Better Loosen Up
Brownlow Medallist
Depending on how many list spots we need to make available, I felt like we could only keep one of RHJ or Drury.

AFLW 2024 - Round 10 - Chat, game threads, injury lists, team lineups and more.
Harvey moved to the rookie list
Drury and Maley retained as rookies
The rest delisted
CCJ traded out
No one is going to take CCJ
Carefully watch the players they comment on? That's not the Big Footy wayI genuinely believe there are posters who fire away ad infinitum without actually watching the players they comment on.
Doubly so for the draft thread.
balanced summaryHappy with that news.
Phillips is a smart, skillful and determinrd player who has more to show if his fitness continues to build. Get the idea he'd be in the young captain discussions if his health hadn't curtailed him to date.
Pink is a tricky one, sometimes shows signs of having a 50+ game AFL player in him. Other times looks a little off the pace. But good size, good attitude and experience in an elite system in Cola.
Very happy with RHJ. Lots of encouraging signs in his run of senior games and the only player on the list with the innate agility and pace to approximate a small forward or maybe even creative winger.
By my math this leaves uncontracted:
- Drury
- Lazzaro
- Harvey
- Taylor
- Maley
- Sellers
- Free
Retired/delisted
- Shiels
- Greenwood
- Thomas
I am certain Maley will be offered a new contract, not sure on the rest of them which would mean we are seeing 9 players departing.
We don't need depth in his position and he'll never be a great player. It's an easy decision.Feel for Taylor if he doesn't get another year, even on low coin. He actually performed pretty well when he was back in the side this year, and then injured forcing him to miss the last few. He's no world beater, but he's tried his guts out for us for multiple cellar dweller years.
I’d be giving CT and cooper another year alsoBy my math this leaves uncontracted:

Works for me. Though we may have to payout a couple of CCJ, Biggie and Stevo if we don't get to keep the extra rookie spots: we will likely want to bring in more than five players.By my math this leaves uncontracted:

I tend to agree.We don't need depth in his position and he'll never be a great player. It's an easy decision.
Your maths doesn't work.I’d be giving CT and cooper another year also
I think we only use 3 draft picks
And only bring in Parker and darling
I would prefer Harvey to get another season on the rookie list over Drury. Harvey seemed to regress a little this year but there is something about him (besides the family ties) that I like.
7 players out (Thomas, greenwood, shiels, laz, Drury, free, sellers)Your maths doesn't work.
I reckon those extra rookie spots are unlikely. But are you passing on River Stevens? Or is he one of the 3?7 players out
5 players in (3 draft picks plus Parker and darling)
2 spare spots (if we keep our 2 extra rookie picks which we should as GC have theirs still)

Agree it's an easy decision for the club. Still feel for Curtis tho.We don't need depth in his position and he'll never be a great player. It's an easy decision.
Passing on him if we don’t keep extra rookie spotsI reckon those extra rookie spots are unlikely. But are you passing on River Stevens? Or is he one of the 3?
Weird, but ok.Passing on him if we don’t keep extra rookie spots
But I expect to keep them so he’d take a rookie spot
15 wins in 5 years if anything we get more spots not less
If l had to keep 1 of Drury, Curtis or Harvey l would be keeping Drury. Offer Harvey a rookie spot or delist him.The same with Curtis Taylor. These 2 need to know thats its their last chance..I have a suspicion with Coops that there's no need to muck about with the contract of a son of a club legend if you're planning on keeping him so suspect he is gone however the rookie downgrade may be the lifesaver for him.
I think 1 year deal in itself indicates last chanceIf l had to keep 1 of Drury, Curtis or Harvey l would be keeping Drury. Offer Harvey a rookie spot or delist him.The same with Curtis Taylor. These 2 need to know thats its their last chance..
I personally love Bali, I go a few times a year. I don’t drink at all but I go over, get bulk sun, I train every morning at the body factory, the food scene is elite and some of my favourite restaurants are in Bali, you can get coffee on par with Melbourne with all the cafes there very similar to the Melbourne type of scene and you can be as healthy or unhealthy as you like over there with options both ways. It also goes with out saying how cheap it is and your bang for buck over there.I still struggle to understand why people visit Bali. It’s a complete shit hole.
Thought for a minute you'd found some footage of him bursting out of a stoppage that you promised me!!! Best of luck to him, he'd best be running as we speak.Hahahahaha Junk yard
