I think these retirements will mean delistings will be minimised and enhance the likely hood of retaining the likes of McDonough, Dea, Astbury etc.

We now have LAmbo & George on the main list so that takes up 2 places. I think Thomas will be retained for a third (and final) year on the rookie list.
Still a couple of de listings to come imo. Not sure who at this stage. Dea might ask to be traded, McD also, both have a claim due to lack of opportunities. Astbury might be used in a trade.
We don't have the same low level of delistable players that was the case previously.
 
DirtyDogTiger said:
Lambo and George are temp upgrades.
If they are permanently upgraded it happens after trade period

That's true, but they will/should be added to the main list for next year, effectively reducing the outgoings by 2.
 
Four off the list so far: Newman, Foley, Knights and Petterd.

Two rookie upgrades likely: Lambert and Castagna

Two trades mooted: Treloar and Yarran

So if we want to take any juniors, other trades or free agents we need to delist or trade from the following uncontracted players:

Grimes
Grigg
Lennon
Lloyd
Astbury
McDonough
Dea
Gordon
Thomas (r)
Arnott (r)

The first few are best-22, and possible trade bait rather than delistings.

We could also delist Hampson a year early - he's not on much and would be surplus if we are indeed looking at Kreuzer.

I'd be surprised if at the very least Gordon and Arnot are not delisted this year.

isn't astbury contracted for one more year?

For me Dea, Gordon definites, Maradonna more than likely to be delisted.

Agree - also think Thomas has done enough to be retained

We might keep our list stronger if we leave lamby and George on the rookie list.
We've got 4 senior vacancies to fill at this point.
We might fill those spots up by the time the free agency and trade period is up.
