Ok…given the brains trust in Blitz is greater than the EFC Administration, which 5 players get the flick from our list when the AFL continues to play funny buggers with our (once great) game?
44 (?) doesn’t fit into 40, either.
The brains trust has spoken!
Which NINE players drop off the list 
and that’s even before delisting even more so as to be able to enter the draft!

Ambrose not selected this week, and hasn’t done anything for a month.
Chop.

The club doesn’t need unlucky players, so that’s why I’ve invented the “Random Delist Bot”.
The entire playing list was entered in numerical order, and the sore of our last win (9 [goals] 9 [behinds] 63 [total score]) was used to seed the Python random choices algorithm. Under the assumption we need a playing list of 35, the following players were delisted:
Noah Gown
Will Snelling
Aaron Francis
Joe Daniher
Mitchell Hibberd
Adam Saad
Matt Guelfi
Dyson Heppell
Darcy Parish
Cian McBride
Orazio Fantasia
Henry Crauford

Okay, it’s time for the easiest part of any coach’s job - the cuts.
Now while I wasn’t able to cut everyone I wanted to, I have cut a lot of you.
Bellchambers is cut.
Zaka is cut.
Hurley, you’re gone.
Langford, I like your hustle. That’s why it was so hard to cut you.
Congratulations, the rest of you made the team.
Except McKenna, McBride and McQuillan.

There is no way that the clubs will be able to cut contracted players. They would have to pay out their contracts.

punt stewart if Joe stays
hooker might be done
McKenna will probably leave
Clarke is probably borderline
If Joe and Stewart are both fit, they’re both keeps for mine. There’s space for both and none of the youngsters will be ready for a year or three yet.
I was surprised Clarke got a contract last year, but he did - until 2021. Will stay.
what the dickens is going on?

Hirdy and Mcquillan?
Yup. If the AFL want teams to cut contracted players, the AFL’s going to have to pay out the contracts.
