Delistings/Retirements

[CURLY]

Hotton is safe.

[Killa]

Bonner has played every game apart from 1 due to injury

With some luck, the draw coming from where we are now, some astute Drafting adding to our Round 1 side aka the likes of Wanganeen-Milera Phillipou and Wilson and improvement among our youngsters I would expect a pleasing result in 2025, replicating 2023

What we miss is support for Marshall, King and Howard, so KPP players hence all of our recently drafted kids with the physical attributes are retained and further developed

The Coaches will know who is on the right trajectory and decisions will be led by this

The question will initially involve senior players and the value they add at VFL level assisting the learning and providing experience (so they are not blown off the park week in and week out

And note that Lyon wants quick players with skills, hence the opportunity given to Wilson this year

We will have to delist some and retire others
to allow for who we Draft and otherwise attract (where we are not currently in any media conversation

So relying on the Draft

Sides need structure and this will be a contributing factor

With the much commented on mid field, we do not have a “star” but we do have many contributors with potential, so the likes of Phillipou, Windhager, Owens, Henry et al

All with skills which leads to optimism

So questions such as Cordy v Van Es

And Ross versus our emerging youngsters

So investment in capable youth versus the break the glass in an emergency experience

[Yorkeys]

Will the Cats game be the one we get a chance to thank JB?

Assumption: no announcement by now bodes a departure.

[The G Train Legacy]

I think they will go with Caminiti as a key defender next year

Perhaps with Wilkie and Schoenmaker in support

Will want to get overs for Howard though

Agree and I think Caminiti is going to be a very good key defender.

Doesn't make any sense to trade Howard, particularly if Battle goes.

Why mess with the strongest part of our set up when Sinclair has already moved regularly to the midfield, NWM may move to a wing and Webster who has been a very underrated player may not go on next year, you can see Jimmy's lost a yard.

If you lose Battle & Howard I'd be extremely concerned.

I think Stocker slots into Websters role if he retires, Arie & Caminitti offer key and mid sized roles but I wouldn't want to replace both Howard and Battle with these two.

[B.M]

Nasiah will not go to the wing - he is far too valuable from HB - and I don’t think he has the aerobic

Hill, Wood, Byrnes, Wilson Henry etc will play wing

[Saint Of Patience]

There is no way Hill is going anywhere, he's just signed a 3 year contract!
Membrey has been our best forward for the past month, seems to have got his body right.
Jones has been great the last 3 weeks on limited game time, he's probably got himself another year if the last weeks are ok without injury.

Let's hope he gets the Rob Eddy treatment. In one day, then they come to their senses and boot him the next.

Riley B is a neat footballer, good kick in space but no world beater. Word association? Newnes.
If none of Hastie, Arie or Mclennan can make him redundant it will reflect poorly.
