On top of the retirements of Gia and Tom Williams, the Dogs have delisted Christian Howard, Brett Goodes and Tom Young.

Geez. those 3 blokes all a bit stiff. Considering goodsey was part of there best 22 last year. He is old but. But howard is very stiff..

Goodes probably a tad unlucky in the sense that he was BOG in the VFL grand final 5 days ago and had a decent season for Footscray.

Howard was Pick 15 in his draft and never lived up to that.

Not sure about Young, can only assume he got the axe because the Dogs have got a number of defenders his size that play a similar role iirc.

Lol

Goodes can't kick and can not survive at AFL level

Howard is a hack

Young is a tad unlucky but no where near their best 22

Goodes is an old man.

Howard has been going backwards for 3 years and only showed good signs every now and then at the best of times. I'd be very surprised if anyone picks him up.

Young was an absolute liability on the defensive side of his game. Not ideal for a backman.


Easton Wood, Liam Jones and Shaun Higgins all unsigned at the moment.

Greenwood, Austin and Redpath have all spent the maximum 3 years on the rookie list so their time is up. Either delist or upgrade to the senior list.

I can't see Greenwood getting elevated, but Austin and/or Redpath would have to be a chance?

[meow meow]

Greenwood has to be cut. The other two could go either way. Personally I would keep Austin but give Redpath the chop.

[Mr.Craig]

I had high hopes Young would step up but it just didn't happen. Still reckon it's worth his while nominating for the draft.

Howard on the other hand...

[Nige]

Easton Wood has signed a one year contract extension.

[meow meow]
