The Top Gun

Post: # 1415268Post SENsei »

Maverick Weller joins the Saints. If only we still had Matt Maguire, we could reunite Mav & Goose!!

I feel the need.....

Good get adds to the midfield depth and is at the right age. The kid can play. Would also like to get hold of Miles.

So that means we now need to delist at least two. Saad and............???

Ledger should have stayed on the list and IMO if he'd played 5 more games we'd feel more comfortable with that

so if it's like for like or Mav is better... good outcome

List management wise it would make more sense to draft him in the rookie draft.

Option A
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Mav Weller
= 40 primary list players

Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
Curren
+ Rookie Draft Pick
= 4 rookie listed players

Would see Saad gone with Weller taking his spot on the primary list and Curren remaining on the rookie list.

Option B
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Tom Curren Upgrade
= 40 primary list players

Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
+ Mav Weller in Rookie Draft
+ Rookie Draft Pick
= 4 rookie listed players

Saad Gone, Weller Rookie Listed, Curren Upgraded and another player rookie listed.

Option C
Senior List
- De-list Saad
+ 3 draft picks
+ Tom Curren Upgrade
= 40 primary list players

Rookie List
Shenton
Minchington
+ Mav Weller in Rookie Draft
+ Saad in Rookie Draft
= 4 rookie listed players

Saad Rookie Listed, Curren Upgraded, Weller Rookie Listed.


Sainter for life.

Curran has already been upgraded but you have to wait until the draft to make it official and I dont think you cant make Weller a rookie if we get him as a delisted FA so that means 2 now must go. Obviously Saad is one and TDL or Dunnel will be the other.

I'm not sure this is confirmed or the result of some weird twitter joke someone posted.

I've been off the air and missed seeing most of the season but I am surprised that Dunnel is being mentioned for delisting. (But not about TDL.)

I thought that Dunnel showed a bit in the few games that I have seen (seemed to read the game, was quick with his hands and usually had effective disposals to advantage, also seemed to put in the "hard" efforts). What happened to him this year? Did he not develop as hoped?

Lol, I think i'm going to regret following up that post that I pm'ed to you :wink:

though ironically enough I do like my collectibles

would have no issue cutting TDL though. It's just if they show even slight potential and we don't play them ahead of ppl that show little... doesn't sit well with me

Josh Bruce- rhymes with "Goose" so there you go.
Maverick & Goose back together.
