Agree except for Baker, Ross and Graham....and maybe Aarts.
 
I never ever want to see Chol again
Pathetic effort ! Naish not up to it
RCD can spend the rest of year in the VFL
As can Stack and Rioli
Hopeless !!

Add Garthwaite.
if they don’t play Miller after 10 years on the list it’s time for him as well.
Need to turn the list over and refresh. Pity that Dimma falls in love with players and doesn’t recognise when it’s time to let them go

A few weeks ago you said I was having a weird rant to post that we shouldn't be playing Aarts or Castagna any more.

A few weeks pass, and now you've delisted them.

You're always a little slow on the uptake, but definitely get there in the end.

As far as recruiting and list management goes we’ve done a lot more right than wrong since 2016. However, we are paying a price for holding on to certain players for far to long.

Miller is 4 years into his career and hasn’t been deemed worthy to play a single game yet. Chol is 6 years in and it was obvious last year he wasn’t up to it but he was given another season anyway. Garthwaite 5 years on the list. Naish 4 years. Eggmollese-Smith 4 years and was delisted and then re-listed!

Given the low draft picks we’ve had in recent years, the chances of finding good players is reduced. To offset this we needed to be much more aggressive in player turnover but we haven’t. Now we are in a situation where some of the players mentioned above are likely to be retained for yet another season because of possible retirements and trades and it not being possible to turnover so many players in a single offseason.

Aarts is my pet hate right now because of the critical blunders he has made over the past month.

When he tipped to us to go on a flag-winning run starting today you just knew it was all over for us.

This is just his way of compensating.

McIntosh and Chol are free agents. Riewoldt re-signed. At least make it realistic.

Mistake letting Markov go IMO. Thought he played some good games when in the hub. Good run off half back.

Let Walk via free agency, don’t offer contracts

Chol
Mcintosh

Delist

Miller
Eggs
Caddy

Thats a easy seven.

Naish, Ross, Arts, Castagna. Two or three have to go. That’s around 10 changes, hard to do more and remain successful.

Yep, many here including myself said it should have been Houli instead and as it turns out to be so

Macintosh will get offered a contract. Just not sure if will be enticing enough to stay.
Caddy could net a late pick.
The rest I agree with.
