the side.
