Gilbert, Hudghton, R.Clarke
Dempster, Maguire, S. Fisher
Dal Santo, Armitage, Hayes
Gram, Goddard, Montagna
Milne, Riewoldt, X
King, Ball, Cousins (or Kerr or some other experiencedmidfielder)
Extended bench: Kosi, Blake, Baker, Jones, Schneider, Gwilt, Steven
Others on the fringe: Allen, McEvoy, McQualter, Attard (if recovered), Rix (as backup if King injured), Fiora (because he's on contract)
Others who will still be floating around, although I'm pessimistic about their contributing much: Geary, Eddy, Eljay, Howard
3 new draft picks
Gone (if I was in charge)
Harvey
Gehrig
M Gardiner
C Gardiner
Ferguson
Birss (I'd prefer to keep him over Fiora, but I assume this is not possible)
L Fisher (given Dempster's injury, I'd keep him over elevating one out of Attard, Eddy and McQualter, but I expect I'm fighting a losing cause)
So, let's now assume that we are missing Dempster and Goddard (suspended) from round 1 and that Baker and Goose can't make it back right away
Gilbert, Hudghton, R.Clarke
X, Blake, S. Fisher

BTW this is just how I see it, not how I expect Lyon to see it.
Of course if we could snare two good trades - say Hall and Cousins (or others we haven't thought of) - we'd really be laughing. But that's probably beyond what we can expect.
i agree with you with the ones thshould be gone.
if fiora, did not have one year to go on his contract , he would be gone as well!
