Guess the delistings

[plugger66]

Unfortunately players have to leave the club for various reasons and as the season is just about over I think its time we see who people think will be delisted and retire from both the main list and the rookie list and also any upgrades to the main list.

Retire
Ray

Delist
Siposs
White
Simpkin
Curren
Pierce

Retire Rookie
Schneider

Delist rookie
Saad
Upgrade rookie
Holmes
Sinclair

Pierce to the rookie list

That leves us with 4 picks in the draft. Obviously trades will change that.

[mambo2706]

I'd agree with most of that but I think Curren might be retained.

[S.A Saint]

Retire
Ray
Fisher (if we get a defender during trade period)
Schneider (rookie)
Saad (rookie)

Delist
Sippos
White (apparently want a new start according to some on bf)
Simpkin
Curren

Pierce (rookie option)
Markworth (rookie option depending on last few games)

Upgrade
Sinclair
Holmes

[SuperDuper]

I would add Shenton to the list
Just looks out of his depth at AFL level...

I know he signed some sort of contract.. but was there a performance clause in it?

I'm pretty sure you cant have performance clauses in contracts these days.

[saintspremiers]

I'd add Saunders and Shaggy to pluggers list.

Agree with all of that. The only other one who might be in trouble is Markworth, although if he is delisted we'd need to keep one of the others as we won't want five picks.

[skeptic]

Isn't Curren contracted for another season?

I reckon they might keep Pierce too

Pierce won't stay on the senior list if Holmes is promoted. Couldn't see them with four ruckman on the list.

[Rosco]

Plugger's list looks pretty good, imo

Pierce to rookie if Holmes is elevated, makes sense give the pecking order but not convinced it will happen.

Agree Saunders is in doubt.

Curren probably behind other similar types (Ross, Dunstan) so makes sense if he goes, 30% chance to stay (yep, sitting on the fence)

Markworth to stay imo.

Shenton / Minch will be seriously looked at if we need more spots.

What a crap OP

[St Chris]

Retire:
Schneider.

Delist:
Ray
Saunders
Siposs
White

Demote to Rookie List:
Pierce
Markworth

Elevate:
Sinclair

Gives us 6 senior spots to fill. I reckon we might trade in 1 player, giving us 4 picks and maybe a second chance to a delist ed free agent from somewhere.

Leave Saad and Holmes on the rookie list, I think we've been too quick to promote guys in the last couple of years (Minch & Shenton come to mind)

[Toy Saint]

Any comment about Payne, is he a keeper?

Personally not convinced with Templeton.

I would promote Holmes, but say farewell to Saad.

[coopergrech]

Retire- Schneids
Maybe Fisher(Depending on body)

Delist-
. Pierce
. White
. Siposs
. Saad

Simpkin deserves a go, a workhorse in the VFL, worth another year, may give Saad/Siposs another year to. Depends on how many retire/they wanna get rid of, but Pierce is gone for sure! His performance in the VFL is average to, so defs gone. Could say the same for White to unfortunately.

[Tom_Sainter]

Retire
- Ray
- Schneider

Delist-
- Simpkin
- Shenton
- White
- Saunders
- Siposs
- Markworth
- Saad
- Pierce

I could possibly see a spot for Markworth and Siposs on the rookie list, Markworth as we havent seen what he can do and Sippo as I have a soft spot for him being a saints man himself and seeing a bit of potential if he had a decent crack at it

[plugger66]

What a crap OP

Really? You came on here to say that. I thought you could have called a few players duds or spuds. Maybe do a poll on whether its a crap OP.

[Life Long Saint]

Given that Saad was only added as a rookie this season and that rookies are there for two years, I am confident he'll stay on the rookie list.
I'm not sure why Ray would retire. He missed a fair chunk of the season with his hammy and he is struggling a bit now for fitness because of it. Given a full crack at a pre-season he'll be a handy asset to have next season. Shouldn't play every game but has to be reataied to cover injuries at the very least.
Siposs and White are in real danger...especially the latter as he only had a one year contract.

Agree with just about all of the above. As others have mentioned, I think Curren will be retained. Saunders more likely to be delisted for mine, Markworth also a 50/50 call.

[lewdogs]

Saad has been dominating in the VFL so I don't really understand why we'd delist him. Pierce has shown enough I think. Players that look gone would be Simpkin, Siposs, Curren, White as all haven't feautured in the 1sts.

[lewdogs]

Also Markworth

[SinCitySainter]

Retire: Schneider (Rookie Confirmed Already)
Ray

Delist and Re-Rookie: Markworth and Pierce

Delist: Simpkin
Siposs
White
Saad (Rookie)

Promote: Sinclair and Holmes

Gives us 4 draft picks and 2 rookie picks.
