I know they've changed the rules re retirements, so can't we just put both George and Tarrant on the ineligible list / long term injury list, whatever its called and get those 2 picks? I'm not really sure what this change in process around submitting a form will actually do, we just make them ineligible for games and pick someone new.

If they are, they'll find his form has been substantially underwhelming at Essington
Not exactly sure but I'm thinking that form we have to submit is a release form, meaning that they're no longer our player and anyone sniffing around can pick them up.
Shifting players to ineligible or long term injury was simply just a fudge so clubs could retain the player while still having a nibble at the mid season draft.
New rule you have to release them from your list, would mean that someone could snaffle George mid season instead of waiting until the end of the year.
I hope not! If anything, we are ok for midfield depth and Narkle isn’t setting the world on fire at Essendon. If Ross and Dow can’t get a game currently, Narkle wouldn’t either
Luke Teal didn't do his chances any harm in just his 2nd VFL game yesterday, he looks a nice type.
"Teal is a good size for a modern footballer, standing at around 190cm and playing mostly as a defender has played on a range of types but mostly small forwards with his biggest task against Harry Sheezel in Round 16. That was a good battle, with Teal finishing that game with 20 disposals and was a real weapon with his sharp kicking."

Think we need to have a look at a tall forward. And Tarrant still listed as “indefinite” on the injury list so if he retires and gives us another pick we’d have to look at a small forward surely
We may already have the small on the list
We currently dont know what plans the club has for Green , Smith , Campbell , Clarke and what positions they will play
Hopefully Brando gets the exemption. I'd be happy if we select one of Ryan, Buller or Maric.
