where’s the delisting announcements? marching papers should be well and truly stamped for at least 6 (should be more)

Which delisting thread gets delisted? The all teams one is now a Bombers one too.

unwin to get 1 year

Perkins should go but is going to get a year, cox needs to go

@mods can we merge the two delisting threads as I am missing posts that I should be liking

Two threads? You mean the VFL game day thread?

I imagine Perkins will be given one year.

One thread is an Essendon delisting thread the other is all clubs delisting thread.

Now while I wasn’t able to cut everyone I wanted to, I have cut a lot of you. Gresham is cut. McMahon is cut. Jones, you’re gone. El Hawli, I like your hustle. That’s why it was so hard to cut you. Congratulations, the rest of you made the team! Except you, you and you.

Fair point, but, can it be moved to the Trades thread?

I wouldn’t blink an eye if any of the following go:

Parish

McKay

Langford

Fiorini

Guelfi

Gerreyn

Jones

Perkins

Unwin

El-Hawli

Blakiston

Edwards

Cox

McMahon

Gresham

Setterfield

Pretty much. Possibly harsh on 1 or 2, but yeah… I could put a line through 10-12 without needing to draw breath…

Looks like the players will be wearing name tags at training next year.

This is my thoughts anyone on the delist pile I wouldnt lose too much sleep over expect Gerreyn.

In the trade group I would be open to any reasonable offers.

Classic Disco-bot account smell.

What an indictment on those who have put this list together over the past decade and to those tasked with developing these players. So many have glaring deficiencies and so many don’t have any significant strengths. Will take this delisting period and next years to get rid of all the list cloggers. Agree with others easily at least 12 could/ should be cut. Let’s hope , in 3 years time we are finding it difficult to come up 6 players to delist.

Not sure what you mean by expect Gerreyn

Gerryn and Nguyen stay for mine.

I would also keep Edwards. Reckon he’s a clever player and accurate. But i get blitz rates him lower.

Would love to see if Spike could improve some of these guys.
