Guess the delistings

[LTN16]

I agree with the op.
I would prefer to keep White though but think he may be gone....................

Haha keep dreaming!! No chance of that happening..

We are such stuff as dreams are made on, and our little life is rounded with a sleep.

It will definitely always be just a dream if you think we can trade White with our second pick to freo for there first pick..

[sax]

Retire - Schneider (r), Ray

Delist - Siposs, White, Shenton, Markworth, Pierce

Elevate - Holmes, Sinclair

This will leave 4 Primary spots & 2 rookie spots.

Only thing saving Curren, Saunders & Murdoch is they are contracted.

Shenton signed a new deal about 6 weeks ago.

That's unfortunate!

It could only be a pick upgrade of 5 spots if Melbourne beat GWS and Freo win the premiership
Pick 23 or 18 not much difference there.

[older saint]

Retire: Schnieder, Ray?

Delist: Siposs, White, Simpkin, Saad, Saunders, Murdoch

Upgrade Sinclair, Holmes,

Rookie: Pierce, Markworth

Pick Best available at pick 6 .

Trade bait - not really much others would want or we would be willing to give .

Quiet year during trade week , unless we can grab one of those young GWS or GC players which cannot get a game?

[ace]

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.

What better way for the players who are sacked than to find out about it than via the internet on the Saintsational website.

Spencer would be lucky to get picked up as a rookie selection by another club if we delisted him.. Struggling to get a senior game for sandy.. Keep dreaming!

[james rose]

No way will ray retire. He is 29 and extremely durable. I hope we keep him on a one year contract. As we saw this year with Schneider experience is valuable.

[darylcowie]

Gone: Sipposs (slow, goes missing), Schneider/Ray (retired), White (lazy), Simpkin (no skill), Wright (same), Saunders (same), Shenton (loose defender)

Keep: Markworth (pace), Lee (trade White, Lee has better skills than Delaney), Saad (rookie), Minchington (better than Saunders)

[plugger66]

Keep: Markworth (pace), Lee (trade White, Lee has better skills than Delaney), Saad (rookie), Minchington (better than Saunders)

Small list though. only 4 players on it. Hope the draft is strong.

No way will ray retire. He is 29 and extremely durable. I hope we keep him on a one year contract. As we saw this year with Schneider experience is valuable.

Roo
Joey
Fisher
Dempster
Gilbert
Armitage
Geary
Steven
Savage
Roberton

We are actually going ok for experience.

[Armoooo]

Delist:
Markworth
Ray
Murdoch
Simpkin
Saunders
Minchington
Saad

Retire:
Schneider
Fisher

Promote:
Holmes
Sinclair

Draft as many players who can kick as possible.

[Teflon]

Desperately need miss with some skill/pace give Markworth 1 last year imo

[saintbob]

If Paddy or Membrey don't play then Roo needs to play forward, as poor old Brucey was being double and triple teamed all day!!

[WinnersOnly]

Delist:
Markwoth
White
Sipposs
Simpkin
Ray

Retire:
Schnieder

Upgrade:
Sinclair

[Dis Believer]

I think the delists are:

Markworth (unfortunate, but starting to look like another Xav Clarke, body just won't cope)
Siposs (papers clearly stamped)
White (another who cannot stay on the park)
Simpkin
Possible delists (irrelevant of contracts):

Curren
Saunders

Both are a type that we seem to have plenty of and they seem to be down the pecking order.

Schneider retired, Fisher is probably 50/50, and I think Ray was just offered a one year deal.

I would think that Saad may also be in trouble.

Sinclair and Holmes to be elevated, Peirce to Rookie list.

[terry smith rules]

I think one of Wright/ Shenton/ Webster will be collateral damage in that to get any trade going we need to offer something and I can't see all these mid sized backs staying

so
delist Markworth, Sipposs, White, Simpkin
retire Schneider Fisher (love him but I think the good times beckon)
trade one of Wright/ Shenton/ Webster
or two of Wright/Shenton/ Webster/ Minchington/ Murdoch

Well the only player tradable out of those 5 is Webster and I don't think we would get any real value anyway for him. The other 4 are worth nothing unfortunately.

[borderbarry]

Would Geelong consider Murdoch? Probably not.

[lefty]

Meh, not that I'm an expert but I'd...

Delist
Michington - Trade
Murdoch - Trade
Geary - Trade, turns the ball over too much
Shenton - Trade
Saad
Pierce
Schneider

Keep
Markworth - 1 more year
Sipposs - 1 more year
Lee - 1 more year
Simpkin - 1 more year
White - 1 more year
Ray - 2 more years, still good imo.
Wright - Keep, will be better than Geary in due course
Saunders - Keep, want his pace

[bergholt]

Michington - Trade
Murdoch - Trade
Geary - Trade, turns the ball over too much
Shenton - Trade

If we package all four of them we might get pick 80. If we trade Geary on his own we might get pick 40.

[SaintPav]

To be delisted: Siposs, White, Simpkin, Curren, Saunders.

Retire: Schneider

Upgrade: Sinclair

[borderbarry]

I dont know about delisting Peirce. He may have more upside than Hickey at the moment.

[tony74]

Pierce is the future. He could be our Brad Ottens.

[plugger66]

Pierce is the future. He could be our Brad Ottens.

Or our next Barry Brooks.

[Winmar7]

I'm surprised with number of calls to delist Saad. I would be surprised if he was let go, given the club waited almost 2 years to get him back... and while his forward pocket position seems to have been taken over by Lonie, Minchington & Sinclair, perhaps he could be reinvented in another position? He's also a handy in (and good kick) if these guys suffer 2nd year blues in 2016
