OK, I dint inc Noah or Biggy as it hasn't happened yet, word around is someone may take Biggy before us
Ok this is what I have can you confirm if this is correct:
28 on main list plus Taz = 29.
6 Rookies: Mansell, Arts, Parker, Stack, Miller Pickett
35 list spots taken.
My understanding Stack and Pickett will need to be upgraded to senior list as they have had 3 years on the Rookie List.
Which now makes it:
31 Main List
4 Rookie
1 Cat B Rookie
So we have made the room to put Cumberland and Biggy onto Rookie list but have to risk other clubs picking them up. If we add them back now we have a total of 37 on the list which gives us 5 selections at the draft.
7,15,26,28,38,40 -
Most likely try and upgrade 38 and 40 to a higher selection or a future selection next year which would then give us 4 picks in this draft and a delisted free agent.

Aarts has also had 3 years on rookie list & is contracted for 2022
in 2021 , minimum requirement was 37 on main list, assume its the same for 2022, we currently have 29
Assume will will upgrade 2 from rookie list means we take 6 picks to the draft.
More likely we will upgrade 3, Melee, Pickett & Stack or Aarts & take 5 picks to draft & re rookie Biggy & Cumberland & leave a spot open for MSD
I had it down as min was 36, max was 38. Rookies can be between 4 and 6 with total list sizes of 42 excluding Cat B rookies.
So 7 spots, like you say we will need to upgrade probably 2 (I think Aarts can remain on the rookie list for a 4th year, again another special one-off rule I think), so I think we have 5 list spots on the main list. 5 picks but as you say I don't think we use them all.
Who knows if the AFL have changed the rules, but rookies only get a 12 month contract, whereas those drafted in the national draft get a guarantee of two.
Plus the $80k out of the cap mentioned previously
Think rookies get their base $ 80 k contract outside the cap??? Also can put them on one year contracts instead of the usual two.
Starting to question our list management.
There are a lot less talented players on our list than Cumberland and Biggy inc
Parker, Miller, Aarts, Cantstandya, Ross and Martyn.
Doesn’t make any sense that the untried kids get delisted and these guys get contracts

If he's been promised a rookie spot, he still gets a contract.
Completely missed 2020 when he popped his knee. 2021 was another stuffed up year due to the pandemic, but for mine he showed enough promise to warrant a late senior game.
Perhaps there's still a couple of areas of his game the club wants him to work on. Plus the fact that the club has worked hard to get a deep attack on this years draft to refresh the list Cummerbund needs to get nudged sideways a little bit to open up room in the balance of rookies n senior listers. All the picks in the
" National " draft have to go on the senior list, we can't fudge the newbies into rookies.
Yer, probably a dud but will get a gig in VFL or another 2nd tier comp somewhere. Quite young.

I think we should have just paid aarts out and cut our losses. Both Cumberland and Biggie were stolen Academy kids so no doubt brizzy and the saints will want to nick them buck just for fun. We can only take Cumberland without being gazumped If we use our first rookie pick I think? Would be nasty to lose a promising young key defender for no reason..

Not confident with our depth looking at those emergencies
Look at some of the other teams and you'll see ours in comparison aren't so bad.
Looks like such a strong team, if we stay fit watch out.

Graham on the wing?
DS
Yeah not sure about that, also Soldo is first ruck, Nank will start surely as Soldo hasn't played for like 18 months.
With emergencies, RCD is also waiting in the wings. His running partner this preseason will be Lambert, so hopefully, he improves his two way running.
Stack offered 3 yrs to go to Arden st.
The Sov brothers could be playing together in 2022
achillesjones i really rate Hugo, won't be too long before he's playing regularly in the seniors, just like Riley Collier Dawkins he's borderline 22
