Why havent we signed LIDS???

I agree. The official line seems to be that no signings until we sign a coach but if I was one of the players out of contract at the end of the year like Lids, I'd be getting peeved. I can't imagine any new coach saying that Lids was surplus to requirements, so just sign him up already. Ditto for Cotch.

I believe its more due to some players wanting to know who the new coach is before they sign.

Not unusual, happens at a lot of clubs when the coach leaves early

makes sense to me. i'm sure lids will be re-signed but it makes sense for both parties to see who we appoint first.
 
I've put together the following but happy for corrections:

Bowden, Joel (2009)
Brown, Nathan (2009)
Collins, Andrew (2010)
Connors, Daniel (2010)
Cotchin, Trent (2010)
Coughlan, Mark (2009)
Cousins, Ben (2009)
Deledio, Brett (2009)
Edwards, Shane (2010)
Foley, Nathan (2010)
Graham, Angus (2010)
Hislop, Tom (2010)
Hughes, Cleve (2009)
Jackson, Daniel (2010)
Johnson, Kane (2009)
King, Jake (2010)
McGuane, Luke (2009)
McMahon, Jordan (2010)
Moore, Kelvin (2010)
Morton, Mitch (2010)
Newman, Chris (2011)
Oakley-Nicholls, Jarrad (2009)
Pattison, Adam (2009)
Pettifer, Kayne (2009)
Polak, Graham (2009)
Polo, Dean (2009)
Post, Jayden (2010)
Putt, Dean (2009)
Raines, Andrew (2009)
Rance, Alex (2009)
Richardson, Matthew (2009)
Riewoldt, Jack (2010)
Shulz, Jay (2010)
Simmonds, Troy (2009)
Tambling, Richard (2010)
Thomson, Adam (2010)
Thursfield, Will (2009)
Tuck, Shane (2010)
Vickery, Tyrone (2010)
White, Matthew (2010)

I've made the following assumptions:
- All new ND draftees were put on 2 year contracts. (ie Cotchin, Rance, Putt, Vickery, Post)
- There was an announcement last year that Newman, Moore, Shulz, Riewoldt, Graham, Edwards, White, King, Collins and Connors has signed contract extensions. The announcement stated Newman has signed for 3 years but failed to mention the others. I've assumed the others signed for 2 years but have fingers crossed that a couple may have been 1 year.
