Pretty obvious choices, really. Seems a pretty sensible off-season of moves.

I counted 8 delistings or retirements, and only 7 new additions including Tom Mitchell and picks 43 & 61.
Does this mean we are eying off a Pre season pick?
Primmy, posted that after 2 hours of baseball training with the kids, so wasn't thinking straight. I meant which draft pick is used on him in the national draft. The third live pick (as in our second after Mitchell) or we draft 2 (plus Mtichell) and then pick Gordon.
Well deserved rookie elevation and looking forward to his next post game interview. Brings back memories of Sam Backo (Rugby league) from the 80's who on numerous occasions out bleeped the bleep without realising it in post match interviews. Not such a big thing these days compared to the late 80's.

Two hours of baseball training! Schtar!!!
Nipper will never do "that" again. He would have been given stick by everyone, including his family, and probably been made to pay fines, run laps, wash his mouth out, all that stuff.
If you've never jumped from one couch to the other to save yourself from lava then you didn't have a childhood
I wouldn't be surprised if we've got someone targeted in the PSD. There looks to be a number of decent players that are likely to nominate.
All the clubs are making tough calls this year, it seems. As has been mentioned, Seaby staying probably sealed Curry's fate. Seems superfluous with the sub rule to have 3 ruckmen on your list, let alone 4.
Glad Nipper got elevated. I'll be a bit disappointed though if Morton gets a chance to play ahead of him.
Many more senior delistings than I'd expected. I can see us shifting all veterans inside the list, using both live picks, elevating Nipper and using the rookie list to make up the difference. Kane Murphy's chances of being rookied just shot up, I reckon.

Officially on the Reid and Sumner bandwagon!
Bevo gone - Who we going to bag now? Must admit I was a fan most of the time... Bit like Ben Matthews, did a lot of things right and was bagged for a few wrong doings..
At 27, living in Sydney - GWS would be a good fit. IMO They would get a couple of good years out of him if needed to top up their list..
We will have to see what Sheeds has in mind... Lot of picks at a bargain price, lottery for the discards...

So that gives us 43 and 61 as live picks, 97 to promote Gordon, and still a free spot for the PSD.
