There will be no cutting. We will just be paying players with left over merch from the bombershop.

Do they have any red bucket hats yet?
“Sorry we don’t have the cash to pay you anymore, but instead have this Name a Game DVD of Essendon vs Fremantle, Round 2, 2009 - it’s valued at $39.95!”

Who adds more to the list going forward? Ham or Zaka? Mcbride or Hooker?
We may need to tap the older blokes on the shoulder even club champs which is sad.
It should not even be a discussion. Ridiculous that they want to restart the season but cut playing lists.

Supposedly… make that 30-32.
What could possibly go wrong?
Like building sites. 1st on last off.
Is this a thing that is being floated around AFL media? Is it just a cry for relevance?
Surely if we actually get control of this thing in Aus (or at least everywhere except NSW), then when they restart it’s a licence to print money on a global scale??

Thats why JD wants to move.
Be cuttin further if they don’t sell the product to fox and seven quick smart
wait, this has been discussed about happening BEFORE footy resumes?
Club won’t be required to delist players. But, they can only take 32 players into a “hub”, the rest would stay behind. I’d say the List Management piece would take place once the season concludes…

So reduce the amount of players in HUB, … then make teams in HUB play every 4 Days.
Sounds so AFL, doesn’t it?

The numbers would work pretty easily.
There are allways half a dozen long term injuries.
Then you have another half dozen that aren’t ready being mostly first and second year players. They would miss the development of not training but not in the frame for seniors.
And what happens to the VFL team.
Hibberd
Mutch
Begley
Gown
Hird
Clarke?
McBride
McQuillan
I struggle now
There won’t be vfl anytime soon
On the basis that 40 does go into 35, and the answer is 0.875, and we want to be scientific about the decision.
You can’t cut Fridge.
His current goals per game average is 0.88, above the cut off.
You could have cut Leroy 0.86, Willie D*ck 0.86, and Courtney Johns 0.86 goals per game.
But they’re gone.
So of the forwards, missing the cut are;
Laverde 0.76
And then a bunch of forward/ mids - Devon, Langford Zaharakis Ham.
Or if you want to do it on giving away Free Kicks, a classic Blitz bête noir, then games wise above the 0.875 are;
Belly
Stringer,
Zerk
Townsend
Cutler
